I find it worth watching. There are quite a few points about it that are interesting.

I don't feel that it relates to me in anyway for a number of reasons-

1. He was selling DVD's and that was the initial step the government used to bust him. As with most cases, they buy the dvd's or vhs's and have them shipped to a location they want to prosecute in. I have never sold or offered DVD or any other hard copy of the material I provide. I am strictly internet based.

2. His content was WAY over the line... even for most other producers. One of the main scenes they convicted him on showed the model clearly in distress and asking to stop shooting. She was forced to vomit and choke and was pissed on etc. It was beyond acting. In my content, as you know, the models are clearly having fun and enjoying themselves. There is a huge difference.

3. he hosted his content in Tampa on Tampa based servers.... Bad move there all around. This is why they where able to get the community standards issue push on the internet based content. My servers are located in San Francisco with Reliable hosting. But, even so, I'm looking into having them switched to a Netherlands based server.

There is quite a bit more to the Max case, and only time will tell how this plays out with is appeal etc. It's something that all usa web masters are keeping a close eye on or should be keeping a close eye on.
