PROFILE |
 |
It doesn't take much imagination to see why Vivid Entertainment Group is so popular with some film buffs. The company is the world's top producer of adult films, releasing some 80 new titles each year. Fans of the form know the company best for its "Vivid Girls," a gaggle of porn starlets like Ginger Lynn signed to exclusive contracts. It sells its titles to the rental market and direct to consumers through retail outlets and its online mail-order site (vividvideo.com). Vivid also distributes the films through cable and satellite pay-per-view. Steve Hirsch and David James, who together started the company in 1984, control Vivid.
