Ha! I wasn't trying to be rude. Just being lazy because I've had a stressful day and am tired but am having a hard time falling asleep.
Basically what I meant was that when people say that porn, both the industry and the product, was so much better way back when, the best way to figure out why that is is to compare and contrast the typical mindset of those who created back then versus the typical mindset of those who create now. If you do that it's easy to see why things are the way they are and are no longer the way they were.
I mean, it shouldn't be all that surprising that things were better when the typical mindset of the creators was more along the lines of...
'Wow. This is so awesome! I can't believe it's legal for us to be doing what we're doing! Let's live it up and make the best porn we can possibly make because not only is doing so fun as hell but I really do think that what we're doing is important. And if the money comes, it comes. If it doesn't, it doesn't. Whatever. Oh well. At least we'll enjoy the process.'
...rather than the typical mindset of a majority of creators today, which is more along the lines of...
'I want to be able to make this for as cheaply as possible so as I can maximize profit. What corners can I cut? Nobody gives a shit about anything anymore anyway. Most guys are just looking for something to watch while having a quick wank. Fuck'em!'?
