Pornography producers will soon release sexually explicit discs for Sony's PlayStation Portable game console, most of whose users are minors.
Two makers of adult movies plan to sell their products for the console as early as July, and several other pornographers are apparently ready to follow, Japanese newspaper the Asahi Shimbun reported Friday.
It is utterly undesirable, but we cannot stop software makers from selling such videos, a public relations official at Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. said.
The hand-held PlayStation uses the universal media disc, or UMD, format, enabling the console to play games or videos recorded on optical discs 2.3 inches in diameter.
The UMD format, developed by the Sony group, can play moving images for about 120 minutes. Much like the DVD, UMD discs can be produced and distributed by any company.
Sony released the PlayStation Portable in Japan in December and in North America in March. It had shipped a combined 2.97 million of the game consoles by the end of March in Japan and North America.
