Livedoor president Takafumi Horie faced a battery of questions from Japanese baseball officials regarding the adult content of his company's Web site.
Livedoor is one of two Internet services companies bidding to form a new professional baseball team for the 2005 season.
The other company, Rakuten, also has links to adult content, but gaining access is more difficult and requires users to be over the age of 18.
In Thursday's meetings, Horie was asked by several members of the panel about the adult content on the Livedoor Web site and whether he thought it was appropriate for a company wanting to enter Japanese professional baseball.
Rakuten, which also holds shares of J. League team Vissel Kobe, is widely regarded as having the inside track in getting a baseball team. A final decision will be made Nov. 2.
