Sorry, I really can't tell if you're serious or taking the piss :) Sony
have a policy of preventing Blu-ray pressing plants from producing, ahem,
"adult content". Now some people say that it doesn't matter, Horny Joe
Public can download all they want from the internet, but the fact remains
that there is a big market for it on DVD. If those same punters who
presently buy it on DVD want buy it on a hi-def format, it's going to have
to be HD-DVD, Sony have left them with no choice. It may not decide the
format war, but it's certainly a factor.
