Vudu Fills Gaping Hole With AVN Porn Channel
Posted by Matt Buchanan at 11:40 PM on August 5, 2008
One thing you can say about the Vudu video wonderbox is that it gets better all the time. AVN--the Adult Video News--is launching a dedicated porn channel on Vudu. While you'll have to pay for every flick you watch, there are at least two reasons it's better than the FyreTV streaming porn box that Chen loves so, so much.
One, Vudu's AVN channel will offer high-def porn--FyreTV is only DVD-quality, at best. (Merits of HD vs. SD porn aside, at least Vudu can deliver either HD if you want it.) Second, a Vudu box is way more discreet (though its remote does kind of look like a sex toy). And besides, if you already have Vudu, it's one less box you have to deal with. [CE Pro - Thanks Julie!]

Interesting ... although still not tempting enough to make me pay for porn

Sweet for those that own a Vudu. But with so much free porn on the net, is this really that important?

As a proud owner of a VUDU...nothing like plopping down on your sofa and with a click of the remote you're watching a movie...sure there is plenty of porn on the web, but finding good quality porn is another thing. VUDU makes it easy and in the comfort of your living space, not by the glow of a computer monitor less than 3 ft away. Besides if you're sharing with a loved one, it can get a little cramped sitting in the same desk chair!!!!

If you're using this product... you probably have no desire for "less box"

I know they were attempting to rhyme with Indiana, but maybe they should have gone for the innuendo/wordplay in the state name -- like Sexas or Wiscuntsin or Moundtana or ... Oklanalsexhoma

this i'd like to try. as one who uses the fyre box now, all i can say is that i hope the vudu is stable!! the fyre box does come in handy when me and my girl decide its business time, but 8 out of 10 times the damn thing doesn't work!!

The upcoming Netflix on XBOX 360 thing, and existing Amazon on Tivo thing, have kinda sapped my desire to try Vudu -- despite how good it sounds. Aside from being a subscription model which Netflix has and Amazon doesn't, and having "new release" content that Amazon has and Netflix (streamable) doesn't, what advantage does this thing have if you have the other two services?

That could seriously be a killer app in the set-top box world. You know AppleTV, Xbox360, etc. will never go there.

@JChristopher:
the quality of porn is directly proportional to the "artfulness" of the title and cover art.

Due to my early sexual developmental process, there's still nothing that gets me off like scrambled Skinemax.

@Kaiser-Machead's BSDM Shenanigans: EWW you can get past zits on the ass?! Ugh, there are some things I just cannot and will not get over.
1. Zits
2. when a guy grooms it looks like he has a rash instead
3. socks during sex (ewwwwww)
4. wearing sunglasses (if youre doing it outside) of course it's even worse inside.
I hae seen porn where you can see the scars from her tits and that was all I could focus on after that, my experience was ruined!

Sometimes HD isn't really what you need to be seeing. Especially when it comes to porn. "Wow her ass looks great.. wait, WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!?!"

@JChristopher: Porn can be ANYTHING within it's category.
Porn can be low quality films of an amateur couple, some old guy boning his niece. Quality porn is GRADE A porn, the kind that you can sit down and watch and not squint to see if thats a penis or a nipple.
Personally I don't like many porn stars as they look fake and usually the scenes are not that great. Studio porn is all the same shit.

How can you even compare Vudu to FyreTV. I mean Vudu is a $300 dollar piece of hardware, $380 if you want the WIFI capabilities which only gets you the equipment and then you have to pay on top of that $380 for content. FyreTV costs you $10 a month giving you all of the needed equipment plus 100 minutes of content and the ability to search for specific scenes, studios, categories, and stars. Yes Vudud offers HD content if you have the available bandwidth but do you really care if you are seeing that perfect scene in DVD or HD quality. Speaking on a completely technical level yes maybe Vudu offers better quality of content but speaking on a customer satisfaction level, price performance, and content level there is no comparison between FyreTV's offerings and Vudu.

OMG! Hi-Def Porn? JUST SAY NO.
Most of the skanks in studio porn are hard enough on the eyes to begin with, now you're going to magnify in hi-definition all their flaws, wrinkles, zits, etc.
This could be the best move the anti-porn crowd could ever come up with. What a turn off it will be with many flicks.

@GeekyNerdGuy: If i see socks on a man during sex. I am stopping. I know that sounds really uptight but it would just never slide with me. I would try and continue and all I could think of is SOCKS SOCKS SOCKS....yeah I have problems.

Really though, is this softcore Cinimax porn, or is it the real think that costs $50 a DVD in an adult store?

Things I don't want to see:
A close up on genitalia where i can see some nice genital warts, or a budding cluster of Herpes blisters. Without HD I can just think its chaffing. Gross. Now I just grossed myself out.

@LindsayJoy's MBP is into S+M: people always say that... or use it as an example of why HD porn is bad or whatever.
but really... i can't think of *ever* seeing porn with active VD in it. is it really that common? sounds more like FUD honestly.
bad make-up and shitty skin or surgery scars i could certainly believe... but active obviously visible VD? i doubt that. aren't most these people tested extremely regularly anyway? and if not... that must be some skeezy trashed-out porn that is unlikely to be shot and delivered as HD anyway.
