Re: good site for videos?
How easy is it to get content removed from torrent sites such as isohunt etc?
I found some of my vids on BTjunkie and we DMCA'd them, but nothing happened. They are still there.
Is it because the files are not actually hosted by them, but reside on individuals PC's?
What can be done to remove them?

I was trying to find a way online how to do it and ran across this:
Can Porn Be Copyrighted?
Ernesto
August 17, 2012
In the U.S. tens of thousands of people have been dragged into lawsuits by porn studios. All are accused of downloading adult movies on BitTorrent without consent.
In recent months a few of these BitTorrent downloaders started to fight back.
Among other things they claim that porn can’t be copyrighted, because it doesn’t fit the basic principle that copyright should promote “the progress of science” or “useful arts.”
As a result copyright infringement is impossible. But not everyone agrees.
Malibu Media, who are counter sued by “BitTorrent” defendant Jeff Fantalis for millions of dollars,
The First Amendment Lawyers’ Association is getting involved in the case and tell the judge that the claim because it’s discriminatory.
“[The defendant's] position contradicts the Copyright Act and seeks a sweeping, content-based restriction on what genre of works are entitled to copyright protection,” they write in their brief.
“This restriction would, if accepted, not only create a Constitutional problem, but a practical one — fragmenting copyright law on the basis of local community standards.”
A negative ruling on this issue for Malibu Media could be the end of the copyright trolling by adult movie studios.
In addition to the copyright claim, Fantalis also wants millions of dollars in damages for defamation, emotional distress and invasion of privacy.
Definitely a case to watch.

I was curious about the whole Malibu lawsuit...they are seen as nothing more than copyright trolls, not really about the copyright more about the money...

Or do they all sign a contract given a one off fee and no royalties? So how do the performers get rich? If they do what you do and become independent producers? I noticed the top straight performers also do their own productions

Hell no we don't budget for it. I need every sale I can get, since more sales lets me invest in larger projects. And I'd love to keep expanding the scope of what I do.
Pretty much everything in the TS industry is flat fee.
Performers typically don't become rich from performing. The people producing the films make the largest share. If performers have money, its typically from ancillary income streams like escorting.
Those of us who self produce do get a larger slice of the pie, but there's trade-offs to it. For example, I'll work less for other companies than other models. Since I'm so strong with my own brand, it's much harder for other companies to monetize content they shoot with me.
