VR porn bosses urge Tech Companies such as Facebook, Sony and Samsung to get involved

MAKERS of virtual reality headsets are being urged to sell virtual reality porn – or risk missing out on a booming business.

A porn industry titan has urged top VR firms like Facebook, Samsung and Sony to ditch their prudish rules and embrace a sex-tech revolution.

Virtual reality involves users donning a headset powered by a computer, which generates fake images.

The tech can simulate a virtual world around you, making it seem real – so its adoption by porn producers was inevitable.

Sales of VR porn are booming, but the industry warns that it’s being held back by overly cautious tech giants.

“A lot of these big companies are fearful of getting associated with porn,” said Ian Paul, an exec at porn firm Naughty America, speaking to the Wall Street Journal.

What’s got VR porn companies excited isn’t necessarily the technology, but the profits.

Around one in every 167 visitors to Naughty America’s VR preview page ended up becoming a paying subscriber.

That might not sound like much, but it’s a big deal when the world has grown used to XXX videos being freely available online.

With huge profit potential, companies like Naughty America are scrambling to get involved.

The problem for porn giants is that there’s a reluctance to showcase VR porn from the people who hold the reins over virtual reality gear.

The majority of VR content gets sold by the people who make the VR products, and those companies are household names.

Right now, there’s no way to buy pornographic content through Facebook’s Oculus Riftstore, the HTC Vive store, Samsung’s Gear VR store, or Sony’s PlayStation VR store.

It’s possible to find dodgy workarounds to get porn onto these headsets, but it can result in lower quality content.
