Frankly I think it makes no sense to say there are too many shows. There are as many shows as sponsors and webmaster wish to support.

The really funny part of what you just said is the XBiz just added a NEW show and yet you say they are doing it to REDUCE the number of shows?

The only show Alec Helmy is trying to weed out is run by AVN.

Nowhere Did I say, or even imply, that Helmy will do the weeding, always have. My concern is how long can the pace be kept up, the avarege webmaster cant afford to take the time, or foot the expenses for a show every 2 weeks. There is just not enough return on the investment.
If you care to read the next Issue of The FUBAR TImes, there is an article in there addressing this situation. This was written apx 3 months ago, based on what I hear around the shows. It has nothing to do with 2 media groups being in competition.
