US porn revenue exceeds the combined revenues of ABC, CBS, and NBC. |
Again, these statistics were for 2005-2006, but I don't doubt that the basics may still hold true, although numbers might be larger now.
Thank you for the information.
Frankly, I would suspect the numbers would be lower today - when every Tom, Dick, and Jane record themselves doing the horizontal mambo and put it on the Internet, why pay? My gut feeling is that commercial porn may be going the way of the print newspaper, and for much the same reasons. Also, I’m not sure if adult toys and strip clubs should be considered porn - arguably prurient, but not necessarily porn.
I may have more to say once I visit the site - I’m very curious about the methodology used to arrive at those numbers.
