Regarding the people that post copyrighted material, they may or may not only provide said material. Who knows? I haven't made statistics, and I'm not planning on it... What I do know is that there are large quantities of free videos made by bona fide fetishers (men and women). These vary in quality from very poor to extremely fine, with possibly most in the so-so range (just like for-sale stuff). The SF community has grown and become somewhat more mainstream, thus the large and increasing production of DIY free material. I also know that some folks will take copyrighted stuff and put it up for public view.

In truth, I do feel bad for Fran because quite a few of the videos produced by the company were very good. But my point still stands: Anyone wishing to start and prosper in a business must be entirely ready to take collateral damage; they need capital prior to the start of a risky venture. I also feel bad for the girls that Fran has been unable to remunerate yet...
