Vivid boss keen for Sony to boost adult entertainment industry by making HD movies available worldwide

The kingpin of the world’s largest pornography producer has called on Sony to make downloadable HD adult movies available worldwide through PSN.

The Vivid Entertainment founder and co-chairman, Steven Hirsch, told MCV that he believed the distribution of porn films on PS3 had “real potential” for the adult entertainment industry.

Japanese firm DDM.tv last month revealed that it had launched an HD porn download service for owners of the PS3 – but it is only available in its home territory for the time being.

DDM promised to bring Blu-Ray-quality HD adult movies to those with a PS3, broadband connection, HDMI cable and an HD TV. Movies will be offered for download on a
pre-pay basis.

Hirsch told MCV this week: “[DDM’s launch] is a good start. We hope that Sony will allow adult movies to be downloaded worldwide.

“As long as proper age verification is in place there is no reason why consumers should not be allowed to view adult movies on any device that they desire.

“It’s too early to say to what extent this could help our business, but it certainly has real potential.”

However, MCV understands that neither Sony Computer Entertainment Europe nor America have yet received a formal request from Vivid material for its material to be hosted on the platform.

The porn industry was given a great boost in past years by Sony’s decision to include DVD functionality on PlayStation 2 in 2000.

If this happens the Wii will be obliterated. lolllllllll

I could see this as a good thing and a bad thing and because of that I doubt Sony would do it. The chance of an underage kid seeing it would be there and I dont know if Sony would be willing to let that happen

I hope Sony doesn't do this. All an underage kid has to do is change his age to view it. Besides, it will give the media something to talk about and will keep parents from buying PS3s

I could not speak for other territories, but I would think the potential for a public black-eye in America, far out-weighs any sales this would encourage.

Much like cartoons, I think video game consoles have this "for kids" attachment in the psyche of the American adult population and these folks would not want to be concerned about "child-proofing" their video-game system. That of course, is just my Tuesday, not my real job, analysis.

I heard there is already a system being sold that can access porn at the click of a button- it comes with a personal monitor and a keyboard attachment built in! Some skus come with wifi built in and every one comes with a large hard drive. I believe it is called project "PC"- There's even a handheld called project "laptop". imagine the sort of PR nightmare those things must have. i bet no child in america has one ;o

ot: apple had that one porn app- hopefully ps3 will get porn. sex is good- it created you.
