I agree. Streaming video was always the example I heard, but the only reason porn started using it first (to any extent) is because nobody but the horny would have put up with the absolutely abysmal quality it had. IOW it was totally unusable for anything else/worthwhile.
As for webcams, is there a genuine (interesting) non-porn use for them even today?
I do however believe that porn, especially when the media got hysterical about it, kickstarted the net by encouraging a lot of people (aka men) to get online.
But that was free porn.
