porn is a good case study for adapt or die

heres the porn model

producer uses his own money to create his video, duplicate it etc

he then gives it to a manufacturer for 70% of the gross sales to the distributor

the manufacteror sells it to a distributer

the distributer sells it to the retailer

the retailer sells it to the customer at a price around 20 - 30 bucks

How could this model NOT fail? And who really gets the shaft...the producer because the manufacturer has no real incentive to collect on the producers behalf so distributors will go 180 or more days past due. I had Metro Home Video go 270+ days past due on an 8K invoice....then they bounced 3 three checks. took me a year to get paid by the manufacturer
