I don't think the answer is to keep it inhouse. if the enduser has to jump from Vivid, to Club Jenna, to JM, they are going to be discouraged from making a purchase. Maybe if you want to talk about a Naughty America format, but lets not get sidetracked. The industry can prosper if it uses Gamelink or Empire as a central clearing house and moves as much product as it can.
Changing sites is (and should be) like changing channels on the TV...my point is, certain companies can afford to take it in house because they have the material that will bring in the audience. Want to see Sunny Leone doing b/g? then you have to go to Vivid, because they're the only ones who have it.
As I've said previously, if producers utilise the web and VOD correctly, they have the ultimate R&D tool at their fingertips.
It might make financial sense to pay Amy Ried $25,000 to do her first interracial scene, it might make even better sense to pay Aria Giovanni or Jana Cova $100,000 to do their first b/g...VOD should theoretically help usher in a more meritocratic age wherein those who bring in the big dollars get the big dollars, and those who don't, don't. I think the implications this will have on the quality of the talent pool will be immense and extremely beneficial to the quality of the product.
