Late last year, an “executive” with Vivid Video mentioned in an interview that he would be looking into the possibility of streaming the studio’s porn films via the Playstation Network.  Quite frankly…I thought that was an absolute stroke of genius.

Clearly, this gutterball did his homework.  The Sony PS3 User demographic is dominated by 18 to 34 year old geeks and fat guys.  Oddly enough, that also happens to be the target demographic of the porn industry.

Some might call that coincidence…but I think it’s fate.  Surely this would be the most natural pairing since Peanut Butter and Jelly…and everyone involved would stand to make a boatload of cash.

Vivid gets a whole new outlet to reach their audience, Playstation Network would see higher traffic and more paid transactions, and lonely gamers everywhere would be able to jerk off while watching Jenna Jameson get pummeled by 18 inches of angry cock in 1080p.

Let’s not forget that Sony’s also going to be bringing 3D capability to the PS3…and fake titties bouncing in 3D on a 60 inch LCD is probably something that the Playstation community would jump at like they were Michael Jordan.

Literally, everybody involved in that equation wins.

CVG is reporting that Sony, however decided against engaging in any business venture of the sort, in a move that was both obvious and unfortunate.  Yes, I know…there’s a joke there…but I’m actually…well…I’m halfway serious about this.

Sony’s been playing catch up since before the PS3 launched, having lost a year to Nintendo and Microsoft in the next gen console game.  Now, Sony’s been on a roll this past 2 years and while it’s clear that SCEA and the Playstation brand are doing quite well for themselves, there’s always room for more revenue streams.

Think about all those guys playing Modern Warfare 2 who have Prestiged four or more times.  Think about the zit ridden teenagers who have earned more than four Platinum Trophies.  Think about the kids on the PS forums who registered in 2006 and have a post count over 10,000.  Exactly how many of those Aqua Velvas do you think actually knows the scent of a woman?

I say and I say it again my PSN brothers, you’ve been had.  You’ve been HAD.  You’ve been run amok.  Led astray.  Hoodwinked.  Baaaaaaaamboozled.  You could’ve had it all, but it was taken from you by the…wait…sorry.  Got carried away.

Bottom line, in a Global recession, new revenue streams are essential for businesses to continue to grow.  Streaming porn through PSN could potentially be a new revenue ocean for Sony.  Yeah, sure…you add that extra level of sleaziness to your online offerings and it probably wouldn’t look good if, say Oprah or Ariana Huffington were to use their media clout to demonize Sony for such a move…

…but honestly…most gamers don’t give a flying mother fuck about either of those stuck up broads, or their ridiculous Book Of The Month clubs…so I don’t really see how that’s a problem, either.

All rhetoric aside, Sony has a lot of irons in the fire and the Playstation brand is only one of them, so it’s plainly obvious that allowing Vivid to stream vids of that hot ass to mouth action on PSN wasn’t going to happen.  Sure…there’s a lot of money on the table there, but Sony clearly did not want to carry the stigma of being a porn distributor.

Rumor has it that Vivid owner Steven Hirsch will now pitch their product to Microsoft executives for distribution via Xbox Live.  XBL carries pretty much the same demographic that PSN does, so it’s still a brilliant idea…but as Armando Galarraga could tell you, sometimes your best pitches just come up a little short.
