Mike South is not a bad guy, as pornographers go. He cut his teeth shooting southern amateur girls in the Atlanta area as well as shooting "Southern Bukkake". This stuff goes way back and dates me and Mike, but in the 90's his stuff found on the web was about as good as you could find online.

He tends to take the whores side in most squabbles but that's to be expected from a Southerner. This is what causes his problems with Max Hardcore, Rob Black et al.

Yes he is in Atlanta and therefore not hardwired into porn valley but if a person doesn't have a healthy ego and an overinflated sense of self-worth who in the fuck wants to read what they write anyway.

He's middle-aged, likes saltwater fishing, is a Southerner and films and fucks younger women. What's not to like?

His site is also one of the first I know of to offer scenes in hi-def ala carte at a reasonable price. If more porners had implemented this model sooner they might not be begging for free passes to AVN just now. iTunes sells single songs for .99 cents apiece and makes a mint.
