FyreTV, the guys who are releasing a nondescript set-top-box that streams IPTV adult video straight into your living room just gave us a hands-on demo with their machine. Here's what we think: it's the best thing we've seen yet to bring you on-demand porn over the internet into your living room.
You've already seen the details. The FyreTV streams you DVD-quality adult IPTV from major studios, letting you enjoy content without having to store it locally. You've got three packages to subscribe with beyond the mandatory $9.99 monthly fee that gives you a certain bucket of minutes.
• Buying more on-demand minutes to use as you watch, which will be somewhere between $0.17 to $0.24 a minute.
• Buying a specific movie to get unlimited viewing.
• Buying a monthly pass to get unlimited access (for that month) to a specific studio's content, which gives you all the movies in their catalog. This will be somewhere around $24ish, depending on the studio.
The box performance was great. DVD quality video was good on the cheap Vizio set they were demoing it on. The remote control was super responsive, and when you queue up a video it streams incredibly fast (probably because of their setup on the floor, so we'll have to see how it performs in the real world when we do a hands-on at home).
Other great functionality include bookmarking, favorites, playback history, playlists, scene ranking (1 to 5 stars), combination tag searches (Blondes, Boobs, Blondes + Big Boobs were the ones we used) and easy fast forward/rewinding through scenes.
FyreTV's best news is that their box will have no stickers (as shown in the pictures) or markings on it, so you can hide it in plain sight next to your DVR and have your in-laws be none the wiser. Why watch porn on your little computer monitor when you can watch it on a 150-inch HDTV in your living room? Oh and if you've read this far, it means you're definitely interested in this thing. We're going to have a special code soon for Gizmodo readers that will get you into the expanded beta (they went from 5,000 to 10,000 beta units) ahead of everyone else. [FyreTV]

She looks like Celine D's sister.
If she had one with big fake boobs that is...
"so we'll have to see how it performs in the real world when we do a hands-on at home"
Literally!
@islandmonk: not anymore!
So no markings other then the flame symbol on the top you mean?
@godai: No flame symbol at all. Just black box.
"combination tag searches "
is that like a menage a trois?
At last. God I was getting bored with bloody CES!
box performance was great......... well, what else could you possibly want?
I Cant stand stale-faced, fake boobed, half fugly chicks who used to be fat posing as PORN STARS.
www.youporn.com is all you will ever need! Seriously!
I would buy anything she sells.... :P
"We're going to have a special code soon for Gizmodo readers that will get you into the expanded beta"
You do that while I get that ethernet cable wired up in the bedroom. :>)
The background of the 5th Pic looks like a neon version of an airport only seen in my dreams.......
TIME, BATHROOMS, FOOD This way.-->
<--Blonde + Big Boobs This way.
I'd love to get my hands on her box...O and a fyreTV would be awesome too.
More like there looking for master-beta testers
I can't wait for the "hands-on"... Wow that was lame
Until then I will just keep using quickfap.com
@StackyBotrus: They can't stand you either.
That was significantly less NSFW than I was hopin...*cough*...expecting.
*silently makes note of all the sites people are commenting about*
Yeah where's the NSFW pictures. We know you have them.
I'm so glad you have a chance to see the new product from FyreTV. It's hard to get an estimation of performance from an article, but you will LOVE the quality and content selection once you try it yourself. When FyreTV introduced me to their BOXXX I thought it was a hoax. I mean, who ever heard of Porn on Demand?
Then I checked it out, watched one of my own movies on their set up system here at the AVN convention, and I was happier than I've ever been to see so much fun, sexy and wicked entertainment available with no trouble. No viruses, no nosy spouse going through your page history finding the porn you just sweated over.... Haha, I was getting so hot watching Remington Steel on the screen that when he showed up at our booth to do some signing, I jumped on him and almost tore his clothes right off! What a sight that would have been!!
My boss's daughter has more provocative pictures scrolling across her screen saver on her office computer than those.
That's a sweet and sexy sore on her lip...
Thanx! I can't wait for the Hands On either!!! If you were here, you could get your chance to give me a tickle while visiting our booth...
Oh, it's a scar on my lip from going through a windshield. Another reason to always buckle up. And since I'm really lucky to even be alive today, I try to make each day a fun and happy one. Watching a little T&A helps with that sometimes, right? And the FyreTV boxxx is just the thing to get your blood boiling. I was so turned on waching Lexington Steel on the screen that when he showed up to do some signing with FireTV, I almost ripped all his clothes off right there on the spot!
Cosy booth!
Eww, skanky - she almost makes Britanny Spears look doable.
Notice I said "almost".
what else are geeks supposed to drop money on other than gadgets?
@godai: I don't know how discrete a "black box" is once someone turns your TV on...
Just like e-commerce the Porn distributors are WAY ahead of traditional media.
If they can get the rights to sell regular movies, they've got a winner.
Who "watches" porn on their computer? It messes up the keyboard.
Porn sales of porn on DVD have dramatically reduced. This is an excellent way to distribute video.
She's a man, baby.
@Kidd: Ew.
Yeah, you guys will be doing a hands on at home alright
pakapakapakapaka SPLANK!
Wouldn't anybody tech savvy/porn dependent enough to run this already have tons of their own content available & running to a large set? Seems redundant, but hey - more power to 'em for pioneering another media delivery system!
Or I could just pull a ripped movie in Divx format of a torrent and play it over my Xbox like most people do, and not pay a GD thing.
Touche` porn industry... Cheap perverts 1, You 0
VIDEOBOX
Best porn site on the net. Google it. $9.99 for unlimited viewing. Not that I'd ever watch porn, just sayin... beats this deal by a long shot I think.
That tranny has herpes.
Only 2 questions matter:
Is there gay porn for it, and Will it Blend?
@sqeakytoy of the apocalypse:beat me to it!
That broad is nasty! Oh is that herpes I see? I think so :-\
Mostly followed the link for the "NSFW".. umm, where is it..
@logruszed:
you hope
It's about that time for Herpecin L....
Awesome. I don't know why this isn't posted in Fleshbot, but awesome.
Dang! Is that a cold sore on the babe's upper lip?
Pay...for....porn? I don't get it.
Did anyone get the "special code" yet?
OK - will someone explain to me again why I am a gonna pay a quarter a minute to watch adult DVD content when I just downloaded more than two hours of high bitrate clips from a couple of adult content providers for free?
No, I didn't hack my way in or spend hours searching for the content or endure painful amount of adverts for penis enlargement devices.
I guess I must just be one of those old farts who thinks its immoral to pay for content when it's available for free if you want it. Geeez....
