YNOT – Five months after filing a merger notification in accordance with Austrian law, Reality Kings parent company RK Netmedia has become part of burgeoning adult industry conglomerate Manwin. A Manwin spokesperson said the RK operation team will remain, but expand.

In addition to a fleet of adult websites under the RealityKings.com banner, the deal also included Reality Kings TV, DVD production and sales, and the Nasty Dollars affiliate program.

Launched in 2000, RealityKings.com offers more than 7,000 scenes featuring a reported 5,000 adult performers. The website was among the first to specialize in the “reality porn” niche.

“We are happy to welcome Reality Kings to the Manwin family,” Managing Partner Fabian Thylmann said. “There have been few companies in the industry that have accomplished as much as Reality Kings has, and we look forward to building on Reality Kings’ established success.

“Acquiring these outstanding sites, products and human resources will allow Manwin to further expand its quality repertoire and reach an even greater, [more] diversified audience,” he added.
