Just because porn existed doesn't mean it was a "staple" of society. It would have been too expensive for the average person to afford.
Even 20 years ago porn was too expensive for the average person to afford very much of it.

The mechanics have not changed significantly, even as we spend more time searching for "novel" mp3s and video. Do we have a "problem" with Netflix? Pandora? I spend constant (wasted) hours cataloging and retagging my music collection.
