"Some companies have no idea" or "Sony: you truly are shit!"

Everyone knows that the increase in the amount of porn available on the Internet pretty much led to the Internet's success. Broadband connections would certainly not be as widespread if it wasn't for the interest in porn. I think it's quite safe to say that outside of 9-5 the majority of traffic on the Internet is porn related.

DVD can also attribute much of its early success to the porn industry - I remember a friend of mine (who was quite a technology geek) saying back in 2000 (when DVD was just starting to take off) that "the porn industry is pushing the boundaries of DVD technology". They were involved in the implementation of special features and multiple angles way before the major Hollywood studios.

So....now we hear that Sony has decided not to allow porn studios to use its new (possible DVD replacement) Blu-Ray discs. Having previously been a (quiet) supporter of the Sony format I now find myself leaning towards the HD format simply because this is the most ridiculously short minded company policy I've heard in a long time.

Imagine a car company building a cheap and small but extremely fast car and then deciding not to allow anyone under 25 to buy it...
