>> ...."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.
