For those of you with burning questions concerning Renderosity's switch to more "family friendly" or "professional" fare......here's a link for you.

G-rated material is more profitable than adult material. And by wide margins -- eight times more profitable, in fact.

From a purely pragmatic standpoint, your average business (website) owner is going to want to maximize their profits. And they do this by appealing to the largest crowd of customers that they possibly can. This is in the nature of a business.

If I were a website owner, I think that I'd take careful note of these matters...........

Of course, if one cares more about ideology than about getting rich -- then profit margins won't matter.

But if one is mercenary in their outlook, then this new study should speak volumes. Personally, I have no problems whatsoever with maximizing profits.
