>> ...."Why would anyone want to see skanky people in 1080p? That could only hurt the porn industry." ???? <<That's the view from here, but if you like seeing every wrinkle, piercing, hair stubble and carbunkle, you'll have a different view.
>> You say; "Today, guess where most porn viewers get their content? That's right--online. No one is sitting around waiting for HD DVD or blu-ray to be adopted so they can add to their porn collections." How do YOU know this? Can you please provide evidence supporting your claim. <<
I could google to find figures on the viewing habits of porn fans if you really want me to, but it will have to be after I get home from work. Until then, I'll go out on a limb and say that your average porn fans (including those who were chomping at the bit for VHS 30 years ago) are not particularly discontented with DVD and VHS, and not concerned enough with HDTV to upgrade. Heck, the same can probably be said about most consumers.
>> Lastly, what does the porn industry do with all he high definition discs it has produced? Using your stated logic no one will buy them! <<
Beyond a small handful of discs, they haven't produced anything in high definition. Just filming at high resolution is not production. The cost lies in authoring and manufacturing the disc itself, which is much more expensive than standard DVDs.

...You seem to be under some sort of misapprehension, I don’t watch porn. I have never downloaded it not do I own any. I have seen porn movies but not in my home. Have you watched high definition porn?
You say; "Beyond a small handful of discs, they haven't produced anything in high definition. Just filming at high resolution is not production. The cost lies in authoring and manufacturing the disc itself, which is much more expensive than standard DVDs." So just how many high definition porn discs have been sold world-wide? Are you saying there is only a small handful been sold?

I thought it was fairly intuitive that the idea of HD porn is silly...I've been using "view" as a sort of double entendre. I in no way meant to seriously suggest that you or I view porn...that was a reference to our "views" of what might be popular among porn fans. I still maintain that the idea of slobbering joe sixpack porn fan wanting to watch poorly produced, cheap productions on the latest HDTV set in 1080p is pretty funny.

There are only a handful sold of any title on HD formats. I am saying blu-ray and HD DVD are not widely adopted and those who have adopted did so to see their HT pushed to new limits with impressive productions or perhaps their favorite films in 1080p. You're welcome to look at the sales rank of the few HD DVD or blu-ray titles (I don't think Amazon sells such things...you'd probably have to go to CDuniverse.com and check for sales rank).
