Are you speaking about the LP/AV core studios (gonzo, GIO/GL, NF, NTP, NRX, VK) or the pornbox clip sales platform including also ex-DDF, Private, GGG, BangBros and different other small productions?
I also ask because if its about pornbox clip sales platform I have the feelings rough and soft is pretty balanced. There's a lot of soft available for those who dont like hard. If you ask about LP/AV in narrowed terms it looks different indeed.
@dapaddict: You make very good points here about differentiating between sites. I personally think that a far bigger factor is that gorgeous young women aren't coming along anymore from the variety of countries at the rate they were even 3-5 years ago. I don't understand this as social factors haven't changed.
This leads to some important points. Most other sites charge on flat fee per month as we know & rely on past scenes as their main attraction. LP has better back catalogue than most of them so has nothing to fear there. But I would suspect the current pricing system is based on an inflow of new talents that simply isn't coming through anymore. I think LP though trying admirably, is currently like a rock group trying to create 3 new LP's (excuse the pun) each year, instead of one, the quality suffers & you're putting too much pressure on yourselves in current climate.
Secondly, the 'extreme' element thats the motto for last couple of years - this wasn't necessarily what attracted a subscription from all your fans. Many of them, mysef included, did so on an older LP vibe.
Lastly, it'd incur a massive reorganisation & buying up studios & connections (so as not to create a turf war) in USA, but some of the talent consistently coming through in USA is very good. For example some of the girls who run through the "Backroom Casting Couch" are suprisingly attractive. Then they just disappear. USA amazingly is still regularly coming up with new girls all the time.
I hope I'm not off-topic but all points concern direction.
