Interesting replies so far. The reason I did not include "other" as an option is that it is something of a cop-out. I could also have offered "combination of the above" but didn't, for the same reason. I asked what *most* attracts you in order to force a single choice by radio button, but obviously elaborated in the written replies.
It is asking what *most* attracts you to *download*, not what most appeals after you have downloaded. And it assumes your "niche" is already satisfied - so if style of photography or filming or clothing is your thing, then you are on a site that has or includes that style - so what then most attracts you to download a particular model or photo set or video from that site? It could of course still be clothing or any one of the other choices. For example, you might be on a lingerie video site but only download videos involving a particular kind of lingerie and find that more important than body type.
For me, it is face. A plain girl with a glint of desire does not do it for me. I would not download. I have to like her face. If she is beautiful but staring into space, I might well download but I would then be disappointed. I do have preferred body types and likings in body parts and clothing but, if I do not like her face, none of those things will matter. And if I like her face, I can tolerate any of the other things missing the mark and I will download. And, if in video, no matter how good her performance, if I do not like her face then I am not interested. The face will attract me to download though I might afterwards find the performance does nothing for me.
Facial expression is part of the face as far as I am concerned. As nineinch says, "Faces that say f**k me" provided I also find them beautiful.
Perhaps this is why I say I have never yet found a site where I like more than 10% of the content. That is because I at least have to like the face. It is not just "pretty face" that I need after I have downloaded - then other factors are important too but it is the face, above all, that determines whether or not I download at all.
Keep 'em coming. I am interested to see what makes people download content.

Obviously a valid point. But, speaking as someone who, as most PU members will know by now, finds little interest in video, I must say that Sophie Moon's videos are amongst very few that can sustain my interest. She has, or had, a performance style unique in my opinion, with a powerful camera presence that I have seen in nobody else. I am convinced that her on camera orgasms are genuine - I think those contractions are pretty well impossible to fake.
My only regret is that many of the early videos are available only as low quality MPEGs. I would willingly pay a membership to SSM alone if they had access to the video tapes and could remaster them.
I have had memberships to the network, though not in the last three years. Of all that I downloaded, Sophie Moon's videos are the only ones I still watch and hers and Mia Stone's pictures the only ones I view.

I rarely watch (video) porn at all because I find it boring. I actually prefer foreign language because the dialogue in US porn is so unconvincing. It is better if I cannot easily understand what they say. If it is in a foreign language which I have some knowledge of, then it can be fun to try to follow the dialogue.

Good review, short but gets the essential points across. In your cons, you write: "...may use toys". Should "may" be "many"? In the bottom line, you write: "Lots of Dildo play." From their tour, I concluded that most models only have toy content and therefore I avoided the site.

I will not join a site that does its own billing or uses an obscure agent. Though I am happy with all the Karups sites. They do their own billing but I have been joining them since before I knew about good and bad billers. Karups are 100% trustworthy.
Apart from them, it has to be CCBill, Epoch or Segpay. I will accept NetBilling if I have a strong reason to trust the site. I have no experience of Verotel, have never encountered a site that uses them and would therefore have avoided them if it were not for recommendations from fellow users.

Hi Elephant
Thanks for the gracious reply. Small sites like this must find it hard to compete for memberships nowadays. They will never compete with the big sites on volume - hundreds or thousands of models - so one way is to be very selective on the model type and have some kind of brand feel, such as dreamy video. Looks like they are succeeding if one can judge by the numbers of votes submitted against their models. Good luck to them. Their few models that I do not recognise are intriguing. I feel I must have seen them before but cannot place where. Very frustrating!

"but there are so many gorgeous girls here it's unreal, where do they find them"
The models here are mostly rather well known US and Euro models though they choose unusual names for them. e.g Carmen for Jessie Rogers, Star for Zoey Kush, Mary for Marry Queen (aka Miela), Leila for Angel Blue. There are hardly any models in the tour that I do not instantly recognise. They are some of the world's easiest models to find, though they might well be too busy to book!
Interesting review that gives a good feel for the site. Much more oriented towards video and sex scenes than I like but you make clear that it does well in what it sets out to do.

No. It is on all the members' content too. Those samples are actual members' content. WYSIWYG (unfortunately).

Small, bottom left or bottom right.
For an example of how NOT to do it, have a look at Betty 18. There are samples to view. All the Girls 18 sites put a watermark bang in the centre of the image and it is a huge circular thing whose diameter is half the length of the long side! I had a membership many years ago and that logo is on the members' images too. Plus they also have a huge red logo at bottom left.

Thank you for the feedback. I'm glad 7zip solved the problem and added some speed too. It is a great piece of freeware. Sometimes websites make us work to get around strange obstacles!

You are welcome. The detail of my suggestion will only work of course if you have Winzip.
If you haven't, it can also be done easily using the free 7zip program to extract the zip files. Installing 7zip puts a 7zip item into the Windows right click context menu.
7zip
Extract files
Check "no pathnames"
Let us know how it goes.

You could telephone GTBill. Their international support number is a UK phone number and they have a skype number too. Both are available from the GTBill website.

Ah, I see where you are coming from now. We have a different approach to photos and stories. I am enough of a cynic to consider all the personal stories and bios to be pure fiction. For me, the personality comes through in a set of well lit, focused images in which the model engages with the camera. Sasha has hardly any of those on any site at all.

"The most irritating thing for me were the zip downloads of the older photo sets (released up until about 2008 I think), after downloading and extracting the zips you have to click your way through 7-8 folders before arriving at the photos, really annoying."
Double click the zip file to open Winzip.
Click the Extract button.
Uncheck "Use folder names".
You will then get all the images in one folder independent of any hierarchy.
Alternatively, you can use the command line addon for Winzip, where this option is a command line switch. That is what I do but command lines are not for everyone.
BTW - Good review!!

Essential for me. I will not join a site which I know does not use zips. I first joined W4B without knowing its ridiculous policy on zips of large pics but I will not rejoin for as long as they retain that policy. Even though it is easy to get around with DTA, I boycott sites which think they can increase business by putting obstacles in your download path.
I find it quicker and easier to download complete zipped sets and then delete the unwanted pics rather than create custom zips. But I can see that custom zips are good if you want to keep far fewer than you would delete. Kudos to sites that offer the choice.

A good review and, IMHO, deadly accurate too. I am a current member of the Diesel Network and consequently also of Sasha Blonde.
I get the same sense of not much personality from the collection of photo sets and videos of all their girls, with a possible exception of Gloria.
Sasha, poor girl, seems not to have been done justice on any of the sites in which she appears. MET art most captures her beauty but in a distant and impersonal manner. And Sasha Blonde is even more disappointing. It is a pity because I think she is such a beautiful and interesting model.

I too only join reliable sites with independent billing (never had a problem with Karups though).
But, back in the dim and distant days before I knew of PU or TBP, or maybe before they existed, I joined a site on which my access worked for about 5 minutes and then deactivated. I contacted ccbill and they gave me a new login, on which the same thing happened. Then a third time. Then they offered and gave me a full refund. I did not have to ask.
Chargeback is likely to get your card banned on some billers and sites so it is not something to do rashly. Refund is far preferable.

LOL Denner.
I wondered if I had been possessed by his spirit and written it while in a trance. Language is strange. We usually understand what a person means even when it is not what he says.
Thank you for the praise. I also accept chocolate. And I will try to keep them coming.

Clear and in focus is what I like too :-) It is infuriating how often neither of those is achieved.
The exif data can be a useful learning aid to determining what might have influenced those properties.
My point about not having seen any exif data on MET sets is that exif data can also identify date of shooting. It is far easier to remove exif data than to alter it and sites could get into very deep water if they altered an exif shooting date to a more recent value. Hence, if exif data is present, I trust its validity. But sites may have perfectly honourable motives or causes for its removal and I am not suggesting that so doing implies any element of deception.

Those body modifications can often resolve controversies over model identities too. Sometimes a model changes her hair colour and style, gains or loses weight and wears very different makeup. Since models appear under many different names, some distinctive tattoo, piercing or scar can sometimes be the only way to be certain she is the same person. It is sad when one can distinguish by means of pre- or post-boob-job.
Your described mix of pre- and post-piercing sets is an interesting example of where the model can be identified without the distinctive feature but where the change in feature dates the sets.

I realised you were making an amusing point but I took the opportunity to respond with a serious one. Some models do appear to defy aging, it is true. There probably is not a great amount of noticeable change in a fit woman between ages 21 and 26, which is possibly the age group most models fall into, even the "18 year-olds". And I also suppose that the ones who become very well known and successful also get very good at applying makeup which is inconspicuous yet covers blemishes and any minor signs of aging.
I hope these words too are clear. Thank you for the compliment.

I do not know if this applies to Eufrat as I have never followed her. But most sites would buy a whole stack of photo sets from a photographer. A photographer does not hire a model and do one set of 50 pictures. He (or she) hires the model and shoots 5 to 10 sets. Or he hires her for two days when she is in the area and shoots 20 sets. If a site likes a model, I guess they might buy 3, 5 or 10 of those sets, or all 20. Some sites, like Nubiles, release their purchase over consecutive days. Others drag out the release over weeks, months or years. I would need to examine MET sets very carefully to see if sets released a year apart show any evidence of having been shot at different times. Have you ever seen any exif data in a MET set?
Of course, there are some very successful internet models, and Eufrat is probably one of those, Sophie Moone is another, whose careers go on for many years. They will be hired for multishoot sets repeatedly and you will see material shot years apart.
All I am saying is that things are not necessarily what they seem. Sites like to give the impression that they maintain a relationship with the models over years. Maybe they do with some. But I bet there are very few of those.

Very slim to medium build does it for me. Medium build would be what most everyday women are. But the sort of build where you would get lost without a compass does not appeal to me.
I agree with graymane and have met and worked with some delightful, very large women. But porn is a different matter.
