I actually think there is some validity to the article. Adult has done a lot in the past as far as embracing technological advances for the advancement of the industry as a whole, but it has seemed to slow down (with a few exceptions). Sadly, there has seemed to be significant growth in adopting techno-strategies that are primarily detrimental to the industry as a whole (pre-checks, anyone?).
As technology has grown at an exponential rate, however, there has been a massive slow down on our side to embrace and move forward as things shift in the marketplace. Mainstream has a major advantage over us here: share-holders and VC push for innovation in a way we don't because haven't got access to the outside funds. It's much more comfortable to do what has worked instead of looking to what

I have a lot of ideas that I would love to see implemented to harness shifts in technology and monetise the content in ways that haven't been embraced yet. Don't be shocked when you start seeing AEBN do new and completely different things
