A bidding war to buy the Kim Kardashian sex tapes is emerging. Originally a mystery buyer represented by a lawyer approached Vivid Entertainment to buy the rights to tape and completely remove it from the market. Prices as high as $30 million were mentioned by Vivid’s CEO Steven Hirsch.
But now their is another party interested in owning the tape – Pornhub.com, which bills itself as the largest adult website on the planet, also wants in on the action. The new interested party plans to do the exact opposite of the mystery buyer – they want to put the tape online for free!
In a letter to Hirsch the site says they are willing to offer $5 million for the tape. Although this is less than the $30 million Hirsch is trying to extort from the ‘mystery’ buyer – who is most Kim Kardashian – it is a real offer and changes the economics of the situation radically.
Pornhub.com, which is 100% free, says they “respectfully disagree” with Hirsch’s value of the tape, stating they feel the DVD market is “dying” and online is where it’s at.
With two parties claiming they want to buy the tape a bidding war is the logical next step.
Kim better get that tape fast – before its all over the net forever and for free.
