We begin with the elephant in the room, the proliferation (and opportunism) of adult tube sites, which some people insist are evolving into an acceptable business model.

* Beyond Traditional Content and Delivery
The days of ‘Content is King’ are over forever — or are they? Maybe we’re on the cusp of a revolution in adult content and the way in which affiliate markets promote it online.

* What's Next?
Our peerless panelists will get down and specific about what they see coming down the pike in the foreseeable future, and what they’re doing now to prepare for it. After all, tomorrow’s foundation is always being laid today.
