I'm sorry but this just doesn't make sense. You're friend told you that his company is involved in an anti-competitive conspiracy? If this sort of thing is going on, its not the sort of thing people in the know talk about. On the other hand, people who have no clue what's going on might say something like that to impress others.

Bet you did not know that GENERAL MOTORS owns the closed circuit satellite distribution network that pumps XXX movies into almost every hotel room in North America ???

and that is just a very small kick in the bucket ...
I don't think anyone with any awareness of the adult industry disputes this. However, big business has not really developed much of an online presence so far. However, the day is coming when they will, and that will be the end of most adult sites we know to today. Those that remain will probably be the online equivalent of pirate radio.
