Porn Industry Mulls Next Generation-DVD
MBCook writes "ZDNet has an interesting article about how the porn industry might end up deciding the outcome of the HD-DVD/Blu-ray debate. One side likes the higher capacity of Blu-ray, while others like the lower costs of producing HD-DVDs. Manufacturing 11,000 titles a year, the industry would have a sizeable say in the debate."
Blew Ray?
The bigger the better!
Sorry, couldn't help myself.
I just thought it was all in the internet?
I would rather be ashes than dust!
Funny thing is, I've never finished watching one either. /seen the first 6 minutes several times tho...
People find it strange that I don't know how to juggle or tap dance.
"10-foot pole" in a discussion on porn isn't a term I'm going to touch with a...
One thing I wouldn't want to watch in HD pron though... those rear end going on stuff might show more detail (and colors) than I could stomach :)
Turning it off after the first 4 minutes isn't a failure of the porn, it's lack of stamina.

Maybe if they'd stop selling those "all weekend erection" pills they wouldn't need longer porn movies.
The next Cmdr Taco duplicate will be ready soon, but subscribers can beat the rush and see it early!
11000 porn titles a year? Goodness, who's actually watching all that? I rented a few porn movies myself when I was young
Back in the day when we were boys we had one (1) playboy for the whole neighborhood.
And we were grateful.
Take the cheese to sickbay, the doctor should see it as soon as possible - B'Elanna Torres, "Learning Curve"
"We're kind of riding it out a little further to see where the trend goes," said Jackie Ramos, an executive in the DVD division at leading porn producer Wicked Pictures. that's a classic if i've ever seen one
When I tell an object to delete this, am I killing it or telling it to kill me?

"surgical SCARES"... now that's a Freudian slip!
If someone says he and his monkey have nothing to hide, they almost certainly do.

Luxury. When I was a lad you were lucky to sneak a copy of National Geographic from neighbor's mailbox. But you try to tell that to kids today...
Don't forget GPS, electric typewriters, electric toothbrushes, space-age polymers, bicycle protective gear, the camera-stylo, the "you must be at least this tall" sign at amusement parks, flexicuffs, any number of gadgets and machines the proper use of which I cannot even imagine, and reality tv.
I'm looking forward to multiple commentary tracks, from the producer/director and the actors.
"This montage here is homage to Eisenstein's battle on the frozen lake in Alexander Nevsky, and the backdoor finale evokes the Teutonic Knights' flight from camp"; "That one line, 'any of you girls order a pizza?' took me fifteen takes, and it just didn't seem right. Then Bob took me aside and said to just give it my all, and *wham* I nailed it".
National Geographic? You were lucky having pictures. We had Reader's Digest.
Maybe you're watching the wrong porn?

You had paper??
We lied down on the grass, looking up at the clouds and imagining they were in sexual positions...

It's not the size, it's what you do with it!
"Adult film producers want the higher quality picture as well as extra space for creative expression--like giving viewers choice of camera angles."
Well, the Saturn V is just a big phallus, generating a lot of thrust.
Money for nothing, pix for free
... size really _does_ matter
One side likes the higher capacity of Blu-ray
you had clouds and imagination? we just had the neighbourhood slut who'd lift her skirts for 10 cts, and we'd all crowd round...
No one can understand the truth until he drinks of coffee's frothy goodness.

What a clever way to fill up that extra space.
AGGGH. STRUGGLING...
Must not... take... bait...
Slashdot quality declines as the number of hot grits posts decreases. - Provolt's Law, Apr-09-2005
I had to recall the exact time offset and rewind to there
;)
Every VCR I've had automatically rewound to the point where the tape was when it was inserted if you hit the rewind button.
I guess porn drove that innovation too
If I have been able to see further than others, it is because I bought a pair of binoculars.
I concur.
We dance to all the wrong songs.
--Refused.
I did even better -- I accidentally recorded over one for about 30 seconds before I realized what I was doing.
"Well, no, Dad, I don't know how Star Trek made its way onto your tape, and in fact I'm shocked, shocked, that you even own such material."
I'll have you know that there WAS, in fact, sex with a goat in that movie.
And it was MAGNIFICENT!
Wal-mart shoppin' red-state values voter thinks homosexuality = bad, but girl-on-girl porn = good.
Holy Coitus Interuptus, Batman! I'm not amazed at the volume as much as I as am amazed about the creativity behind actually titling that many porn movies.
I imagine a brain storming session migh go like this:
"Bob, what do we have for this week?"
"Well, Tony, we have 4 girl on girl releases, 2 double penetration features, 3 gay features, and a couple of light one-on-one featurettes for cable."
"What are we going with?"
"Glad you asked, Tony. Right now, we've got Hair Pie Tango II, Bushmasters, Vagitarians from Outer Space, and Lesbian Luau; for the 2 on 1s, we have Git-R-Done and Heads or Tails?; for the gay demographics, we've got Mandango, Cock-A-Doodle-Doo, and Bunghole Burglars III. For the cable features, we're going with Flesh Fetish and Return to Blue Lagoon II.
"Great. We'll get 'em to graphics for the cover design and then send over to marketing..."
I might know what I'm talkin' about, but then again, this is Slashdot...
I remember going to one of my friends archaeology lectures on a whim and it turned out to be all about sex and archaeology.
I don't remember all the details but I do remember that they had dug up what were obviously wooden dildos. However, when they were discovered the attitude was that they just could not be dildos, so for a long time they were classified as 'arrow straighteners'.
I'll never forget the picture of the large double ended arrow straightener the lecturer showed us next.
