In SC's early days, when it was just Sean Cody himself running the site, he would scout for models himself. He would sometimes bring women along with him to find hot guys. The women would talk to the guys and Sean would then pitch the idea of coming to his studio.

As the site grew more popular, he would have his models scout for potential guys and/or refer their friends. Eventually, as SC became established as *the* premiere gay porn site, the models would submit their photos and videos to the company itself.

Sean certainly had an eye for finding male beauty and knowing what his subscribers wanted to see.
How did he lose/why did he give up control of the website?
 
He sold it to MindGeek in 2015. My guess is that, after making millions, he just decided he'd retire and enjoy his life.
Plus it gets tiring have to shoot/edit scenes then watch your hard work end up on a torrent site before the day is through.

He most likely made a mint off of the sale as well. I'm just speculating, but it might have been a fortune. Sean Cody was arguably the best gay porn site ever. I still am awed by the quality of masculine, in shape handsome men he was able to recruit for his web site. Would be amazing if he came out of retirement and recruited those guys back on a new web site, maybe "sean cody, the next chapter" Seeing them all back in action would be amazing. Pipe dream I know, but maybe another "sean cody" will come around and we will have a gay porn renaissance!

Heartbreaking that so much of his work including the photo shoots and videos are gone for good other then the ones you can get from sites like this one.

That'll probably never happen lol The standards of what gay porn is are completely different. The look, the cinematography and the ability to recruit genuine nobodies were all pretty much killed by the Internet lol No one is going to risk the exposure or having to have sex with strangers (even if the guy is gay, not everyone is that open) when they can just open a mediocre OF page and get the money instead of having their personal info leaked like a lot of people were doing in the past (and are still doing now)
 
anyone have Jim solo from 2008? or an archive of old deleted scenes that would be better.
I could swear I had Jim's solo somewhere on one of my flash drives. Can't find it. I do have Jim and Greg's duo.

Did Luke only do the 2 videos, one with Jamie and one with Ethan? Or were there any others?
He does have a solo, but I don't have it.

Here is a list you can cross reference (at least for videos up to June 2020). I'm not sure who is the original author, but it's a handy tool.
