Mobile Porn Boosts Pink Visual

VAN NUYS, Calif. — While many adult entertainment sectors continue to feel the pinch of the global economic slowdown, one segment seems to be booming for Pink Visual — the mobile porn market.

According to the Internet-focused production house, it has seen a recent uptick is sales in certain market areas, despite overall softness in other segments — and even sees continued growth ahead.

"While some of our divisions are generating less revenue than in years past, we've actually seen significant growth in some emerging sectors, and we have a very positive outlook for the future, even in the immediate short term," Pink Visual Brand and Product Manager Kim Kysar said. "Our mobile division in particular is performing very nicely, and our projections indicate that mobile will be an increasingly important revenue stream for us going forward."

"Until late 2007, the mobile porn market in the U.S. was largely theoretical," stated a company release. "Due to reticence on the part of major U.S. telecoms to facilitate billing for mobile adult content, the market for mobile porn in the U.S. fell well behind the European mobile porn market."

Pink Visual attributes the rise in domestic mobile adult sales to iPhone users in particular.

"The iPhone single-handedly opened up new horizons for American mobile porn, and we positioned ourselves to take advantage of the opportunity by keeping our eyes and ears open when the iPhone was still in development," Kysar said. "We heard some of the buzz that was floating around prior to the iPhone's release and thought to ourselves 'this is going to be big.'"

According to Kysar, the studio is already working to optimize content delivery for the next generation of mobile devices in an effort to maintain and expand its presence in the mobile porn market.

"We're by no means losing sight of the iPhone market, but we are definitely looking ahead to the impact of the Palm Pre, and ensuring that our sites are compatible with the Pre and other new devices that are soon to be released," Kysar said. "The march of mobile progress is really a sprint, and you can't afford to take your eye off the ball, or major opportunities will pass you by."

Pink Visual is also attempting to stay ahead of the curve by producing 3D content that works in conjunction with the Wazabee 3Dee Shell which offers consumers iPhone-based 3D viewing, without having to wear special glasses.

"The 3D content is a real challenge to produce, and we're still getting our feet wet in that area," Kysar said. "As it stands now, we just have a few short-run clips up and running, but our first full-length 3D porn webisode is slated to hit iPinkVisual.com within the next 30 days."

Beyond that, Kysar is understandably quiet about what's next for Pink Visual.

"The windows of opportunity in this space seem to open and close almost daily," Kysar said. "To the extent that we can stay ahead of the market, we're going to do so, and we're not going to hand out too many breadcrumbs for the competition to follow."
