The main thing is there is a major psychological difference between being paid to have sex with someone else who is being paid to have sex and being paid to have sex with someone who is paying for sex.
Like most laws, they are tradition based, as well.
From a utilitarian standpoint (hate to quote Wikipedia, but):
The same can't be said about prostitution.

I agree with the major psychological difference. I'm sure a lot of the people who do porn regularly really get little to no sexual enjoyment out of it anymore, and it's just a job to them, whereas with prostitution at least one person is in it just to get off. Of course anyone watching the porn is in it just to get off, but if the people performing are just acting out a role and never have to see the random guy jacking off to them, I guess that disconnect makes it easier for people to view porn as legitimate while prostitution is "immoral" I don't know, my two cents.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
