No porn on the Blu-Ray discs!

Has Sony gone mad? Prominent adult movie producer Digital Playground (site) says it is forced to use HD DVD instead of Blu-ray, because Sony does not allow XXX-rated movies to be released on Blu-ray.

It does not matter how you stand to porn. It is here and it is a massive business. It is also an industry that is an early adopter for new media technology. VHS might not have won with out the adult film industry adopting it.

German Heise has interviewed Joone the founder of Digital Playgrounds at the AVN 2007 show in Las Vegas. Joone says actually said last year he is committed to Blu-ray. Now they announced four HD DVD titles in the United States. In the interview Joone says he was forced to use HD DVD, because no Blu-ray disc manufacturer would make his discs, because Sony was against it and they would loose their license.

If this holds true, Blu-ray is at a major disadvantage and could fail.

So Sony is going to prevent Blu-Ray disc manufacturers from publishing discs that contain porn! :error

Seems like they are shooting themselves in the foot, big time. Do they expect all those people who have Blu-Ray players (anyone?!) to just.. stop buying porn??:helpme

If thats true, the HD-DVD just won the standards war..

i hope so

Wow thats a big mistake for Blu Ray if thats true.

I dont think there is some future in neither porn or "normal" movies on discs. Like Bill Gates said, neither HD-DVD or Blu-Ray will last for long. In few years everything will be streamed/downloads. Its all about speed and technology.

LOL, that's still the stupidest decision that an owner of a contested format could make...

sony are idiots
i hate thier attempt to introduce new standards and then screw it up=(

Yep, looks like a bad idea

haha. what a god awful decision by sony.

#1 reason betamax lost the battle vs vhs.........

no porn on betamax........you would think they woulda learned

wow.... buncha dumbasses

If true they seriously just fucked themselves up. Porn has been the single deciding factor in every technological advance during the last thirty-five years.

I'd really like to hear a good reason from Sony. I'm sure they've learned from previous mistakes, so there really MUST be an amazing reason for it.
