I think this rumour has been going on long enough and it is time to put it to rest.
You have all heard that the pornographic industry was the reason that VHS won out over Betamax in the last format war, and that the porn industry was heavily backing HD-DVD in this war.
Well no one can confirm for deny those rumours but some things can be proven now. Firstly porn is now longer the huge driver it used to be since it is mostly distributed using the Internet now and not physical media.
Even taking that into account it is once again not a factor because the large porn groups are either format neutral or in the case of Digital Playground, they are now Blu-Ray exclusive. Apparently because PS3 owners have been specifically asking them to be…
Either way this rumour should not be entertained as it has very little factual basis left.

It proves that no matter what part of the industry the top end ( Warner ) or the sleazy bastards that.. They all know Blu ray is best.
