    Study Notes

    Digital Adult Content

    • Digital adult content, often referred to as erotica or pornography, has evolved from traditional formats like SMS to include various digital services like streaming, downloads, and video chats.
    • Juniper Research focuses on the legal market for adult content in the UK, excluding illegal content such as child pornography.
    • The adult entertainment industry has significantly impacted the development of e-commerce and online video streaming, even preceding companies like Facebook, Google, and Amazon.

    Key Service Types

    • Images: Digital adult content includes downloadable or viewable images on devices like mobile phones, tablets, and connected TVs. These images can be static or animated, depicting amateurs, porn stars, glamour models, and even celebrities. There is a large volume of free images available, although some content is billed on a download or subscription basis.

    • Video-based services: 3G, 4G, and Wi-Fi connectivity have revolutionized video-based services, making high-quality video streaming faster and easier for users on the go. Services like SugarDVD offer subscription-based streaming on various devices including PS3, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, Roku, Boxee, Google TV, iOS, Windows, Mac, and Android.

    • Text-based services: SMS-based adult services are declining in popularity, specifically in developed markets. While still available, these services face competition from growing markets for adult videos and the general decline of SMS usage.

    • Video Chats: Video chats, or live webcams, have become increasingly popular in recent years, allowing users to engage with models via video or text/instant messaging while watching live streams. A significant proportion of users engage repeatedly with the same cam girl or hostess.

    Mobile Porn 2.0

    • Web 2.0 has influenced the proliferation of User Generated Content (UGC) and social networks, which has led to the development of adult "tube" sites like PornHub. These sites allow users to upload and rate content, interact with other members, and generally function like YouTube.

    The App Store as a Method of Content Delivery

    • The app store is popular for both developers and users for several reasons:
      • Low barriers to entry for developers: The cost to participate in app store developer programs is minimal.
      • Monetization potential for developers: App stores provide developers with a revenue share from app sales.
      • User-friendly ecosystem: Major app stores are integrated into an ecosystem that includes devices and operating systems (OSs). This familiarity makes it easier for users to navigate and use the app.
    • The adult industry has faced challenges in recent years as traditional content delivery methods, like SMS and Pay-per-Video, have declined in revenue and popularity.
    • This trend stems from free content available through alternative sources, such as tube sites and pirated downloads.

    Digital Adult Content on Connected TVs

    • Connected TVs, those with broadband connections via game consoles, Blu-ray players, set-top boxes, or smart TVs, have enabled the direct streaming of adult content to televisions.
