I'm of the opinion that the prevalence of such pornography markets are a symptom of a disease and not the disease itself.

Ultimately, I agree. If I want to make a film as raunchy as Max Hardcore, is it my fault that the film goes on to sell 20, 30 or 50,000 copies? Obviously he is catering to a demographic that is willing to spend hard-earned money on his films.

In a better world, he'd have never made a penny of his work.

In a better world, he'd have never made a penny of his work.

And I might add that, in an earlier time, Mr. Hardcore would have been tarred, feathered and given a ride out of town on a rail long before the matter came to the attention of any law enforcement agency or the courts.
