Pros:
* Simple theme (Ordinary Massage turns to sex act)
* Straight Sex,No Toys, Dildos,Lesbian,BGG Acts
* Great Teasing & Seduction for prior to sex acts
* Fairly romantic, erotic themes for most episodes
* Clients aren't pornstars,typical next door types
* Few pornstars here except Mandy,looks very natural
* Few bonus sites which are on similar lines/themes
* HD Video Quality excellent,great clarity,streams
Cons:
* Login problems;rejects users,Support intervention
* No updates since launch,only 10-12 episodes total
* Mandy,Beth episodes sizzle others fizzle,real duds
* Site stale with no major stars to publicize more
* Absolutely no support for FTP & D/L Managers
* Site Navigation Confusing,Cluttered,Not Revised
* Cast remains same for IM & Bonus sites always now
* Performers aren't mainstream,likely European
Bottom Line:
IM probably started out with major expectations & wanted to test other sites like Massage Parlor & Fucked Hard 18 at a time when the massage fetish was coming into its own. For a time like that it wasalright now, the territory is very competitive & well established.Simply put IM's a poor cousin of the other big names in its genre. Except for HD as major defining factor,one can't see a standout scene here or performer as the case may be.
Its difficult to recommend or suggest a site like this as its there are a lot of trade offs but the
basic offering isn't upto the mark. So the verdict
maybe that if you are looking for entertainment & looking for avenues on what to do with your money
then go for it or else stay away

Pros:
- No watermarks on photos or vids.
- Pretty good sized library of bonus DVD's.
- Zip photo downloads.
- No DRM and no daily limit(but it would be impossible to download enough in one day to truly find out)
Cons:
- Incredibly SLOW downloads. Always under 100kbps. This is seriously reason to not join.
- They have a pretty small cast. You'll see the dozen actresses repeated on every site, sometimes with the same combination of males.
- Small library in the exclusive network.
- No more updates. The site has been dead since 2009
- Poor navigation. No search, or model index. Site gets confused when you switch between network sites.
Bottom Line:
I need to reemphasize how slow this network is. TBP and Wittyguy said this site as slow a few years ago when they reviewed it and it has not gotten better. Expect to try to download a nearly 1 GB file at speeds of 45-95 kbps. That means a few hours for each scene.
The scenes are okay and the models are decent. The models are chicks that have done porn before, but they're probably third stringers. I'm not saying they're bad though. They frequently repeat actresses and even combination of stars. That means same guy and girl doing a scene on 3 sites in the network. There are 143 scenes, which is a modest amount for a "network" and they have not updated since 2009.
Photos are 800x1200 with zip downloads. As far as videos they offer two qualities of wmv, along with one in ipod mp4 and quicktime mov plus streaming flash. The videos are 1280x720 wmvs at their best quality. All are full scene and the "short clips" seem to be messed up and incomplete.
Also there are over 200 non-exclusive bonus DVDs, mostly older stuff from smaller studios. Also over 1000 non-exclusive photosets. The bonus stuff rounds the site out a bit, it's nothing you can't get at larger sites like videobox.
I cannot justify giving this site a passing grade at the speeds they offer. If they aren't willing to provide the bandwidth to make the scenes accessible then they should close the site and license the content to people who can distribute it.
Unless you need these scenes and have some crazy zen-like patience, do not join this site.

Pros:
* HD Vids look really good at 1280x720 - just a warning though they're up to 1 GB in size at that resolution for a 30-35 minute video.
* The main actress "Mandy More" is a great star for the show. Even though this site is more about the guys (and yes I know that sounds odd) than the girl, it wouldn't be nearly as interesting if she wasn't a good performer.
* Very realistic presentation. It has been a while since I wondered about the legitimacy of the reality angle on a site, but in this one it seems real. I haven't seen these guys before, and some of them are adequately in over their head. I found myself watching the interview portion as much as the action, which is rare.
* Pics are available in zip files and look good at 1200x800 or so resolution.
* Access to entire network of 5 sites is granted though they didn't particularly interest me.
* Extensive library of non-exclusive content
Cons:
* Some vids on tour haven't been released yet, but they're listed in the "coming soon" area with dates, so there is incentive to keep your membership going if you like the site.
* I would have liked a lower-res wmv version of some of the vids - there are 5 different formats, including Flash, Quicktime, MP4, WMV-low, and WMV-high, but the WMV low versions were still 600 MB+ at times. Minor quibble for sure.
* Download speeds could have been better - I got 200-250 KB/s most of the time.
Bottom Line:
I liked this site a lot. I discovered it a while back and made a mental note that it looked worthy of a join, but then I lost the link. Thankfully I re-discovered it recently and joined up the same day, and I wasn't disappointed. The quality of the pics and vids is top notch, and the content in the episodes was engaging and interesting. If you find Mandy hot, you'll enjoy the action, and if you like your reality porn to be truly realistic, you'll enjoy the rest of the action.
My only caution would be to go in knowing that it's not all fun and games for the guys in these vids. Some fail miserably at their "audition", and while I found it all to be entertaining and fun to watch, some people will certainly be disappointed and uninterested.
This isn't a site for those who like their porn straightforward and predictable. For those people, I would encourage them to check out the 4 other sites in the network, or even the vast amounts of non-exclusive content they offer, which includes 1807 pages of 12 vids apiece as of today, all searchable by studio or performer and all available in 5 formats. However, I would encourage you to check out Wittyguy's review of the network for more comments on those vids, as I didn't really spend much time going through those.
Bottom line - I had a lot of fun here, and if they can keep the content coming, I'll probably be back in the future.

Pros:
+ 5 site network (4 HC, 1 Lez)
+ Good TBP $5, 3 day full access trial
+ Some exclusive content which updates once a week
+ Some HD vids
+ A slew of nonexclusive material (1000's of pic sets and vids covering softcore, HC, lez, IR, etc.)
Cons:
- Painfully slow download speeds
- Navigation and search is poor especially when dealing with nonexclusive material
- Exclusive material quality is only average
- Incomplete model directory and scene tags
Bottom Line:
I find this strange to say but the nonexclusive content is what makes this site, not their original stuff and that ain't saying much. Here's the breakdown:
ORIGINAL CONTENT: 5 sites all link together. Pics come in at 800x1200 and all have zips - pics appear to be HD screen caps and aren't as complete as the vids. Vids come in streaming, 820x480 and 1280x720 HD and include clips and full scenes. The download speeds suck, around 150 kb/sec. The 820 and 1280 sized vids (roughly 700 mb and 1 gig in size) are almost impossible to download due to the length of time it takes. The quality is only average. You get iffy lighting and production but and the girls are teens/20's but only average looking. There is only one update each week between the five sites. Most only have about 12 sets so far.
NONEXCLUSIVE MATERIAL: This was the best part of the site. There are literally 1000's of photos sets and vids from about 15 to 20 production houses. You also get access to 380 DVDS but those are pretty old titles. Three big problems here. First, navigation is a pain. You can only jump 5 pages at most - not cool when dealing with this volume. Second, search is limited. You can search by about 20 categories. Then you can search by tags within categories. Tags and categories and model directory are all incomplete and sometimes mixed up (you get teens in the MILF section, some HC sets don't appear in the HC category, etc.) Also, porn stars who have multiple names require multiple searches - no cross referencing. Third, you don' know what you're getting unto you dig into it. Pic sizes range from 600 to 2500, you can only find out by clicking on pics to see what you can get before you try to zip or view further. Vids are similar, you don't know if it's partial scenes or full scenes and the quality and sizes are all over the board (no HD nonexclusive vids though). Couple this "hunt and peck" search method with the slow speeds and it's a royal pain in the ass.
As a plus, you get a lot of major production stuff (at times it looked like a Twistys or PaulMarkham or LegSex clone site) and you get Devils Film shots and other good stuff. So there is good stuff there but you have to spend a lot of time looking for it although you can search by production house if you want.
If they shelled out some coin for some servers and bandwidth and improved their search and navigation this site could easily score in the 80's. As it exists now, I can't really recommend it. If you do join you get the option of a $10 per month for life discount when you cancel but there's nothing here you can't really see within the trial period unless you plan on downloading a lot ... in which case it may take your lifetime to get it all ;)
