Of course it is great if he wins, but what about the alternative?

ok, so you want me to play arm-chair attorney lol
if he loses, then it sets the precedent that cities and states can define what is obscene to their "community standards", and would put a chilling effect on all porn.
"softcore" or "mainstream" porn can be "obscene" by folks who don't like any resemblance to human fornication. So while Max's video are probably very hard for the jury to watch, and they will probably fine no artistic value in them at all in being grossed out, it is up to sirkin and douglas to remind the jury and the judge about the law and to return the not guilty verdict.
The impact affects both dvd and internet folks. for websites, some guy in some po-dunk town could be truly enjoying the internet video, but some hard-on whacko may have an agenda to rid the world of porn and start badgering his DA to follow suit and file suit like the Max Hardcore case.
Fight the analysis!
