In some news that aroused my interest (yes, my ears pricked up), US phone companies are going to relax their stiff regulation of adult material on mobile. In Europe, things are already quite loose, with a fairly erect market of £390m! Previously those regulations bound up tightly companies looking to release their material, but now the floodgates appear to be opening.
Obviously given that porn was what led the internet to grow so quickly, the same will now most likely happen in the Mobile world, with a veritable explosion of juicy content – and with 200 million US users to potentially deliver to, that may or may not be a hard task!
Will porn monetise well on mobile in the US – or is the market going to go limp before it takes off? Thoughts (clean ones), please 
(And yes, that was an attempt to see how many big innuendos could be stuffed in a story that was far too small – oops, there’s another one!)

About The Author
Ben Robinson
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
