Porn has been around since ancient times, you can find porn from the ancient greeks to the 1800's United States, and all eras in between here and abroad. What are you talking about that it was started in the 70's?? Playboy magazine started publishing in 1953.
Yeah, cause prohibition works so well.
However the 70s is about the time that higher quality films showing performers actually having penetrative sex with others in public around America happened with limited police interference.

I think you're wrong about that. They certainly became more mainstream starting in the 60's and 70's but those films existed decades before that. They were just underground. Everything about sex became more mainstream and open in that period, that's why they call it the Sexual Revolution.
Parents ordered by Michigan Judge to pay $30,441 for porn collection, and I dont know if that's including or in addition, $14,500 for the son's attorney fees.

I said earlier it’s not so much about it being pornography but more about it being a collection worth some money. Vintage porn is collectible just like comic books are.

That is absolutely ridiculous. This man moved those magazines into his parents' home, lived with them rent free for 10 months and then when he finally moved out he expected his elderly parents to move and deliver 12 boxes of porn to him along with the rest of his possessions?

His poor parents. What an idiotic judge.
His parents did deliver the rest of his possessions, why it was they who delivered his stuff is not addressed (perhaps they had a van or big SUV) and told him the porn collection had been "destroyed". Per the article, the man did work in and around the house in exchange for staying there. They all agreed to those terms. The only reason the porn was destroyed is they didn't approve of it, not because they didn't want to deliver it. If they had told him "we don't believe porn is decent so you will have to pick that up yourself" there wouldn't be any lawsuit. The father said it took them "quite a while" to destroy it, so the intention was certainly not to save time and energy.
If that collection was valued at $30,000, which apparently it was, they owe him that money. You can't just destroy people's property because you don't approve of it, even if it's on your property. I don't like drones, but if one gets stuck in a tree on my property, I can't just choose to destroy it (which has been upheld in courts).
Why are you assuming they are elderly? He was 39 years old when he filed the suit, they would have been in their early 60's most likely.

He abandoned that porn in his parents' house and they had absolutely no obligation to continue to warehouse it much less pick those heavy boxes up and move them to their worthless son's new place.
If he had wanted to keep that porn he should have brought it with him.
How did they even know that the porn was legal? If there were images of minors in that stack they could have gotten into serious trouble just having that on their property much less moving it across different states to deliver it to their son.

I hope they disown their son after this.
Lots of speculation, contempt, and opinion infused in your post. It matters not one bit in the eyes of the law.
The judge saw otherwise. Only the judge's opinion counts in the court of law.
The fact that you wish for discord for their family, hoping that the parents end their relationship with their own child, what does that say about the feelings you harbor in your heart? Is the kingdom of god there?
I guess I missed an opportunity to sue my parents. I entrusted them with my vinyl album collection, about 300 albums. My mother saw one album by the band Free which displayed a light blue picture of a girl running from underneath her. You couldn't see any genitalia, but my mother thought it was over the top and burned all the albums in a burn barrel. I never thought to sue, couldn't have afforded it anyway, but never left anything with them again. I only remember a few of the albums as this happened almost 50 years ago.
