Things aren't doing so well for JAV either.
Many more file locker/streaming sites have opened these last few years and R18.com is turning a blind eye as quite a few openly link to them as affiliates.

Studios will continue to press discs in high-risk countries and then wonder why their content appears on Chinese forums sometimes before even release day. Just as damaging is sticking to an antiquated item number system making it super easy for people to find the content online (no need to search for a super long name that may have been botched in the translation when ABX-392 will net even better results).

How many active hentai studios would you say there are now?
