Is the porn industry DOOMED? (page 2)

pat362 Senior Member 10082 Posts 3/10	Posted - Feb 12 2017 : 12:47PM ^To begin with the problem facing the porn industry isn't that you don't get value for your money because you clearly do with almost every website. In what other industry can you get hundreds of videos for 20$? Not that long ago you could only get one dvd (which is basically 4 videos) for 20$. Now you can get hundreds if not thousands of videos for 20$ and that's what I call value for money. Here's what I see as the industries biggest problem. So using your analogy. It's not that the industry doesn't offer various kinds of whiskeys from the less expensive blended versions to the more expensive single malt versions. It's that you can currently get them all for free. That's why I think that as long as there are sites offering free porn than less and less people will be willing to fork over even a measly 20$ for the production of new porn. [Link]

fanofman Senior Member 2053 Posts 9/15	Posted - Feb 12 2017 : 1:19PM The problem is the tube site. No matter what company you are, you can guarantee your scene will be on a tube site within 30 minutes of release. You can get 30K-50K views of a popular scene within 24 hours of release. Just think how much money that producer is losing when 50K people have watched your scene for free versus paying for it. I don't know how/why anyone stays in this business. They need to somehow get in bed with the tube sites to get at a few dollars per view. [Link]

Essentially an attempt to put competition out of business (which is devastating to an industry like porn). [Link]

Think about it -- An 18-year old today doesn't remember life before Napster or iTunes, or when a phone was just to make calls, and probably never set foot in a Tower Records.

Smiler Grogan All-Star Member the war cry 14790 Posts 1/08	Posted - Feb 13 2017 : 2:28AM ^What I'm trying to say is, kids today experience everything through their phones and tablets. Ownership of physical media is something they do only when necessary or when they really LOVE a certain artist. Or when there's no choice -- Taylor Swift and Adele sold tons of their most recent physical cds because they weren't available on streaming. Why weren't they victims of piracy? Because their fans love them. But there's only certain artists that get that kind of devotion. There are some porn fans with that type of devotion towards certain girls. But I'd wager many of them are still apt to go to the tubes. [Link]
whatsatelephonebill Senior Member 2935 Posts 10/11	Posted - Feb 13 2017 : 4:08AM ^ Which is why performers are figuring out more and more ways to get those fans to be able to pay them directly. From cam shows to custom videos to selling merch to convention appearances to private snapchats to services like SextPanther and Dream Lover. I've said this before, but we will probably get to the point where most companies aren't making money purely off production (at best, they'll be breaking even because there will always be some people that are willing to pay for it), and the money will be made in ancillary ways and the videos will basically serve as advertisements for other things. And I don't mean something like product placement so much as the performers will shoot for mainstream companies to get more people to watch their cam shows, the mainstream companies will sign the performers up to do something like using their own streaming platform or their own direct-to-fans service (as a simple example, the Dream Lover is owned by the same people that own Naughty America). The mainstream companies that don't figure out how to diversify themselves are the ones that will be left behind. [Link]
cormac Senior Member 1093 Posts 1/14	Posted - Feb 13 2017 : 6:30AM ^^ And yet physical media - cds, dvds, books remain extremely profitable. I keep having to point this out. Even my eldest son has started a cd collection, not because he can't find the songs digitally but because, like millions of others, he likes to have something he can look at and touch. He and his friends also read books and own dvds. The digital age has not obliterated the physical age and probably won't do so in the foreseeable future. [Link]
LPee23 All-Star Member Better to be pissed on, than to be pissed off. 248 Posts 1/15	Posted - Feb 13 2017 : 10:14AM The porn industry is not doomed, but times will keep changing, just as they always have. The fact that it survives under the current onslaught of free porn is evidence of its overall resilience, even though many individual companies have gone under. The main problem is the ease of accessing free porn. It is hard to compete against free. For the light porn user, who just wants to watch porn with as few clicks as possible and without getting out the credit card, wants to get off in 20 min or less and move on, and has no interest in saving content, tubes are they way they go. The tube model of marketing is terrible for the industry, it needs to change, and I believe that someday it will. Edited by - LPee23 on 2/13/2017 10:15:05 AM [Link]

LCF All-Star Member Non Prevalebunt! 10364 Posts 1/05	Posted - Feb 19 2017 : 10:31AM One issue that affected the industry and still does, would be some hidden charges they put when you sign up to regular sites, they may sign you up for more than one site, apply recurrent charges when you thought they weren't, put obstacles to cancel your membership , impossible even in some cases especially for non English speaqker subscribers, plus , last but not least , the past habit to use cookies to advertise on your SHARED computer , creating some very discomfortable situations at home or at work, not to mention if your children use your computer for resereaches for school and there they go , porn sites banners asking you to join them. Such total disregard to the problems their customer may experience was another thing who made people run away from legit sites.Some sites still put some hidden subscriptions when you join them Once, for each customer running away there was another joining, today each customer lost takes down many others when he reaches a porn community and spreads his complaints.

pat362 Senior Member 10082 Posts 3/10	Posted - Feb 19 2017 : 2:03PM ^The semi-good news is that many sites have learned from their mistake and aren't blatantly trying to sell you an extra memberships but we aren't out of the woods just yet. Most join pages still have an already clicked box for a third party site that you need to unclick or suffer the consequences but many have the box already unclicked and therefore you have to confirm the extra purchase. I have heard some negative comments regarding some of the Mindgeek owned sites but they all seem to pale when compared to Bangbros. I have heard way too many horror stories of people clicking on a site/link and winding up with a membership they never wanted and having a hard time cancelling it. There is of course something most Americans never think about and it's called "Regional Pricing". While Americans can join almost any site and the price is always in US dollars. The same can't be said for other Countries and this is especially true of Europeans Countries. While you and I can join a site advertising a price of 20$ US. Someone in Europe will instead see the price as 20Euros. [Link]
LPee23 All-Star Member Better to be pissed on, than to be pissed off. 248 Posts 1/15	Posted - Feb 19 2017 : 5:22PM ^^ I agree with pat362. It is very uncommon nowadays to encounter a site that bills you fraudulently, but customers are still very worried about this. Cross-sells, either pre-checked or not, are much more common, so you just have to look out for them when signing up. As for cookies, I can't recall a site that does not use them, at least for the purposes of tracking and authenticating you in the member's area. They are pretty ubiquitous and not going anywhere. Your best bet is to use No Script or a similar browser add on to block non-essential cookies, and also to delete your cookies and browser history periodically. [Link]
yourmomma Member 279 Posts 10/14	Posted - Feb 19 2017 : 10:35PM will porn, as it is now, survive? no. but 20 years ago, porn was different than it is now. and 20 years before that, it was different. It went from something you had to go to a movie theater to view, to VHS to DVD to websites... it evolves. Many sites have already evolved because of tube sites. Porn will evolve again. The only thing that will kill porn off completely is if people stop masturbating. I don't see that happening as long as people have genitals and touching said genitals is pleasurable. [Link]
wmike1 Member 181 Posts 12/06	Posted - Feb 20 2017 : 8:57AM Of course porn company's are slowly dying off, and its going to the individual stars, I think there will be 1 company that goes to strictly live shows, which will be harder to pirate, then more and more company's will follow their lead, and that will be the new future [Link]

pat362 Senior Member 10082 Posts 3/10	Posted - Jun 1 2017 : 6:19PM ^^I agree with everything you wrote but for me the problem isn't that the porn being produced is not as good as most people would like it to be because it could. The problem is that people can see that "sub-par" porn for free and that's why they don't pay for it. That means less money going into the pockets of porn producers who in turn are not able to invest any back into making better porn. In fact there is absolutely no incentive for any porn producer to make better porn because it will get stolen the minute it gets released and that will mean even less profit for them.

Click to expand Erm, urologists wouldn't know, since urology is "the scientific, clinical, and especially surgical aspects of the study of the urine and the genitourinary tract in health and disease." I'm sure that all a urologist could, and would do is tell you that there didn't appear to be an underlying physical cause for your erectile dysfunction. Then she'd send you off to see some other specialist. 'Porn induced erectile dysfunction' is actually masturbation-induced erectile dysfunction, and it is only dysfunctional in the sense that your brain has been trained to expect A, and it is not happy getting B, instead. That is to say, not only does sexual intercourse feel different from masturbation, but it requires an entirely different mental interaction. However, the 'cure' to your problem is easy enough - simply refrain from masturbating. Whether or not you continue to watch porn is irrelevant. Soon enough, your sex life will be good as new. Or, as bad as always, depending on your skills in the bedroom, and when I say 'skills', I don't just mean physical ability. Edited by - hardware on 6/2/2017 10:21:42 AM [Link]

Stickypickle Member 10 Posts 6/17	Posted - Jun 2 2017 : 2:44PM The free "tube sites" are what got me back into porn and why I recently joined this site. For me, I bought some DVDs from Andrew Blake, and was also into Kobe Tai and Asia Carrera, so bought into their DVDs; but eventually had to give all my "stuff" away. Over the years I transitioned from Strip Clubs to P4P, because frankly I got tired of the tease. I'm not paying if I can't participate or interact in some way. Recently the amateurs sites like Swap Smut, and Black on White, or just Google any kind of amature sex video and I can see just about anything for free at low quality resolution. I joined this adult talk site because as I was searching for my favorite stars, Ange Venus, and Heidi Ho, I saw forums where fans and porn insiders were discussing and sharing info. Don't know how many consumers are like me, but I suspect there are a lot of us that enjoy interacting with people of porn. I would have no problem paying for access to a porn star that I liked. So maybe that's where the future dollars will go. As far as porn scenes; I'd rather watch some low quality, limited camera angles, or iPhone vid of people actually getting it on and enjoying it rather than some of the pristine pro videos with actors.

I also suggest you consider the difference between someone with "compulsive sexual behavior" and "porn addict," as one of those articles conflates the two. Did you read the linked Cambridge study? It's rather different from the article's summary when you separate out the terms. Also, the dopamine argument has been debunked several times as gravely misleading. It sounds scary, though, when attached to porn so people find it compelling. I'm guessing we would find it less compelling to argue that our brains light up like crack addicts when we see cookies or a new episode of Project Runway. [Link]

And another from 2016: Perceived Addiction to Internet Pornography among Religious Believers and Nonbelievers.

Gore Gore Girl Doctor of the Erotic Arts 7238 Posts 1/09	Posted - Jun 2 2017 : 4:55PM ^ Thanks for at least providing credible sources. I will read the journal articles more carefully when I have time--the first one seems interesting. The Kinsey study appears to be about something bigger than "porn causes ED." It appears to be about compulsive sexual behaviours not watching porn. But again, I need to read it more carefully. The third link is pretty explicit about their results: "The rates of organic causes of erectile dysfunction in this age cohort are extremely low, so the increase in erectile dysfunction that we have seen over time for this group needs to be explained," Christman said. "We believe that pornography use may be one piece to that puzzle. Our data does not suggest that it is the only explanation, however." As for testimonials, yes there are plenty. This corresponds with the arguments of the articles I linked. [Link]
LCF All-Star Member Non Prevalebunt! 10364 Posts 1/05	Posted - Jun 2 2017 : 5:55PM Sexual dysfunction and erectyle dysfunction aren't the same, the first one could be psychological while the second is mostly biochemichal , for example a drunk man might have temporary erectyle dysfunctions Also there's a number of semi-benign diseases whose long term effects are unknown , nobody is overly concerned when he gets a sore cold even though it's incurable , it's infective , it's a virus and when trasmigrates to different organs can be very nasty , for reasons unknown people gets concerned only when it reaches the genitals and is recognized with its scientific name of herpes (either simplex or genitalis) Men aren't concerned about clamidya which is a problem for our female population when a male is infected most likely doesn't even get aware of that , though it's unlikely that such a disease stays dormant forever or does nothing to the body and what about the PFCs (Fluorocarbon compounds) whose effect are only studied recently? Its a completely manmade strong compound non-existent in nature where is no organic reaction able to dismantle it , we're absorbing it in the last 50 years , the authorities keep downing the limit of tolerance for human beings even though it was and probably still is one of the most commonly used material for containers for food (there's an international protocol limiting its use but some Countries didn't sign it , namely China from which half the world buys chep containers and plastic bags for food When you do some studies about something on a scale as massive scale as porn consuming , then you have to rule out everything else who has a even more massive diffusion, if you don't you won't be able to know what of all three possible causes are actually the real culprit of a problem besides why I see something biased on those studies ? why I only see problems with men but not women? That would have been interesting? Is there an actual effect on the brain ? If so are women hit by it? is the percentage similar to that of male population? is there a difference? Is the sexual dysfunction mutually enhanced if both members of a couple are porn consumers? Is there a proportion on the damage? What is the amount of porn one could watch to stay safe? What is the usage of porn or the temporal extention of its use that induces addiction? one hour per week ? 2? One per day? How is that this addiction doesn't require a more massive dosage as time passes while using it? Is there any comparison of porn consumption with the kind of porn watched? For example those who watch BDSM only have the same problems of those who watch only anal? Is there a difference between straight and gay consumers? Is there a difference with mostly active gays and mostly passive gays? In nature anything that exists with an actual effect can be measured , those question would provide the means to actually measure and study a porn addiction. and BTW I have seen that picture or one very similar to that about those who play videogames. And I was wandering did they take into account wheter or not their specimens played videogames? If so, what kind of videogames? And so on and on Edited by - LCF on 6/2/2017 6:06:33 PM [Link]

When the problem is in the head and not the pants, however, oftentimes ED medications won't work. Forums online team with thousands of young men who are suffering from PIED. Urologist and Director of Men's Health Boston, Dr. Abraham Morgentaler, is worried about the affect instant access to a deluge of online pornography is having on us as sexual beings. "I see young men coming in who are really confused about what normal is because all they know about sex is what they've seen on porn," Dr. Morgentaler said in a recent interview. In the Victorian age, Dr. Morgentaler points out, men swooned over seeing an ankle. In the 60's it was the mini-skirt. But today there are no surprises. And we all have access to any kind of porn we want at any time. The good doctor went on to say, "I think that the concern is what porn has figured out is what really works for the brain of the guys. It's the maximum stimulus." The porn industry has gotten very good at delivering its product, perhaps too good. This ever-prevalent access has changed the psychology of some guys but also their biochemistry. Dopamine levels have changed drastically. The newest research just coming out of Cambridge University likens the brains of excessive porn watchers to alcoholics and those addicted to drugs. Those who are overstimulated by online porn then have trouble being aroused by real, offline sex. Symptoms of PIED include Irritability, anxiety, feelings of insecurity, depression, and physical problems such as lack of appetite and insomnia can also occur. In extreme instances sufferers may have suicidal thoughts thinking they'll never have an erection again, or that they broke themselves. Some unscrupulous doctors will prescribe medication and tell their patients that it's performance anxiety they're suffering from.

tz9yes New Member 5 Posts 6/17	Posted - Jun 4 2017 : 2:04AM Porn will change, but it will not go away. There is too much demand, and too much money to be made. Archaeologists have found "porn" in Egypt that dates back several thousand years. I don't think it is going anywhere. Virtual Reality, and then eventually Augmented Reality will be the future of porn, in my opinion. But, no. The industry is in no way "doomed." [Link]

I also suggest you consider the difference between someone with "compulsive sexual behavior" and "porn addict," as one of those articles conflates the two. Did you read the linked Cambridge study? It's rather different from the article's summary when you separate out the terms. Also, the dopamine argument has been debunked several times as gravely misleading. It sounds scary, though, when attached to porn so people find it compelling. I'm guessing we would find it less compelling to argue that our brains light up like crack addicts when we see cookies or a new episode of Project Runway.

Flash Golden Age Classic 11018 Posts 5/01	Posted - Jun 4 2017 : 7:40PM Yes, that is a great scientific article. A study of x amount of people found that many suffered.... Many is very scientific. And that was only on internet porn so porn on DVD and Blu-ray must be fine. My study of a sidewalk found that out of x amount of people many tripped over their own feet. Therefore feet are dangerous and should be removed. Just as scientific. [Link]
