Could be a much better site - certainly its advertisement is good, but the site isn't as good as the ads. Too small a collection of videos to justify the price. Very little hardcore. Used to be better in the past.
I just joined the dancingbear.com 2 day trial. The videos have no download option even though on their website it says "Watch or download this video" on every video update! Before it just stated "watch this video" but now since they updated this to "Watch or download this video" on all the videos, I decided to try it. In the members area no download option was available (8-26-10)you can still only stream the videos. I explained this to customer service in a email but in response they just cancelled my membership without commenting on the download video false advertising. I expected more from Bangbros, the owner of this site!
Outdoors sets, apparently shot in Eastern Europe interest me. Also those done in bars, public transportation and so on. Are they all acted with no real bypassers? I guess it'd be hard to find a bus driver that accepts that kind of action, a bar owner might be easier with even willing audience. Of course it's clear that all the touching and action is scripted, if for nothing else, at least to avoid STD's and such.
The newer stuff seems to be more indoors sadly. I wouldn't really call it public if it was shot in a private party or event.
Does anyone have connection issues with this site?
This is the only site where I have problems signing in, as well as navigate within the site once I'm in. If I want to be successful I have to hit the "reload page" button on my browser over and over until I finally connect. Just clicking once on the link won't do it because if I do it that way I could sit there for minutes waiting for a page to load and it never does. I thought it might be my browser but this is the only site where this happens. Any helpful suggestions would be appreciated.
I think the rearadmiral has done a great job summing up this Kink site. While BDSM is not really one of my niches I must say that the scenes I have watched so far are worth a subscription. Quality and inventiveness are excellent.
This was originally intended to be a review, but...
It's been quite a while since I had membership at this site (around August 09). I wanted to write a review at the time so I took some notes, but then it got forgotten during my busy summer days... so I decided to post some things about it as a comment instead.
I joined because I received a 1-month special price for any kink.com site for $19.95 (not recurring). At this price I felt like checking out Public Disgrace, which overall brought exactly what I expected, nothing more, nothing less.
A few facts from back that time:
- Average set of pictures seemed to be usually between 130 - 160 pictures, but would range from 60 to 300 in some cases. There's an option for low (533x800) and high (1200x675) resolutions.
- Video length was around 60 minutes on average, while there were some clips that were only 20 minutes long, some were close to 90 though. You have the choice to download the scenes or the whole movies in 4 different formats: ipod mp4 640x360, hd mp4 (highest quality) 1280x720, hd wmv 1280x720, wmv 960x540 (and I could stream these too though); plus there's flash streaming too (selectable low, medium or high quality settings).
- Download speed varied between 400kb/s to 900kb/s (very satisfying), but when doing multiple downloads at once I reached the total of 1500kb/s download speed, which is straight forward great
- Updates seemed to come every 4 - 7 days
I missed that I had no access to any other sites of their network. On the other hand you do get some bonus, random hardcore material that's compiled from all their network's sites, plus you get the "Behind Kink" which shows you some behind the scenes stuff which was interesting.
I liked the site's design and structure, I thought it was very easy to navigate... at the time the only thing they lacked was a 'download all pictures in one' direct link, but that's about it. You can look up models, find out about all the scenes they did for Kink, and they also have a calendar where you can see the upcoming shootings.
As a side note, I feel pretty confident that all the action done by supposedly outsiders was faked. Also, in regards of the previous comment from mbaya about the legality of their outside actions, I do have to agree that it's somewhat worrying. I have not heard of any country in the world that would allow the possibility of underage people coming across public sex / porn filming in public, and there are situations where it's obvious that they just disregarded these regulations (where the tram or cars passed by, etc). Sure it's probably rather easy to get away with it on spot in Eastern Europe, but the fact that they - as a huge network - can get away with this on the long run and make money in North - America by selling the very proof of their irresponsible practices is somewhat concerning. Then I might be wrong.
Overall it was good but nothing extraordinary. As far as I know regular price would be $29.95/month, which I'd think is a little too much for what you get.
I recently wrote in the forums of this site and my critique was removed in less than 24 hours. Please note that #6 was wrong and I did add a reply to note this. Basically, the video I thought was reposts was video that appeared on another site (jackass-nudebeach.com) so it was not reposted for this site. Here is what I wrote:
Subject: We are not that stupid
While I appreciate the site there are several problems that could be addressed to make the site much better. However, I am guessing that those who own/manage it are soooo rich that they do not care to make more money, or they smoke pot all day and are unmotivated to improve it. In either case here is what needs to be fixed, because for those of use who subscribe and browse the collection from time to time...to put it bluntly...we are not that stupid to notice that...
1. Making 20 videos out of a single 5 minuet clip and then spreading them over a 5 month period doesn't mean that the site has more content. It just means the user has to spend more time downloading a bunch of short clips instead of one. I assume the owners feel this increases the appearance of their content and/or dissuades users from using more bandwidth. In either case it sucks and makes the experience second rate to quality adult sites.
2. Video shot from above that shows shoulders and bald-headed men plain suck and should appear very rarely. If I wanted to look at the tops of naked bald headed men I would find a spot in the ceiling of the men's locker room at the local YMCA.
3. High Definition video is NOT up-converted standard definition video OR compressed HD video made to be smaller in file size so that users use less bandwidth. Just because a video appears in HD aspect ratios doesn't make it HD, and yes we can tell. Come on most of us HAVE HD or are members of sites that offer REAL HD (e.g. ilovethebeach.com). Real HD doesn't take up 9MB for 17 sec clips but about 50+MB.
4. Did I mention how STUPID clips that are less than 1 minuet are...
5. Taking captures of the REAL HD video (which is not made available to subscribers) and then posting it as "pictures" is weak. It is quite obvious that this is what you are doing...
6. You may have 190+ pages of video content (mostly due to the STUPID 17 second clips), but that doesn't mean you need to repost so many videos. Sure most people will get tired of wading through the STUPID 17 second clips, but those of us with memories longer than goldfish are quite aware of how many reposts appear in the course of a year.
To summarize this site could be SUPER cool. It could have the quality that ilovethebeach.com has with its content. But it appears that those who manage this site are cheap and prefer to cut corners and maintain their profit margin instead of increase it. It could be such a great site too which is what makes it a shame...I do wish they read this and consider some of what I have said (even if it was caustic and sarcastic).
reply quote
Even though it's not marketed with any other networks, does anybody know what "family" this site belongs to? Kind of like how BrandiBelle is run by the Bang Bros people but it's not marketed or included in their network.
The tour of this page looks similar to some networks out there all the way down to design but I can't figure it out. There's a special deal if you are a Bang Bros member, but they have deals for Reality Kings, Twisty's, etc. as well so "Dancing Bear" is not necessarily run by them.
This site seems like an interesting genre that hasn't been touched, although I don't believe that the women actually doing the bj's or sex are "real women" as the tour videos say. It's probably like other reality sites (bang bus) where models mix in with "real women" in a real-life situation and the one's that actually start to do stuff for the camera are the models.
I joined last month, mostly cause I've always been curious about the site. The price was right- $4.95 for the first two weeks, then $8.95 a month after that, so I took a two-week peek. Unfortunately, there's so little to see, I couldn't even put a decent review together.
13 models, some with a set or two, some with a few more, for a total of just under 4000 pictures. The pictures are definitely the strong suit for this site, running in the 1300 x 800 range. There are only 10 videos up in wmv format that average under 2 minutes a piece. They looked okay - 640x360 resolution - but they're just so damn short. The update schedule is erratic as hell, some coming about 2 weeks apart.
If I had to put a number on it, I'd give it a 70. Nice concept that seriously needs to grow.
When the site was launched this fall, there was a lot of concern being shown in the members forum about the legality or appropriateness of shooting in public. The outdoor scenes were deliberately shot in Eastern Europe, where laws are less strict than in the US, as well as the fact that penalties and fines are lower. Immediately members from Eastern Europe had a lot to say. What also generated a lot of criticism from members was that many scenes seemed to show no concern if children, or even adults were witnesses without their consent. The rules at present do not permit children to be witnesses, nor unwilling adults. Many scenes have cars passing by. How can anyone know if there are children in the cars? How can anyone know if the adult passengers consented? These are still unanswered questions in my opinion. While the site is very exciting, are they following their self imposed rules? Are they violating any laws? Who knows.
This site has only 9 videos at the moment. Despite this, kink charges $29.95 per month. With updates once a week this site has potential, but is just too small to justify the price at this time. The content looks good and the videos are advertised as HD with downloadable and streaming options but only for clips. Individual scenes can be purchased as an option, but the price is not clear without buying "kinks" first.
I bought the first PD episode prior to the site becoming active. I've had several memberships to Kink.com sites and have always been impressed with their quality. If you like porn with a harder edge (but without the Max Hardcore kind of abuse), Kink is for you.
One thing that made me uncomfortable about Public Disgrace is that being in public means interaction with people who may not want to see what is going on. Kink is a very responsible company, so I'm sure they take some precautions. It also appears that these scene are all shot in Europe (Eastern Europe). I presume that's because shooting this kind of material in the U.S. would have the morality police tossing them in jail for the rest of their lives.
Public Disgrace is now active and the site looks up to Kink standards again. I''ve just taken out a membership and will post a full review soon.
It's been too long since I've been a member to give a normal review, but I will say that the site has quite a bit of content. I remember from the preview section that it seemed very hit or miss for me, but luckily it turned out pretty good. Very amateur in nature, with some "Girls Gone Wild" type material but also some nice sex activity also. Video of everything for download if I remember right and there is quite a bit of solo masturbation and lesbian stuff.
This one is the latest new Brazzers Network website. By what I saw so far it looks very good but surely needs growth. Surely Brazzers team continues good work and I am starting to believe that by making great websites like this they are trying to make their members ... crazy lol, well I will review it in a few days to give you an idea of whats inside.
Since I've reviewed most of the other Brazzer's Pass sites and don't plan to renew my membership, I'm not sure if I'll end up reviewing this site. However, I did want to mention that it appears at first glance that this site will offer some more naturally endowed girls, which would buck a trend towards fake tits at the network of late. I don't know if it's because girls with natural tits and ass tend to be a little curvier (something I enjoy but I wonder if others don't) that their numbers have diminished of late, but it's nice to see a few who haven't gone under the knife.
