Brick and motar porn shops are more likely to get busted because it's easier, but yes there have been cases. One in Tampa a couple of years back I believe.

What are the penalties in the US if you would get convicted for obscenity? Does artful fullnude pictures like met-art.com really stand out as obscenity?

Thanks!
Obscenity is defined by the area where you are being charged. In LA almost anything goes. In Alabama you can go to jail for selling dildoes. You can get anything from a fine and probation to 10 or more years in prison.
