congrats Scott, you're a pioneer :)

Congrats to him. However, the award is limited to only supersonic members, so Scott will have to join with their 1 million dollar special supersonic membership, otherwise he isn't covered :)

lawlz that should be a fun speech to watch.

Re: AEBN's Scott Coffman Named FSC's Man of the Year
 

Interesting you guys think this is well deserved... many in the DVD side are not happy with a president of a VOD company and the guy that launched PornoTube getting an award like this.

I will be there on Saturday to hear his speech. I am interested in hearing what he will say about the state of the industry and the role AEBN will play in the future of it.

And I am not taking sides in this... its just interesting to see the different points of view.

And I won't get into tube sites either (as they are a mixed blessing, not one-sided IMHO), but for DVD folks NOT to do VOD -- or to be against VOD -- is like when movie studios got pissed at the other movie studios who first embaissed VCR over theatres - Dumb!

Or when the music industry were once against audio tape cassettes. Or as bad as Viacom being against Internet streaming. It's another vehicle for money, damn it!!

The thing is, I can excuse mainstream for being morons. I can NOT excuse porn people for not seeing another way to make money. That's supposed to be what they excel at!!!

Re: AEBN's Scott Coffman Named FSC's Man of the Year
 

I think everyone is going to be interested in what he has to say.

Consumers evolve and change.

If anyone here would like to talk to me on the board or offline about ANYTHING concerning AEBN please feel free.

Ive been directly invovled with the future direction of the company and I can tell you that as a webmaster I am excited about where we are going in just a few weeks.

You can reach me of course here on Oprano , Gonzo@aebn.net or voice at 1-800-628-0241 x252.

Id be happy to discuss our new webmaster tools, future products or how I can help you personally make more money with our products.

Hmm is anyone else besides me as amused as I am by the irony of Gonzo giving an announcement about the FSC?

Re: AEBN's Scott Coffman Named FSC's Man of the Year
 

I still think they are worthless.

Re: AEBN's Scott Coffman Named FSC's Man of the Year

Though I understand why you posted it...

Re: AEBN's Scott Coffman Named FSC's Man of the Year
