“Hellhouse Video now offers tracks for your iPod Photo, including This Little Piggy and Sindi’s Wet and Messy Adventure. [...] The entertainment industry–specifically Playboy and Penthouse–have noticed this rising trend. Suicide Girls, which specializes in piercing and tattoos on pinups, has put free clips of its offering on its Web site.” [IrishEyes]
More than a million videos have been downloaded from its iTunes Music Store, which debuted the service less than three weeks ago, Apple Computer Inc. said on Monday. [Yahoo!News]
The debut coincided with the launch of a new generation of Apple’s iPod digital music player that can play video on its 2.5-inch color screen. [...] In a statement, Jobs said the number of downloads “strongly suggests there is a market for legal video downloads,” but acknowledged that a broader variety of content was needed. [Reuters]
That broader variety seems to be ready now.
“It seems that Apple [...] has caught the attention of the whole entertainment business. But it has especially captured the imagination of one particular segment–the porn industry, which hungrily eyes every new outlet for its wares.” [Doc Searls quotes Peter Kafka]
Seems to me the porn industry always finds a new way to get to the people. Mobile gadgets are just another channel to do that. There’s an audience and it’s willing. Mobile TV content will not lack the presence of porn or nudity, despite the wish of many parents or ethical organisations. Porn is an industry, and industries need to grow in order to survive. Short clips are a very attractive format and very easily to download. Let’s hope your battery doesn’t run flat at the wrong time, because the one thing all these mobile toys have in common is that they suck power as fast and hard as the models featuring in the clips. And that goes especially for cell phones.
