2. Why don't the porn companies try harder to fight back against pirates.




I always assumed that most porn companies felt uncomfortable about bringing their works into a court of law even if the issue at hand concerns a copyright violation.




Have you priced copyright lawyers? Most decent ones want a $15 or $20K retainer and won't look at a case with less than a $100K settlement.

Do the math. What does the average adult movie cost to produce and how much does it gross during it's few weeks of life?

It has nothing to do with feeling "uncomfortable" being in court discussing porn. It has to do with diminishing returns.
Usually, I would imagine, it's just not worth the effort.
Especially if you haven't registered your film for copyright, which most porn producers don't take the time and $ to do. This limits what you can recover in court only to your actual damages, no punitive awards.
