These excerpts taken from the PRVT 10-K filed Apr 15, 2009. Market Opportunity Demand for adult entertainment products has grown substantially during the past decades. We believe that two principal factors are driving growth in our industry: the relaxation of social and legal restrictions on distribution of adult entertainment products and new technologies that facilitate the distribution of high quality adult media content to consumers in the privacy of their own homes. As a result of liberalized regulation of adult entertainment products, we now distribute our products in physical form in more than 40 countries worldwide with an aggregate current population of 1.1 billion, as compared to six European countries with a population of 144 million when the current management took over in 1991. We expect this liberalizing trend to continue.

The proliferation of easy to use electronic equipment, such as DVD players, which allow consumers to view high quality video products in the privacy of their home, has boosted demand for adult media content compatible with these formats. For example, DVD players have been adopted by consumers faster than any other electronic device ever, including the cell phone and personal computer. Also, the evolution of the Internet as a channel of commerce and content distribution has stimulated additional demand for adult media content. In addition, advances in cable, satellite and hotel communications systems furnish another channel for the delivery of media content, including adult entertainment, into private homes, hotels and businesses. More recently, the telecommunications industry has shown considerable interest in the use of adult content on hand-held devices such as mobile telephones and other wireless activated devices. This provides an additional and exciting new source of potential revenues for us as one of the principal providers of adult content. We expect these regulatory and technological developments to fuel increasing demand worldwide for adult media content, including demand for our products. In addition, we believe that market demand for content to fill new media outlets will lead mainstream media content providers to seek still more adult media content in the future. We expect that the high quality standards of the mainstream media, technological demands of multiple delivery formats and global marketing and distribution costs will increase capital requirements for providers of adult media content. While the adult entertainment industry is currently characterized by a large number of relatively small producers and distributors, we believe that the factors discussed above will cause smaller, thinly capitalized producers to seek partners or exit the adult entertainment business, leading to a consolidation of the adult entertainment industry.
