The effect of Pornography on technology trends

[Y3MBailey]

I am currently a student researching the above topic for a dissertation. Looking at things such as how the vhs/beta-max wore was won on porn and how things such as internet video downloads has had porn at the helm

I wanted to throw a few questions out there to see if anyone has any interesting thought, opinions or anything helpful they can direct me towards.

I can be contacted at dt04mmb@brunel.ac.uk

Anyone who can offer some help will be credited in my Dissertation and will be the recipient of much gratitude.

Any general help n this topic will be welcome but some more specific questions are:

How has the industry changed with the advent of new technology in the last 5 - 10 years?

How important do you feel that new visual mediums are in distributing adult material?

Do you think that the adult industry is "there first" with new technology?

Do you feel porn has played a significant role in the following: internet downloads, mobile phone downloads, vhs, dvd, streaming?

Where do you seen the adult industry moving to in the next 5 - 10 years (new medium, new tech new methods of distribution)?

Are there any ideas you have taken from other non adult media outlets (eg youtube) or are generally ideas created inhouse?

I hope some of you can provide me with some help in this very interesting research piece.

Many thanks
Matthew Bailey
