Porn Bigger Business Than Entire US Theatrical Revenue

The figures below indicate that there is a huge undercurrent of masturbation in Western society. Masturbation is big business and one of the world's most serious unidentified, spiritual problems. There are countless people suffering from depression because the medical establishment has withheld the simple truth that excessive sex drains the energy required for productive activity and clear consciousness. We are not taking about the occasional masturbator here, we are talking about those who flog the dog at least once a day, and whose minds are drenched with a daily dose of 24/7 sexual fantasy.

"Porn is big business. Adult entertainment, including porn videos and films shot mainly in Southern California's San Fernando Valley, racked up estimated sales of $12.6 billion in 2005, according to statistics compiled by AVN.

That compared with U.S. theatrical revenue of $8.9 billion for mainstream Hollywood films, according to figures from box office tracking firm Exhibitor Relations.

Like Hollywood, the U.S. porn industry is dominated by a handful of privately held studios: Wicked Pictures, Vivid Entertainment, New Sensations, Digital Playground/Adam & Eve and porn queen Jenna Jameson's company, Club Jenna.

Unlike Hollywood, they do not disclose revenue or production costs, making it difficult to gauge the size and profitability of the industry."
