Porn Industry continues support for Blu-Ray format

Blu-ray disc - Image 1It seems that the always booming adult entertainment industry is slowly warming up to the Blu-Ray format. Well, some of you may not find this important but it should be remembered that many industry experts believe that during the format war between Betamax and VHS, the latter won because the skin flick business chose it over the former.

Anyway, adult industry big names held its annual conference back in January (that coincided with CES, if we may add), and it was noted that most film studios still prefer producing on HD-DVD format as well as on regular DVDs.

Despite that, a movie called "Debbie Does Dallas" was released on Blu-Ray back in March 28. This time, LFP Video Group announced its partnership with New Media Adult Entertainment and CDGirls.com to distribute "Jenna Haze Oil O*gy" in retail stores across the country.

If you really want to know, the movie features adult star Jenna Haze and used to be only available online and through catalog. LFP Video Group President Michael Klein noted,

LFP leads the way in adult entertainment and it is only fitting that we are the first to market with an adult film in this exciting new format. This release expands the Hustler tradition of breaking new ground with our video titles not only in content, but also by utilizing the latest technology available, so our customers can enjoy superior picture quality.


Lastly, it is also worth mentioning that the movie will also be available in other formats
HD-DVD and DVD-WMV.

It was inevitable that the porn industry would try and come back to Blu-Ray due to all the good press coming out of it.

Is there some 15 year old people writing articles in QJ?



'Blu-ray' is written like that. Not 'Blu-Ray.' Get that right.



Same thing we 'HD DVD', it's written like that. Not 'HD-DVD.'

Funny coz you said that they were continuing with blu-ray but then you said that actually most are with hd-dvd and then you said the film going on blu-ray is on HD-DVD anyway so this means nothing really.



Blu-ray is gonna win anyway.

It really doesn't matter which version the porn industry favors now because of the internet and downloadable content.



When the VHS and Beta Max were at odds back in the old days, that was the only medium available for recording.



Just think, was there the internet, DVR, or downloadable content? NOPE. You were stuck with either VHS or Bets Max.



This is a no news.



BTW, I'm a PS3 fanboy and hate microsux.

» Headline mixed up

What a misleading headline. If HD DVD is still the choice of the adult industry like you state in the text itself, how do you make a headline like that. Blu-ray is not widely supported by the valley biz, so it's more of staying alive situation right now.

by jim bob - 2007-05-11 17:46
» well,

because of the internet, i don't think the porn industry will have as big of an influence this time as it did with vhs and beta max. besides, who would want to watch porn in hd? think about it, there is a lot of stuff that you don't want to see in high definition.

» i recall

some recent news a while ago, both sides stated they dont want each other. porn industry doesnt like blu-ray and sony doesnt like porn.

kissing and makeup now i see.

time to educate parents now

the ps3 has a great parental control disallowing mature content if the parents set it so.

parents should take advantage of this so even if young people get a hold of a porn blu-ray disc their ps3's wont play it.

» hmmm

i dont realy think pron will have much of an efect this time with vhs and betta max you have to remeber that they were replacing the super 8 loop so yeah it was a whole new industry and all. and i dont know how much truth there is in the porn likes 1 over the other statements from what i could find out doesnt look like much has been released on either format

» Who in the hell?

Come on now, who in the HELL buys porn dvds anymore? We all know we get it off the internet. Porn isnt going to have the effect on formats that it did 30 years ago.

by KuJayhawk - 2007-05-12 18:33
» I agree

The internet is the main porn source for every house......and for those who don't have internet....do you think they will really be able to afford hd-dvd or blu-ray disks? Not likely.....only the rich playboys are gonna waste their money on that sh**T

I don't need my porn on Blue ray, I just need it on my HD

» What is QJ smoking

The title and the article contradict them selves. The major porn backers have said many times, they will be using Hd-DVD becasue of production costs etc.



Blu-ray still isnt finished, Nov 1 2007 is the day to wait for. By then the chinese HD-DVD players will be on the market, with walmart behind them. Walmart it what made DVD what it is today.



Blu-ray is nothing but an expensive pipedream, that they ruined a great gaming machine to force you into it.



If blu-ray wins, ill go back to upconverting DVDs, and wait for streaming content.



Im not supporting a DRM infested format such a Blu-ray.
