I got this from techcrunch.com couldn’t resist sharing this video created by GOOD Magazine. It is stunning that how much actual money flows through porn and how many people are involved in the industry:

* 89% of porn is created in the U.S.
* $2.84 billion in revenue was generated from U.S. porn sites in 2006
* $89/second is spent on porn
* 72% of porn viewers are men
* 260 new porn sites go online daily
