I don't think the comment about GM making millions from porn is true. I assume the article is implying they make this money through porn sold on DirecTV, but GM sold DirecTV to News Corp in 2003. Not sure how else the author believes GM is making money on porn.

GM sells satellite radio in their cars, and there is an optional adult package for that. Maybe they get a cut of the revenue?

I wonder what the rate for STDs are for porn stars compared to the general population?

I think these statistics are way off. 35% of all downloads are porn-related? Come on. Whether this is referring to bandwidth usage (surfing) or actually downloading video content, 1/3 isn't even close to realistic.

^And how do you know it's not realistic? What research, proof, etc. do you have OTHER than your personal belief that its not? Exactly.

A friend in the business told me that the mens makes way more money than the woman who performs in the movies. Usually, they are paid over 2 times what the girl will make.

@Jon Featherlin - Indeed, and recent studies have shown that porn actually accounts for under 1% of all downloads and data on the internet.

Hey, Brian Childs, did you get these numbers on your own, or you copied from another study? I'd like to know where every production studio for professional purposes. I'd love to know where they are? :)
