Operators Want Hardcore Porn

Saying that operators are demanding more explicit adult content, The Erotic
Networks plans to launch two new channels in January: TeN Blue and TeN Max.

TeN Blue will feature 'moderately edited' amateur and ethnic porn, while TeN
Max will be a 'best-of' clip service featuring 'moderately edited' porn.

TEN president Ken Boenish said the company has commitments from operators
totaling 750,000 addressable subscribers, including one top-10 MSO.

Boenish said the affiliates don't want to be named, as often is the case with
adult-programming distributors. 'We find that if we start talking about our MSO
partners . it can definitely throw cold water on the advancement of our
business,' he added.
