as you say - what the viewers want
Who do you ask ?
Those already on a subscription system without pornography ?
Those with subscription to an existing offshore erotic channel ?
Those that can view foreign TV within the UK and receive additional erotic channels by any means ?
A general proportion of the whole of the UK satellite and non satellite viewing public ?
Without checking ALL the above options, its impossible to find if a R18 channel (or greater) is likely to be favourably viewed, for the purpose of checking how far the content would be deemed
1) suitable for all
2) enough to satisfy
3) profitable for the provider
4) likely to succeed when pitched in with the competition
5) continue to be profitable
One supplier of satellite goods in E London is always promoting 'new' hard core channels from satellite, all of which seem (allegedly) to have similar content and are in most ways contain content able to morph into each new channel.
Its a clever way of introducing new and relatively young viewers into satellite, riske TV has always been quite an incentive to tell the neighbours to get stuffed when the sun blocker goes up, but its simply not the mainstay of most viewers - there are only 107 sexual positions anyway, with or without the divers helmet and/or swarfega. |
