FYI: The technology used to edit out the shotguns is also the one Anita's suggested for editing out condoms too.

NA can claim its the slow economy, but they've spent some ridiculous money on a number of different projects that were canceled midway through or had no way of making a reasonable return on investment: NA the Game, The Naughty American, their whole gay productions that fizzled out with a separate membership and affiliate system from their straight sites, spending all that money flying to England to film with British talent then having to lie about it when people recognized some of the UK backdrops as I guess they were afraid of legal repercussions or something.
I can't fault for them for trying something new, but they way over-expanded the last few years to a level that had to hit their profits. If they were serious about these cuts they should have done them a year ago IMO before the whole economy took this giant shit.
And don't forget they have a full floor in an office building and those giant AVN booths. From the sound of it those days are over.
