Porn fans exposed to virtual reality — the industry’s ‘next big thing’

“The headset is uncomfortable so you really can’t put on a headset and spend hours watching porn,” noted Brian Shuster, CEO of Utherverse, which creates online virtual environments. “Hopefully we’re going to be able to push the headset manufacturers to be able to produce lighter, easier, more durable headsets.”
