I think this is very true. As this part of the porn industry evolves the other parts of the business are taking it seriously.

Playboy just bought Lensman and his company and knowledge for $12m, sounds a lot but think of it. The traffic knowledge and facility he has now teamed with Playboys porn knowledge.

More of the established porn companies will be coming in the future and some will find this market tough.

I thought that this was an exceedingly brillant move on the part of PB which has finally broken the tradition of a lot of dumb, slow, miss the boat, kind of moves for decades. For as big as they are, they should've been ten times bigger. Wonder if this is a trend?
