Explode?!? Do you think people who don’t already pay for porn/sexual IOT devices/digital sexual pleasure content will start to enter this emerging market? Do you think the same customer base will drastically increase spending?

- I’m genuinely curious and surprised by the confidence.

I'm sure there are millions of people who visit pornhub that would never have visited a pornographic cinema (or whatever they were called).

[drewmol]

Agreed. But there are much fewer people who pay for pornhub. Fewer who would buy a $3500 device just for a more immersive pornhub experience. I highly doubt these people are in apple’s target market.

But there a enough people paying for other devices that enhance. Full on silicon body molds of your favorite performer, remote devices to allow for others to stimulate you, get them all connected into an app so that both participants can interact and you have the sexual encounter these people can only dream of

I think it is easy to severely underestimate the number of persons who engage with porn and NSFW content everyday, along with the volume of content.

One quick glance at the Reddit hysteria will show that people are particularly bummed about the NSFW changes. Like, really bummed. Same with Pornhub limiting its service in Utah, and people of Utah immediately learning what VPNs are. Additionally, there are human trafficking rings around the world that thrive for a reason (e.g., Epstein). With VR you have sensorimotor gadgets you can sync to your virtual world, and it is completely immersive. As you become desensitized to one fetish, you can purchase a new fetish experience. Porn is a lucrative path.

For me, I like humans, the "in real life" kind to be exact. So it's not a hot selling point, for me. I do like to study how humans "human." And porn is front and center for many people, for all sorts of different reasons.
