Honestly their content has always seemed mediocre at best - how many more "boss's wife", "naughty student" or "friend's hot mom" setups did anyone really care about anymore, let alone at the rate they were pumping them out? I guess NA didn't believe in ever trying something different or ceasing to shoot either fuglies, or just played out girls with 250,000 miles on them?
I've never been a member of their website, but in thinking back on when their DVD boxcovers appeared on new release lists, they were never compelling, given the tendency to employ talent that was either overexposed or otherwise boring.
The layoffs are no mystery after a quick glance at their site's "upcoming scenes" rundown - with only one or two exceptions, it's a pig parade. How do they expect their subscribers to actually be happy about crap like this?
