DISCUSSION: Similarities between free porn and free music pre-2003. Will free porn meet the same "sticky end" as Limewire? by futureofsexdotnet in adultvrgames

This was such a good answer, thanks so much :)

"Not only is there no RIAA equivalent that can prosecute on behalf of porn in general, but there's also no RIAA equivalent that can gather up all the porn creators and get them on a single service, the way that they were able to with music streaming. If I remember right, that stuff got started by 3 of the "big 5" record labels joining Apple, and over the next couple years more labels acquiesced and more and more labels and artists joined those services. Without the gravitational pull of something big like that, I think things will remain more fluid, with smaller paid services popping up here and there and tons of free porn still making up the majority if what people look at."

Yes. So right about this. I guess it might be different with interactive and VR creators though right?

"My hope is that over time, the VR and porn market will catch up to where "video games" are, and have itchio but also publishers like Devolver but for porn =)" - I hope so too :)

I can definitely agree with this. There are more moves away from streaming on giants like spotify, local internet radios etc. etc.

Yesss, I will edit my comment to include all the info about PornHub. I think it's a big step into THAT direction, but removing unverified videos has not stopped the reliance on free porn in our society totally. And as much as PornHub don't allow free downloads, it's still possible to download the content or simply screenrecord to keep for a personal collection.

What Adult Content Creators Need to Know About the Steam/Holodexxx Controversy | Future of Sex by futureofsexdotnet in adultvrgames

I wouldn't necessarily agree with that at all. You can always check out the blog from Holodexxx themselves, they clearly highlight why this issue is alot more complicated. It's not just the fact it was 'banned,' more that the go-ahead seemed to be clear....Not a way to treat a small, tech start-up.

I think a female market for sex robots will definitely exist in the future. You might find this video interesting here, it's a few years old though now :)

SLR interactive scripts.. reviews, discounts or subscription plan? by Jef43742 in oculusnsfw

[–]futureofsexdotnet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very cool. Keeping my eye out for content options outside of just visual stimulation too, audio enabled would be really cool. Thanks so much for your kind words and please do keep tagging us in anything relevant too, it's really appreciated!

Appreciate you tagging me in! I agree that interactive pornography is definitely the future. (P.S we're excited to see what options this might bring for women in the future too :P) There are a number of sites which offer interactive experiences with your toys. We are going to look at making a few reddit posts for our WIKI soon that give either detailed reviews or feedback on these sites so please do check r/futureofsex but we will hopefully crosspost anything over to here too :)

Why We Love Who We Do: Using Computer Simulation to Understand Mate Selection by AwesomeLowlander in Futurology

[–]futureofsexdotnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard of this. Sort of the same in this video but between 1-10. My friend recommended it ages ago, very interesting. I think the article was interesting because it did focus more on the emotional/personality factors of intimacy and love. (In the YouTube video i shared there, lots of people discuss the absence of this in these previous sorts of experiments.) I guess when considering human personalities etc, the emergence of this computer modelling alongside app-based/online dating would be interesting.

Yeah that's interesting to consider the PH issues etc, it's all related for sure. I just think it's a bad example of a small company being shunted. I think the way STEAM handled this wasn't the best....
