I think that with the internet porn has definitely become more mainstream and easily accessible.
People may not be able to name porn stars... but I think that there could be many reasons for that over-exposure being one.
In my father's generation I would have had to enter a video store or convenience store to buy/rent porn. Now if I want I can access it anonymously via the internet (which I did once when I was less aware of the sort of harmful effects it can have).
Also cable/satellite TV brings it right to your TV with the flick of a switch.
