You must be the?Mr Suit that has been wheeled out to try and make everything look totally normal at TVX! lol I've got a couple of points to make:

Point 1/ In the real World, you only sack, sorry, stop commissioning, all the people who make stuff for you for 2 reasons, these are: you're going down the toilet or you're losing money. If TVX was doing well you'd be asking for even more stuff, not less. Its a bit like me telling my wife that I'm planning on saving money by not putting any diesel in my cab. She'd say I was a complete twat, because without fuel I can't do my job. Without new stuff you can't do yours.


Point 2/You said I wont notice any difference now you've sacked all your producers. Where I'm confused is when you said we would get premieres of "Shows/ scenes" every Friday and Saturday. You didn't say, "Series", which I know is 5 shows on your station.?So are you calling an individual show,"a premiere?"?If you were doing this then you could easily say you have enough "premieres" to last till 2013, except its not really a premiere is it? Isn't a premiere the first show in a new series? On a normal TV channel I always think it is. Anyway, if I am wrong please tell me how many complete 5 show, unseen series you have left? if I am right, then you are playing with words to hoodwink your viewers. I just worked out that if you were, "Premiering" a NEW SERIES every Friday and Saturday until 2013, then you must have about 50 brand new series waiting for broadcast! Does anyone else know whether on TV a "premiere" is the first show in a series or can you call any of the shows a "Premiere?. I'm even more puzzled now, than I was before! lol

It's not just you, most are in the same boat.

Its an absolute nightmare to subscribe to tvx online.

After my subscription ran out I tried to renew a couple of months later, only to be told my account was inactive. No option to do anything about it. That's it! I gave up.

Bare in mind they were offering a 3 day trial for a quid!!

The only way to cancel a subscription is to cancel the credit card you are paying for it on. Any other attempt to cancel will fail, they just ignore you and keep taking your money.

That may have something to do with a real reduction in the amount of disposable income that people within that market-capture have.
The idea that the supposed reduced interest in soft-core material is the sole reason the the loss of readership doesn't hold water.
Let's get down to cases... I've seen the change in the material available over the last 20+ years and I'm no more or less interested in soft stuff. The idea that the availability of harder material will kill everything else doesn't permeate into other areas either... has the availability of overproof rum killed sales of lager?

Arginald Valleywater says "Maybe some decent content would help. Most peopel with a double digit IQ are bored shitless with these pathetic parodys you keep churning out. I watch the likes of Dorcel and Viv Thomas as they show fabulous women and handsome men, not some tattooed munter humping a fat bloke who only gets a shag when he pays a model to turn up. Imagine Top Gear doing features on Allegros, Cortinas and Morris Minors.....you watch tv to see what is out of the ordinary."

If this is the case Arginald Valleywater then these shows you harp on about will carry on will they not?

Amateur as had the mass market for years now & is still thriving so its the public choice that as caused the big companies to go under not the small producers you winge about so often.

We were making porn years before it went legal & once it become legal the larger companies swamped the market with cheap material but we knew they couldn't keep this up at them prices for the duration & only had to wait it out, its the small producers that keep going year after year that make their mark in this industry.

Beautiful people in top notch glossy films may look good but the normal everyday guy can't seriously imagine himself in that situation like he does when he watches real people in real porn...there is no competition.

But isn't that the point? It's fantasy. I would describe myself as a "normal everyday guy" and I certainly don't want to see someone who looks like my neighbours or even me in a porn film. I want glamour and fantasy, not the girl next door. It's the same with Hollywood - that's why Angelina Jolie and Scarlet Johansson are huge international stars and Bella Emberg isn't...

Yes i can understand where you are coming from but there is not enough guys like you wanting this subject to keep it going at an healthy rate, most people want free now days so the structure is not there anymore to sustain the turnover.

All i was saying is that there was no need to slate other productions because of the expensive glossy demise as the industry is full of niches, imagine if we were all the same we would all be finished & there would be no porn.
