    And porn has picked HD DVD. Porn killed Betamax and made the internet (both sleazy and wholesome) thrive.

    Porn started the video tape craze to the masses as the killer app!
    It also has done wonders for the internet. They were the first ones to make money online.

    Porn will NOT decide this battle. Movies are now part of most households already. The first guys to market a decent $199 player will win.
    That's what will turn the corner

    Still not a smart move on Sony et al.'s part saying they won't have porn on their format. Ther'es a history of technology thriving on "adult entertainment", why risk it?

    Well if industry has any track record to it, HD will win if Porn is HD not Blu-ray. Sad but I feel that is true, the best format is not always which wins.

    I'd have to agree, sometimes more clarity isn't a better thing. OTOH, I'll have to make sure and audition some HD content just to make sure.

    Yeah, HD may not be the best thing for porn. Think about it, your vision gets blurry when you beer-goggle, not clearer.

    Porn will decide nothing and have a very minor (if any) effect on either format or a winner.
    If...
    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
    Ron loves a film = don't even rent.

    Nobody's running out a daily bases to buy $30/40 a pop for HD DVD porn. To many other outlets. This will have very little to do with the formats. I have to say, i think Blu-Ray is slowly pulling ahead right now.
    PS3 and HD Front Projection, life is good. Too bad Blu-Ray and the PS3 are already obsolete.....

    Uh, pron decided VHS vs Beta and also DVD vs. Divx. I see no reason why it won't help decide the current format war, if anyone actually wins.

    Several movies are already in WMV-HD. Look up "Island Fever 3" (or 4). The trailer is pretty damn amazing with its clarity.

    don't know if porn will decide the war, but i can comment on the material. had spiceHD on satellite for a spell and it was awesome. the hotties looked even hotter, perhaps even closer to real life. whether a woman has pimples or scars or 5 o'clock shadows shouldn't matter. it's all about presenting the video to the consumer in a life-like manner. don't tell me you'd prefer to have a low-budget magazine with shotty pictures vs. a higher-class one with photo-realistic pics. of course, the higher the quality of the media, the higher the quality of the chicks they have on their payroll.
