Most of the commerical porn on the net is run by very few companies with many many brands. It's hard to run your own porn business if you don't rely on a major company.
- bambax 4y agoIf you search for porn images on Google you get much more porn without ever leaving Google, than you could have dreamed on all of the specialized forums in 1997.
- AgentOrange1234 4y agoI’ve long wondered about their liability here with respect to age verification, consent, etc.
- compiler-guy 4y agoOnlyFans has its struggles, and is distasteful in many ways, but plenty of folks have their own businesses built on that.
- Dylan16807 4y agoSo, relying on a major company.
- compiler-guy 4y agoIt's a very rare business indeed that relies on no vendors, or only small vendors, if that is your standard.
- q-big 4y ago> that relies on no vendors, or only small vendors that relies on many small vendors and one big vendor
- Dylan16807 4y agoIt's more about whether you can substitute your vendors without deeply upending your business.
- armchairhacker 4y agoUnfortunately, I don't expect most porn stars to know how to get a static IP and set up a self-hosted website with payment processing.
- NoGravitas 4y agoPerhaps they should form a union, and let the union do that part.
- lmm 4y agoIt remains to be seen whether a sustainable business can be built on OnlyFans; it came very close to getting destroyed last year. And almost every other name in the sector is owned by MindGeek.
- Bubble_Pop_22 4y ago> It's hard to run your own porn business if you don't rely on a major company It's hard to run your own porn business even if you are a major company. People act extremely sensitive about their fetishes and think they are connoisseurs. but the reality is that 1000 porn movies in the 70s and 80s could satisfy jackoff habits of the whole global population for the forseeble future. The marginal value of more porn being produced is essentially zero OnlyFans is very present in culture and has a monstre evaluation, but if you look at revenues you'd be looking at the sum of some 300 big gas stations. Also OF is not a porn website it's an online GFE service.
- bliteben 4y agoWhen will we reach the optimal number of books or mainstream movies? How many programming languages is optimal? Marginal value lol
- compiler-guy 4y agoBy this standard we don’t need any additional media of any kind. No new movies, books, or tv shows. 99% of everything is crap. Most new movies or books are awful or entirely pedestrian and completely unoriginal to boot, and most don’t turn much of a profit. But people still make them for a huge variety of reasons.

- techdragon 4y agoWe have new movies? I thought they abandoned that in the quest for reliable profit, dooming us to endless live action remakes, and and endless stream of remakes of comic book blockbusters.
