The person realizes that interacting with porn gives them a rush. The addiction / compulsion become a chase to re-experience that rush. Viewing porn becomes a life priority. Relationships, resources, work, and having real intimacy start being ignored, sometimes with life damaging consequences.
One theory cites that viewing porn (and its initial rush) starts to "re-wire" the pleasure centers of the brain and it become increasingly difficult to break these new brain circuits.

M$B) Not every one has the same rigid (some would say antiquated) beliefs that you do. Thus, pornography consumption is not only not a deal-breaker but not seen as a negative. In fact, sometimes it's a positive to a relationship.
C) Many medical doctors, psychologists and psychiatrists believe that pornography is actually a HEALTHY outlet. see: http://www.oprah.com/relationships/Dr-Laura-Berman-on-Watching-Porn-Video

M$Not all men have the perfect relationships, or even the perfect girl. When there is something better for a person temporarily, he/she would be tempted to try it. Just like how cigarette smoking/alcoholism works. Most porn websites feature girls that are sexy, cute and adventurous (?). Single or in a relationship, most men will fantasize about having that kind of woman, and being in the guy's place. I can't really call it an important matter or a necessity, but the access to it is very easy and it's just there, temptations will always be around the corner. Also, consider human nature. Everyone strives to be happy, and if their happiness goes like that way, there isn't that much we can do for we all have different perspectives.
My opinion.

M$The main reason for viewing porn is for the purpose of masturbation, but there are many reasons for needing to use porn for this purpose. One reason is ED, and this reason is likely to become more significant in the US as our population ages.

M$"I don't get is why so very many people are totally hooked on porn"
++The same could be said about Mahalo.com. I've answered questions well into 4:00 or 5:00 a.m.
" I know it is a billions of dollars industry and is spreading even more with the internet."
++If people can find a way to make money, they will. Not all of the porn sites are actually run by people in porn; I'd be surprised if even 5% of them were. More like entrepreneurs who have taken what's available on the market and are just re-selling it.But understand it or not, it's a simple supply-and-demand thing, and a question of giving the customer what they want--and getting YOUR store's product to someone Whatever that product is. The most brilliant example, and I'm not shilling for them, just using them as an illustration, is whitehouse.com. SOMEONE (unfortunately not me) got smart when the web was building up and jumped on that domain. Barack Obama: whitehouse.GOV. Porn: whitehouse.COM.
" I just don't understand the total draw of it"
++You don't have to understand the draw of it. It seems likely that for you there is no draw.
++But it exists for some, and one person's s trash is another person's treasure.
"or how many people are willing to risk their relationships because of it.
++Not everyone who watches porn is throwing their life away. On those who are, see below.
" How can it be that important?"
++You said that you understand addiction. I worked for a Drug & Alcohol Education program at a major state university. Addiction is addiction is addiction. It's very easy to explain how it can be so important. Take out "porn" and substitute it with any of the following: coke, crack, heroin, meth, ecstasy, weed, acid, OTC painkillers, prescription painkillers, huffing, whip-its, alcohol, cigarettes...
++It doesn't have to be porn or a chemical, per se: Addiction is defined as: "The state of being addicted; devotion; inclination; A habit or practice that damages, jeopardizes or shortens one's life but when ceased causes trauma; A pathological relationship to mood altering experience that has life damaging consequences"
++It could also be food or shopping. I've seen examples of both.

M$But you can also think the other way round.
Most people dont know that watching porn may ruin their live.................Yeah,i am right.Ask a porn addicted person that why do they watch porn?they will say that it make them feel good.But if you tell them the thousands of negative aspects of watching a porn video then they will hopefully restrain their self from it.

M$With a little practice you can slowly learn to appreciate the vast variety the human body has to offer...please, please, please.... what the world needs now is not more judgmental people who teach our children to be so repressed that when they are finally in a sexual relationship they do not know how to act and they feel extreme guilt as if there is something wrong with them because they are turned on, the world needs people who embrace the different interests of each other, I suggest you start with some of the more classy fine art nude photography such as the art photos on the site below. We are animals, sexual desire is not an addiction it is in the deepest levels of our DNA...that insatiable desire is the only thing that has allowed our species or any other on the planet to still exist today.
