That was why the video producers, both mainstream and porn, charged far more for a rental copy than a sales copy. Same movie, different license.
Seriously go do some research.

Sorry my friend... I have done the research. The mid 90's to 2000, sales were easily 10x what they were in the 80's. Hell, today we still make more sales, online alone, than all sales of every sex product in the 80's.
No amount of math in the world could change this, it's very basic. Still today, we have millions of more people that can buy porn and do buy porn, than ever before. I have millions of more possible clients than the 80's ever could have had.
Porn went from a medium of 3 or 4 things, to hundreds of different mediums. It went from a few 100ish pornographers, to a hundreds of thousands porn site owners in 10 years.
It's not even a competition. Single paysites today, just one paysite, is larger than the biggest producers of porn in the 80's.
