just a general question:
Are these cable tv softcore movies available anywhere?

I haven't had cable or HBO for years and years, so I was shocked and amazed to find how good these softcore cable movies could be one night when I was staying over at someone's house. Haven't seen any of them since, as there doesn't seem to be a market for them at any of the local pornshops. Are they made available by any internet rental company or for purchase somehow?

It was great to see the camera focus in on the bodies for once and capture the good looking stuff. It was totally erotic! Much moreso than the real thing, oddly. (Perhaps a sad commentary on hardcore, so I won't get into that.) I don't know if all cable softcore is that good or if my reaction was based on being new to the genre, or what. But for years I've been yelling at the TV because there's a beautiful woman having sex and all that the hardcore pornographers ever manage to do is toggle back and forth between nearly useless shots of a boob, a penetration shot, an elbow, penetration, the top of her forehead, back to penetration, etc.....

This was a refreshing change. Is getting cable the only way to see them?

A refreshing change indeed. Unfortunately, most of those PPV gems are really hard to trace on DVD, especially in their unrated versions. So far, the only way I've found to obtain unexpurgated clips of these movies is to subscribe to a premium site, where members take an active pride in uploading clips from these movies almost as soon as they're aired. But few of those clips are archived so they wont stay more than one month on the premium board. Me & other softcore enthusiasts have appealed to prolific producer Robert Lombard on another softcore board (www.sreviews.com) for release of unrated DVDs of those movies on his site, but so far nothing really concrete has happened.

Eight years ago they were on VHS. There was a local video store, that in their adult section, stocked the cable softcore titles. They had, if memory serves correctly, about 60 titles at any given time. As they got older and didn't rent as fast they sold them to make room for more incoming titles. They, unfortunately, went out of business so I can't ask them about their current availability. I would assume that the rental market is still there and they are probably still available. I'd guess that your best bet would be to find a small semi-local video store that still has an adult section and carries the softcore titles and ask them about how they get them (distributors etc). Many many years ago another local video store, which is also out of business now, would order me any title available through their distributors for their cost. I'm sure there are still Mom & Pop style operations that will do that for you. I'd avoid chain type stores though as they probably wouldn't be much help to you. Hope this might help you.
Edited to add: This was before the DVD boom so the titles were only VHS at the time. I don't know anything about whether the trend continued to DVD.
