The reality, however, is more complex. There was an official, studio-released "XXX" version of the "How Do You Want It" music video. Death Row Records, for all its gangster posturing, was still a commercial label bound by distribution deals. They would not produce hardcore pornography under the 2Pac brand.
The most common reality of the "XXX Version" was disappointment. A user would spend 45 minutes downloading the 13 MB .mpeg file on a 28.8k modem, only to open it and find: 2Pac - How Do You Want It -XXX Version-.mpeg
