The thing that the surfers don't seem to understand is why would businesses spend the money making the content if they aren't making a profit back.

Maybe we as an online industry(not just adult) need to spend more effort educating surfers about how business works.

If Avatar didn't make a gadzillion dollars, do you really think that they would go spend $250 million more per episode to make additional movies.

Wouldn't work. Most people "understand", they just don't "care". They simply want it for free and if we all go bankrupt, well there is already more porn available than any human can look at in a lifetime, so why worry if no one produces it anymore?

Tell him the free porn on the net is like the free bread at restaurants. Nice, but not the main meal.
