I think it's very interesting how so many of us talk often of our fondness for the old grainiess and grittiness of '70s porn -- and there are many porn fans who still say this is their favorite porn -- so why would we want to move further away from that? Isn't sex supposed to be a little gritty and imperfect to begin with?
I've been struggling with this same issue

On one hand my squirtit.com site was amateur and since I've been transitioning to pro am I've gotten emails from subs asking me to keep things the way they were.

On the other hand I have my sleepingmen.com site, which is extremely low tech, shot in nightvision (black, gray and green) and is doing considerably better in sales then the squirtit site.

My instinct tells me that in only particular niche cases will HDV be successful in porn, or any other media.

People are used to seeing things a particular way, with their own eyes, in a certain resolution, anything to fuzzy, or to clear, will be distracting to the content I think , in most cases.
