you'd think they'd have more money since their website a couple years ago was a 24 hour trial to 40 bucks or something

dont quote me on that, but its pretty accurate

Not to mention the fact that they had a recurring affiliate program which they built up and then cancelled (like Busty Amateurs), so the webmasters promoting them lost their recurring.

I would hate to see any of the really big name mags go out of business, though. I think they are the ones that make people accept porn as mainstream. That probably helps a lot when it comes to first amendment court cases.
