Digital Playground has recently announced its decision to go with the Blu-ray Disc format over HD-DVD
As the battle between Blu-ray and HD-DVD continues to heat up, adult film company Digital Playground has announced that it will release new products on Blu-ray Disc instead of HD-DVD. The company claims that it went with Blu-ray is because of the larger storage capacity with Blu-Ray over HD-DVD. Digital Playground is also banking on the success of the the Sony PlayStation 3 game console; all units will ship with Blu-ray built in, which should lead to more people having access to a player that plays the Blu-ray format.
Pornography has always been quick to adopt new media. The printing press, photography and Internet all owe a large portion of their success to the lucrative business of adult content. With a major adult content producer siding with one of the media camps already, the format wars are only going to continue to get uglier and uglier.
