I'm sure the genre of erotica has to have more to it than porn, but, similarly, while Playboy DOES have good articles, I would not believe anyone who said they don't subscribe for "anything but" the articles.

Yes but we are talking about 50 Shades here which is suppose to be Erotica but in my book would fall into the line of Romantica even though I didn't think the relationship was healthy. Erotica is used in a large broad spectrum. If I limited myself to Romance genre I would miss out on alot of great writers. Some writers do write for both Genre's like Lora Leigh, Maya Banks, Jaci Burton...etc.
I have read Erotic Romance that was more tame than say a Harlequin Blaze book which focused on sex throughout the book. It's just alot of folks assume that there is one kind of Erotica and there's not. There's some good stuff out there with great stories that doesn't fit into the Romance mold.
I am a huge romance reader but I do read Erotic Romance occasionally. I don't find it like Porn and yes I have read Men's idea of Erotica is my curious teen days and these stories are nothing like them.
