It was decided back around the time of the Adult Entertainment Expo that Sony's Blu-ray format would not be involved in the production of adult material. Even though HD DVD is going to be the choice for adult movies in the North American market, Sony Japan is going to take its own direction from the Sony mainstream. Because the Blu-ray disk format is the undisputed leader in Japan, Sony is choosing to turn their heads and allow for the production of adult content.
