"no one is using version control systems, most people hardly know the difference between a CMS and a framework, most still update their websites with FTP, virtual hosting is still a scary beast, cPanel is the norm, they still refer to web apps as "scripts""
Wrong. At least where I work. But I do still call web apps "scripts" because 1) I'm old and 2) that's what they are.
From the comments here, most of the developers commenting on the adult industry are being fairly liberal with the term "industry". Sort of like equating the slot machines at the local bar with the casino industry as a whole. Ignore the fact that Apple is adopting business models pioneered in the online adult industry, or that PayPal was years behind what was offered in the adult industry regarding credit card security.
One thing the adult industry can't push on right now is iOS Apps, where most of the action is taking place. But companies like GroupOn, Foursquare, and others are using technology and business models that adult has been using for a long time.
