People will always pay money for sex, be it real or virtual, but it's the method of delivery that changes.

I wouldn't be too quick to count that gold yet.
The "other side" of the industry has a huge stockpile of content. They also have a completely different idea of it's value, compared to "internet Pioneers."
When the "old boys" are dumping DVDs at less than $1 wholesale, you realize they have devalued that content to the point of giving it away as an advertising method. Anyone able to show them a way to make any level of income from it will have as much content as they can possibly handle.
The more modern stuff, in many cases, is more "extreme." And I agree with you there on that having a different value from the old '' 'nilla" stuff from the 80's and early 90's. But there is an awful lot of that content out there, just waiting to be recycled.
Or, adapted for new uses........
