porn is not by any means dying ....its simply in a transitional phase....it needs to figure out where its going toward on many different levels.




Here's the deal...

This so-called 'transitional phase' has been going on since the first porn clip hit the Internet in 1999. The problem is that pornographers, in general, equate internet distribution to physical distribution - thinking that more is better.

Pornographers go around and sign up for every single VOD provider they can get their hands on thinnking that each one will reach geometrically more customers, increasing their sales exponentially. In fact, the multiple distributors are fighting for the limited supply of viewers with the same content. Fighting for the same viewer with the same clip has driven down the value of the clip - to the point where it has zero worth in many cases.

Look at the tube sites. They are all run by VOD distributors, who are using different studios scenes FOR FREE to attempt to lure the viewer into paid programming. As a consumer, why would you pay for something that you can get for free??? You wouldn't.

Until the studios step in and decide to distribute their own content online, the industry will remain in a 'transitional state' until it collapses.
