Pros:
Some of the net's most beautiful imagery
Many, many US models you've heard of.
Some files back to 2003 and beyond
Zip files in many sizes for most sets, some up to 3000k.
Many videos now in 720P
Good layout and consistent navigation
Many of the best US models in the industry have their roots here.
Very good variety of models, most of whom have exceptional proportions.
The download process isn't bad if you aren't trying to download every image on the site.
It seems like they may be rescanning older 35mm sets in higher resolution when they re-release them, but I can't tell for sure.
Some content goes back as far as 2003. That's ALOT of images.
No cross selling!
For the price, you can't go wrong. (Part of why I rate them so high)
Cons:
Site seems a bit slow to load compared to others
Recycling of old images cheats number of new releases.
Only 1 release per day and almost ALL of them are re-releases. (Less than 1 new set per week)
Quantity of new releases really seems to be dropping (Quality is good, though).
No original dates on sets so you can't tell if it is old. Chance are very good that it is.
Older videos in 480P or less and with no original dates for the models, you can't tell until you click down.
Bottom Line:
Important bits:
Mostly solo scenes with a few very good girl/girl softcore scenses (good because the girls are usually into each other and not just standing there.)
No boy/girl scenes that I recall.
Very few toys....but a reasonable number of fingers.
Good mix of outdoor and indoor scenes. These guys love sunlight (a very good thing for the images and girls, apparently) so many of the indoor sets are actually set up outdoors.
Nothing hardcore, but if you are the type that likes "unobstructed views", there are a lot of those.
Sorry, but I can't just bullet point this one. There's somehow more to it. As a frame of refgerence, my taste is for well done images.
This site has an ambiance about it that is somehow different from the the other, mostly european softcore sites. One of the fun things is looking at how the girls are transformed from the initial Audtion shoot. When they come in, they are good looking and trim. For the shoots, most are OMFG awesome! Now, it takes a good model to make this formula work. A good recent example of this is Amber Sym. In the audtion shots, she is hot, with a well toned, cheerleader type body. In the photo sets, she is simply ungodly beautiful.
Many models shoot stills well, but are really awkward in videos. The folks at DD (I still want to call it DDG) really know how to shoot video to bring out the grace and beauty in a girl. There are dozens of examples like this.
Another thing this site does is understand what the typical male, um, comes here for. I think the word I would use to describe these types of sets is Inviting. The models are aware of the photographer and use that element to tease or play with the camera a little in a very subtle way. Imagine if a really hot girl said to you "Hey, I'm going to take my clothes off and maybe fool around with myself a little. Stick around and watch if you want because that makes it more interesting for me." It is subtly different from how the European sites do it. "Flirt" sets even have th egirls talking at you...but sometimes less is more. Very good directing on the photography team's part.
Most of the sets include an ample number of really nicely (as in tastefully) done close-ups. And sometimes there is a tiny bit of Astroglide..I guess..in the right place to make things more interesting. It seems somehow more personal...sharing...inviting than the "girl frolicking in the woods" shoots you see elsewhere.
Another subtle thing that makse the experiance nicer is that there is very little cross selling or other advertising going on. This is a freestanding site, so you get what you get. It just seems so much more respectful of my time and privacy to NOT be mentioning that there are also sets of this girl on the blah-blah-blah sister site. (Compared to, say, Met-Art, that accosts you with ads for sister sites.) I guess the reason they don't have more cross-selling is because nobody else does some things the same way that they do. Kudoos for both.
Once a set appears (or re-appears) they are placed into specific categories that you can browse through. Categories include Dreamgirls, XXX Stars, Young and Fresh, Flashback, Interviews, etc. This helps if you are searching for a particular look or Genre, but it appears that they are not producing a lot of new material for many of these categories.
Now that you can tell that I'm clearly enamored with the models and photography, let me tell you a few of the more frustraing things about this site.
It is slooooow, mostly slow for pages to load. Downloads seem to be about average in speed. Not sure what that is about.
As I mentioned above, many of the older sets get recycled, apparently more than once. I don't have a major issue with that as many sites do it, but this site passes them off as new every time they come back around (sometimes multiple times). Fricking QUIT THAT! Introduce them in a different category and include the original dates for the shoots as well as the original dates for the models introduction to the site. Yes, some of the sets are the best they've ever done and deserve to be re-introduced (take a look at Alyssa Lovelace, for example), but re-datestamping them is just plain wrong. It destroys the model timelines and, at best, seems deceptive.
And here's another thing. As I looked back through my 12+ year collection of DDG/DD images, I noticed that a lot of material from the late 1990s and early 2000s is no longer there. Some of it is big-hair and bushy, but a lot of it is completely timeless. You should consider putting more of the images back on the site in the appropiate area so your subscribers can enjoy them.
Ok, bottom line. If you are into softcore, this is absolutely, positively one of the sites to visit as there is over a decade's worth of material. If you were here less than a year ago, there is not much new content, but it might be worth it to visit for the new lower price.

Updated:
12-01-1202:09am (Update History) Reason: Ran into another con.
Pros:
-2000x3000 resolution on latest photo sets
-Around 720 of those photosets are 3000px.
-Around 540 720p videos
-Interview videos
-updates once a day video every 5th update.
-Low price
Cons:
-Older sets 1600x1024 or under.
-Around 1900 of the photosets are 1600px or under.
-Around 500 videos are 420p.
-Videos have music.
-Majority of pictures are in the outdoors with natural lighting which I'm not a fan of but is personal taste
-Video links expire when using download manager. Makes downloading videos exponentially time consuming.
Bottom Line:
Based on the latest 3000px photos, technically the photo sets are well shot and composed. Personally I'm not a fan of the lighting. Most photosets are outdoors and most of the indoor sets have natural lighting from outside through the window. This might be a plus for some but for me it is not my style. I prefer the controlled lighting and indoor scenes.
Based on the latest 720p videos, the videos have a hazy dream sequence look to them. The videos have a music track to them. Both of which are not my style. Aside from that there are interviews with some of the models which are always a plus.
Search is done by broad categories hair color, breast type, shaved/unshaved, styles(wet,girlfriends, backstage, xxx stars etc). You can organize sets by publishing date or rating. There is also a checkbox for hd only so you only see 720p videos.
The models are more playboyesque type of models and they are photographed in that style. If you are looking for this style then this site is worth a try for the price offered. If you are looking for the amateur girl next door style this is not it. Whether or not you like this site depends on what style you like.

Pros:
-High end, glamor style photos of teen and early twenty models.
-Easy login. No captcha.
-Long time before site timeout.
-No DRM.
-Access to live cams.
-Good download speeds. I usually max out my download speed of 1.3MB/sec.
-Easy site navigation. There are a lot of photosets, but it's fairly easy to look through the site to see what you like.
-Each photoset comes in 3 definitions: low, medium, high.
-Download managers work. I use DownThemAll, which works here.
-If you are a member, you can get a discount to other sites in the network through their upgrade option.
-Content is exclusive.
-No watermark on their photos.
-You get a large number of photographers contributing to this site. I think they are
all basically high-end glamor style shoots, with not a large variation in styles, but you get to see how different photographers use this approach.
-The models are clean. Almost no tatoos. Very little piercing.
Cons:
-Cons are basically minor. If you like high-end teen softcore glamor photosets, you will probably like this site.
-No videos. Photosets only.
-A few models have more than one name. So if you want to set all their sets, you need a bit of luck to find them.
-The site advertises itself as using amateur models. I think that's misleading. You get a large number of models who have appeared at different porn sites. I think a better description would be that these are attractive young girls that you would like to see more of.
-You get a model bio for each girl, but the bio is very short, with few details.
-Site advertises "Over 10,000 Breathtaking Beauties". I doubt that. MetArt, which has
been around about 6 more years than Erotic Beauty, advertises 2,730 models, and MetArt
updates about 4-6 photosets per day, compared to 1 per day for Erotic Beauty. So Erotic Beauty might have 1,000 models at the site, or less.
Bottom Line:
Site statistics:
Number of videos: 0
Number of models: hundreds+
The dimensions of the recently posted photosets:
low definition: 680 x 1024 pixels
medium definition: 1361 x 2048 pixels
high definition: 2000 x 3008 pixels or 2832 x 4256 pixels
You have to join each site separately. You can't join one, and automatically get access to another site in the network. But as cjd2004 pointed out, there is an option to join all the sites in the network at once at signup.
Erotic Beauty used to be called Metmodels. I assume they changed the name to further distinguish itself from MetArt, so people won't automatically compare the two sites to see which site offers the better value.
Erotic Beauty is actually like a smaller sister of MetArt: MetArt offers up to 6 new updates per day. Recently they have been offering around 4 updates per day. Almost all the updates are photosets, but they usually offer 1 or 2 new videos per week.
Erotic Beauty offers 1 new photoset per day. No videos at the site.
MetArt has a huge collection of models and photosets (and videos, but the videos basically have little value, because they are almost all boring, in spite of featuring lovely young models in the nude).
Erotic Beauty has a large collection of models and photosets, but much smaller than what MetArt has.
If you haven't been a member of either MetArt or Erotic Beauty, the better value is obviously MetArt, because of the greater amount of content at MetArt. But if you've already seen MetArt, and haven't seen Erotic Beauty, and if you like the MetArt content, then Erotic Beauty is definitely worth a visit, because you will find similar content in the photosets at Erotic Beauty.
Almost all the models are in their teens or early twenties. Most are Causcasian. You have a pick of attractive to lovely or gorgeous girls to look at. This is a high-end teen glamor softcore photo site. It doesn't get much better than this. MetArt, Erotic Beauty, MPL Studios, Femjoy are some of the best in the field.
Was a member approx. 1 month prior to this review.
Pros:
- Good diversity of models; most (if not all) natural
- Plenty of unshaved models (a pro for me, at least)
- Lots of nylons and sheer underwear
- Interesting mix of amateur and glamour styles
- Good value with no regional bias on price
Cons:
- Undated content - no idea if updating (suspect not)
- Pictures fairly low res; videos derisorily so
- Some sets continuations of a previous one
- Some models' sets mixed with others; or some duplicate sets
- Bad lighting may be a turn-off for some
- Quite a few teen models (I know a pro for many!)
- A couple of fetishes which don't appeal
- No zip sets
Bottom Line:
New Nude City is the last of a few sites I've been meaning to join for ages, and finally got round to trying it. It features the work of Richard Kern; one-time underground filmmaker, latterly occasional music video director and more often nude photographer; I'm quite a fan of his photographs, owning a couple of his published books, and so wanted to take a look at his site.
There are approx 170 models here, almost all of them exclusive, amateur girls; I only happened across three I recognised - Joanna Angel, Karlie Montana and a very young Sasha Grey. Roughly 700 photo sets of 20-120 pictures, maybe 50 as an average; and resolution is fairly low at 1400px. No zip sets, but downloading a set with a manager - I use DownThemAll - is very straightforward so I do not penalise the site for that. Sets are not dated, so there's no way to know if the site is being updated - I suspect not since the total picture count on the home page did not seem to change while I was a member; but the material stretches back over ten years; I recognise some from the books I have. The material is only moderately explicit; there are plenty of spread legs, but only a few sets feature fingers or toys being inserted. There are also some girl-girl sets, but most of the content is solo.
The theme of the site - the city - sees the sets split into categories named after New York areas - Soho, Greenwich, Wall street, etc. I apologise to Mr Kern if I'm missing the point here, but this seems entirely a conceit; I couldn't see any commonality within each category and some sets continue a single shoot but in a different category. There is a model index, though - with a brief bio paragraph of each girl, which is interesting - and a more traditional theme index allowing you to search on eg panties, nylons, blondes, etc. There is a very clear divide into two broad themes, though, even though the site doesn't define it that way; it is probably a by-product of Kern's magazine work - photos from which I suspect feature heavily on this site - having, I believe, shot for Barely Legal and Leg Show.
The first theme, then, is younger amateur girls. Normally I prefer older models and there are a number of models here who are just too young - and too young-looking - for my taste. Having said that, they are interesting; we see them not only posing for the camera; but in the kitchen, brushing their teeth, eating or drinking. Combined with the locations - very ordinary apartments, perhaps the models' own (some are quite messy!) and hotel rooms, there is an intimacy that you don't get with more slick material. All of the models look engaged, as if they are having fun - Kern definitely gets the best out of them. Most sets feature clothing of some sort - again, usually prosaic, apart from the fact that (like me) Kern has a fetish for and fixation with panties, especially the sheer kind - you'll see lots here. Sometimes the lighting is not good; but because of the nature of the pictures, it's forgiven, this isn't a sight that you judge on mere technical prowess, and it fits in with the underground/amateur feel.
Then there are the more glamorous sets; featuring girls with a bit more make-up, perhaps a little older, usually a a bit better lit - and focused more on legs, nylons and lingerie, and more pin-up style poses. There are also a few other fetishes in the mix - eg bondage, smoking, peeing; these don't necessarily work for me but are in the minority. Although they are a bit more glam, they retain the same feel as the amateur girls - the girls are still natural, and engaged with the photographer... and still fixated on sheer bras and panties. Granted, some are a bit dated and look like retro magazine shoots - likely because that's what they are - but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The split between these two themes is roughy equal; I saved a similar number of sets in each - and although some models appear in both kinds of set, the majority are either one or the other.
I haven't yet mentioned the videos - the site states 136 available. The theme is similar, although there are some slightly more explicit ones featuring masturbation and toys. I like the feel of them, the way they are shot... but they are let down technically even more than the pictures, being only a couple of minutes long, and just too small - some at approx 640x360, some at 400x300. The graininess of them fits in with the theme of the site... but they really need to be bigger.
This is another tricky one to score; for me it's very much like Ed Fox's Foot Factory - I love the material, it's unique, quirky and appealing; but let down a bit by low resolution pictures and lack of updates. I'll therefore give it the same score; and say it's definitely recommended - but if you do want something a bit different, I'd suggest Juliland first, which wins over mainly in technical quality and update frequency.

Updated:
11-10-1211:25am (Update History) Reason: Added information on Customer Support
Pros:
+Fast download speed
+Lots of models
+Zip files
+1080p Videos (newer ones)
+Great quality images
+Good amount of photo and video sets
+Easy navigation
Cons:
-Some models don't either have a video or photo set
-Some zip files don't work
-Average of 16-30 pics per set
-Lowest image size is 1920 on the long side
-Not much extras
Bottom Line:
I read the latest review on here and decided not to take their advice and try it and I have a very different point of view on it and here is what I have to say.
The site has six sections of models where you can choose from, which are: Playmate, Celebrity, Cybergirl, International, COED and Amateur. You can also choose to look for either Videos, Galleries and Girls plus you can also search for a video or girl. They update two models everyday with a photo set and a video too. The newest photos are 1920 on the long side and 1280 on the short side, and the older photos vary from 1728 (long side) to 1024 (long side) depending on when those sets were released.
As for the support, I had no problem getting through the Live Chat in which I canceled yesterday and I didn't wait over ten minutes. The customer service employee was very fast and helpful on succeeding my request.
Now, if you haven't been on here since the reformation then I'll tell you it's a whole lot better than before and it has a better navigation so you can find the videos or girls you want.
The bottom line is, this is a great site featuring the most beautiful girls in the world showing their goods. Now, I would recommend this site to anyone who is interested in Soft-core pornography. By the way, I've joined lots of sites and this might not be the best, but it is very easy to navigate.
Current Member for less than 1 month (at the time of review).
Pros:
Huge amount of content (over 15,000 sets and 5800 videos)
Video and picture quality is very good (pics go up to 2000x3000, video to 720p)
Active forum where staff interact and seem to listen to requests
Interactive live shows every 2-3 months free for members
Cons:
No universal search box (can only search from certain pages)
Navigation is nowhere near as intuitive as it could/should be
Small bugs pop up in various places (old videos missing thumbnails, code leaking at the bottom of some pages, things generally just not working correctly)
Had trouble cancelling (both the online form and the online chat didn't work, had to call in to cancel)
Bottom Line:
The truth of the matter is that I knew this was a site that I wasn't going to like as much as some other people here for 2 reasons. First, I prefer videos to photos, and I primarily know Twistys as a photo site. Second, I knew that their Twistys Hard section was "relatively new", so I wasn't expecting much boy/girl content. But the PU deal was too good to pass up. And while I was pleasantly surprised about both of those things when I joined, there were enough things I didn't like about the site that it left me disappointed.
For the photo section, it was about as good as I was expecting, which is to say quite excellent. The pictures are all quite large and sharp from the ones I looked at, and come in small, medium, and large sizes, with the large topping out at 2,000 by 3,000 pixels. All scenes have downloadable zip files, and most of them have zips available for multiple resolutions. You can favorite photo sets and photographers, but not individual photos, which slightly surprised me but doesn't seem like that big of a deal. The one thing I will say that disappointed me is that while many of the videos actually do have accompanying photo sets, there's no easy way to go from a photo set to it's corresponding video and vice versa. You have to go to the actresses page and find the photo set released around the same time that looks similar (because they aren't necessarily released the same day).
Now to the video. The technical aspects of the videos were about what I expect from a high-level site in this day and age. There were options for standard and high definition up to 720p. No 1080p was surprising, but not a big deal to me as I usually don't download that size anyway. There's over 5800 videos, but the vast majority of them are solo videos, with only 370 videos listed as lesbian and only 240+ in the Twistys Hard category. Which led me to a nice surprise, which is that the Twistys Hard videos weren't the only boy/girl videos they have on their site. It looks like at some point very early in their existence they purchased a bunch of late 90s/early 00s video content from somewhere and put it up, which included another 900+ boy/girl videos. While I suspect that many of these videos aren't exclusive, it was the first time I'd seen most of these movies, and since the content was so old, it included many women who I didn't have any scenes of. I was able to find videos of women who I hadn't thought about in years, and videos of women who are MILFs now from back when they were still young and fresh. The videos aren't of particularly great resolution, which is to be expected, but the fact that they were there at all was probably my favorite part of my membership.
Finding and browsing all that content, though, was easily my least favorite part of the whole thing, because they didn't make it easy at all. The basic problem, in my opinion, is that the site seems to be designed as a photo site that also has some videos. And if that weren't obvious enough from some of the little issues I ran into (for example, the male talent isn't listed on the page for the scene at all, even though they have that info stored with the scene and it can be seen when you add it to your favorites, even after you do that, there's absolutely no way to go through scenes by male talent), it became clear as day when I tried to search through the videos. Because if you do, the search box says "Photo Options" instead of "Video Options". It actually took me 2 days to realize that that was the video search box and that I wasn't being taken to the wrong page. And that is far from the only bug that I found.
Speaking of which, this is the first network I've ever joined that doesn't have a universal search box on every page. The search they do have is very good and thorough (you can search models by things like eye and hair color or country of birth, and you can search by things like wardrobe and location). But you can only do it from a couple pages (the model, photo, videos, and Twistys Hard index pages, to be specific). If you're anywhere else on the site, you have to go back to one of those 4 pages to search. Which just seems like an unnecessarily large pain. It also seems counter intuitive that while they have a space for your profile on every page, you have to actually visit your profile to find a link to see things you've favorited. They could have just added those links to the space they've reserved on every page.
One last thing that left a bad taste in my mouth is that when I tried to cancel, the website wouldn't let me. Their form wouldn't work, and when I tried to do the online chat, I never got a response. I ended up calling their customer support line and that worked fine, but it never should have gotten that far.
So, in the end, while there was a good amount of good content here, it was just so much of a hassle to go through that content that I can't see myself being a member of this site for more than a month or two at a time.

Current Member for less than 1 month (at the time of review).
Pros:
Independent biller, choose from Epoch or Segpay with no regional pricing.
Exclusive content
A new update added every other day. In the last month 11 new photo sets and 5 new videos which is typical of most months.
Photos are available in 3 different sizes, small 683 x 1024, medium 1668 x 2500 and original which varies and can be anything from 2136 x 3216 up to 4912 x 7360.
Zip downloads are available in each size.
Photo set cover included in each zip and set name included in file name.
Most videos are in 1280 x 720 hd in both avi and wmv format. The latest wmv updates play at 10000 kbps. The videos also have the option to be downloaded in 1 minute clips or streamed online.
Lots of information provided, model stats and bios, content date stamped, all file sizes shown and run times listed for videos.
Model ratings and user comments allowed.
Excellent browse and search options.
Cons:
Normally I’d list a bonus site as a pro but the Teen Art Club bonus site and bonus Amour GF content adds little value to the site and even detracts from the rest of the high quality content IMO.
Their online flash based photo slideshow viewer is the worst I’ve seen although it’s not something I ever use.
An annoying captcha at login, a line of 5 numbers that rotate in and out of view, first time I’ve seen that.
Every video has the file name “full” so will need to rename everything yourself.
No ethnic diversity amongst the models
Some may consider the site too softcore if you want more than just naked girls posing.
Most of the above cons were not really much of an issue for me personally; the single most irritating thing about the whole site for me was one aspect of the navigation in that hitting the back button didn’t always take you back to the page you came from.
Bottom Line:
Amour Angels is a softcore teen glamour site featuring a fine collection of 562 models and the work of around 90 different photographers. The site has been online since August 2006 and has built up a collection of 999 photo sets and 253 videos to date. The models here nearly all come from either Russia or The Ukraine and all but a tiny handful; are in the 18 to 21 age range. The model collection is not really very diverse; most are slender with small to medium breasts. Using the excellent search engine I established that 90% of the models have a B cup bra size or smaller so if you like your women with a fuller figure you will have fairly slim pickings here
The site is well laid out with plenty of navigation options; you can browse all updates via the year and month listings with separate sections provided for videos, photos, a model index and a photographer index. The main problem I had with the navigation as mentioned in the cons was that whatever section I was browsing after clicking on a model/photo set/video when I hit the back button to return to the page I was on before it would constantly dump me back on page 1 again and I would have to constantly navigate back to where I was. Eventually I got into the habit of “right click open link in new tab/window” to avoid losing my place I tried the site with Chrome to check if it was just a problem with IE but still the same problem exsisted.
They also have an excellent search engine allowing you to search models by criteria such as age, eye and hair colours, country and bra size. You can also search the photo and video sets by many different indoor and outdoor locations. Same problem again with the navigation though; click on a set or model in your search results then hit the back button and your search results have disappeared.
The photo sets themselves feature mostly solo girls often starting out either clothed or partially clothed and showing off their naked bodies. Many of the sets feature full explicit nudity with plenty of open leg and up close pussy shots however you won’t find any masturbation or toy use going on here. There are also some 2 and 3 girl sets/scenes that feature some mild simulated lesbian kissing and touching. There’s more or less a 50/50 split between indoor and outdoor locations. One slight negative was that I often found models that had two different photo updates that are clearly from the same photo shoot, i.e. same location and outfit
I much prefer photos and haven’t spent an awful lot of time browsing the videos. I quite enjoyed seeing some of my favourite models like Sunna, Ingret and Anna with the amazing F cup breasts come to life in the videos but the videos actually go on a bit too long for me and I tend to lose interest after about 5 minutes. Take the video of Alya titled “Spring Love” for example, there’s only so long a girl lying on a bed rubbing a tulip over her body can hold my attention and that video goes on for 28 minutes. Most videos probably average 10-15 minutes though and all the ones I’ve watched so far contain background music which I actually prefer to the dead silent ones I’ve come across in several recent subscriptions.
Regarding the bonus content the section titled “Amour GF” is just 15 galleries of 2-10 pictures each and the bonus site Teen Art Club has another 57 photo galleries with maximum resolution of 682 x 1024 and hasn’t updated since 2007.
Overall a fine site for lovers of softcore teen erotica, I just wish they’d fine tune the navigation by fixing the back button.

-Has a great search feature.
-Low cost for premium content
Cons:
-Some older sets and videos are poor quality but these date back to 2003 so I don't hold that against them.
-Not a fan of implants and some models have them but that is just personal preference.
Bottom Line:
Just on price alone and the content it offers I would definitely recommend this site.

Pros:
-most beautiful women on the net
-huge selection of models
-not very repetitive
-tons of models ive never seen before
-updated every weekday
-tons of sets
-zip files
Cons:
-should be only $10 per month
Bottom Line:
having read other reviews and the tbp review, i knew going in what kind of site it was. no vids, tasteful nudes, older stuff lower resolution. that out of the way, this is best site on the internet other then 21sextury (tho complete opposite site). the models are amazing, spread out enough that its not the same girl 2 weeks in a row. every morning i wake up and check out a new exciting beautiful girl (other then my own). im on my 3rd month and rarely do more then 1 month memberships. i do look forward to seeing the goddessnudes site that show a bit more

Pros:
+Exclusive content
+ Exceptionably beautiful models
+ Over 600 models with 1000 plus galleries and over a thousand videos
+ Very few tattoos. Seemingly most or all models have natural breasts
+ purchase includes six additional sites. Models are mixed into two scrolling columns. Simply click on link
+ Videos are in three formats. The HD video selections produces extraordinary quantity -- playing at 4000k and up to 1920x1080
+ H-RES JPG 100kb photos.
+ membership includes download mgr.
+ Zips at 10 MB,
+ video=WMV HD. Downloads are lighting fast.
+ Downloads available also with VLC player.
+ Forum for those who want to use it and promotions toutes of chat with the models.
+Models are almost all white and from age 18 to 30. All appear to be simply flawless.
Cons:
+ Nagging problems initially getting into the site (password, etc.)
+ Unable to bring up photos in full screen mode
+ Because I didn’t check this site out at our Best Porn, I got myself into a choice that I couldn’t be more sorry of … that being a site primarily made up of still photo shoots.
+ Videos are short. Four minutes or less. Photo sets basically feature less than twenty pictures.
+ Although I favor softcore over the real hard stuff, this fare goes way over the top with “soft.” Eroticism is as scarce as hen-teeth.
+ Indeed, This outfit is blatantly starving for titillation, despite the abundance of glamour and exquisite bodies
+ Each folder representing a model is made up of three to five photo sets, including videos numbering around four but usually three or less, with always one consisting wholly of an interview.
+ Small watermarks on pictures
+ Updates are less than spectacular.
+ check boxes are cleverly placed everywhere to nail you into joining additional stuff.
Bottom Line:
If you opt to sink your money into this turkey, be advised to check with our Best Porn for discounts. I learned the hard way by going elsewhere for what I thought a good deal…..Ha!
Be sure to cross all your T's and dot your I's after your credit card dispenses a chunck of your hard-earned molla into their coffers, cuz obtaining credentials to jus' smoothly slide into this harum of beauties might surprise you like it did me: Like finding your excited trip unexpectedly blocking entry at the door.
As stated: This site has some drop-dead-good-looking’ gals. But don’t expect too much motion on their movin’ parts. There’s patently a grave waste looming here that screams out that playboygirls aren’t giving us what they’re capable of. You’re jus’ sittin’ there salivating, waiting for those heavenly bodies to get your motor revved up.....but don't expect it to get beyond an idle. If they’d only let loose!
Of course, if your thing is eye-poppin’ artfully done photography, then this may be your bag.
Howsomever, I can’t recommend this site; Not even a little bit. Not Even with PU’s current, tempting discount. Jus' think of it somewhat as harddrive clutter.
Of course I could be wrong. This kind of eye candy jus' might vibrate your taste buds.
But for me, I wish I'd did some homework before steppin' into this cow pie.

Pros:
Obviously a very professionally run site. Nothing to complain about the nuts and bolts
Cons:
One man's meat is another man's poison. This is undoubtedly true but all men know a beautiful woman when they see one and they are going to see very few of them on this website. I have never seen so many average-looking females thrown together. Most are plain, many are almost ugly and – what is worse – few are genuinely sexy. The whole set-up is more reminiscent of nudism in the 1960s than modern erotica or porn. It beats me why anyone should want to see these plain janes without their clothes on.
Bottom Line:
The models are neither beautiful nor sexy. Many look so incredibly softcore that it is doubtful that they would know what to do with a penis if they ever came across one.

Pros:
* Very low price
* Good range of models
* Small galleries
* Great, atmospheric photography
Cons:
* Infrequent updates
* Small collection
* No zip sets
* Small galleries
* Fairly tame, and little tease or lingerie
* Regional pricing
Bottom Line:
Ethernudes has been on my radar for a while, and I finally got round to joining for the bargain price of $5 (or ostensibly a little more - regional pricing kicks in even at this level :|). It's the nude photo site of photographer Olivier re Rycke, so there is a consistent style and quality of work here that you get from a single photographer site.
It's a photo-only site with currently 116 galleries; seemingly about one new one added per month (just one while I was a member). Picture sets are anywhere between around 5 and 50 pictures at 3K size, with perhaps 30 being the average, and more recent sets are larger. They are presented with a stock gallery package (coppermine in this case) so not really any fancy features - notably zip sets are nowhere to be found but it's extremely trivial to grab the set with a DM so I don't take marks off for that.
I've noted the small galleries as both a plus and a minus since although most folk would feel hard-done-by, I like smaller sets; by subscribing to a site, we are buying into the vision of the photographer and part of that vision is knowing what to get rid of! 200+ picture sets bore me, it's hard to know where to stop; 20 well-chosen pictures are better every time, as long as the photographer has the skill to take and choose the best ones. (Stagg Street and Juliland are other sites which are benefit from ruthless editing.)
And in this case, he does - the photography here is excellent. It's not particularly explicit, about the same or even less than you might see at Met Art; but with somehow more depth, atmosphere than what I found at MA. The locations - both indoor and out - and framing are good, and different; and the colours are really nice - they seem a bit processed, but it's done to set the mood, eg to give it a subtle vintage tint, rather than interfere with the models.
The choice of whom is also very good - European models from 19-30 rather than just the 18-21s on many nude sites - including some familiar girls such as Ariel, Suzie Carina and Melisa but most I suspect are exclusive here - but all stunning and natural. And although it's perhaps a bit too art-nude-y for my taste (I'd prefer just a little more undressing/tease/sleaze) - the photographer gets the best out of all the models and they somehow just seem sexier, more relaxed, more intimate than they do elsewhere.
The fact that the site is so small is balanced by the price, I feel - and although it's left me wanting something a bit more explicit again, I still enjoyed the evocative models and locations. Definitely recommended to anyone who likes Met Art, Femjoy etc; you'll get through the small collection in no time, but I also think you'll get a taste of what is missing from the bigger sites.

Pros:
1. Great content
2. Great variety
Cons:
It was the most work I’ve ever done, to see a naked lady.
Thumbnails, a critical part of the selection process, were non-existent. On the phone with their tech support, we resolved the problem by clearing the history file. That only worked if I cleared all my cookies. Hundreds of cookies that identified me to websites I frequent. Stored passwords, all deleted. This must be done 10 to 15 times a day to view thumbnails. In order to remain on the Twistys site, I am prompted for a password sometimes every 5 to 7 minutes, each time having to enter the password that has been deleted in order to see thumbnails, and a capcha, many of which cannot be deciphered. I often then receive a message that I am already logged on.
Activating the back button is a crap shoot. I will activate a download of a lady I’ve found and liked and hit the back button to see more of her. I am taken to another quadrant of the site and have to navigate to the desired photoset, usually requiring logging on once more.
Bottom Line:
There was not enough room in the above box to finish my list of complaints
Was a member approx. 3 months prior to this review.
Pros:
Number of movies 400+ Average length 20 min.
No DRM Protection
No Download Limits
Video format :
WMV (1280x720)
WMV (852x480)
MP4 (720x405)
And QT Flash,Ipod files
Photos
Pic sets About 500 ( stunning quality.
Cons:
Clones Type Website.
I found slow download at peak not bad.
Videos were good but not great.
Bottom Line:
The site is and amazing experience. The quality is very very good and the photography is outstanding.
Toads First Impressions:
the site is very pretty and nice to look at, just like many many sites I have viewed the last several years. The site is easily navigated and information readily accessed, However the site looks like it was cloned at birth to many other site formats.
I think the quality is amazing and photography has great detail. I saw similarities to other sites like XART and DDGirls. Maybe even Twistys.
Video is good but photo as definitely were they are experts at .
Toads take:
I have needed to do several reviews and went out in search of good quality photo's.
Since peering through my neighbors window with my digital camera was no longer and option ( since that incident lol ) I joined this site. I am often very hard on sites that look like others,
this site is truly a great site and managed well. It just tends to look like the same ones I joined before. But the content is masterfully done in my opinion. I don't think you can go wrong and at about 20.00 a month you get allot for the money and the quality is there, maybe more sites have more content but this site had quality.

Pros:
This is the second best site in the Met-Art network behind Met-Art itself. Very large volume of high quality images of truly beautiful women in natural indoor and outdoor settings. See details below.
Cons:
Nothing much in the way of cons as long as you remember it is a nude modelling site. No hardcore here!
Bottom Line:
This site rates up there with the best nude photography sites on the Internet. Tons of photo sets (not much video, though), many, many different models of all shapes and sizes. The collection dates all the way back to 2004 and even the stuff from back then is top notch. And many of the models you know now were on this site before they were anywhere else...although sometimes with different names. With 10 YEARS of stuff, it is a lot of fun looking. (At least 1 new set a day, 50 images per set, that's 3600+ sets and 180,000 imaegs!)
Navigation is good for a site this large. You can search by model or rating or month. Images appear in the same tab, though, so remember to go back rather than close (I wish they would make this more consistent across the Met-Art network..)
Small, medium and large zip files are available for every set since 2004 (although "large" wasn't that large in 2004)
The girls all appear to be comfortable with the photograper. There is a really good mix of full body and close up shots here and, unlike many similar sites, most of the girls are not shy and don't mind, um, showing us the money.
There is a new set every day. Very few of them are continuations of earlier sets and there does not seem to be any common location where the majority of shoots are done. There is a wide variety of photographers and they all have slightly different styles, locations and models. Once in a great while, they will release a much older set, but unlike some other sites, I don't think they are re-releasing anything. For example, a set came out earlier this year of Marketa when she was relatively young. The set may have been 8 years old, but it had never been released anywhere before as far as I could tell. Contrast this with DDG or Earl Miller, who fairly consistently re-release older stuff.
All sets come in 3 sizes ranging from small to extra-large but the size depends on the age of the set. Recent images are 6000x4000 or so, large enough to be lifesize if printed out at 72dpi. And most images actually look good at that kind of resolution.
Now, if you are looking for ANYTHING other than straight images of unbelieveably beautiful girls, then this might not be the site for you. There are a very few lightweight girl/girl scenes, but there are no sex scenes, no insertions, very little masturbation, no true sex on this site. There may be a few unusual sets from prior years (maybe a girl with her hands tied or something), but this is a 99.9% nude girls site.
I got in this time on a discount because I was a member of Met-Art. Once in Met-Art, it was just $12.50 to join additional sites in the network. Well, I'm dropping the lesser met-art network sites but will keep this one for at least another month or two.
As I mentioned above, overall this is one of the best nude photography sites on the net. Every time I log in, I find myself surfing the site for an hour or more. I don't think I've ever been dissapointed with this site...and for me...that says a lot.

Pros:
Erotic Beauty, formerly MetModels, leans a little more toward old-style softcore nude photos in natural settings. The models are generally not mainstream, so you find a few that are very interesting and different. The site is billed as "Naturally Beautiful amatuer nudes" which probably says it better than I can.
Cons:
Hmm. Can't quite put my finger on it.... a little slow, maybe. Nothing major wrong.
Bottom Line:
This is a really good amatuer nude site. It is good because the photography is good, the models are generally attractive and typically squeeky clean (can't tell if they are photoshopped..), and there is a tremendous quantity of stuff going back to 2005. And remember, this USED to be the site where the Met-Art network put its most beautiful models so even the old stuff is pretty good. (The new stuff is good, too!) Many of the sets are outside.
Navigation is average or a little better than average. You can search by model, most popular, date, etc. Images do not open in a new window, so you have to remember that if you are used to some of the other sites like this.
There is a HUGE variety of models here, all apparently european. They are also all natural. I don't recall a single enhancement. And the models mostly seemed to be enjoying themselves, or at least comfortable with the set and the photographer.
I got into the site this time on a $12.50 special because I was already a member of Met-Art.
Absolutely worth a visit, especially if you like natural nude photography.

Pros:
High quality video and photos of sex scenes and solo scenes. Many Met-Art models but less softcore.
Cons:
Not enough content, although it is improving. Navigation is not consistent with Met-Art.
Bottom Line:
This is basically all the stuff that the photogrpahers wanted to shoot for Met-Art, but the relatively softcore nature of that site prevented them from publishing it. Or...to put it another way...it is a way for Met-Art to expand thier network and make more money without having to use anything more than ask the assets they already have to have sex, which many of them do on other sites anyway.
The emphasis is on glamorous sex scenes but there are a lot of solo acts and decent photo sets with all kinds of toys. The girls, of course, are awesome....as usual for this network. The only problem is that there still is nowhere near enough material.
Navigation is fine for a small site, but when it gets big, they will need to switch over to the same system they use for Met-Art. For this site, you have to page forward and back to get anywhere quickly, or you can follow the "back to gallery" links...which ever is your preference. I have accidently left the site many times because I thought I was on Met-Art.
The cross-advertising is still very frustrating.
They cross-advertised based on models and photographers, so at the bottom of a page, you will see a link back to Met-Art or one of the other sites in the network (all charging separately).
I was fortunate enough to see this site for $12.50 because I was already a member at Met-Art. Look for bundle packages and consider doing one $12.50 secondary Met-Art site at a time because there just isn't enough content here for you to keep all four $12.50 sites for long.
Overall, this is a pretty good site, especially if you get in on a package deal. But it won't be a great site until they get a lot more content.
You see a nice girl on one site, there is a picture of her from another set at teh bottomfg
Was a member approx. 3 months prior to this review.
Pros:
+ Strikingly beautiful models. (Tend to be young/natural looking)
+ Sex scenes are well produced/shot.
+ 3 content updates a week. (Mix of video/galleries)
+ Good monthly rate. $19.95 without a TBP discount.
+ Content appears to be exclusive.
+ A large portion of the video content is hardcore, boy/girl.
+ Good mix of Euro and American girls.
Cons:
- videos start with music and credits rolling before the action starts.
- Struggled with using the download manager on this site.
- While the models are beautiful, they tend to have favorite girls that show up frequently in the updates. A little more variety would be nice.
Bottom Line:
I enjoy the young, natural models and have become bored with the handful of European sites using the same models, doing the same old sex scenes. X-Art is a refreshing change.
X-Art delivers on their tag line "Beautiful erotica". Many sites choose beautiful models, as X-Art has done. They take it a step further using creativity in setting up sensual sex scenes and know how to use the camera to accentuate the models and the sex.
If you prefer rougher sex (slapping, spitting, anal, etc.) you may be a little bored with this site. Aside from that, the sex is definitely not softcore. Most of the boy/girl sex scenes have some combination of blowjobs, handjobs and intercourse from every angle. I'd say about two out of every three videos is boy/girl. The rest are a combination of lesbian and solo.
The Web site is intuitive and easy to navigate. Videos can be sorted by update or most popular. The models can be sorted by popularity, newest model or model age. There doesn't seem to be a way to sort/filter picture galleries accept seeing them as they come in on the update tab or by finding a model and accessing the gallery through her page.

Pros:
- Met Art going hardcore, kind of, maybe.
- As would be expected, the pictures are excellent quality, but there are some sets with excessive blur, also happens on Met sometimes.
- The videos are romantic takes on sex. Not for sure if I should have put that in the cons or pros. Will further in BL.
- The models are all attractive and especially so if you like the slimmer build models.
- Very good DL speeds.
- Original themed series scenes.
- Navigation is good, but I'm going to guess it's just because the site isn't that big yet. I expect this navigation will be a real pain in the ass in a few years.
- Videos and picture sets combined have at least 1 update per day on average.
Cons:
- Careful what you wish for. Normal sex doesn't always translate into erotic.
- I honestly have trouble keeping up with, figuring out the different series'. Will further this too in BL.
- 2 months as a member and I will be keeping 4 videos and all of the photo sets. Pretty much the same pattern I have on Met-Art.
- Model variety would be a major plus. Pretty, white and slim is good, but it sure gets repetitive.
- Passion is "eh" believable.
Bottom Line:
I was one of the ones with very high expectations on this site and was lucky enough to get the first promo they sent out which gave 2 months access for $19.95. I don't feel ripped off at all, but as my previous comment said, I don't get it.
It's probably the last thing Met-Art wants to hear, but I prefer the photos to videos on Sex Art. I'm going to try and break the site down into sections so it's clear.
They have your basic video scenes. Just like Met, they give each scene a name so this can be a bit confusing when you add in the scenes that make up a series.
There are 60 of these as of 9/14/2012. The types of scenes:
Boy/girl: 18
Girl/girl or all girl: 23
The rest are solo.
My first problem. As you can see, the boy/girl group is the smallest of the three. When I hear hardcore, I still consider it boy/girl. Second problem, some of this goes into a realm of artsy that I couldn't imagine being interested in. The two examples off the top of my head, a man and woman full body-painted like tigers, having sex in a jungle themed room. One with the women in "chrome" from head to toe. You lost me at nude sex covered with paint and chrome.
Second group of scenes are in the series "Girls Love Sex". And just to keep it under some theme, there are 20 scenes in each season. Yep seasons. Like a television show. They have finished season 1 and 2, but season 3 hasn't started. So there are 40 scenes here. Now don't expect these to be much about sex. It's different models talking, some teasing and very light masturbation. Most of these scenes are less than 5 minutes.
Problem here? Watched 10 and swore to never download one again. These remind me more of Behind the Scenes sets on other sites, just repackaged as it might be porn.
Should be noted, August season is listed as "coming soon August". It's mid-September and there's nothing new.
Third group is Kamikaze Love, which is a full movie or a continuous series, hell I don't know, but I do know it says "New episodes every week" but there hasn't been a new scene added in this section since July.
This is a problem to me because I've got two sections of scenes that aren't updating, so I don't know if they just tanked the ideas or what. Either way the Girls Love Sex and Kamikaze Love are both disappointing to me.
So back to the main section of scenes. These scenes are okay. If you like the softer hardcore, you might be into these, but it's all a little too lovey dovey for my taste in porn. I'm all for passion and cutting back on the abusive scenes, but most of this just jumped to the opposite pole of the abusive porn.
The pictures, just like with Met-Art, are the best part. You get three sizes of zips to choose from. I'm basing these numbers off the newest photo set added, 1024x683 (small) 2048x1365 (medium) and 5616x3714 (large).
The videos are HD with decent bitrate and are relatively short in duration, so the files at least aren't huge. The ones I have watched are nice and clear.
It just seems to be trying to be too many different things. Like the old saying, jack of all trades, master of none. I thought for sure there was going to be something kinky in the Girls Love Sex series since some of the titles go into bondage subjects, but it was just the model talking about bondage.
I was expecting something groundbreaking, but I hate saying this, two women or three women being passionate with each other isn't new. The top Euro sites (21Sextury, DDF, Viv Thomas, Sapphic Erotica) have been filming passionate girl/girl scenes and solo scenes for years. This leaves Sex Art with less than 20 of the more rare, but not unheard of passionate boy/girl scenes. These scenes make up 1/5 of their current total videos. Is it possible that Met overhyped this site and built too high of expectations? Sure.
I have 4 close female friends, who are open to porn, but they say they despise the very hardcore scenes on many sites. After watching a few of the scenes from Sex Art, they all, not one, but all four said something to the effect of "It's too soft". I was just making sure I wasn't being a pig. A few of the scenes are really good.
I have no idea why the solo scenes are on here. The models on here aren't noted as top solo models, though Malena Morgan does a good job in her scenes. I don't know, maybe they should consider older female models? I don't remember 18-22 year old girls being very sensual. I also think they could work on the male talent. The most recent male is so effeminate, I had to look at the pictures to make sure it wasn't another girl/girl scene. You're not reinventing the wheel by having obviously sensitive, passionate people have sensitive, passionate sex.
I'll try it again in a year or two and give the 80 as a benefit of the doubt since it's Met, but also notice the numbers, the amount of no longer updating sections and decide if the photos and small amount of boy/girl scenes are enough to warrant a subscription.

Pros:
- Many very attractive models
- Sensual hardcore scenes and solo
- Mix of European and US models
- Great photography and videography
- Good update schedule - 3 per week
- Login doesn't time out
- Material improving in terms of quality and creativity
Cons:
- $=£ regional pricing
- Short on ethnic diversity
- Likewise for ages - most models are very young
- A few anal scenes, not really my thing
- Likewise for group
- Basic browsing/searching facilities
- Could do with a just little more tease
- Arguably a bit formulaic
- Not all videos and photosets correspond
Bottom Line:
I've never really been much into hardcore; but following an enjoyable join at Joymii, this new-fangled artcore genre is growing on me (something is growing, anyway) - although a bit idealised, I like the portrayal of sharing sex between couples - and taken with a pinch of salt, I find it very arousing.
So I figured I'd take advantage of a good offer I received and try it out.... speaking of which, I'll get the main negative out of the way. This seems to have joined the ranks of sites who think that $1=£1; so the price for those of us in the UK is about 60% higher. I'm skirting over this since the offer I received seemed to work in $, but UK/Euro users may want to try joining via eg Tunnelbear.
The basic stats of the site:
* Approx 150 models
* Approx 300 photo sets, dating back to 2008, approx 60 shots in each, in zips, up to 4K
* Approx 200 videos, from 2009, approx 10-15 mins, in combinations of WMV/MPEG/MOV, up to 1080
The look of the site is clean and modern, but the navigation is fairly basic; there is a model index; then just a list of updates, either all in one page, just all videos, or browsing all updates by theme: GB/GG/Group/Solo. They have enough material here to invest in a bit more ease of use; but it's nothing to complain too much about. Clicking into each gallery allows you to rate and comment on the gallery, which is a nice touch - although there are plenty of daft ones there.
The sites's tagline - and the theme - is Beautiful erotica, which I guess sums it up; hardcore sex, but more tender, realistic and creatively/artfully shot than regular porn sites. Actually, looking at the earlier material, they seem to have started out largely with solo photoshoots - I found them a bit clinical and dull, but they have got into their stride - it's good to see a site where the material is getting better as opposed to going downhill like so many.
It's very, very similar to Joymii - I think Joymii started afterwards so I suspect it borrowed heavily from X-Art - imitation and flattery, etc. It is therefore very easy to compare the two; so I'll expand on a few differences/similarities:
* Models: both sites have a mix of US and European models; many popular girls appear there, and there is large overlap between the two. But X-Art focuses more on the 18-21 range; I prefer a slightly broader range, but either way they are all stunning.
* The photography and videography in both are without fault. However, I find a little more creativeness in Joymii's camera angles, colour and sets; X-Art's sets are a bit over-idealised, tropical cabanas and the like. OTOH, some recent videos at X-Art have a bit more of a story - although there's no dialog, they have lent it a very cinematic feel, which is interesting and adds to the atmosphere. In particularly a couple of voyeuristic scenes which - with the subjects implied consent/collusion, is very exciting - more of this please!
* Each site has a fairly similar split of solo, girl/girl and girl/boy material; all of which works for me, although I'm more interested in the actual sex scenes here. X-Art goes a bit further with some group sex scenes and also some anal; neither of which really work for me.
* Joymii has the better site design (over-AJAXing it notwithstanding); I also like the fact that all updates are paired - one photo set and one video per scene. Many videos on X-Art don't have matching sets.
* Both sites could do with just a bit more of an element of tease. The clothes come off just a bit too quickly, and whereas I can understand they don't want to feature girls dolled up in tawdry lingerie, some more undressing wouldn't go amiss.
Overall, this is a great site; and although possibly one of the originals, it is good that other sites in the genre - as listed in Elephant's post on the forum - are keeping it on it's toes - some of the newer material there has very high production values to keep them in the running. I slightly preferred Joymii, but purely as a matter of personal taste; so I'll score this only slightly lower - but it loses another point or two for heavily biased regional pricing!

Pros:
-very attractive euro ladies
-decent variety of hardcore, softcore, and lesbian material
-videos are good quality, most up to full HD
-photos are of technically high quality, maximum resolution is 5600 long end, also available in 1000, 2000, and 4000 on most sets.
-multiple video download options, most have 1080p wmv and 1080, 720, 480 and 360 mp4. I typically downloaded the 720p video, as it was good enough for me (720p mp4 is about 3000 kbps and reasonably crisp).
-zip downloads of photosets, custom zips available
-download managers work, I used DTA
-download speeds are good, maxed my 15 Mb connection
-login timeouts are long, I don’t recall ever timing out
-decent price now, at $19.99
-respectable biller, I had ccbill
-updates with decent frequency, about 7 per week, the current photoset to video ratio on the site is 1.8:1, seems typical based on recent history
Cons:
-smallish site, 142 videos and 252 photos at time of review. 47 total models.
-no bonus material
-little variety in model type, model ethnicity, the vast majority of the models are of the thin or athletic body types, and almost all are white. Not a good site to join if you are looking for curvier models, or a good mix of model ethnicities.
Bottom Line:
Overall I think this is a very good site. I like the variety of hardcore and softcore, the camerawork on the videos is generally acceptable, although not the best. The material is pretty typical of euro sites these days, although production values are probably slightly higher, average model quality is certainly better, and there appears to be some attempt to make the scenes slightly more ‘erotic’. Like many euro sites, the main drawback is the focus is almost always on young, skinny, white girls. This is mostly fine with me, although I wouldn’t mind a little more variety from the site. If you are a fan of large breasts, this is definitely not the site for you, nor is it likely a good site for you if you prefer models with more curves.
It would be nice if this site were merged with the other Deisel media sties, as it uses the exact same interface, pretty much all of the same models, I am not really sure why it isn’t just a part of the network. But I guess it is intended to be a standalone competitor to the likes of orgasms.xxx and x-art, as it certainly has similar themes. The breakdown of material (for videos) is 48 hardcore (11 anal), 31 lesbian, and the remaining 63 videos a mix of softcore and midcore, mostly midcore (toy use and masturbation). These ratios look about the same for photosets.
I enjoyed this site more than I expected to, I figured it would more or less be a clone of sorts of the other Deisel sites that for some reason was split of as a standalone. However, it is a bit more unique, I suppose, than the other Deisel sites. The model quality is definitely top notch (if you are into the skinny athletic girls), and the material has a bit more erotic flair. There isn’t any of that annoying self-shot or POV stuff that appears on many of the other Deisel sites.
Generally, I think it is an excellent site if this is the type of material that you are interested in. It has a softer edge than most euro sites, and I definitely appreciate this style of material. I have grown very tired of gonzo-style sites. The main drawbacks being that it is a newer site, and thus a bit on the small side, and one should not expect a lot of diversity from this site (nor any of the Deisel sites).

Pros:
- Unbelievable hot models
- Great use of light in films, awesome and stunning
- Great download option and now in 1920 x 1080
- Awesome group scenes, very unique and fresh
- Photo quality is stunning 8 times out of 10
- Scenes now are just right length (they were too short)
- Nice clothes especially nice white panties seen often
- Great at hiding tattoos
Cons:
- Some earlier films are very short
- Some earlier films have music all the way through
- Too many cum shots on the back, not my cup of tea
- Not many anal scenes
- Some scenes not 1920 x 1080
- Some girls only have photos which is frustrating for a video fan
- Search options could be better
Bottom Line:
Is it perfect, well no site is, did I enjoy it (or am I enjoying it as I've only been a member for a week), hell yeah this site has lots going for it and in a couple of years I think will be truly awesome, especially if they get to 5 or 7 updates a week. Currently though it's not bad with 3 updates a week.
I would of liked more anal scenes as shot in this beautiful style they look truly hot, but anyway I get not everyone likes anal scenes. cause the girls are so hot here seeing them is enough. I really loved their group sex scenes and would of loved more of them that's for sure, the one in the stretched limo with 4 girls and a guy was breathtaking and very unique.
Thing that sets this site apart from most sites is they can make the most beautiful movies, crystal clear closeups of faces, loads of angelic white light, coloured to perfection, don't ask me how they do it but it looks divine and really professionally done.
I liked and loved lots of the photos too, but some not so good, its hard to shoot people having sex on a camera though and you can't always capture the action in the shot without it looking like it was cut off. That said quite often here its simply perfection and you see a true classic photo that is oozing eroticity.
With some of the solo and lesbian work in photo here too, its damn right bloody mind blowing, some of the Franziska Facella ones are beyond dreamy, I've been a fan of hers for ages and she looks cute on other sites but here she is like a true angel and the makeup and light used on her is simply the best stuff my eyes have ever witnessed and I've seen some really good fashion photography which is a huge passion of mine.
Its a newish site so doesn't date back too far but I would say I totally recommend you take a visit here, it's really opened my eyes to how beautiful porn can actually be and it doesn't need to be women dressed up tarty and cheap, here the girls shine, they look stunning, they look to be having fun and it comes through in the movies.
If they do more group scenes and anal ones and get more facials too but all shot like this I'm going to be a fan for life. They are heading in a direction I would like to see porn, which comes away from its roots a bit and becomes all classy and sophisticated.
They lead the way to new horizons of porn I hope and its a case of getting more content and bringing back one of the girls with just photos and doing movies with them.
I can honestly say though with the calibre of models, never on any other site have I nearly clicked on every model, its unheard of with me to be honest, but there are so many gorgeous girls here it's unreal, where do they find them I don't know but many will have you falling for them.
I also loved the fact they try and hide tattoos, I really hope they try and keep tattoos away from this site as well as they can, a girl called Addison who looks absolutely stunning, just found she is called Mia Manarote and has one large one on her arm but in the awesome video of her I never noticed it, so much more beautiful without it in my opinion.
Over and out then but I did really enjoy this site.
I'm only rating it 92 because it is a smallish site but it's certainly heading in the right direction in my eyes.
Lastly I would also like to see tags more with say the category like threesome, anal. There is tabs on the video page Male-Female Couples, Group Sex, Lesbian and Single Girl but could do with more search options

Pros:
Top rated softcore site
Some of the most beautiful models ON EARTH!
Spectacular imagery and sets
4-6 updates PER DAY!
Good navigation
Cons:
Only one thing in the CON category:
obnoxious cross-selling to the other sites in the network.
One minor annoyance: The user defined keywords are not particularly useful.
Bottom Line:
This is without a doubt one of the best softcore sites on the internet. The models are spectacular, the sets are great, the clothing, hair and make-up are usually perfect, the variety is great and the girls generally look like they are having a good time. Nothing cheap or poorly done anywhere, period. Navigation is also very good.
There are several exclusive or nearly exclusive models on this site that words cannot describe. FOr example: Mila, with 44 sets, always looks like she is enjoying herself. Fergie, with only 16 sets, is a little more conservative but can melt ice with her looks. Wait...loking at the site while writing a review can be very distracting....
OK, there is rally only one negative that I'm going to mention here and it is more of a customer service thing than a fault with the site. It seems that Met Art is now part of a network which includes Sex Art, the Life Erotic, Errotica Archives and Erotic Beauty. Unlike many other networks, you have to join each oif these sites separately. OK, I can appreciate that the owners want to maximize revenue. I can even appreciate that some owner/photographers hire a model for a day or a weekend trip, shoot many, many sets and then break the sets up over multiple sites, again, to maximize revenie (Met-Art and Met-Models, now Erotic Beauty, comes to mind) What I find offensive is that in Met-Art, when you look at a set of a model, a section sometimes appears at the bottom of the set that says something like "more of this model:' with a bunch of images that are links. Well, the links are NOT WITHIN THE MET ART SITE. They are links to offers to join one of the other sites in the network where more images of this model supposedly exist. It is one thing to list other sites on the model page, but it is simply obnoxious baiting to put a clickable image of the model at the bottom of the page and only include a small reference to the name of the other site. This is the only site I've ever seen that uses this relatively deceptive practice and I absolutely hate it. (Can you tell?)
Now, in-spite of that trashy cross-selling tactic, the guys at met-art are gracious enough to discount the other sites once you join one. And, to be fair, these sites appear to have plenty of unique sets spread around to each of the sites.
So...if you have not yet been to this site and want some seriously great softcore imagery and video to add to your collection, Met-Art is a MUST. I come back every year and will probably succomb to the cross-selling and try one or more of the other sites...and will review them when I do, of course!

Pros:
- Good download Speeds
- No DMR
- Outstanding models
- Easy sign upo process
- Good amount of content
- Regular updates
- Fantasic Video Quality
Cons:
- Poor Image/photo Quality and size
- Poor Navigation
- Support is non existent
- Advertises content that does not exists
- Very difficult to cancel
- No refund policy even if the site is at fault
- 3rd party billing with threaten you if you ask a for help and will disconnect live chat when they dont have a answer
Bottom Line:
This site has the ability to be amazing but once you have signed up everything quickly turns nasty. I have joined 100s of websites and this is by far the worst experience I have ever had. They have put me off joining any porn site in the future
They advertised some content i wanted which was not in the members area so i asked tech support who passed me around and gave me an email address that does not work. Then after 1 hour I gave up and asked for a refund. This was within 3 hours of signing up mind you. They disconnected me twice in live chat then when i phoned the they said no refunds and if you issue a chargeback they will send debt collectors and fine me admin fees as well. In the end I let them keep my money as its not worth the agro anymore but Ill never come back thats for sure.
My review is complete genuine and is not over the top. Im completely honest
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU AVOID THIS SITE JOIN THIS SITE.
