ZENRA I totally understand that. But I don't think it's a bad comparison. And like you said, some of them appears in softcore scenes, other than their main studio(s). So even though those studios belongs to the same entity, It's all about what's in a contract.
What I'm saying is that it's not impossible; If you combine everything what's happening in Japanese Porn industry (and the includes the New Law) something needs to change as far marketing goes. _Whether it's small or big changes, it can't stay the same. Otherwise, they will hurt their sales even more.
If we take a look at what's happening here on SLR, the gap between each new releases are significantly lower on some (if not all) of the JAV studios' scenes here compared before. Why is that? Just like technology, any industries will evolve eventually.
And again, connections can play a role here; SLR could negotiate with a studio and offer them money and some perks after the contracts expires; something like, in exchange for 2-5 collaboration scenes with one of your Exclusive Actresses within one year, SLR will increase the amount of money your studio can earn on sexlikereal.com for the same duration, on top of the initial payment. Or give them some other benefits. (And this will also act as an advertisements for SLR, so it's win-win for both studios.)
I understand we all have our own experiences and opinions, but we gotta try to think positive. And the discussion we are having might play a role at some point, so thank you, bro.
But of course, all of these are for a very long distant future... Or it might not take that long. And maybe it will happen. Or maybe it won't. Who knows... All I'm saying is it's not impossible.
