Carnal Media Acquires Paysite of Director Edward James

LOS ANGELES — Carnal Media has acquired EdwardJames.com; the veteran director's all-male paysite, founded 15 years ago, will now join the Carnal+ streaming service.

“I had one foot out and Carnal+ pulled me back in," James told XBIZ.

"When the pandemic hit and the industry shut down, I decided it was time to make a change. After 30 years in the biz, I had one foot out the door," he noted. "Then I spoke to [company founder] Legrand Wolf at Carnal Plus and just like that, I’m not only back in, but I’m doing it bigger and better than ever. I’m creating content that people want and need to see, with a team that cares about what they do and how they do it."

"Thank you, Legrand, and the team at Carnal+," James added.

The paysite, which has been newly revamped, features "three distinct brands," noted a rep, and includes an extensive catalog that contains "hundreds of videos." A biweekly release schedule is planned.

Following the recent launch of FTMMen.com, the rep said, "the Carnal Media team is working diligently in 2022 to bring several new websites online. With so much accomplished already, 2022 is shaping up to be a landmark year for Carnal."

James' eponymous site joins two-dozen premium web properties on CarnalPlus.com, including FunSizeBoys.com, GrowlBoys.com, JockPussy.com, MasonicBoys.com and TwinkTop.com.
