disagree  mattranslate: commerce -> distribution, vente. Ici, il est aussi question de production (cf. film star and entrepreneur)

société spécialisée dans l'érotisme


Explanation:
autre suggestion

puisque c'est une "alternative porn company", peut-être que cela pourra convenir. érotique a l'avantage de couvrir plus de choses que porno.

à ceux qui voudraient me faire remarquer qu'il ne faut pas confondre érotisme et pornographie, je leur dis d'avance que je connais la différence
