Stop the console war, porn has spoken

(copy/paste from 1up.com)

You knew it was going to happen. There were already been pornographic titles announced for HD-DVD at CES, but Xbiz reports Digital Playground is the first adult film studio to publicly align itself with one of the next-generation disc formats - and they've picked Blu-ray.
Digital Playground, like many companies, realizes Blu-ray and HD-DVD are so similar and choosing between them hasn't been simple. Ultimately, though, the promised install base from PlayStation 3 and Blu-ray's security functions won them over. "They'e pretty similar in every other way," Digital Playground co-founder Joone said. "We went with Blu-ray because storage and security are the main issues for us."



Even Microsoft has said they may release a Blu-ray adaptor for Xbox 360 if the format prevails. They're already planning an external HD-DVD disc drive for release later this year, though they haven't nailed down any specifics since their announcement at CES.



PlayStation 3 is fast becoming an important point to companies on the fence between formats, and the machine's market penetration will likely determine much of the format war. "We see PlayStation 3 as the Trojan horse that will lead the way and Blu-ray as the format that will be around longer - and we can do more interesting things with it," says Joone.

 

Is it ok to laugh ?

Sorry, I think it is special, and very funny

 

i thought the porno industry already choosed HD-DVD?

 

BluRay allows for more DRM capabilities than HD-DVD. With the PS3 being BluRay right from the get-go and the fact that it will still have the same market share the PS2 and PSX had, its no wonder they went with BluRay. More security to prevent illegal sharing and that PS3 will most likely be the first BluRay disc player most consumers will own. I just hope the PS3's fast foward feature in the disc player is not 2x like the PS2's DVD player..

 

damnit. I will buy a ps3 one day, but i would still like to see the new giant of video game fail, and that microsoft or nintendo take the place. I just dont like the way they see games, the way they want the industry to go, their phylosophy.

Sorry people, but I admire that Norwegian kid.

 

So, the PS3's 'market penetration' was a key factor in the porn industry's decision?

 

its all about penetration baby. :dance:

 

People still buy pornos when there is the internet?

 

The internet is really, really great!

 

why does porn need hd?

high resolution won't make busted chicks any less busted and i don't need 7.1 surround to know she's faking it.

 

Here ya go!

The internet is even better!

Nearly busted my arse laughing when I first heard...
