Here's the article...

The question is, how much of that growth will be dominated by the big industry players, and how much by the seething masses of noooobs like me?

If this article is using accurate numbers then where are the billions that Visa will lose annually, that some people have spoken of, if all webmasters in the adult business, would simply stop using Visa? 230 million or even 400 million is a drop in the bucket for Visa.

230 million dollars a year, that's it?

There are at least 10 people in this industry who would have you believe that they alone make more than that. Interesting.

That's just the public companies who have to report, it doesn't take into account anyone who's not listed. Of which there are hundreds of thousands

Why?

Are you saying none of the webmaster programs have a revenue above 150 million USD per year?

there are 10 companies in the business online that do over 100 million a year

I think that article after the Florida show had it pegged at 10 Billion.

The fact is.. no one knows. It's like the fucking analyst with their pin-striped suits on CNBC predicting the future of stocks. Fuckers use a magic 8-ball.

I have read articles claiming 15 billion, but that was for all adult entertainment, brick and mortar businesses, and online porn. I think you are right, it is all speculation.
