Are Mobile Phones Too Small for Smut?


mobilevideo.jpgJessie Seyfer at the San Jose Mercury News has this almost-humorous piece on whether p*rn will migrate to mobile phones in a big way. The answer: probably not.

One reason is that mobile phone companies are doing their best to block delivery of questionable content. Another reason, and here’s the humorous part, is that the displays on mobile phones are just too small to properly, um, enjoy risque videos.

And another thing. Who wants to watch p*rn on such a teeny screen? The screen size is “inferior for viewing that type of content,” Patel [Nitesh Patel, of Strategy Analytics] said. “It might be OK for a gimmicky show for your friends at the pub to have a bit of a laugh, but I don’t think you’ll see people seriously using that way.”
