Porn: Dying!
The AVN events ended last weekend, leaving the faint funk of over-eager fans and various flavors of silicone, over which hangs the spectre of the lagging sales and dropping profits.

That sounds like a boon - like some MFA figured out a way to diversify into mutually-beneficial markets which otherwise overlapped little. Number five might just be pay-for-porn's salvation.
