| Pros: |
++ $1, 1 day full access trial (bills thru Segpay)
++ Big pictures (up to 4300 pixels, but most sets are still in the 2500 pixel range) with zips
++ Exclusive content (for me anyways, other reviewers have said different but I don't know and haven't seen it elsewhere)
+ Good sized vids (720x540 on most, a few are bigger) and d/l options (wmv, mpeg and quicktime as well as flash streaming)
+ Movies have screen caps to see what you're getting
+ No DRM
+ No cross sales on signup
+ About 680 vids and 300 pic sets |
| Cons: |
-- Pretty amateur in terms of quality and performances
- Picture sets don't offer a lot
- Slowish download speeds (1 gig = 1 hour of download time on my highspeed connection)
- Search and navigation need work
- No scene downloads, all or nothing
- Cannot jump around within the scene while using the streaming video option
- Camera work could be better (too often the guy seems glued to one spot or has a few focus issues)
- Page often has to refresh when going back and forth from it.
- No model info, just the name
- A couple of video updates a week, pics don't update anymore |
| Bottom Line: |
I checked this one out on the el cheapo trial to see some exclusive Eastern Euro puntang. That's what I got but it didn't exactly leave me with that "Charlie Sheen drinking tiger blood with the goddesses winning" feeling. This site is focused on hardcore younger girl porn and that's what most of the scenes are. Here's the lowdown:
PICS: All pics have zips and they are pretty big. The problem is that there isn't much content. At most a couple of positions and because the photographer won't move it isn't uncommon to get no view of the old "in and out". When your getting almost 200 pics per set and only a handful are good, that ain't good. The newest stuff can be slow download (can you say a half hour for one zip set) because of the large files. Some pics were out of focus too. Lighting and quality varies a lot. If you're into pics, this place won't satisfy you.
VIDS: All the vids were good sized and I didn't have any sections that were garbled from the download like some other reviewers did. The quality, angles (again, sometimes you just see bodies rubbing with no visible action) and lighting varies a lot from scene to scene. While the girls are exclusive they are also pretty amateur and it shows in the performance, not much excitement from most of them. Yes, it beats gonzo screamers but this is pushing it towards the other extreme. You do get screen caps and you'll need them because the stream option can only run from beginning to end, no jumping. Download times, as mentioned, need some help.
NAV: No real navigation other than the pics and vids home pages. No tags, no search engine, no model info. It is more of an amateur site but it is getting a bit big to have non of this info and still be functional.
OTHER: They do have some social networking functionality within the site which I never bothered with. Overall, I wasn't all that impressed. The girls are mostly cute but many of them don't put much into their performances. All the scenes are in Russian so you don't know what they're saying when the vids start but I bet you can use your imagination to figure out where it's heading. The camera work needs help and kills most of the picture sets. The volume of content is what keeps it in the high 70's for my scoring system.
You also get access to Spunkybee and Rough18 but the same issues I had with this site follow to those as well.
I had no problem finding what I wanted with my 1 day membership even with the slow download speeds. Certainly not worth the full $35 a month. So, I guess it's a good diversion for a day but don't expect a ton of good stuff here. Be happy with what you can still get for a buck I guess. |

| Pros: |
+Full trail for a dollar
+Great looking models
+Get To Choose own log in name/pass
+Fast and easy streaming options
+Nice Pic Sets |
| Cons: |
-Downloaded videos have lots of distortions during playback
-search functions (not a lot)
-Wish they had subs so i can no what there talking about
-no partial downloading of the scenes |
| Bottom Line: |
This is an okay site overall. All the female models look fantastic. Most of there content is either boy girl with a few group scenes of like 3-four people. Also they have hand full of solos and 2-3 lesbian scene. Depending on ones taste is whether or not you would like the site. If you like all the screaming, dirty talk and flailing around by the women this isn't the site for you.
Video quality is good in most cases but the downloading can be greatly improved. When i downloaded the videos from the site almost every scene was distorted in some part of the video.
There is nearly no searching options at all. You can search by models name but thats about all. Some of the scenes are tag by what type of scene they are but not all.
It is well Worth the dollar trial but not the 30 dollar recurring fee. |

| Pros: |
-You get access 2 2 other sites.
-You get a large part of the content from the sites owned by tony bucks CO.(see Cons)
-Videos can be dowloaded in quicktime, mpeg and WMV but only the wmv allows low, medium or high quality videos.
-Phototsets can be downloaded as a complete zip file. |
| Cons: |
-Their navigation system has many holes in it from some models name not being listed or some files being misleading. They have to do some major clean up because it's a mess.
-Their dating system makes no sense because they claissify their scenes by the number of days, weeks or months when it was added.
-The content of this site is almost exclusively taken from all the other sites under the tony bucks Co banner so why join this site when you can get it all with the spunky bee membership? |
| Bottom Line: |
-This site is the perfect example of what annoys me about some internet companies. They created this site so that customers could get access to a large of the content on their other sites without having to join another site but you aren't really getting anu exclusif material. you simply have it under one roof.
-Since the navigation is such a mess and I have access to almost all the content with my membership to spunky bee then it was really hard for me to give a proper score.
-There is plenty of content to be had so many people will be satisfied but avoid this site if you have been a past member of any of the other sites under the tony bucks banner or better yet just join spunky bee and you'll get it all. |

| Pros: |
-The best site design of this network I've seen so far.
-Nice-sized thumbnail for each model, giving you a good idea of what the model looks like. Many of the network sites have no nice-sized thumbnail of the model, so you have to play the streaming video or download the complete video before you get an idea of what the model looks like.
-Multiple viewing/downloading options:
Steaming: in low, medium, high quality
Screenshots: good sized, blurry to nice quality, to illustrate the video, could be downloaded as individual photos, but mainly useful to see what
the model looks like and to get an idea of the action.
Download options:
WMV, low, medium, high quality
MPEG
MOV
-Advertises daily updates of videos.
-No DRM
-Easy login to site.
-I don't like captcha, but this site has the easiest to read captcha that I've seen.
Search is basic but functional: search by model name returns model's videos and thumbnail of model. |
| Cons: |
Mostly minor:
-There is a site timeout. But login is easy.
-Advertises 500+ teen porn videos. My sense is there are far less videos at the site, but since there is no simple txt listing of videos, I won't take the time and effort to count the videos.
-A high-speed connection is really helpful. A high quality 30 minute video file is about 1.3 GB. To download that file takes 2 hours 30 minutes for a download speed of 150 KB/s. I can't watch the videos in streaming, because they stutter and stop. But I believe most PU members have fast Internet connections so watching a
streaming video would be no problem.
-Search is basic: Can't search by description of model, or by type of sexual activity.
-Need to manually create your own listing for the videos you download. Files are named as 342.wmv, 201.wmv, 199.wmv. Write your own description of model, and whatever else you want to know, with the file name/number.
-Watermark-bottom right corner, larger than needed. |
| Bottom Line: |
Excellent hardcore teen video site.
The videos are crystal clear for hardcore. Great definition, good lighting. There is actually foreplay and cuddling and kissing before the
sex in many scenes. Many of the girls are extremely attractive, and even the male teens are good-looking. Good camera work on the videos. Instead of gonzo sex, you get scenes of guys and girls making out and having sex. And during the sex, instead of just shots of 2 or more bodies banging away, you actually get to look at some lovely girls enjoying a sexual experience.
The lighting is generally ok to good. The skin color and skin tone of the models is generally ok to good.
At most of the Euro teen sites, the models are almost all small breasted, which I like. There are some models here with medium-sized or larger
breasts. But all the breasts appear natural. No fake plastic boobies, almost no tattoos on the female models, very little piercing (some belly
button or ear-rings, but that is minor). It's really nice the girls are so young and clean-looking.
Obviously not all videos are going to have good lighting and good skin tone color and good everything else, but the general level of the videos is very high for a hardcore video site.
Most of the videos are 1 boy-1 girl, which is what I prefer.
There are a few vids with 2 boys-2 girls.
I saw 1 lesbian scene.
I saw 1 female solo masturbation scene.
Models take a less gonzo style approach to sex. There is actually some tenderness and cuddling and stroking before getting down to hardcore sex. No strip tease, but a big improvement over the wham-bam-fuck-the-slut approach.
Female models don't give out with a lot of fake moans and groans. They do make some sounds expressing enjoyment and excitement, but these are more believable, natural sounds instead of the show-boaty expressions of American porn where the females start screaming: "GOD", "FUCK THAT CUNT", "OOOHHHWHEEEE!!!" as soon as the male gets within 25 1/2 inches of their body. (Slight exaggeration, possibly, or maybe not. :))
The male models are young, fresh, mainly good-looking teens. In some cases the boys look as good or better than the females.
The male actors treat the females, in general, with liking and respect.
There is little to no humiliation or abuse of the female models.
Bottom Line: This is a hardcore video site that makes a nice change of pace from gonzo sex.
I am giving the site a score of 90, because it's the one of the better hardcore video sites I've seen (not to be compared to DVD sites like
VideoBox or VideosZ) treating the models with respect, affection, gentle sex, whatever. |

| Pros: |
* Camera work better than 90% of Sites (but see problem below)
* Camera is kept back so you can see all of the girl most of the time, with the occasional close-up (that's the way it should be and most sites do it the opposite way, which is dead-wrong in my opinion)
* Very attractive Russian Girls
* Easy Navigation, list of all models with links to their videos
* Excellent still photo Previews
* Currently more than 470 videos, No DRM
* Video quality very good (but see problem below)
* Fast download speeds, no problem using download manager and downloads almost never "drop"
* Great (high quality) Still Photos with zip files
* Logo on videos acceptable & well placed at extreme lower right. (but could still be smaller)
* Tin Seks, Teen Sex Fusion, Teen Burg, Teen Dorf and other network sites represented on 18_Stream
* At this writing, FULL trial access for 3 days, for five bucks - a very good deal in my opinion
* Videos available in Full HD, or medium or low quality |
| Cons: |
* Very Bad choice of video Codec, Microsoft (Mime Type: video/x-ms-asf) (see comment below)
* Cameraman goofs-off with the camera sometimes (see comment below)
* Most girls have pretty big boobs, which is not my favorite thing. (more petite girls please!!) (but this is a personal preference and does not detract from the site)
* Site uses "SegPay Billing" and their "find transaction" web page does not work, or at lease it didn't work for me. Had to email SegPay to stop the re-bill.
* One strange problem was that none of the Logon links for members worked for me except the one on the "Join Page." There are members' logon links on all of their preview pages, but not a one of them worked except the one on the "Join Page." It worked fine after I learned this trick. (sorry, I had to come back and add this, I forgot to put it in the original post) |
| Bottom Line: |
I highly recommend this site, especially for the Full Trial price of only five bucks, but don't know how long that will last. I would still recommend the site at full price, but of courses not as highly.
I was very impressed with the site, they did nearly everything exactly right. Great previews for the videos and full streaming, great still photos, great videos, some very sexy girls and good download speed. I downloaded dozens of videos and only had the connection drop one time. That's a fantastic connection, their server is very well tuned.
My only two big problems with the site is that, (1) I wish they would have used a more generic video codec. The Microsoft codec doesn't work so well on older systems like mine. You have to use VLC player to make the videos work. And the problem is that when you go to "index" (move the slider bar to advance) the video, there is distortion that can last for several seconds. If you are running the latest software you may not have this problem.
My only other problem with the site is that the cameraman goofs-off with the camera sometimes. No kidding --- in some scenes he rotates the camera left and right at the beginning of the scene for no reason at all. That is really stupid and annoying, the cameraman needs to knock off the goofy stuff and do his job. Thankfully, he doesn't do it too often. But it should NEVER happen. The idea is to keep the camera steady, at the correct distance and focused (which he does for the most part) --- just do that and you are doing your job Mr. Cameraman. Stop all the nonsense, its distracting and makes for a poorer quality video.
Other than that, its a great site. Wish they had more of the very slim girls, but you can't have everything, I guess.
Highly recommend! Get it while its cheap. I'm sure the trial will not last very long. But even at full price, I would have been very happy with the site. |

*Newbie reviews and ratings don't count toward a site's overall score/rank until the user reaches the Rookie status level (5 points). This rule is needed to help prevent fake (or heavily biased) profiles and reviews.
