Private Media, Inc., and Video Secrets Media (VS Media) announced a joint venture to develop and market PrivateChannels.com, an online, video on-demand engine containing "the world's most elite adult video content." Private Media Inc, one of the few publicly traded adult companies, will provide the content while VS Media will use their large Webmaster distributor base to get the goods out.
"There were really two main reasons that we were attracted to Private. One was their tremendous global recognition and also their commitment to the highest quality adult video," Greg Clayman, Managing Partner of VS Media says. VS Media began in 1996 to provide live adult interactive entertainment online. Along with providing quality content, Clayman hopes that Webmasters will be attracted to the "reasonably priced" monthly fee of $500.00.
Private Media Inc., who has been in the adult industry for 34 years since publishing the first full-color adult publication, Private, publishes and distributes magazines and videos, in over 35 countries. "People often make the comparison to us being the MGM of the adult video industry," says the company's Internet Director, Bjorn Skarlen. Private released its Apollo 13 porn-imitation, Uranus Experiment, this past April, which explores the male-orgasm-at-zero-gravity theme. The planned Uranus Experiment II will feature Prodigy and Massive Attack on its soundtrack, says Skarlen. Mainstream groups rarely do soundtracks for porn videos.
The Barcelona-based company collaborates with many companies and sees VS Media as a valuable building block on the Internet because of their strong Webmaster network. Both companies pride themselves in not cutting corners when it comes to product.
