Titan Media is a San Francisco-based gay pornographic studio founded by director and cinematographer Bruce Cam in 1995.
The company grew to become one of the largest producers of gay adult content in the world. According to Cam, the company was created to "Eroticize safer-sex and portray positive gay sexuality, with a wide range of men, set in the panorama of nature." Consequently, all of its films are condoms-only, the company does not film bareback scenes. Titan is owned by parent company Io Group, Inc. The studio has won several gay pornographic film awards.
Titan Media was founded in 1995 by Bruce Cam. It has grown to become one of the largest gay porn film studios. In 2001, the company launched a mid-priced product line under the ManPlay brand, and launched a line of products with younger men under the TitanMen Fresh label. In 2005, Titan acquired former gay pornographic studio MSR, and has been re-releasing its old videos on DVD.
In 2007, Cam refused to accept a David Award because of the awards' acceptance of bareback films.
In 2008, they were against a proposed bill by Charles Calderon to increase the California porn tax to 25%.
In 2011, Falcon Studios, Raging Stallion and Titan Media joined with the anti-piracy company Porn Guardian.
In November 2003 Io Group filed a lawsuit against Larry Flynt Publications alleging copyright infringement. It alleged that 220 Titan Media photographs were published on the LFP owned website StudClub.
In December 2003 the company asked file sharing website Kazaa to block its users from downloading 1,400 of its films. Titan alleged that Kazaa's owner Sharman Networks had the capacity to monitor activity on the network through "spyware" installed on users' computers, and that it could use that capability to block its users from downloading its films. In January 2004 Titan wrote to the Senate Judiciary Committee, complaining that Kazaa had refused to cooperate. Kazaa had told a Senate committee in 2003 that it would improve its content filters to help users avoid offensive material.
