Bingo! I did mean defects as per Setitie's explanation, I thought it was clear given that I was referring to makeup... I read a long time ago that they had to increase makeup time/effort for HD news broadcasts and that's just for the face, so just imagine if you have to cover the whole body! He He...

And Beef, I couldn't agree more. As you said some people will realize that those bodies are not as "perfect" as they thought when they get to see them in glorious HD... ;)

Bingo! I did mean defects as per Setitie's explanation...That's what I meant, too.
My questions still stand.

I'm trying to get an idea whether this is an technology argument based on experience
or this sickening BD vs. HD spiel. I'm not interested in a follow-up to the latter.

Diogen.

Man did I hit a chord or what?

My comments have nothing to do with technology or BD vs. HD-DVD. I am trying to make fun of all of this HD porno stuff. Sorry I thought it was pretty obvious. And no I haven't seen any WMV-HD porn, I didn't even know it existed and I am not interested anyway.

Anyone who still believes that porn is going to decide anything this time around should build themselves a Delorean and a Flux capacitor and go back to the early 80s when people actually gave a damn. :cool:

Flux capacitors are sold out, they ran out of blue diodes... ;)

PS3 owners are requesting porn... ;)

Director Joone told CEPro that consumers asking for adult films that can be played on their Playstation 3 have had a major impact on the studio’s decision

Isn't that the one that had been coming out for BD all along?

I thought they already had adult movies on both formats?

I won't be 2 faced about it. It didn't matter much when they were HD-DVD exclusive and it won't make a whole lot of difference with them going neutral. They aren't the guys that will make or break either platform any more.

I don't think porn was ever a factor actually...

Digital Playground only made HD DVDs before but other studios made Blu or both.

I actually have Pirates on HD DVD, yes i'm a perv. It's top notch!

People only bring this up because it was considered a huge factor with VHS winning over Beta but there is one tiny thing that has happened since the those days. The Internet, heard of it? It's this new fangled thing that delivers free Pr0n to your house!!

The arguement is outdated and irrelevant to the masses. People like pr0n, people don't want other people to know they like pr0n. VHS helped mask their deviant desires so it was obviously a consideration when people choose a side. Now? It's hard to NOT find pr0n. My work involves liberal use of google and I have had more than 1 blushing moment of opening up an inappropriate link at work. The latest being a hardcore Hentai site (don't ask).

O and to reinforce my point
