If you need additional motivation to shell out big bucks for the Oculus Rift, consider this enticing announcement by Pornhub: The company has launched a completely free channel featuring more than two dozen videos of virtual reality porn with up to full 360-degrees of visual immersion.
While other companies in the adult industry have launched VR channels, Pornhub’s videos being free will likely be a game-changer.
“At Pornhub it is our duty to provide our global audience with the latest in cutting edge technology,” said Pornhub’s Vice President, Corey Price. “Virtual reality is the next phase in the constantly metamorphosing world of adult entertainment, and will provide users with a mesmeric experience unlike anything they’ve seen before.”
Pornhub, who partnered with BaDoinkVR in this project, says their VR videos will be playable with not only the Oculus Rift but also other VR headsets including Google Cardboard and Samsung Gear VR.
Of course, there are a couple of catches. First of all, without a paid membership, videos max out at 720p rather than 1080p. Additionally, as you’d expect, early reports indicate that there are a lot of ads in the free version.
