? Ad revenue of $152,356 a month for the nine months ending September 30 is skimpy. The company is hoping to change that, but acknowledges: "We have never generated significant revenue from internet advertising and may not be able to in the future."

With the credit crunch and it's going to get worse, what does this mean to all the sites that live off advertising on sites that pirate others work?
AFF going under or even just pulling out of Internet advertising is going to have a big knock on effect that will go beyond our industry. Pirate Bay make money from adverts, if the people on Pirate Bay don't buy off the adverts, those advertisers might think it's time to stop spending money there. Which means high traffic sites giving away things for nothing might not be able to pay there hosting bills. Won't stop it all together, but it will put a huge dent in the piracy industry.
This is just AFF but what are all the others really doing in profit from adverting on Piracy sites?
I never did think in a straight line. LOL
