Quote:

Several companies went condom-only, including Video Team, Seymore Butts and Vivid. All three of those are back to condom-optional, and it wasn't because they stopped caring. Their sales definitely had gone down, and Christian Mann who owns Video Team publicly stated that he was disappointed that was the case.



Christian Mann also said that he eventually realized that he wasn't protecting the performers. They would use condoms on his set, and then work for other producers and not use condoms. So he was losing sales and the performers weren't any safer.
