I think one of the differences between porn and erotica is the connection to reality. In porn the characters can be perfect 10's or do all sorts of 'sexual' acts some of which would get them arrested in the real world while in erotica things are more realistic in nature. There is more of an emotional investment in the characters in erotica too. You get to know some of the hopes, dreams and desires of the characters and how such are related to the sexual interactions of the characters. In porn on the other hand the point is merely to get the characters into bed and let them go at it. Their momentary desires are all that matters. No emotional investment, no getting to know the other person. Just pleasure for its own sake.
