Tubes now blamed for fall of adult dvd rentals

There's another thing that is hurting sales, bookstore owners are ripping the original DVD's, re-printing the jackets, shrink wrapping them and putting them on the shelves as new. Often times lowering the price a few bucks to also generate sales, even nickel and dime hustlers are moving bootlegs at about $5 a pop or so.

Another thing that I've seen and doesn't help, is some porn stars will actually promote their movies and send fans to tubes that are featuring their scenes. So it's a combination of things, but the downside that I see is many younger folks are finding the free porn and tube sites to be the norm.
