I CALLED IT!!!!!

Toshiba has announced something that all of us at Pre-marital Sax knew way back on June 19 of last year: they're giving up the fight and not producing HD DVD players any more. Here are my prophetic words:

And so if you're a porno fan (and I have a feeling most of my readers probably are), buy a Blu Ray. They've won.

Basically, to rehash, Betamax lost the bidding war back in the 80's not because of inferior product, but because they did not do enough pornographic business. Back in June I learned that Toshiba was making that same mistake, so it was pretty clear they were going to lose the battle. There has been an upward trend in fidelity of pornography throughout the ages: cave engravings to paintings, to black and white photos, to magazines, to skeezy theaters, to late night HBO to finally High Definition video. I shudder to think what the next step is: robots?

But my sincerest apologies to anyone who jumped the gun and bought this failed machine. Here are a few suggestions of what you can do with it:

• Stick it in a time capsule and confuse the hell out of people 20 years from now.
• Actually, that's the only thing I can think to do with it.
