San Francisco To Get Gay Porn on Cable

MM-PlaygirlTVComcast.jpgGay porn is big business on the internet, but San Francisco will soon break new ground by offering gay porn on it's cable system. Transdigital Media, publisher of Playgirl magazine, is programming a test channel in association with Comcast Cable offering up pay-per-view porn on the network in the Bay Area, and several other test markets including Chicago, Minneapolis and areas of Texas. The video-on-demand channel is part of a larger initiative by Comcast to provide both straight and gay markets with adult content.

"They knew there was money in the gay market, but they didn't want to be associated with gay adult content," said a source close to the deal. "But then again, they don't really brag about any of their adult offerings."

While Comcast did not return our calls, Transdigital Media is celebrating the launch of the service with two events thrown by NY club promoter Daniel Nardicio and featuring porn star (and Playgirl model) Ben Andrews. Andrews, a Lucas Entertainment Exclusive, is the star of several of the titles debuting on the channel. They've even got a petition going to help bring gay porn to the hungry masses everywhere.
