PORN FILM STUDIO TO LET HOMEBUYERS BUY ITS MOVIES ONLINE

While the major film studios have been reluctant to allow their movies to be downloaded online and burned onto a DVD that can be played on TV sets, the porn industry appears ready to make that leap at once, according to USA Today. The newspaper reported that Vivid Entertainment plans to offer its films via the online CinemaNow movie service beginning Monday. The article pointed out that the studios' reluctance to do the same thing is largely based on their unwillingness to risk the wrath of big-box retailers like Wal-Mart and Best Buy who currently are the largest sellers of DVDs. But Vivid's Bill Asher told USA Today that his company doesn't have to be concerned about any of its retailers. "We sell in smaller stores, mainstream chains, but no one dominant component where we're going to get that phone call," he said.
