On the last day of Digital Hollywood, a fascinating discussion on the adult content industry and how it is evolving, driven by broadband on the online side and by higher speed networks on the mobile side. The conventional wisdom has been that the adult content industry adopts new technologies and business models first and then mainstream co-opts some of them. While that is still true, there are some trends which the mainstream content companies are driving, and arguably now adult companies are looking to follow them.

The panelists included Marc Brown, head of mobile TV at Waat Media; Chris Petrovic, VP, Biz dev, Playboy Entertainment Group; Jeff Random, Throb Consulting; and Jay Grdina, CEO, ClubJenna; moderated by Tom Hymes, Communications Director, Free Speech Coalition.
