Surely the problem here is emblematic of the entire motion-picture industry. Streaming, attention competition, piracy - all these things are hurting the major mainstream studios. With porn, you can add to that the fact that there is still a social stigma with the physical purchase and (seemingly) a willing set of amateurs who are happy to produce for free. I've certainly wondered how any porn company can stream content at youtube-like levels and become profitable.
