Re: Sony still don't want porn on blu-ray

Aye, Good read

Was very surprised when the Adult Industry sided with BR at first.

Now it seems that it's swung full circle and it's full steam ahead HD-DVD.

If all that is true about Sony then, well poo poo on them

So your saying you've never produced or watched a pirate dvd?

I was just getting the point across. fact is , porn on any format has always been
in high demand. look at what happened to betamax.

Neither is trolling - but that doesn't seem to stop you Why not think for a few minutes and then compose a proper response rather than your normal 'jab' at HD DVD supporters/news? There is a good argument to be had arguing that high def porn will not effect the war - but it could also have a massive effect - it is after all a multi-million pound industry. It could also be argued that this whole 'porn industry backs HD DVD' is merely a symptom of the cheaper production costs of HD DVD versus the more limited facilities of BluRay.

I would suggest a great number of people who would rather give their credit card details to a major store rather than www.fatblokesdodgypornwebsite.com (MODS: this is not a real address!)

As for my 'argument' - my first post in this thread covers that off nice and succintly.

I think we can take the second post as an apology for the first.

Re: Sony still don't want porn on blu-ray

Great article.

What I find interesting is the difference in cost of replicating discs:
