during the AEE (adult entertainment expo) Sony has said NO porn on blu-ray and a guy from vivid was interviewed and said sony has blocked them from producing porn on blu-ray while HD-DVD is happily welcoming them. So alot of porn companies are ditch blu-ray for HD-DVD also for the fact that it's easier and cheaper to produce and have combo formats for both DVD/HD-DVD. But vivid claims they are still trying to release both formats.

Plus japan already has the very first porn title in HD-DVD.

Here is an article, from as recent as yesterday, that the headline says:

Sony says 'no' to porn on Blu-ray Disc
Analysts say Blu-ray could lose format battle to HD DVD because Sony will not handle adult film titles

The first HD DVD porn titles in the US are already available too, the box art pictured is one of them. You can order them now from adultdvdempire.com which is where I got the box art from.
