Go back to early 90's porn. It is so much better than today's stuff. The girls are better looking, actually seem to enjoy it, and they are more "girl next door".

I agree with this wholeheartedly, except for the last sentence. I've written on many internet forums about the male performers, asking, "Why all the anger? You're getting paid to have sex with beautiful women, yet there seems to be so many control and anger issues - the gagging, choking, slapping, etc. When did sex become not about both people enjoying themselves? Why the humiliation and anger?"
As for the girls being better looking a decade ago - I'm not so sure. Perhaps American girls are getting to be too much the fake-boob blond caricature (except for some beautiful natural-looking exceptions like Tori Black), but the European girls are getting absolutely gorgeous nowadays. Of course, my beef with the European porn industry is that they don't seem capable of making a scene any more without anal - it's way overdone there.
My biggest concern is that there is now an internet-saturated generation growing up getting a majority of their "sex education" from porn. I worry how that will affect some women's ideas about their sexuality and their role in relationships. I mean, if you think it's normal to let some dude write "cunt" on your forehead with a Sharpie, then let him and his buddies fuck your throat till you puke, you're gonna grow up with some serious issues.
Hopefully everyone still knows the difference between reality and the fantasy (perverted as it may have become) of porn.
EDIT: After re-reading
Salem's post above, I didn't mean to come off as a porn-hater. Quite the opposite - I like porn. A lot. I'm just very discriminating in what I download and watch. With the ubiquity of internet porn now, one can afford to be picky.
