Risk for non-payers has to exist to motivate anyone to pay. That's what copyright does.

Nope, that's been completely disproven. I can download pretty much any movie I want in top quality without paying a cent. According to your theory the movie industry should be dead, in fact it should have died decades ago. Instead people are still paying for movies and the industry is doing just fine, expanding in fact.

In addition people have shown they're perfectly willing to fund projects through things like patreon and kickstarter, even when they don't receive any physical media in return and even (in some cases) to help develop a product which might never exist.

The main purpose copyright currently serves is to suppress competition. Media megacorps have given up suing individual torrenters, the only people they bother suing anymore is anyone producing derivative works or original creative work they consider "too similar." Copyright allows them to stake out a huge field of creative ideas and declare a monopoly. Eventually it'll get to the point where any story you can possibly tell will have a jew sitting on it saying "I own this."

Pornography was about to implode on itself because the courts are practically not enforcing copyright for it and the production is saturated, and every revenue scheme for it fails. Economically ignorant prohibitions on media is how you end up keeping an about to implode media industry surviving.

Even if the porn industry died (I doubt it) it wouldn't matter: The internet is already saturated with women producing porn for free. The current value proposition of porn stars isn't taking their clothes off, it's pretending to be in a relationship with their johns and making them feel valued, hence the rise of things like onlyfans. Some of them don't even produce anything recognisable as porn.

If you really want to kill pornography you make it very slightly illegal everywhere so that it doesn't get copyright protection, then you don't enforce that law, and all revenue efforts fail after a few years. No more production. Eventually the majority of already made content becomes memory holed in 10 years.

See above. Anything and everything produced by any major porn company is available for free. They can't stop it, copyright laws haven't stopped it. Despite that, they're still going.

It's true, you can download just about any Hollywood movie but your average boomer couldn't figure this out. Streaming a movie from a website or app makes access 100x easier.

Every Hollywood movie streaming website is taken down within a few weeks, sometimes they're lucky they'll get a few months. Why? Because the ease of free accessibility is what would kill it.

For porn, you can stream a large catalog free & conveniently, however, most of these companies release teaser >10min videos on those free porn streaming sites to hook in customers. For the newer content and onlyfans type of content, you will be hard pressed to find any video, especially conveniently stream because the copyright enforcement is strong and active.

The porn industry knows what they're doing, it's like a drug, you give a taste and many turn into customers that want more and more.

That's true. But are boomers the prime demographic being targetted by jewlywood? Mostly they seem to like genX and millenials both of whom tend to be tech savvy and more than competant enough to use torrents. Could be just selection bias on my part, but that's what I'm seeing.

More because of the centralisation. They tried to target torrenting sites, they even tried to put a tax on recordable media, but it didn't work out.

It's more because the people paying for it feel they have a personal connection to the producer, so they don't want to screw them over by leaking the pay-for content. Once a channel gets big enough though eventually someone will. For example, Belle Delphine's stuff was leaked and it turned out to be mostly bikini shots.

Sure. I just don't agree copyright is their lynchpin.

It's simple at the end of the day, if you take away the profit motive, the only thing you'll have are people doing it for fetish reasons.

If onlyfans content was easily available on streaming sites due to lack of copyright strike enforcement, I guarantee the women would not make nearly as much as is required to make good income or even enough to get nude in public.

There is a reason sites like onlyfans pay lots of money to protect their copyright.
