AUSTIN, TX – Porn has officially come to the iPod thanks to Porncaster.net. The free service provides daily video updates of a wide range of adult entertainment options from dozens of third-party sites. Soon exclusive membership options will allow users to enjoy personalized podcast feeds on their mobile devices or computers.Porncaster.net president, John Gibson believes that the video iPod “is the hottest gift this year,” and thus expects his company to do brisk business selling videos for mobile fans of blue content. Chief among the selling points is the ease of use and ability to customize content. Some of the benefits of iPod are no pop-ups, no banner ads, no spyware, no dead-end links, and the ability to provide feeds to users based upon their previous viewing habits.
According to SearchEngingWatch.com, five of the top 10 search terms used at Podcast.net, one of the largest podcast lists, is for adult materials. A market with 100 million users is estimated by Verkata LLC to exist, and the Washington Post anticipates a $200 million portable adult content income potential by 2009.
Gibson believes that the reason more adult business leaders haven’t taken advantage of the iPod’s potential for financial growth is because legal standards have been uncertain and business models largely unavailable.
“Right now adult audio casts have no real revenue model and video has hardly been tried,” he explains. “Existing sites just kind of hope that people will occasionally come back to their web site and click on an advertisement.”
