Interestingly we have seen on both our retail sites, wehovideo.com and gayasianshop.com an increase in DVD sales, an obvious decline in VHS sales with the change in formats
Our overall sales have increased substantially year over year for the past 3 years on the retail side of things..without revealing numbers, let's just say it has driven our company to a very major financial milestone as a result.
We have also noticed an increase in VOD sales, both as a producer of content and an affiliate to VOD Sites.
WE have also been trying to forcast how long the typical retail purchase and product delivery sales model will hold out and when it will have to give way to a majority of sales in online delivery. I think it woudl be a mistake for any retailer that does not take this into consideration. yes, there will always be some stores, there will always be some retail sales in physical products for those that are quality collectors, but at some point I believe the majority of sales will be for VOD delivery of products.
We actually have been working on a retail purchasing option that will blend with the website on a per video basis, to give the purchaser the option of buying the DVD or watching online as a hedge against what we consider to be an eventuality.

For many years, we sold Big Dick (gay & straight) videos.
From 1999 - 2002, video sales warranted us hiring a person solely to package and ship the product.
Those days are now gone, and not only because of the video sites (VOD, PPV etc), but more so due to the lack of new titles, for the specific niche.
Every video distributor, which I have been in contact with over the last few years, offer/think the exact same thing: oh, you want newer (2003-2005) big dick titles; here check these out ... : links to interracial, anal, gagging, gapping and gonzo titles.
Guess the industry is trying to tell me only black men have a big dick. For those that did actually have a few big dick titles, what they offered are from the 90's.
WOW, so they stopped making white big dicks back in the 90’s. (Before anyone starts-up with me ... NO, I am not a racist - I am somewhat olive brown and many consider me a visible minority - I just know what our members want!)
It was pathetic how one company passed off a link that redirected to their anal section ... you fuckers; you've just been added to my shat/negative/black list! Now here is your hat … you know what to do to it!

don't forget the torrent sites, a lot of which have thousands of members
