Turns Out Porn Isn't Recession-Proof | Epicenter from Wired.com

This recession is a little different, though. It's been extremely challenging for adult filmmakers, who are not only wrestling with anemic consumer spending, they're also competing with a nearly infinite supply of free, amateur videos from countless user-generated sites, not to mention a glut of traditional inventory.

"From my experience, as long as I've been in this business, this is the first time I can say that we're absolutely feeling the effects of the economy," says Steve Orenstein, president and founder of Wicked Pictures, and a 29-year veteran of the adult-entertainment industry. "There was a line we used to use about this business being recession proof. When people talked about the economy, we'd say our business is fine. But look, now you'd have to be blind and deaf not to see that there are problems."
Congratulations Bush, your handling of the economy couldn't possibly be worse and this proves it...anyone who doubts that Bush hasn't failed and failed miserably has to have their head shoved so far up their patoot they can see their own tonsils.
