Porn POD ?
The adult-entertainment industry that kick-started the pre-recorded home-video market is likely to do the same with video podcasts.
Adam Curry, president of PodShow Inc., said this week's announcement of the new video iPod from Apple Computer sets the stage for more big changes in media.
"Porn is just going to be huge," he told listeners to his Daily Source Code podcast this week. "The porn guys are just going, 'holy moly,' " -- in gratitude for the new market that's opened up to them.
But adult material is only one facet of new commercial opportunities, that Curry foresees. As an example, he said that "video dating should happen. A video dating feed. That's also a form of podcasting."
Now, like porn is not big enough? its everywhere, well everywhere on the net anyways, and now we are going to put up with people on trains, bus's, aircraft watching it? I have already witnessed such an event a year ago on a aircraft when a man a few rows up decided watching a XXX movie on his laptop would be a good idea, gladly after a mother alerted an air hostess that her son should not be subject to such material in a public place, a hostess reminded the man that watching this material on a plane was actually an offence, and he promptly put it away (for the Hotel later obviously).
Porn has its place (besides the red light areas of any capital city and suburbs like Fyshwick in the ACT), but it should be viewed in private, or with significant other/s ;), not in the place of minors or people with certain moral beliefs. Really would you read a XXX magazine in full view on any person on public transport? Then why watch it in the same locations. Lets have some codes of ethics with this issue, that way we can all enjoy our porn in private setting, and not while eating MacDonald’s or travelling on our way to work on the bus... (I couldn’t enjoy Porn on the way to work on a Bus).. eeerk!
