But ultimately it's not so easy to make mainstream porn these days, mostly due to economic reasons. Predominantly the change in the porn market (a shift towards a "content creator" economy through personal platforms engaging directly with fans, without the need for a mainstream studio and all the headaches that go with it), LP has lost a number of its biggest stars to OF for example, Kristy Black and Jolee Love the most notable.
Add to this the increasingly unfavorable economic conditions affecting the global economy - big inflation over the last few years, the cost of everything increasing (and naturally girls' fees as well), but many porn fans not necessarily being willing to pay a lot more for their porn.
All of this just means mainstream studios need to find new ways to survive, which means lower outlay on scenes and reduced production, but the reality is mainstream porn will never be as big as it used to be.

Ultimately, the studios and the people still have to find a financial model that works for them, and can make a decent profit.

Gonzo shut down but is not Luis who manage Yummy studio? is just that he took the bussiness to south america on, i guess, the cost are lower but has a new bunch of guys and, more interesting, of new girls on is exploring new stuff as puking and food play.
Giorgio delegated the managment to Andrew who clearly reduced the number of releases per week.
Yummy, Mambo and EKS has a similar activity, also natasha still shooting content, as before but is not the same for LTP, NF, P4F or VK that clearly are gone (the first three), and VK doesn't release as before.
I really think that a reduction of production makes sense if we thought the rivality and the number of customers, i always thought that the offer was too much of the possible demand here..is a guessing, i don't have the numbers but were a couple of years with the 6-7 main studios releasing new scenes per day with the prices rising and the inflation.. how could be possible sell everything to everyone?

Economically for studios maybe yes.
For me as a user I have too little scenes with sex acts I need to buy very often on a day-by-day basis.![]()
For the girls I see more and more of them switching to escort tours with often heavy traveling. I cant imagine it's good to have no option left to earn what they need with porn only.

As I said, rising living costs lead to less scenes sold and studios reduced output or stopped completely, some of them driven out of the market by that sudden TKT price rise of April 2022.
Now from users POV if you fellow all those fights over side-fetishes like cloths, barefoot, food-porn etc. I doubt users even want to support all core studios, but they still need their porn fix. And you can see that studios specialize for certain market segments. Questions is is there enough choice on days like today (with 3 single annals (1 of them naked) and 1 DAP scene) or couldn they sell more if they would offer more?

About first paragraph, the situation didn't change too much, in economic terms (a little bit better for the users as i wrote in the trump victory's thread), so would be normal to the studios keep the current situation of the productions.
About the second one; I consider too the cloths or barefoot as side-fetishes but i don't think that are something "too much decisive", puke/food play, even pee, are more strong fetishes that catch an audience of an specific market, the result is how piss is so common when was extremly rare and how food porn has an specific series in yummy studio but..people only buy one specific fetish? i don't think so, are a part of the anal core here and the last question i think you answered yourself: If the studios are in the current situation because they reduced the production when before offered more scenes than today.. makes sense comeback to release 1-2 or 3 scenes per day, satisfying particular fetishes, for each studio because they could sell more? I don't think so.
Zeok, here I can give you an all-clear: EKS will soon resume their shootings in Bukarest.Zeok wrote:...if EKS disappears from Bucharest, as seems likely according to DAP-Addict (Apparently I wasted my entire time on my biggest post to improve EKS scenes)
dap-addict wrote:add: Btw, I never claimed EKS Bukarest would disappear! I was just really worried about their long and longer Spring break. And in case of doubt: I pay an EKS subscription and as you write, indeed, they show naked girls during their gangbangs.
