In finland we have a system that ALL videos must be sent to be approved by Finnish Board of Film Classification. Each video is then given an unique identifier number which you must put out either on the back of the DVD, or next to the clip on the internet. example: http://www.porngreen.com/fi/ see the "X-#######" over each of the big thumbs? That's the identifier.

These are all in one big central database (this includes 'mainstream' hollywood movies too), where you can see who made the movie, who produced it, where, when, and whether the clip in question is legal or not. They manually review only fetish-stuff and teen porn.. 'vanilla porn' is automatically approved. Criminal charges are brought upon anyone who sells either non-marked movies, or movies that are deemed illegal (ie. Bumfights is illegal, as is rape and violence pornography).

Similar system in the US would help clear the air.
