There would definitely be a downside commercially if porn were to be declared uncopyrightable (not that i think it has any chance of happening). Sure there might be amateur free porn that would still be made, but there wouldn't be many production houses that would stay in business if they no longer received profit from the sale of their work. Many smaller production houses run on extremely tight margins, and after making sure cameramen, models, and everybody else gets paid, there is not much capacity to lose money on distribution and still remain profitable. You would no doubt seeing at least smaller porn production houses closing. I would hope at least the people who at least believe in the utility of porn enough to distribute it would see this as a bad thing. Anti-pornography crusader types would likely see this as a victory.
