I tend to keep my eye on this site because I usually re-subscribe when enough updates have accumulated to make it worth my while. However I have noticed, to my regret, that they appear to be running out of mature models because quite often the same model is featured two, three times in the space of a couple of weeks. Can we expect some new models soon or are they just too hard to find?

Cons:
Cons
Some of included sites have not updated for a couple years
Download choices are not clear about size of video - what do the following really mean:
Low Quality H.264
Medium Quality WMV
Medium Quality H.264
High Quality WMV
Ultra High Quality WMV
Ultra High Quality H.264
The older - no longer updated sites - have very low quality video
There are also “bonus” sites, which appear to be even older and not updated.
Was it just me, and my tastes in porn, or did I just get bored with this site (network of sites) very fast. The older guys in the Grandpas Fuck Teens, really were old turn offs for me. (of course if I ever had a video of my own - I am sure I would be even worse than any of them were - so who am I to complain)
I have long had an interest in pee fetish, and was very hopeful about the Zoliboy site. There are some interesting videos there, and I did like some of them very much, but there were also too many videos of old guys pissing on younger women, which just didn’t quite work out for me. 3 guys standing on a platform showering a girl below in pee, just isn’t what I wanted. But I do understand that pee videos are a small niche, and everyone has their own preferences. You might really like this.
It took me a while to figure out that when one selects to view a video, there are a number of short clips from each video presented, as well as the entire video as a single clip.
Net result of being a member for the past three weeks is that I realized that this site is just not what I wanted. I can’t exactly describe what it is about it that does not match my thoughts, but something which I had hoped for, something nebulous, just wasn’t there, so I have canceled my membership.
The fetishes were maybe a little to “strong” for me. The “use” of women, for example in the Teach me fisting site just wasn’t for me.
If you like this site great! I just felt uncomfortable with it. I have tried to be objective - in that the site does what it says - and if you like what this site offers, then it is well built and works fine - it just didn’t work for me.

Pros:
Same people as 21 Sextury.com, so you can expect the same level or quality of porn as you would from them (see my other 21 Sextury review for more details about vid quality, etc.)
Very nice navigation. You can look at the front pages of the individual sites, then search within them, or you can just go look up a master list of "categories" and it will pull vids from all the sites. Lot's of tags you can search by as well. For those of you with VideoBox memberships, 21 Sextury/Sextreme's tagging system blows theirs away.
Vids come in several mp4 and wmv formats ranging in quality. Warning, all high quality and better vids are usually over 1gb here.
Streaming is good quality and pretty reliable. No chop, no stuttering, buffering, etc.
Very fast download speeds. I clocked about 2.25 mb/s on average. I use a DLM so this may affect that to some extent. They are DLM friendly, though, like most sites now only if you get the vids within an hour or so.
Cons:
The name 21 Sextreme is misleading. Yes, it is supposed to be the more extreme, fetish niche stuff, but it's not really that extreme or edgy. For me, old people having sex with young people is not that extreme. Just because it is a fetish doesn't mean it's an extreme fetish.
14 Sextreme sites vs. 20 Sextury for the same price?
Some of the Sextreme sites subjects get covered by Sextury sites already (fisting and lesbian stuff in particular.)
Bottom Line:
They offer a package deal to get both 21 Sextury and Sextreme together for like $45. But you can join each site individually from here for like $20 each, so do it that way if you think you want both.
I like Sextreme for Dominated Girls, Home Porn Reality (one of the better sites imo), Mighty Mistresses, and yes, even Tight Gay Holes. I'm one of those bi-curious guys who could become a raging queen for some of the guys on that site. Zoliboy, for those of you who don't know, is a little like MILF Hunter or Bang Bus with a lot of pissing. There are also three decent tranny sites if you're into that.
I don't know if I mentioned this in the previous review of 21 Sextury, but he bonus sites are basically just that, Bonus. You'll get a smattering of decent vids from these, but they are not full blown or necessarily extensive websites. It tends to be a lot of the stuff you get from either of the main sites, just geared towards a specific race or body type. Intermixed Sluts is a pretty cool site, so as an added bonus that's pretty cool.
The big question is do you join this as well, or just 21 Sextury by itself? Honestly, I think this is a good site, but I think I would feel it lacking if I didn't also have the membership to 21 Sextury. IMO, this is soemthing you would want in addition to 21 Sextury, not in place of it. There are far better "extreme" sites out there if that is solely what you are looking for.
I scored this an 89 because I do believe that overall the site is that good. Just because it didn't fully satisfy my tastes doesn't mean it won't fully satisfy yours. One plus is that this does give you a well rounded selection of fetishes, in particular gay material. Most sites separate the gay male vids into a whole other site you have to pay for. So if you like a little variety in regards to that, there's another selling point.
Seven months ago I complained about the scarcity of updates when we got 14 updates a week. Since they list 36 sites that was pretty skimpy. Now it is down to 6 updates a week (one of them not even HD). Great site for first time subscribers .. not so great for repeaters.
I guess I should have paid more attention to what the bonus points for past and present membership actually get you. I had enough credits accumulated to download two, three videos (I thought) and just found out that the bonus points are for "streaming only." I am sure everyone else is aware of this, but I've always been impatient when it comes to the small details, so, to me, the points are now wasted and another reason not to re-subscribe. I mean, if I see a scene by Blue Angel or Faye Reagan or some other hottie I don't just want to watch the video for twenty minutes, I want to own it!!
I wonder how many of you see this as a genuine, valuable bonus? And I won't get mad at you if you like streaming just fine! I am asking from idle curiosity.
P.S. See my reply to Pat (Feb.07) on how the whole thing finally resolved itself. With my apologies to 21Sextreme.
... when I resubscribed to this site. Out of 14 updates across the board this past week, out of 36 sites, 7 were non HD low quality videos. I remember a time when non-HD content was quite good but nowadays the quality appears to have gone downhill.
Not only that, but they stop updating sites arbitrarily. The weekly update for Old Young Lesbian love was due yesterday but never showed up. I know they were toying with the idea of letting this site go to sleep but, in that case, they could at least add a new site to make up for it. Other sites like Zoliboy used to be raunchy but have now switched to much milder material that would be quite at home in its sister site 21Sextury.
In any case the longer I look the more I am appalled that so many of the 36 sites are still producing low quality material. I would now say that this is a good site for a one time subscription only, because a long time subscription will bring a lot of boredom and frustration with it.
This will be my last time with 21Sextreme unless most, if not all, content is being offered in HD in the near future.

Pros:
The dirty sister of 21Sextury with lots of contents even after it split off. Today (8th August) 21Sextreme lists 5120 scenes as well as 2032 models in total.
36 sites in total. 18 primary sites and 18 bonus sites.
Will appeal to the pervert in you with plenty of fetish material. This may not be to everyone's liking but they even list 7 Trannie sites as well as one gay site (highly unusual in most “straight” networks.) Not to forget my personal favorites, the “very” mature sites like “Lusty Grandmas,” I believe there are at least four sites like it which counts as a plus ... however, see below.
New picture sets are available zipped in regular size, as well as in Hi-Resolution at 1696x2544px, while the scenes are being offered in medium wmv and mp4, high wmv and mp4 (720x540 with a 3500 bitrate) as well as in two HD sizes, 1280x720p and 1920x1080p.
21Sextury and 21Sextreme excel when it comes to quality because even the non-HD scenes are quite watchable even in full screen.
Cons:
While updates come regularly, an average of 11 updates a week is a bit meager for a network of 36 sites. This is because many of the sites stopped updating some time ago and others update only infrequently.
Our users should also be aware of the fact that not all updates are in HD because some of the sites, even though they are still active, have not yet switched to the higher grade material.
Especially galling for me is the fact that only one mature site updates on a weekly basis while the others are slumbering, awaiting a wake up call by the site owners. You might find that this is also the case in connection with your favorite niche!
Bottom Line:
All in all I like this “darker” sister of 21Sextury a lot. I never did visit the individual model sites as well as the more “glamorous” teenie sites all that often in the olden days, so, to me, the fact that they split into two has actually encouraged me to concentrate on the rest of the 21Sextremes contents more closely and I like what I see.
For the fan of the unusual, this fetish site will be quite satisfying. For a low price you will get a satisfying share of lesbians, trannies, grannies, granddads and BDSM and some other kinky stuff, with even a gay site thrown into the mix, and the technical quality of the more recent material is great.
28/11/2011: Took out a new subscription and noticed how many of the prime sites are still updating in an outdated format. Today's update was marked HD but the quality is far from HD like. This update does not even look like DVD quality as it is blurry when viewed in full window. This is the case with many updates that are not marked Super HD. So, high quality updates are fewer and farther between than I thought when I first wrote this review. Downgraded by five points.
I have had a Club Sandy level membership with 21sextury off and on for years. Definitely the longest running membership I've ever had with any porn site.
As always they have some of the best content and models available and a very wide range of genres. Which is what drew me to them in the first place.
Unfortunately genre range is too wide?!? So I guess that's why they split it into 21sextury and 21sextreme. Unfortunately for me all my favorite sub-sites are now split almost equally among the two sites! So now it's either choose one site or the other or subscribe to both. :-(
... but 21Sextreme is NOT a site clone of 21Sextury as listed on this page by TBP! 21Sextury split in two with different and more extreme contents featured on this site.
Just got a mail:
"Free Membership for Loyal Members"
Then it goes on:
"We've automatically upgraded your old account into a free member account."
Hey, wow - a PU thinks.......and you log in - with your e-mail and new password - BUT: What the f...!!
No way to get anything - then after realizing this is shit - you get the message: Account not found!
Then:
"Your subscription has expired! Please feel free to renew your membership on the settings page. As a gift for your loyalty, we are happy to offer a 20% discount on your subscription fee in case you purcase an annual membership."
Man, really - what kind of policy is this........I'll go elsewhere. Jeeeez.
This split indeed cements my decision to keep on subscribing to the old 21Sextury network since as an old subscriber I get to have the 47 sites that I've gotten accustomed to so far. 21Sextury would be a clear winner of these two split halves for me if I was a new member but just because DominatedGirls is on this side of the fence, I'd be unhappy with just the other half. The rest I could live without.
ps. The duplicate comment should be removed in my opinion since now there's actually nothing duplicate between the new 21Sextury and the 21Sextreme.
Looking at the sites listed it seems that the people at 21 Sextury have quietly split their network in two, with some of the more fetish and niche sites ending up on the 21 Sextreme side.
It would seem, at least from the preview offered, that people joining 21 Sextury now will not get Teach Me Fisting, Zoliboy or Grandpas Fuck Teens, among others, because they are on the 21 Sextreme side of the fence.

Pros:
-Low intro price of $9.95 first month, recurring $29.95/monthly.
-Loads of attractive models.
-Wide variety of models. You get some content of your popular porn stars, and loads other girls as
well.
-Fast download speeds. I get over 2MB/sec, which is close to my max download speed.
-Easy login. No captcha.
-No DRM.
-No download limits.
-Long time before site timeout (I just got timed out. Lost my place. So this site is not as generous as some in site timeout.)
-Professionally shot videos. Good lighting, good colors, good focus, good sound control, etc.
-Lots of niches covered.
-Easy navigation. But there are so many attractive models, you get tired looking through the videos, trying to decide which to view.
-Lots of viewing options. Can stream, or download in different definitions.
-Zip file for photosets.
-Content is basically exclusive.
Cons:
-The cons are basically minor.
-The $9.95 for first month is a great bargain for a great network. But renewing at $29.95/month
makes you wonder about renewing.
-There is a pre-checked cross-sell, but it was easy to see and uncheck.
-Initial signup was a little strange. I was rejected 4 times when I tried to use a Master card to sign up. I switched to a Visa card and was accepted the first time.
-For some videos, I get the message: "A plugin is needed to display this content". Most videos will
stream, but a few don't.
-The ultra high quality video files can be large. 1.4 GB for a runtime of 32 minutes.
-The search box returns can be buggy sometimes. You enter "Mia Malkova", who has 2 videos and 2
matching photosets, and the search returns, "Your search - Mia Malkova - did not match any documents." The search box is supposed to search the entire network, not just the site you are currently logged in to.
-The default filename is a random number.
Bottom Line:
The site/network is easy to use, once you get over how many models and videos and photosets there are. It should be a real pleasure going through the high quality contents of attractive women doing dirty sex. But the sheer magnitude of the contents-strangely-almost makes it seem like work.
Sites like X-Art and Diesel Access network, while far smaller, just seem easier to use, because,
psychologically, you know there's less material. And I like or appreciate the models at X-Art and
Diesel Access network more. The videos at those sites seem more intimate, the approach is more
glamcore/heartcore. I don't mean the 21SexTury videos are gonzo. But the models at 21Sextury appear more hardcore pros, while the models at the other two sites I mentioned just seem to give a softer, more real vibe to their performances.
-The best things about this network/site: A large number of lovely models. The videos are crystal
sharp, well focused, good lighting, professionally shot, good colors.
-What is unusual, is that the accompanying photosets are really high quality. The photos are taken by professional photographers who know what they are doing. So you have high quality photos of lovely young models in sexual situations.
Most of the sites focus on a particular niche. At other networks, there might be little attempt to focus the content. But this network makes an effort to supply content specific to the theme of the site.
-Can view the photos online, or download the photoset in a zip file.
-The photoset zip files give two options: normal, and high resolution definitions. (Older photosets
might have just a normal definition zip file).
-Photosets have 100+ photos per set.
-Can stream or download the videos.
-Video runtime averages 30+ minutes per video.
Older videos give you a choice of medium or high definition for download.
Newer videos give you more choices for definition for download:
Low quality H.264
Medium quality wmv
Medium quality H.264
High quality wmv
Ultra high quality wmv
Ultra high quality H.264
-You can download the entire video, or can select partial scenes from the video for download.
-With so many sites (you get access to 39 sites), and so many models, and so many videos and photosets to examine, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. Just bite the bullet, and keep looking, and you will almost certainly find models and videos and photosets that will appeal.
The introductory price of $9.95 for the first month (recurring at $29.95/month thereafter) makes this a real bargain. I don't know why I haven't tried this site before.
Have you noticed that recently you cannot enter this site directly from TBP? You can only enter from one of the other niche sites and then join for $19.95 per month.
Some sites have poor preview pages, that show very little of what the site offers.
21sextury has a great preview pages.
The thumbnails show clearly what the models look like.
You have some really nice-looking models.
The videos look professionally shot.
You get to see short samples of the videos.
Reading the PU site reviews, scores range from 80s to 90s.
This is not directly in my comfort zone, as far as the type of sex action. I like a slower approach to sex. The sample videos I saw are like a bucking bronco at a rodeo.
Bu with a first month offer of $9.95, and a ton of gorgeous models, it's worth a try.
So I will sign up tomorrow.
Edit01:
OK. I signed up at 21sextury.
For some reason, the signup page rejected my Mastercard credit card 4 times.
I then tried a Visa card, and the signup page accepted that card.
The biller is Epoch.
After accepting my registration, I got a URL page that said, in part:

Pros:
-Gorgeous women (over 3000 models)
-Great sex variety (over 10,500 scenes, most exclusive)
-Great variety in women
-Scenes well-shot
-Files reasonably-sized and look great in 1080p
-At least 1 update per day
-No download limits
-No DRM
Cons:
-Nonsensical file naming
-Navigation is a mixed bag
-Scene search could be better
-Very few "American" scenes in HD (not necessarily a con to me but could be for some)
Bottom Line:
Simply put, 21sextury knows how to make good porn but not how to distribute it.
Pros:
-This site has more gorgeous women than several other sites combined. There is definitely a more Euro focus, but if you like models who are on the thinner side while still having breasts, then this is the place for you. Sometimes, a search of their "chubby" models can be humorous, since some of them could be considered slightly overweight at worst. They do have several of the more popular "American" models (i.e. Gianna Michaels, Faye Reagan) but they tend to be on the bonus sights which are typically only in 480 resolution.
-Though there is a bit of a Euro focus, there is still a lot of variety in the women. They have women ranging from super-thin to the ultra-voluptuous. Many of the women fall in the "athletic" body type, but there is variety in looks (be it hair, breasts, face, etc.) that prevents me from feeling like I am looking at a bunch of clones.
-Most of the videos since 2010 (maybe a little earlier) are 1080, and there is quite a bit of 720 from the years before that. The file sizes are quite reasonable, with a 20 minute video coming in around 900MB
-The videos are well-shot. They tend to set everything up so the model is the main focus, and keep the angles and positions varied throughout.
-There is great sexual variety on this site. Even without subscribing to 21sextreme, this site provides a wide array of sex, even into the kinky categories. Most scenes contain anal in some aspect, but there are a number of hardcore scenes that are vaginal-only. While this may be my opinion and sound odd, the anal is not often treated as "special," and by that I mean that they do not make it a big deal, say "here we go!" or have an upping of the ante to be more aggressive when anal happens; it is simply another hole. There are plenty of DP's and quite a few, though not as many, BGG scenes. If you are not in the mood for hardcore, there are plenty of lesbian and solo videos. NudeFightClub is a different take on the lesbian scenes, as there is only about 5-10 minutes of sex at the end with a majority of the video focusing on them rolling around and pulling each others' clothes off with a minimal degree of aggressiveness.
-The site provides at least one, but typically 2 updates per day.
-The site download speeds are good, there are no download limits, and there is no DRM attached to the file.
Cons:
-The file names are all in some code that makes sense only to them. Renaming files is necessary for future reference. Personally, I found it easy to add downloaded scenes to my favorites to make sure I did not download them twice and/or could remember the name and model.
-The site navigation, while not horrible, still has plenty of room to improve. When you look at a model's scene history, they are in a seemingly random order and it can be annoying to find her most recent scenes. Sometimes filters do not reset even after you click the option, leave the page, and come back.
-While tied to the navigation, the scene search became an annoyance. Originally, they had over 100 options, as well as the ability to search just about anything and in full combination (anal scene, outdoors, long brown-haired model with trimmed bush and medium pear-shaped breasts could be searched and you would still have options) and then they removed it to more generic categories. I find it ironic that they went from more detailed to less, especially when they already had the details in the system.
-If you like the more traditional American porn, there are few scenes and fewer still in any kind of HD. This does not bother me, but anyone looking for this would be better served elsewhere.
All in all, I was a member for a month longer than originally planned and was still finding new and intriguing models and scenes. I have no reservations about joining again in the future, as the girls, sex, and presentation are all top notch. Even the cons are more annoyances that can easily be worked around and do not ruin the experience.
I give this site a solid recommendation and the rating will only increase as the navigation improves.

Pros:
-Variety of models, themes, and 'genres'
-Really hot girls
-Unfathomable amount of content (you won't scratch the surface in a month).
-HD Quality on many movies and photos
-Zipped photo-sets
-Frequent Updates
-DL Manager friendly (mostly)
-
Cons:
-User interface is buggy
-Log ins time out after approx. 1 1/2 hours of inactivity (too short for my tastes)
-Renewal price expensive compared to initial discount.
-No download resume support with DL managers.
-General feel of the scenes is monotonous (see Bottom Line)
-File sizes are unlisted (hope you like surprises)
-Customer Service is a Joke
Bottom Line:
I'm a returning member to this site after being off it for a few years. The Bottom Line is that this is a site that I like the idea of more than I like the site itself. In other words, the site appeals to me when I'm not a member, but quickly bores me once I buy a membership.
That being said there's a lot to like about this site. It features some of the hottest girls in the European industry and a few familiar faces from the American (e.g. Tori Black, Samantha Ryan, etc.) The site is huge with a nice variety of niches to suit your needs. Many videos (and certainly about all of the one's released in the last few years) are full HD. Photo sets are zipped for download (which I still can't believe isn't a universal feature on adult sites). Updates are daily and are a good mix of genres.
The bad side is that despite the variety of niches, the scenes don't vary that much from each other. Granted that, to an extent, one anal scene has a lot in common with the others, each scene is practically the same setup. Their porn could benefit from an awareness of particular fantasies and situations, rather than just particular sex acts. While what you get is good for the PU discount on your first month, it's just not good enough to keep me around for another month for $29.
Lastly, the site has made some major improvements to its technical aspects since I was last a member, but its still lacking. For one, it's buggy: I'll sometimes select a filter to sort scenes or models by, only to return to browse other scenes to find that I can't remove the old filter. Likewise, when you view a model's profile, it will have a preview pic of four or five of her scenes. These pics are supposed to be paginated (i.e. there's a link just above them for you to go to the next page) but clicking on 'next' will just reload her profile. If you want to view all of her scenes, you have to click on a different, not-quite-as-visible link.
For another, the site lacks some basic features. Video links don't indicate their size, which is problematic when deciding which quality video to download. The website appears to log users out after only a couple hours unless the page is refreshed regularly. This is particularly frustrating when in the middle of downloading a large file because, while they have support for download managers, they do not appear to support resuming a download that has been interrupted (I'm using FDM, so, of course, your mileage may vary).
That being said, I do recommend giving this site a chance if you catch one of PU's discounts.
ADDENDUM 1: The problem with the site automatically logging you out is apparently a problem common with wireless connections: if you don't have a static IP, their system will intermittently identify your computer as a different user and will bump you out of the members area; while I understand the logic behind it, it keeps users from sharing their passwords, it's an inelegant solution that produces infuriating results. I did have some success using the Firefox addon "Reload Every" however, even that didn't completely avoid the problem.
Addendum 2: Since I've written this review, I've encountered 21sextury's less than astounding customer service. I found them a little rude and very unhelpful. In response to an issue I was having, their reply was essentially: 'well, the problem is on your end: You fix it'. The support request was then closed without further ado. When I tried to click on links that would allow me to re-open the request and ask for more information, none of them worked, they all just redirected me to their homepage.
Clearly, whoever runs their customer service needs some lessons in troubleshooting and customer relations. My experience was bad enough to reduce my score from 81 to 76
The site navigation has become a complete joke. If you go to a models page it lists her scenes in a completely random order. It used to always be in chronological order, but not anymore. For a model like Sandy with a few hundred scenes, it's impossible to find anything specific if you're looking for newer stuff. There are no sort options whatsoever. I submitted this issue at least a week ago, never heard anything.
Furthermore technical support is non-existent as has ALWAYS been the case. Sure you can submit problems like this but you're just wasting your time as no one will ever answer them. Their link for checking submitted problems is a fake and just sends you to the site homepage. As such I suspect the problem submissions page doesn't actually submit problems either. Their email address is worthless as they don't reply. It most likely goes to a mailbox no one ever checks.
Simply put as has always been the case they don't care one bit about customer support. However, at least in the past you could still find what you were looking for, now with content displayed randomly, in no specific order, you can't even do that for models with more than a small number of scenes.
Just logged in today and now I'm finding that when I click on a scene page the damn videos start streaming automatically. It's never done this before so I'm assuming this is another so called upgrade or improvement to the navigation?
21Sextury has released a new "network" called 21Naturals. Seems to follow PassionHD and similar in white light, low contrast style with more couples themed action. Why it had to be another package entirely and not just a site, beats me.
Current Member for less than 1 month (at the time of review).
Pros:
A huge network featuring 39 sites covering a wide range of niches.
Over 10,000 scenes and more than 2600 models.
Almost everything since 2009 comes with stunning quality hd video and high resolution photos ranging from 4000 to 6000px on the long end.
Photos downloadable in zips in a choice of 2 sizes.
Latest videos come with a choice of 6 download options in h264 and wmv formats, a mobile option and 3 streaming options. Videos available as full scene or broken in to several parts.
Normally 1 to 2 new scenes per day across the network.
Excellent download speeds
Unbeatable value for money at only $9.95 for the first month with PU/TBP discount.
Billing by Epoch with no regional pricing
Cons:
Watch out for the pre-checked cross sells at sign up
Price increases to $29.95 after the first month.
The different sites lack any real identity; they all look the same and use the same layout and navigation. It just feels like one big site in my opinion.
Unable to browse the high resolution photos online as they only come in zips.
File sizes not listed for zips or videos.
Some ridiculously large file sizes.
Personally I found the site layout and navigation extremely frustrating to use.
Very few new updates of interest to those of us who like solo content.
Bottom Line:
I’ll admit I’m probably not the typical 21Sextury subscriber since I’m not really interested in hardcore action or videos and since my preferred niche is generally softcore photo based sites much of the content here is way out of my comfort zone. However I’ve seen enough previews of their content on free sites over the years to know I should expect to find more than enough solo content on sites like Pix and Video and Club Sandy to keep me occupied for at least a month.
I did not like the navigation or layout of this network at all and found myself very frustrated trying to navigate around and find what I wanted. The first time I logged in I seemed to spend a couple of hours just aimlessly clicking around trying to figure out a way to navigate the sites I was interested in. There was a long list of scene filters down the left hand side of the screen which I couldn’t get to work in Internet Explorer but later discovered they worked in Chrome so switched to that and managed to find a method for downloading my content. I was able to select a site (ie Pix and Video or Club Sandy) then check the “solo-masturbation” option and that brought up all the content I was interested in. About 9 or 10 days in to my membership the site seemed to undergo some kind of upgrade and those scene filters disappeared so I became frustrated again at having to find another method to navigate the content. The scene filters are still there but they only show up when you select “scenes” which brings up a list of the entire network scenes. If you select an individual site such as Pix and Video which in itself has 2,841 scenes there is no option that I can see to search or filter those scenes within that individual site. I would just like to be able to select a site (i.e. Club Sandy or Pix and Video) and then select solo scenes within that site.
I also don’t like the way the model index is displayed. I like to see the models name and photo but here you only get photos. You have to hover your mouse over the photos to find out the model info. When you select a model and see her scene list you then have to hover your mouse over the preview picture for every scene to find out which site it comes from which I find really irritating. Hovering your mouse on the scene preview picture can also bring up a series of preview captions but I found it a bit hit and miss whether those actually display. When I find a model like Sophie Moone or Sandy with the number of scenes running in to the hundreds spread over several pages it would nice to be able to filter the scenes also within the model’s page (i.e. select Sandy solo scenes).
Once I got past all my frustrations with the navigation I found they do have an amazing amount of content with archives dating back to 2003. It’s a real treasure trove for collectors of top Euro models like Eve Angel, Sandy, Sophie Moone and Sandra Shine all of whom I’ve collected for years. Almost every scene I saw comes with a video and photo set. The photo shoots are all professionally done and look consistently good throughout the site. Only downside is I found the file sizes of some of the high resolution photo sets too much for my connection to handle, often in the 600 to 800 MB size range. The first day I was on the site it took me the best part of an evening to download about 30 photo sets and when I checked the size of the folder it was over 12GB so I just deleted them all and replaced them with the standard 1280px photo sets. Personally I would prefer to have a decent mid-sized photo option around 2000px.
Overall I felt the same about this site as I did about X-Art, as a first time subscriber it was well worth a 1 month subscription to go through the archives but there are so few new updates of interest to me that I could not see myself keeping a recurring subscription or even returning anytime soon. As a fan of solo content I thought DDF Network was much better with a new solo scene added more or less daily to their 1-by-Day site whereas here you’re lucky to see 1 new solo scene per week. As a first time member I give it an 85 for the huge amount of content available, if I was a returning member I would probably rate it much lower due to lack of interesting new updates

Bottom Line:
Over view :
I was a member many many years ago, the site has changed allot since then. The site is huge and there are optional other sites & services to buy.
Toads Pro's :
The site is huge, and allot to choose from would take more then a month subscription to download all the movies and photo sets. Most Movies after 2010 come in HD Hi-Res. I was impressed with the older content, some going back to 2005 for those with Nostalgia in mind. There are movies from many well knowns before they were, and before surgeries. The discount price makes it worth a join up. Tons of new material this year alone. It will having you coming back for more each day as there is allot to look for and enjoy.
The photo's in hi-res are stunning and well done a huge plus for the site.
Toads Cons:
Nothing I hate more then crosschecked ads, the site lost 5 points from me alone for this annoyance at checkout. Models are gorgeous 99% of them are knock outs. There is 1% of some very unattractive stars that looked like they had not showered and were drugged out. I took offense to this personally as it look horrible. Luckily this was very rare but annoying. If you click on models you get pictures with no names and must hover to see the name. Very annoying on a site with a thousand porn stars on it. It would have not been bad but the search engine and search check box simply are not accurate. Making specific scenes or model searched time consuming and difficult. Site constantly tries to sell you to chat, and the search finds items for site options you have not paid for. Unfortunately you find out after clicking on a movie you think you can get and now can't. Well you can at additional costs. Annoying !!!
Toads Take.
Great site large very large. The site makes more work or seems that way due to the size and some issues like poor search engine, no name models and broken links on older content, cross checked ad and selling more sites in their search engine and pop up chats cost the site 12 points really annoyed me.
The site has unique movies and sets, many stars that are long since retired are here a nice bonus if you are looking for a treat from the past.
The site focused allot on hardcore with it being maybe 40% of all content. Followed by Lez, and Solo. The look and feel are high tech, the few bugs I found do not make this a bad site. It is a very good site with some annoying aspects.
I would have given the site a perfect score without these annoyances. As it sits the site is very good, but just misses excellent marks.
Join ?
Yes at a discount most definitely, but keep in mind cross check sale and pops up. And many additional site cost. At full price this site would annoy the hell out of me. If you want to sell items don't force them by crosscheck, pop up and sales in searches. I really wanted to give the site higher marks as I see many in PU gave it much higher then me. Why I respect the other reviews the annoying factor forced my hand at a very good rating. Join the site keep in mind these issues and have fun. I am hard on all my reviews , because it is my money.
21Sextury.com is a damn good site so don't let the annoyances keep you away, just keep them, in mind.
Enjoy.
A note I had exempted from the review was spam.
I had noticed and increase in spam and thought nothing of it just set my filter. I then noticed it was adult oriented,upon more inspection I had used and email that had no spam at all and dated going back two days after I joined spam began. I can not say it is the site 100% but joining and then more adult spam on a seldom used email? Well you be the judge. Being I can not be 100% sure I did not change the score and only made mention here.
Just logged in tonight and found the search filters that were down the left hand side of the screen have disappeared making the site virtually impossible to navigate for me.
Normally I just tick the "solo-masturbation" box which filters out virtually everything else that I'm not interested in so I don't have to wade through a sea of anal sex and gaping ass holes to find the nice solo sets.
I must admit I've found the navigation of this network one of the most difficult I've come across and without this filter it's virtually impossible for me to find what I want. The filters didn't work in Internet Explorer anyway so I've been using Chrome. Let's just hope it's only a temporary issue and they are fixing the bugs that caused it not to work in IE otherwise I'm going to be calling it a day on this site.
