He started transferring and sharing some of these films to VHS, which earned him a call from David F. Friedman and a lesson in copyright. Thus Mike the film enthusiast/pirate became a legitimate film distributor, publishing the works of...

Oftentimes, pornography studies is so busy working to legitimate hard core texts that we sometimes forget about the wide-world of soft core cinema.
