Not for the reason they say, though ("for the children"). The top of the article gives it away:

Apparently, online self-created, self-uploaded porn is putting a dent into the bottom line of traditional porn studios, and they don't like it. But since they can't come out and admit "competition is costing us money" they say much of it is pirated (maybe, I dunno), that it's forcing old style pornographers to get nasty :AMR: and that kids are able to access OTHER PEOPLE'S porn instead of their own. It's complete hypocritical BS. A few commenters nailed it:
Documentary maker and former porn star Ovidie says the pirating of videos on to free-to-view websites means fewer films are made and fees have been slashed

So, the porn industry and social critics "worry about the effect porn culture is having on the way teenage boys treat girls"? Should have listened to those of us during the Nixon Administration when we flatly told you what pornography was doing to young men. Instead, with the visual of greenbacks in your eyes, you mocked the science and ridiculed the messenger [but] now you want to complain about the falling wages of porn actors? Dumb. Very dumb, as Rome crumbles because of weakened, distracted men. Again: dumb.
"actors forced to shoot more hardcore films"......"far fewer films are now being made" So which is it? And BTW, all this alarmist talk sounds a lot like what RIGHT WINGERS were saying 40 years ago. If you want me to listen to you, you must first apologize to THEM.
