    VR is dead. VR is now being sold as 360 cameras

    It is interesting to see that the VR hype seems to have died.

    VR now seems to be sold as 360 format for bloggers and dashcams rather than for VR footage.Not so long ago it was about making VR footage, but the new 360 cameras do not seem to bother with that as a sell, but rather a way to get steady footage for such as bloggers.

    A way to select footage after you have shot, to produce non VR footage.

      Yes headsets are being used - mostly for gaming but teens aren't our target market.

      Those who've tried headsets find them uncomfortable and not a pleasant experience.

      VR has it's place for those who like it - but the % is low for users. I wouldn't say it's dead - but certainly needs a breakthru in technology to make them useful for the common user out there - even so - the shooting of VR porn still needs to step up their game to create better angles and scenes that would make a scene worth saving.

      I truly wish the best for these pioneers but that's where they are NOT front runners of the industry in content or user choice.

          From what I've seen of VR in adult, the producers have no clue of what they are doing. Yeah POV is nice, but not when it's two inches from your face and you physically cannot back away from it.

            I just did a deep dive of my VOD and offsite content sales last month. YanksVR videos make 500% to 600% more than a Yanks 2D video does. The average VR consumer spends much more. VR and really AR are eventualities. The new Meta Quest 2 is amazing and the 3 will be even better. I do believe so much VR content is crap and many producers aren't doing it well. The headset is still an issue for porn, but it will continue to grow and evolve. The problem with adult is that unless something or someone explodes over night it is shit to them. They don't look deeply enough at what is really happening. After the initial investment, VR isn't that much more to produce, so 5x and 6x are awesome multiples.

              You are missing the mark on this one. VR, AR will get better and better and be around forever. If Zuck would hire some advisors on that end it would already be more heavily adopted.

              What you can do with simple things like this one are already insane.

              Notice it's sold out?
              Stop asking me about AI, the answer is yes.

                Even the Insta360 One R you mention still has problems with it as seen in most reviews

                Editing app requires latest smartphones
                Stitching lines sometimes visible
                Expensive
                Lens could be easy to lose

                Look I'm not here to battle since those who love VR are fanatical about it - I'm just stating my opinion that's all (like everyone else). I'd be happy to change it when I or if I see a VR clip that would actually give the effect in watching as you say it should. Until then I'm happy to support your efforts and hope that you actually do reach the heights you deserve - just don't claim them now when you have a % against it

                  I remember seeing Ice-T (rapper) on a show (I think New York Undercover) playing a game with a "VR Headset" like 30 years ago. Looked awesome and I wanted one.

                  Bought 2 Oculuses for the kids 2 Christmasses ago. They mostly stay in a toy box and the only one that plays is my autistic nephew who visits from time to time to scream at other kids on the god awful Rec Room.

                  At the moment, VR is trash. I have zero interest in rubbing one out with a VR headset on. Generally, when it's rub-out time, us men have to be ultra stealthy and swift ninjas that leave no trace of anything ever happening. All your senses have to be on point. A clunky headset with 2 bitch ass joy sticks seems like an unnecessary burden to someone who just wants to knock a quick solo one out unnoticed.

                  I can't speak for everybody, but when it comes to me and porn, VR has a lot of evolving to do before it can replace the convenience of my phone and hand. Gotta be able to feel it to be worth it. And honestly, just getting the real thing would still be better 🤷 seems like something that should be catered strictly for those incels and neckbeards who don't ever get the real thing at the moment.

                    Now if it was like the movie Brainstorm from 1983 where you put the headset on and actually can feel everything then count me in - though not sure I wouldn't do the same thing as the one guy and loop the fucking orgasm scene over and over until I had a heart attack LOL

                      Yes, plus its 'messy' when you cant actually see your junk... Unless you have a 'Posh Wank' and use a condom...

                            Not a fanatic, just my opinion but that con list is pretty weak. Latest smartphone out today will be had by all next year, this happens every year. Product not perfect, sure. Expen$ive, $500? Not really. I have been shooting for 22 years and that is not a bad price point. Easy to lose, so is my wallet, contacts and car keys, so don't lose it.

                            Not attacking you, just debating.
