Yes, it is chump change for Visa. Especially when you consider corporate image, consumer confidence, governmental policy. How much of $10 billion do you think actually makes it into Visa's coffers?

You don't even know the most influencial people in online porn, as they do not hang out on message boards, and they do not go to IA 2000 or any other 'webmaster events', so I'd say you are very poorly qualified in saying that they have no clout with the banks that clear them ?

This is spooky. You know who I know and who I don't. Are you psychic or omniscient?
Where did I mention anything about clout with acquiring banks? Visa is a consortium of about 21,000 "banks". You could own one of the the vast majority of those banks and still have no clout with Visa.

Again, who said anything about message boards? You're starting to not make sense. If everybody who's "known" in the industry is only 5% of the pie? Who is this shadowy cabal of super secret porn purveyors? Which corporations are heavily involved in online porn? Where are their sites? Where do you they get their traffic? Why has nobody noticed?
To account for 95% of online porn would take a lot of traffic. You can't get that sort of volume just anywhere online. Traffic doesn't come out of black holes, it has to come from somewhere. The only place that you could plausibly get traffic in that volume is from the isp's or search engines and that's just not happening.
Remember, we're talking about online porn. Cable, satellite, hotel pay-per-view, strip clubs, dvd/video sales etc. are not generally considered online porn. You also can't count all of AOL's revenue as online porn simply because they have a few adult chat rooms.
If you said online porn is 5% of the porn industry you may be in the ballpark, but to say that the known online porn industry is only 5% of the entire online porn industry doesn't make sense. Particularly when you don't say who is the other 95%.

Do you really not know what you're talking about or are you just trolling for attention?

Gee, you do make a lot of assumptions about me don't you? I have to wonder if your whole post is nothing but assuptions. You sure don't present any evidence.

Man, you're creeping me out again. We have had Santa Claus try to join one of our sites, but he was declined. Go figure. Oddly we're also had Richard Nixon, Julius Caesar, Lil Abner and a few other suspicious names try as well.
