online porn




A general term used to describe pornographic Web sites, chat rooms, and newsgroups found on the Internet. History repeats itself: Soon after the video recorder was introduced, it was used extensively for X-rated movies, and a lot of money was made; so too with adult-content Web sites. They infiltrated the Web from its inception, generating enormous amounts of cash. Online porn was already a $1 billion industry in 1998, due primarily to online ads and subscriptions. As of 2006, the online porn industry generated more than $97.06 billion in revenue.
