This all became a critical issue for Internet porn when the rate of new customers entering the market slowed to well below the rate number that they were being driven away by 'unfriendly' biz practices. I can't say for sure where that tipping point was, but it's been on a downhill slope for quite some time. The difference now, is that the economy has made more people on the business side stop and take a serious look at things. Some have turned back to delivering a product with more value, but far more have turned to feeding on others in the industry rather than on customers. Every time I think maybe this industry is going to finally grow up and become more of a business I'm disappointed at the result. Still far too many in this biz that never had any experince in doing business. {heavy sigh}
