Thanks.

Bump for you

bump :thumbsup

NOTE the changes please.

No one will be admitted that isn't a content producer. No one.

Sorry.

There will be opportunity a little further on in the process where we will introduce other elements of the community for input and effect. Affils, Press, other organizations, etc.

Thanks.

bumping all day everyday till the meeting.

yess... fight piracy

Very nice airek good work, We will try to make it out there for this

What is this round table supposed to accomplish exactly?

I'm all about not having our adult content uploaded or shared for free, but I'm not sure what this meeting is supposed to do. Sure you said it in the image/flyer but what is the adult industry or online adult industry going to do that's different than the MPAA and such? Especially to places like the pirate bay that aren't even in the U.S.? It just sounds like it'll cause drama in our industry, cost companies money to get involved, and nothing positive will happen regarding protecting the rights of our content. Don't think I'm an asshole for posting this, I'm just curious on how this is going to be any different than other organizations.

You're going to come up with solutions to stop our content from being pirated? Or create a list of companies to boycott that appear (or promoted) on pirating sites? Or personally take on some torrent sites?

Movie studios lose a lot and they're having problems combating the issue and I think they have more money than the adult industry that will be getting involved in this.

big BUMP for you!!!!

Good stuff, too bad I won't be able to make to the other coast this time...

By the way I think that one of the best ways to help out is to not promote companies that are funding the piracy sites or convincing those sites to stop allowing those sites in as affiliates. It does make the adult industry look worse, it's not helping other affiliate companies, and those sites being promoted on the torrent sites seem to want to make some quick cash... as much and as fast as possible before they close shop. That income for them won't last forever and it just hurts the rest of us.

This is part of my solution to some of the problems, is to disassociate with those who do associate.

Making a stand takes a lot of people to step up, so it's going to get interesting to say the least.

And for the 30 or so people who have asked me on ICQ no I will not be in attendance for this meeting.

But, I hear Airek is going to give a handjob to the best question asked during the roundtable, so be sure to come prepared.

employee's of content /distribution companys allowed?

Here's a bizzump for you - I would so love the be there to give/get some more ideas.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

looks good :)

the goal is to get the decision makers there, which in most cases we are doing. if the decision maker cannot make it, then someone in upper management may attend. this is a serious subject and not some dog and pony seminar. if we don't have the decision makers present, it wont be as effective.

in any case worth to bump

if anyone is wondering why it is studios, producers, and distributors, its because they are the ones with the skin in the game. we don't want the meeting sidetracked into someone's technology solution, or someone's opinion that may be motivated by ulterior motives,(say it isn't so airek, not in adult), or the many other aspects and levels of involvement that issue spans. this is pandora's box and we know it. we would rather deal with it one piece at a time. we know that other people's opinions are valid and needed. we want others involved as this is an industry problem. the decision has been made to just let the producers of adult content speak together as a sector of the industry. there are going to plenty of opportunities for the other sectors to work together with the content producers to help control piracy a little. we all know that its not going to stop, but there are several things that can be done to start twarting it a little.

not tryin to bust balls but why are you going airek??

arnt you just a pr guy?

Congratulations on your hard work.

nah, you aren't busting my balls.

i'm a clown.


oh, and a cheerleader.

:1orglaugh

but can i get an answer?
what are you representing at this meeting???

the bro's? ;)

i'm confused? shane's world is a studio, i am upper level management and the one setting all this up and you think i wouldn't be there?

what are you getting at?

The advantage we have over movie studios, we can go after advertisers. They wont because they all need each other. Paramount hits walmart with a lawsuit, walmart never carries their movies again. Once again we shall be the innovators, one judgment and the game will change so radically for mainstream as well as adult.

tell you what for no one thinking anything like this is going to work, our phones are freaking melting over here.

anti piracy groups from autralia attending
anti piracy groups from holland attending
the l.a. times calling for stories
the san fernando business journal calling for stories
san diego union tribune
magazines
publicists
tech companies.
studios off the hook about how they are sick of this and attending

they're all hearing about it. i may need to get a bigger room.

:1orglaugh

this is insane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great stuff. I'm in.

I'll be there...hell I could walk there from my house.

bump I will be there most likely with a few others from Red Light.... See you then I will rsvp over the weekend.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

yah, you could almost hear the meeting take place if you opened your front windows.

sorry i didn't make it to the party wed night man. conked out after the gym and didn't hear the phone. looks like a lot of snizz was there and the sausage was super minimal.

:thumbsup

But this isn't about brick and mortar business. Why doesn't Paramount go after AFF (and others) then?

i'm sure sitting around and doing nothing will accomplish much more than actually trying to do something.

why hype it up on the boards like this if general population is not invited??

kinda like rubbing it into peoples faces " i can go but you cant na na na na na "....

but whatever good luck with your endover's

bump for A1R3K:upsidedow

no need for me to explain. there is a psychological reason for everything, and its NOT to neener neeener people. no need for me to explain why i am doing what i am doing. just remember what i told you. everything i do is calculated. thanks for the well wishes.

later everyone, its the weekend.

gonna go chill.

peace.

have a good weekend everyone.

Bump for progress... I will be present representing our crew with our concerns and interests.

I guess you missed the part about the handjobs

At least it's a step in the right direction,many consider it a cost of doing business and really need to help stop it instead..it's too massive of a problem to be able to control it unfortunately

I hear they just landed madawgz as the keynote speaker:)
