Tactics in the Porn Industry's Fight Against Piracy
An anonymous reader writes "A C|Net article discusses the technological innovations being used by the porn industry to ensure they stay relevant (like streaming HD-quality feeds and remote interaction), as well as profitable. Live performances and cutting-edge technology combine to ensure a steady stream of revenue in the age of free downloads. 'Now Kink.com is on the cutting edge of the fight against video piracy. While mainstream entertainment outlets like Viacom and NBC complain noisily about YouTube, Kink.com, with neither the resources nor the mainstream appeal of its giant counterparts, is in an even tougher fight: Protecting the content it produces that's continually copied and reposted on the dozens of Web sites that traffic in poached adult material.'"
The idea of "remote interaction" sounds very promising. :D
Yes, first ensure your now dead cat is cooked though-out and start with the head.

Oh, so that's what they're calling it these days.

If you want some real insight, then skip the hands on research on the internet and go for scientific experimentation instead. Don't try handling this alone, get you a well qualified research assistant and make sure all safety devices are used appropriately. Wouldn't want your research assistant sueing you over accidental exposure to the results of the experiment. If you and the research assistant work really well together and especially if they contribute as much or more then you do, you might should consider a research partnership. If things don't work out so well you can always seek more info and/or other assistants. Performing a good in depth experiment and making sure to cover all points of interest with it can lead to some climatic results, good luck with your probing of this question.
It's not that ironic, the porn industry tends to be a missionary when it comes to new technology. Remember how everyone was saying sony was going to take it doggystyle because there was a blurb about the porn industry shifting to HD-DVD? As of yet, I don't see a dirty sanchez appearing on the Sony name, at least not from that "war".
/. It's really too bad, because it seems like their trying to play a rusty trombone, but they're felching it up. The profits they could receive from the menage-a-trois of dvds/online distribution/set-top sales(vod) would provide a real shocker if they could do so in a non-intrusive manner. I'd much rather be dry-humped then have to use the provided glory hole and hope there's not a pitbull on the other side.
You can't expect the *IAA to do a reverse cowgirl on their stand either, to do so would be to open themselves up to ridicule across the media band, not just in sixty-nine articles on
Sure porn piracy runs rampant, has for decades. But, umm, how much do they sell in a year? If you want to try fellatio on my conscious, it's not going to happen. I'll never pay for porn.
Don't worry if you're a kleptomaniac, you can always take something for it.
Realistically, do you really need HD video to watch a woman getting screwed by three hung guys?
This is a question you really don't want to ask the slashdot community, trust me....

The "remote interaction" technology will be used to reach out and grab your testicles until you can produce a valid credit card number.
Give a man a fish and you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish, and he'll say "WHERE'S MY FISH, YOU IDIOT?"
Actually, I think it just reflects the tastes of the average slashdotter... we tend to be more discerning and have more sophisticated interests.

The view was horrible and the smell was even worse; Julie severely regretted becoming a proctologist.
Oh, by the way, eating pussy is overrated. Something that most people only try once.
