Is Gawker Media tiring of the "clicks for cash" method of generating revenue and getting into the undoubtedly more lucrative porn distribution business?

Eagle-eyed visitors to Gawker's pervy kid sister Flesbot—we know you're out there—may have noticed that an ad for a service billed as "Fleshbot Video on Demand" now appears on the site's sidebar (NSFW, obviously) Click on the ad and you're lead to a page on which you can sign up for an account that lets you pay for streaming Fleshbot-curated porn by the minute. (1,000 minutes will cost you $84.95; 15 minutes are yours for just $3.95.)

Fleshbot editor John D. says the initiative is simply an attempt to provide the site's readers with more of what they want. "It's an affiliate program with AEBN, a company which offers streaming video and similar affiliate programs to many adult websites; the "Fleshbot Video On Demand Theatre" is simply a (yes) co-branded portal to AEBN's inventory with a certain amount of customization to reflect our demographic." (Interestingly enough, Gawker overlord Nick Denton said it was the "first I've seen or heard of it" when we showed him the ad earlier this morning.)

John D. certainly has his work cut out for him in terms of customizing AEBN's inventory to reflect Fleshbot's demographic: Currently, AEBN's three top "Most Watched" videos are Transsexual Prostitutes 48, She-Male Strokers 24, and Goodhandy's Shemale Hardcore.
