Today's Gizmodo writers' conversation inevitably turned, as it always does, toward pornography. Jesus brought up the very interesting observation that in this day and age, with iPods and portable media players and laptops and portable hard drives, what kind of person still orders hotel porn? It's expensive, slightly embarrassing ("Ma'am, I have never even heard of Dirt Pipe Milkshakes"), and unhygienic (think of who touched those remotes before you). So we pose the question to you, our faithful readers. Do you enjoy hotel porn, or do you bring a sack lunch?

She can HD me.
Homemade. The Hotel stuff might have some weird stains on them.
OK, I have to ask. Who's the chick and what movie is she in?
Heck, forget about her name, just give me the movie!
gizmodo, please to a better job of siting your picture sources ;)
Bring your own, for sure. First off, with this day and age of YouPorn and others, who even needs to pay for porn these days? That, and the hotel stuff is always somewhat censored. And expensive as hell.
Uhm, not like I know from experience or anything like that . . .
Hey your conversations aren't as different like the ones i have with my friends...they always end with sex or has sexual themes in the middle of it...but i think you should bring your own, i mean the shame of ordering your movies...something like..may i see the pron movie collection?
Neither. I order $5000 hookers from across state lines.
Taxi to a restaurant: £25
Dinner for two: £100+
A romantic stroll through the city: free
A nice hotel room: £250
Getting slapped, hard, then thrown out the room you paid for when she finds out you brought porn with you: priceless.
Hey waait!...who is the girl in the TV?... :P
nice choice for the photoshopping
I love how you don't even bother to leave room for "no porn."
Who am I kiddin'? Nobody would check that box.... certainly not me!
for the love of God, will somebody please identify the movie in which i can watch girl in the picture???

With free WiFi why is there even a question about it? :P did you know the internet has porn? 100's of pictures.. so i hear
Why bring or buy? Most hotel have WiFi. You must have your laptop with your. You blogged while watching pron. Why do it differently to lower you quality of your blog.
Boobies!
@Step666: dude, 1997 called ... it wants its ad back. seriously though, i worked for mastercard that's why i'm so annoyed by anyone who still uses that shtick.
@homerjay: or they'd be a liar which is apparently worse than a masturbator if you're chrisitian. those crazy christians!
I don't know about you people, but i'd rather bring my girlfriend and get the real thing. But that's just me.
@Propofol: wow haha u just made my day
I bring my laptop when I travel so I have access to a World Wide Web of porn.
laptop+usb cable+blakcjack=painfully slow but free internet connection thanks to unlimited data plan.
"Homemade"? Whoooaaaa there buddy. What are you guys trying to trick me into? I thought it was BYOP.
Indeed

I think you guys will have a lot of claims coming from readers with neck injury. Thanks, Gizmodo!
@Paradise: I know it's been done and all but it fits pretty well this time.
Haha, when the hotel has free wifi who the hell reading this website would actually pay for hotel porn.
Is everyone who reads this blog a boy or something?
Damn... she's freakin' insanely hot.
Nice post Jason!
Why isn't there an option along the lines of "I don't view porn" so we can see what percentage of people are liars?
Hotel porns are still cheaper than the peanuts.. i will take the porn
Lol, I bittorrent porn. FREE PORN, FTW.

rofl.
is there a way to flip FF -90 deg....my neck sorta hurts trying to get a better view ..:-)
Is "sack lunch" supposed to be a pun?
Biased poll though - a Gizmodo crowd will generally know how to hook the Zen Vision player to the input jacks on the HD TV in the hotel room.
Your average modern Willy Loman wanna-be isn't going to have those chops.
Who the fuck buys porn?
@Propofol: You sound like my former state governor... hrmmmm
Def hotel WiFi... have you ever watched those horrendous hotel pay-per-view movies? If you have, you know the meaning of the phrase "strategically positioned furniture"
I prefer Macs to Windows...
Discuss, fanboys.
Holy crap that chick is hot! And I'd just use the internet there or something.
@moukkis: Curta Handheld FTW!
What a way to end a Monday. ;D
I'm too young to get a hotel.
Let alone, if I was at a hotel, it'd have to be with a woman, if I'm lucky enough to lure her with the "look at my cute puppy" (note: I don't own any puppies or dogs...or pets for that matter...)
Besides, we'd be too busy making new stories than to watch any...
I prefer Reon Kaneda, but its all good. And definitely keep the stash on the portable HD.
@flyingdream: er, gadget blog, hello?
@JazzmanSA80, bookmark, Trowble (XBL/PSN) & kaneshadow: lmao, thanks.
Hotel rooms? They have porn?
Homemade... but I would gladly order some hotel porn if it feature that star on the pic.
While Canadian hotel porn doesn't cut out before the money shot like US hotel porn, free in-room broadband pretty much precludes TV porn entirely. The internet is just such a better porn-delivery mechanism.
Definitely one of the cutest Japanese porn stars.

where's the "i bring my ladies to my hotel room" option?
hell her and maria ozawa can be in my HD porn all nite long!
bring thy own pr0n and save your self from shame.
can't go wrong with torrents with VLC.
I work for one of the companies that provides those free WiFi connections in Hotels, and I can tell you that:
1) A lot of people get a lot of porn from the internet. And they're not shy about calling up our help desk when, for some reason, they can't get to it.
2) Many hotels are dropping the PPV systems because no one buys the pr0n anymore.
Do we think these might be related?
Losers buy porn. You can easily find it for free.
Sora Aoi would be perferrable for the spelling of her name. She used to be the #1 AV (adult video) model in the japanese porn industry for a long time.
@saych: So does she just model or does she, er..."act" in adult movies?
@saych: Who's #1 now?
@lecti: Asus Eee PC FTW :) Just rotate the entire laptop :P
With a ginormous library just a download away, what the hell would one grab the hotel stuff for?
@Jason Chen: Saych's mom.
Stream it from my home PC to my PSP.
@Pope John Peeps II: Ouch...
@Paradise: is obsessed with Christians and should not speak for them because he does not have a clue. Seriously, you are really obsessed with Christians... Why?
When traveling to foreign countries, I definitely like hotel porn because it's an educational look into that culture's porn industry as well as a way to spend the lonely night after I've struck out with all the Finnish/Parisian/Italian/wherever-I-am women.
In America, I just surf the net.
Sora Aoi is her name (I think).
who on earth are you people and how do you do it? hotel porn or b.y.o.p? how do you even get to that point? some days it's a miracle i can dredge up the strength of will to look away from my home monitor long enough to keep my day job. between fleshbot and the occasional giz tomato, it's a wonder i can feed myself.
(too much information...?)
