Who needs porn DVD’s when we have the internet?

Back in the days of VHS, you didn’t have much choice.

Eww

Are you implying that people over 40 don’t know how to use the internet? When properly motivated (finding porn) I think they could figure it out.

And that’s the sad thing. If they weren’t so greedy and ass backwards, they’d be making a killing right now. HD-DVD shouldn’t even exist if they would just play their cards right.

Trust me, I deal with 70+ year olds all day who know how to use the internet. I had a guy the other day go

Me: “What would you like your security question to be”  
Him: “How bout the year of my birth”  
Me: “Ok and that is?”  
Him: “1921”

I was like holy shit!

Ironically enough Memory Stick has been the longest lasting one. With the same too damned expensive problem the whole time.
