Ironically the rep from Bangbros is mistaken in that Blu-ray has the larger install base.

Considering how much free porn is all over the Internet? I very highly doubt it.

But WHATEVER your personal feelings about porn, it is STUPID to thumb your nose at ANY media provider willing to add titles to the catalog of software capable of playing on your format.... simply arrogant, self rightious, puritanical, stupidity.

Yeah, but still I don't see a reason for BDA to prohibit any content. WTF wrong with them if that is true...

I think people are moving away from 'Discs' for there porn and increasingly using the internet. I don't think that HD-DVD will be around long enough for any great number of porn releases or any decent HD-DVD porn market penetration. The porn industry has not announced any titles yet or even when they will start releasing titles for HD-DVD. For those reasons I don't think that porn will have much impact if any on the war.

If HD DVD wins because of porn, that is the end of home theater.

Porn is a SECONDARY consideration. They aren't going to deny their kids Disney for porn. And if they do, then society itself is in serious trouble.

And I was sure they've learned from their own mistakes.
Besides to me it's more of an issue with freedom of speech, press and all that.

I guess it can go both ways. In Japan, porn is on BD (there was a thread on it), but in the home of the brave and free, porn is on HD DVD.

Porn will go where the money is.

As we know, all the PS/3 gamers spend most of their spare time going dancing with their girlfriends. No need for them to want it.

Right now, Blu-Ray and HD-DVD are film enthusiast formats. I honestly don't think Porn is going to be a factor yet (if ever).
