Interestingly, the first porn I ever saw was an 8mm short film at a stag party. I had never even seen a real porn photograph before. It made a lasting impression on me. It climaxed with the male cumming in the female's mouth..... I had never even heard of or thought of blowjobs before that movie. I guess you could say that's a long time ago.

My first porn movie purchase was a Beta as I owned a Betamax back in the day. The quality was better, but the format never caught on as VHS had more movie studios behind it.
I eventually gave the Betamax away to a collector who still has it and uses it as it still works fine.
It made me think of this question as I was curious as to what members first purchase was of an adult porn scene.

VHS for me. I was aware of the 8mm format since it was advertised in magazines but the chances of successfully ordering an 8mm film and having it get across the border into Canada was about zero. Then again, having it delivered to my parent's house wouldn't have been a good idea either. VHS ruled my collection for about 10 years before DVDs took over. Every day I say a prayer of thanks for the modern internet and digital technology.

I don't remember the title of the two movies I first bought, but it would have been in 1984 or 1985. It wasn't legal to sell, buy or possess in Canada at the time. I don't know how I found this out, but a stereo shop down the road sold bootlegged VHS copies for $30 each. I distinctly remember one of the scenes but the title is lost to the mists of time...

8mm and 16mm were the first formats I saw but VHS was the one where I started to enjoy what I was seeing.

My uncle lived with us. We had this VCR that he acted like was a pot of gold. It was a Beta and he had 6-8 Beta porn tapes. Which is why it was a pot of gold. He didn't have any other porn and had to keep the Beta player protected to watch them on. Of course, once I figured this out he bribed me with full access to it anytime I wanted to use it if I didn't tell my mom.

This is really more of an age question isn't it?
My first owned porn video was a VHS tape in the mid 80's. My local video store had a back room and I would buy the videos I really liked. I was given well over 1000 VHS tapes in the late 80s and early 90s as a big family oriented video chain bought out smaller ones and I got the back room inventory that would otherwise have been discarded. I only kept the best few of those though and now all are long gone. Funny to think that I probably have 100 times more HD digital content on a couple of hard drives than I did with many boxes of tapes.

I didn't know porn came in 16mm film formats (pun intended). 16mm would have cost a lot more money and 8mm (super 8) projectors were common at the time.
I also remember sneaking into the adult part of a bookstore my mother went to and saw 8mm reels as well as projectors for sale.
PS: Yea, this could be a question of age but I was thinking formats of the past, skippy. I was born early 1960s and remember the '70s quite well when it came to porn.

I bought my first Beta porn cassette in 1986-87. I bought one featuring a porn star who was wildly popular at the time only to find out a week or so later that she had been underage (16) at the time she made her videos. Now came a mad scramble, how to get rid of the tape. :-) Darn, my age is showing, I forgot her name, maybe the rearadmiral might remember. It was quite the scandal in porn circles because she had everyone fooled.

Traci Lords comes to mind as she claimed to have been underage when she started out in porn. She went on to cult status appearing in many later John Waters movies.

VHS. Surprise! Can't quite remember what it was. (Another surprise.) Maybe one with Raquel Darrian. Remember her? I'll bet.

It was circa 1987 when I sent a check for $64.95 (probably two hundred bucks in today's dollars) to a now long defunct video place in Chicago. Waited a month for the check to clear and the VHS tape to arrive. But that's the time frame the ad from the back of Esquire magazine said it would take.
