> If you believe tech battles are decided whether there is access to porn (VHS vs Beta comes to mind)... That didn't really happen, to quote from a post from the host of Technology Connections: > "I didn't include a section on "how lack of porn killed Beta" because _this is a myth_. Many people have heard tales that Sony didn't allow porn to be released on Beta, and that's nothing but an urban legend. There was indeed "back-room" content available on Beta, but far far less of it simply because fewer people had Beta machines than VHS. Porn represented a small percentage of sales on both VHS and Beta, so it's unlikely many people based their decision on what format to buy based on availability of adult content." The myth reverses cause and effect. |
