Yes it's stronger today, yes the girls have less hair and the image is clearer. But basically it's changed very very little.
Marketing porn has changed. now it's about a race to give away as much as possible in the hope 1-5,000 will buy. Don't tell me about your ratios, that's clicks on a banner to a site. Not people consuming free porn.
Producing porn has changed little. Except for the style of the girls clothing. Girls and lovers were using Polaroid cameras long before digital and there were loads of places to get prints done that couldn't of gone to Kodak. Video tape meant people could film themselves 30 + years ago without having to get cine film developed.
So what has changed?
The business is full of people today who would of gone broke in a few months in 1995.
More people consume porn than ever before and less pay for it.
Can't think of anything else. So tell me please.

If you really are writing a book, I think you could write a ton about 40 years of experiences in the adult industry. You could also write about the trends in online porn.
6-7 years ago it was all about MGP's
3-4 years ago everyone had a hard-on for blogs and rss feeds
Now its all about tubes
The next step is pay tubes, and everything swinging towards live chats.
You can write about the empires that have risen and fallen
