In response to Web Grab and Brian Micklethwait, I doubt it. 18DS was doing just fine until they tried to fix it when it wasn't broken, and now it is broken. The promised website is not up and running, there is no means of feedback any more, and there is no way to play material in the archive. Perhaps, they should attempt what Ch5 did to attract an audience and stream soft porn?
