However, there is a problem with who will end up being hurt. Porn webmasters are the ones who will be the victims; but the most deserving will probably not even be touched...the people who wrote software designed to steal the content in the first place. The people who put together the P2P networks like Napster. The people who use such networks.
Integrity still lives; but in constantly-lessening quantities...

P2P networks my ass!
Sober up and use them as another distribution point to drive traffic.
Right now the whole industry is suffering from the ill gotten gains of people like Xpix and others that ripped off the surfer till they were fucking blind.
And does it stop there? Nooooo...
Youve got people pimping out and serving as consultants for Acadia to make a dollar. And then others that spend 10K on a tour that backends to a content repository for 20+ sites. The same fucking content for all 20!
Is that enough? No then you have others burning out as fast as they can with prechecked cross sales and shady rebill practices.
Anytime a surfer gets a charge for something they are not expecting ....its a little more bad news for the industry. Say what you will but you all know the end of recurring billing is just over the horizon. And you can thank aforementioned people for it when it comes.
