Apparently, this is the question that the adult industry has been tackling for a few years now. While a politically incorrect subject, I found this article online which does directly examine the question of next-gen technology and what should be done with. It's just through the eyes of the adult movie market
In this article, it talks about the discussions mentioned concerning the pro's and cons of HD and blu-ray. Essentially, many of these companies have decided on HD because of its availability and lack of any proposed legal problems.
While this doesn't directly address the question of film and video, this does bring up an interesting point dealing with next-gen technology. While a highly sensitive field of interest, the adult film industry were pioneers in adapting new technology and the distribution of their materials (this article mentions that they were one of the first big arenas to adopt and implement the heavy usage of VHS back in the 1980s). Anyway, have fun

These guys are always out there on the technological frontier--I think it really highlights the extent to which so many technological changes are driven by concerns over efficiency (ie, making more money while doing less work).
What I wonder is how significant any possible backlash from among the mainstream media industries might be once word gets around about the adult industry. That is, how much does an annoucement like this dampen the likelihood of the mainstream industries adopting the same standards? Any? Some? I wonder.
Nice with the porn segue drewbie.
But it doesn't help you if you ever want to run for office in Texas...
