Although it is widely credited with helping to bring both VHS and standard-def DVD to the mainstream, the porn industry has been surprisingly slow to embrace next-gen disc formats.
Many believed that the adult video industry would once again be a major factor in determining which of the rival formats would be victorious but so far the releases have been few and far between.
To date, DVD Empire only lists sixteen adult titles on HD DVD and a meager three for Blu-ray.
Industry analysts have put a few reasons forward as to why they believe the industry has been slow to adopt including the the fact that the discs are much more expensive to produce and that distributors are under the impression that it would be better to just leap frog the formats and focus on online content delivery of HD content.
