sorry mike, wasn't meaning to drag you into it by asking you that question, i listed names off the top of my head ... I wasn't suggesting that you were jumping to anyone's defense, just used your name as you were close by & i know you aren't an example of the 'norm' of the industry. (in many ways
)
there's not much point continuing with this if Joe doesn't want to discuss it ... and how on earth can business facts compete with someone who provides his friends the high flying world of drugs and pornstars!!
I will summarize with the following, a simple point that effects anyone who promotes privatefriends.com ...
Most of the content is stolen, there is no 2257 documentation on file at joe's company for any of the models inside the site, and many on the front of the site. The models whose photos have been used without permission will probably never do anything about it, but the company that does have the information on file for the content in question has 2257 documentation AND the resale rights.
My suggestion to them was to set up a content plugin and lease it to paysite owners, or even better, give it all away to tgp webmasters or post it on newsgroups ...
Either way, if you promote privatefriends.com, good luck!
