The Evolving International Market
Just how important are international sales to American porn manufacturers? “Overseas is critical,” said Peter Reynolds, whose Plaid Bag Media sells content around the world for clients that include, exclusively, Adam & Eve. “It’s a new world order and every studio has to look at every aspect of the market now and not rely on their domestic sales, as they did years ago.”
