Porn In The U.S.A. - Americans Spend $10 Billion A Year On Adult Entertainment
 

Selling sex is one of the oldest businesses in the world, and right now, business has never been better.

One of the biggest cultural changes in the United States over the past 25 years has been the widespread acceptance of sexually explicit material - pornography.

In the space of a generation, a product that once was available in the back alleys of big cities has gone corporate, delivered now directly into homes and hotel rooms by some of the biggest companies in the United States.

It is estimated that Americans now spend somewhere around $10 billion a year on adult entertainment, which is as much as they spend attending professional sporting events, buying music or going out to the movies

But how much do they spend on online porn?
And what % of all money spent on porn in the US is spent on online porn :question

Good Question.

DVD/VHS sales have to be a huge chunk of this.

that 60 minutes episode was a major recycle of the old footage/stiory they had from a while back

lame

I wonder what the government would do to compensate for the tax dollars if they keep cutting what is legal & what is 'acceptable'.

All that money and no effective voice.

If that was in Europe we would have a minister of porn. :1orglaugh

The tax dollars are insignificant.

Not much.
Online porn maybe just 10-15% from these $10 billions

thos are good numbers! :glugglug

I belive $500 million.

Too much free porn! :winkwink:

its still better than doing drugs and alcohol, :Graucho

it's obvious once more - porn thrives in sexually suppressed societies.

yep I saw it before.

before it was AT&T
now it's Comcast

comcast bought AT&T cable

And it is really stupid that we don't. Name an industry and they have a trade organization lobbies congress!!!!

No cooperation here, everyone thinks only about his bank account.
