Doesn't Jack Schitt go by the name "Eric_IAFD" these days?
I do, and I'll answer to the best of my ability.
As Mark eluded to, we're just a bunch of average joe's who do this in our spare time. None of us, to my knowledge, are compensated as though it were some kind of job (nor do we expect to). I've been on 'the team' since late 2006, and my full-time vocation usually prevents me from spending alot of time doing much.
Our main outlet for additions could be any one of the following, but not limited to:
- Detailed review sites (CAVR, RogReviews, Snowman, ADT/Bono-One) - VoD sites (HotMovies, etc.) - Rent-by-Mail outfits (WantedList, BushDVD, etc.)
Some of the guys prefer the VoD sites, which we have accounts to; which I haven't yet adapted to. Den reviews alot of flicks in detail, and we generate alot of info for new movies from them, in addition to a host of other known smut reviewers. The snag with all this, IIRC, is that Den does not review current JM product (many reviewers don't); and many VoD or Rent-by-mail sites for a while did not offer titles by JMP (or for that matter Ana/Dia).
Unfortunately, the database is lacking in terms of representing those studios/distributors. We even have a 'gay editor' that covers releases & performers in that genre, so it saves the rest of us from watching it (lol). I enjoy watching & adding JM content, but chances are if I'm not viewing it at someone else's expense, I'm not viewing it at all. I don't have the funds to plunk down $15 bucks for a video I'll watch once for the sake of addition.
When practical, I personally try to send out a request for copies like the reviewers do. Unfortunately, I usually don't get an answer. Tony Malice is one of few parties who has bothered responding, however I haven't yet received any material (again, I don't expect to, it's purely for the sake of addition). We have outlets for viewing titles from certain studios. If JM isn't covered by them, I'm not going to spend my hard-earned money buying said titles. I rarely watch porn other than for the sake of addition to the site (and to rub one out occasionally). Might sounds like a mooch deal to some, but I genuinely like doing the data entry.
I haven't been real active most of this year, so I don't know the current 'who's who' of smut retailers, renters & VoD channels. There may be someone with whom Jeff Mike deals with for distribution, I'm just not aware of them at this point. I'd be glad to add any title thrown my way otherwise. Our editors are impartial, we don't do reviews - we only link to those done by others. So outside of someone's preference to not watch an available flick, there isn't a reason something shouldn't get added. I'll watch anything for the sake of completeness; even duplicate titles which are already on the site, but lacking in details.
Long story short, Malice has a list of movies that I've been wanting to add to the database for at least 3 months now. He's a busy man I'm sure, and if he gets them to me, great. If not, life goes on. For instance, I took notice back in August that we were missing Tough Love #10 and #12-14. I'm not up-to-date on what the latest Gag Factor is, Zen, but I see the last one we did was #25; and even that we don't have much detail for other than the list of skullfucked whores.
Just my $.02, hope it helps. I don't speak for IAFD.com or any of my cohorts, just keep in mind this is hobby for us, not a fucking job.
