completely off-topic and totally thread jacking.. but the porn industry is bigger than warner brothers and any other major motion picture studio out there.. if you were around during the first format wars (VHS vs. Betamax).. you would know that history DOES indeed repeat itself.. it was the porn industry that helped the VHS format win over the betamax.. So yes, although it might seem dirty and perverted to be thinking about blu-ray pornography, it is an important factor.. well, WAS an important factor because we all know that blu-ray has clearly won the battle.. give the porn industry a couple of points for helping.

but you're right.. BD > HD..

with that being said.. i'm going out today to buy my first blu-ray player.. a PS3

TOTALLY wrong on porn... sorry. We have the internet now which allows people unfettered access to pornography. Although people will buy porn, It will be dwarfed by internet usage. It won't affect this like VHS v. Beta Max. it's a totally different dynamic.

Let us know what your setup is and how you plan on enjoying Blu in the future. We're all here to help and for your first batch of threads you start, make sure you have some tough skin!

porn played an important part in the vhs-beta war...because that was the only real way to get porn (aside from going to a theater or picking up a magazine).

Today its free all over the internet...so its not a factor anymore.
