We have a distributor and my movies are in German stores and German online stores. But when you buy a film from us, in our online store, we earn like 10 times more than when you buy it after the whole chain of distribution. You see the difference, don’t you?

It’s nothing about purity, German laws are often a little “outdated”. Get yourself a local distributor (shouldn’t be too difficult)…

??? My comment was removed? A little bit strange!

I am the author of the first German book about blogs and one of those who informed about your manifest.

Surprised!

Situation in Germany:

It’s unlikely that this is solved soon.
Hardcore pornography indeed is allowed in germany (exceptions in §184 StGB you cited), but it is strictly prohibited to allow minors to access it.

While in the US a simple “Are you over 18?” question as the first site of a porno-website seems to be sufficient, in Germany the age has to be checked. This also applies for buying pornography via mail order (and there it even has to be ensured that the recipient is the same as the buyer).

Normally this is done with postal age-checks (using an approved adult verification system (AVS)).

Ironically not the recipient is chargeable, but the sender which can not be taken to court as he is not in the country.

Situation of mail order from other countries:

But even if you would implement an approved AVS the mailings would still be illegal according to §15 JuSchG (5) which prohibits importing via mail order.

I suspect you send from within the EU, which normally means the packages are seldomly checked. But this is of course not “solution”.

BTW: Until 2004 mail order of pornography was prohibited completely in Germany. So it was even worse…
