Digital Playground: Pirates(X-Rated Film) Blu-ray 'Selling Like Gangbusters'

Apparently the Blu-Ray version of the movie "Pirates" is creating shockwaves all over. This is what Digital Playground is reporting :-

" Despite widespread cynicism about the market for high-def porn, pre-orders for Digital Playground's Pirates Blu-ray disc are "through the roof," according to CEO Samantha Lewis.

"We didn't know what to expect," Lewis told AVN, "and we can't keep them here. We're just a little crazy, because we weren't expecting it. We thought it'd be a little bit slower paced, and then when I went to the Berlin show, I'm like, 'OK, something's going on here.' And then when I got back, the U.S. was just bam-bam-bam-bam-bam."

hAHAHAHAHAHHAAH OMFG. I guess the porn industry realizes that BLu-ray is the Successor to VHS(VHS won Cause of Porn) and DVD

cant wait for FF13 on a 100 gig BD disc by HITACHI

Ah TANOD TANOD TANOD. Everyone knows that blu-ray is the successor? Is that the same as everyone agrees with what you are saying?
I think the answer to both is no, one because hd dvd is also selling well like blu-ray and two, because your bubbles are rapidly approaching one :-P

I find it kind of funny that when the porn industry went HD-DVD exclusive, everyone was saying that HD-DVD won, but when the industry realized that they werent making money on that format and went multi-format, they sell the BD version of their porn like crazy. i can already see those executives, "DAMN WE SHOULDNT HAVE LISTENED TO THOSE IDIOTS AT TOSH!!!!"

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
