Illegal downloads of Tgirl porn, you views please
This question is mainly pointed towards the girls and the produces of Tgirl material, but I know most people'll have a view on this topic. You can't help but notice that tgirl porn just about every these days via bittorrent (be it a public or private trackers) sites or on rapidshare. I know some of the guys here get some of there material from these site. I've seen links for rapidshare and I myself have posted a link for the latest upload of Mariana Cordoba clip on purTnA, but I wondered what everyone thought. So, is downloading illegal tgirl porn (doesn't have to be tgirl porn, could be any porn) undermining the adult industry or is illegal downloading expected seeing as it so readily available? Come to think of it, there's more adult based websites than anything else on the internet.

We all download porn for free the same as we've all downloaded music for free and probably at some point watched a pirate video. It's illegal and it hurts the industry and it sucks as an owner but nothing is going to stop it completely.
However, if everybody was doing it to all of the content out there then there simply would be no budget to shoot new material and less money would go back into the industry. My personal views, if hobbyists are swapping sets with each other then I'm not that particularly interested in tracking it down but if other websites are making money from complete sets of images/content of mine then I'm going to be pissed off. No matter which way you look at it, free sites like yahoo groups are making money from stolen adult content and sites like rapidshare are also cashing in on stolen content (I think there will be a class action at some point against sites like this but unlikely it will come from the adult industry as most people aren't prepared to work together on these sort of instances).
I've had to close down pay sites which have stolen our content and requested that sites like this show on a set amount of content (remember sites like Hung Angels survive only because of the paysites and making an affiliate sale to a site or DVD company.
I think the internet has a mass of free content on it, you have to work for it to find it sometimes but paying $25 for a good website is incredible value. A magazine is $10 (or more) for 5-8 photosets of about 20 pics, look at the amount of content updated in a month on a website!
So if you're a surfer enjoy the free porn but if you never join a site, never buy a DVD or put any money back into the industry then you're going to contribute to cheaper more generic porn and less original content with fresh girls, so consider paying every now and again.

Yeah what he said...
I might also add that most guys havent a marginal clue the time,effort and cost we website owners put out each month.Now of course thats not gonna stop anybody from getting free porn,but it further illustrates the points Seanchai made.
