Why would any well adjusted person have a desire to view porn on a regular basis? Because it helps them satisfy a biological urge. Porn is as old as human civilization, questioning the desire for it is no different than questioning our desire to listen to music, admire artwork, or tell a joke.

As for who needs it, I couldn't give you a psychological breakdown. I know there are a lot of single people out there, people who are not getting sex in their marriage, or even people who do have someone and enjoy the stimulation of watching porn with their partner. I know that billions of dollars of it are sold every year. Hotels, cable networks, and newstands carry it for a reason. Cell phone porn is expected to do over $3 billion by 2011 and companies like Girls Gone Wild somehow continue to profit from running late night commercials.

So you can continue to say people don't need it, or there is little desire by the public for it, but the people and companies who have made millions and will continue to make millions would disagree.
