I came across an interview with George Duroy, the owner of BelAmi.  It's a really interesting read.  In it he talks about how he runs his business and what he sees as the future of the gay porn industry.  He also discusses some of the controverisal issues his company endures from bareback porn to twin brothers having sex.  You can read the entire interview over at the Lavendar Lounge.  Below are a couple of interesting quotes.

Bel Ami was originally created as an American company and moved to Central Europe only after George W. Bush declared eradicating pornography to be one of his priorities. 

Bel Ami is famous for its models; how do you find them?

Nowadays, mostly through scouts. We have four full-time scouts working exclusively for us and there are others who work with us on a non-exclusive basis.

 "Gay" porn was never dominated by gay models, and in the case of Bel Ami, not even half of the employees are gay. (In the last three years, we had seven babies born to our employees.) Gay porn should be more accurately called "all-male porn".

I have the good luck to work in a country where, in the first twenty-five years of the AIDS epidemic, only eight people died of HIV infection as compared to 400,000 in the U.S. If I lived in California, I certainly wouldn't shoot without condoms

What's happening in the business now is a real massacre, no doubt about it. But not all the pigs are being slaughtered. The biggest swine are dying, but many sucklings are doing just fine. Commercial porn won't disappear, but after this is over, the whole porn business will be a VERY different place.

I'd prefer to be out of the DVD business because to run both online and film operations is simply too much work. So I hope that within the next two years we would become an exclusively online business.
