This article presents information on the booming adult-video business. However, with the new U.S. President and incoming Attorney General there is a bit of consciousness among the people connected with the trade. It is informed that an estimated 25,000 video outlets across the nation stock adult material and that more than 10,000 new adult-video titles are released each year; last year there were 711 million rentals of hard-core sex films. Porn is a dollar 10 billion industry-- dollar 4 billion of that in explicit video sales-that even has links to corporate parents like General Motors and AT&T.
