Porn Piracy & “SECRET Meetings”… Sherman Speaks!

 

by Sherman of EMMREPORT.com

 I was recently speaking with Dr.X, our esteemed editor in charge of something, of what I’m not really  sure. That’s another discussion, anyway, we were discussing the persistent stories of so called “secret meetings” taking place all over Porn Valley regarding Piracy, it’s effect on the Adult Entertainment and their bottom line. Now he {Dr.X] has been involved in one form or another with this industry for 20 plus years, so I think he might have an idea of what he is talking about. His thoughts on the so called “SECRET” meetings?  “Secret”? What’s the BIG secret? Piracy? Is that a Secret?  Not last time I checked. No, this community {the Adult Entertainment Industry} should be asking a few questions about these so called “secret” meetings:  If this is a situation that affects the entire community, why isn’t the ENTIRE community allowed to participate?

     For those of you outside this community, let’s expose a couple of basic realities, shall we: 
      First: The toughest problem facing combating this situation is simple,  you will NEVER, I repeat NEVER get the entire community together on anything {even something as serious at the Piracy issue facing everyone} as long as you have individuals putting together “secret” meetings like this. These people holding “Secret” meetings can BS you all day long, issue pretty press releases, but the reality is simple: The community is so fragmented, always has been, always will be,  it’s always on display at every convention you go to, every industry function, agency, EVERYTHING.  Piracy is something that affects every individual on every level, so yes while everyone has a different perspective, we all must have the same perspective to combat piracy.

     Second: Until individuals like the ones putting these “secret” meetings together understand that “WE” {the entire community} not ME {me. Myself and I] have a serious issue to deal with, trust me, this issue will go NO where fast. You individuals who’ve been a little more successful then some others need to learn to RESPECT those who may have not been as successful as you, RESPECT  their points of view, not everyone is going to agree on everything, but, I think if said individuals spent less time in Secret meetings, and more time reaching out to other aspects of the community, you might be surprised at the outcome.

     Third: This is a very complex and difficult issue, I certainly don’t have a solution, but I think if you combine all aspects of this community together, definite inroads can be made to combat the issue. If said individuals think that by having a select few people meet in secrecy will do any good, in reality, it will do more harm then good…

     Fourth:  This community includes all the Performers, you are the most visible, you are ultimately the ones who’s lives will be most impacted, less companies producing means less job opportunities, which means less work, yes kids it’s that simple.

     Fifth:  This is NOT a situation that is EXCLUSIVE to anyone, the longer you treat it as such, the more DIFFICULT the issue becomes to address for EVERYONE…

       These are some things those who organize “Secret” meetings might want to think about when they get ready to meet again…
