2007_07_31_arango.jpgPaper Magazine’s JD Ferguson reflects on the one that got away, a six foot-one Colombian named Dillon Arango: “If not for his father’s insisting he attend medical school, I am certain this 6′ 1″ Columbian hottie would have graced the catwalks of the world’s top designers.” Yes, but can you imagine what his bedside manner is like?

Technobabble: Sony’s Backdoor Blu-Ray Action

2007_07_31_dvd.jpgJust when we think this whole Blu-Ray/HD DVD format war has sorted itself out, with one technology finally winning out over the other, a new development emerges to swing the pendulum back the other way. First, it was Digital Playground charging into the breach with their decision to publish titles in HD DVD (with other American companies following suit) and the reluctance of Blu-Ray proprietor Sony to allow its own disc replicators to wallow in adult filth. Now comes word out of Japan that Sony has loosed its belt a bit and is now providing equipment and support to a Taiwanese outfit that will allow Japanese porn companies to finally create new Blu-Ray discs and bring them back to the islands.

Since we’ve heard more times than we care to think about that porn drives our new technological age, this new Sony surge may bring the debate back to life. If the leading tech nation’s leading studios start churning out Blu-Ray’d J-porn by the truckloads, will American studios be forced to follow suit? Will the battle re-ignite in time to save Sony’s struggling format? Will we ever throw away our cherished VHS copy of “Emmanuelle in Bangkok”? We eagerly await the answers.
