| Pros: |
- Amazing price at $9.95 p/mo
- Extensive catalog of women
- Solid quality
- Download speeds very good |
| Cons: |
- Very poor search functionality
- Navigation needs improvement
- Needs comment and tagging
- Allow partial scene downloads
- WATCH FOR PRE-CHECKED CROSS SELL!!! |
| Bottom Line: |
I maintain a membership here simply for its history, plus I love the Peter North "Swallow" series.
For $10, who can complain? Seriously, the content is overwhelming. But, not much needs to happen to improve it.
First off, allow keyword searching. You can search pornstars, why not keywords? This is complain #1 from most everybody with this site.
Next, allow user comments. Let users add keywords if its too much trouble. For example, if a girl swallows, don't label it "facial". If there is smoking in a video, tell me. Etc... If the content providers won't expand, the user community will.
Also, improve navigation. Allow downloading from the search results or movie content pages. There are too many clicks.
Finally, how about giving us a money shot download option? I love sites that allow you to download portions, as we all don't want a 600 mb download if we are only interested in the last 2 minutes.
All in all though, a site worth joining. With some minor changes, could be a site I never left. |

| Pros: |
-Excellent price through TBP, $9.95
-Download managers work (DTA)
-No DRM
-Huge archive, 10726 straight scenes across network (1374 are HD but streaming only). 2614 photosets.
-Wide variety of content, from euro ladies to grannies to indian
-Video quality is acceptable, best I saw was 720x400 2000 kbps wmv
-Download speeds are decent, I typically got 1 MB/s using DTA
-Have scene ratings, favorites, and user comments
-Scenes have tags, but not exactly useful for a site this large
-Decent update schedule, about 1 DVD per day it seems |
| Cons: |
-Older content is of variable quality
-Navigation can be a bit annoying, a lot of scenes duplicated across titles. Not sure if they are counting the duplicates in their total.
-No zip downloads of phototsets that I found
-Not sure why the even bother having the multiple sites. I guess it is just for organization
-Few users seem to participate in the comments, or ratings. I have yet to see a comment on any of the scenes.
-Search function consists of pull-down menus with long lists of model names, movie names, etc. Not particularly functional
-No HD video downloads, streaming only
-Largely gonzo porn, although there are some parodies to be found, and some scenes with plots.
-Material can get repetitive, and is almost entirely hardcore. |
| Bottom Line: |
This site is definitely worth visiting, especially for the price, however its main drawback is the same as for many sites of this nature like Videobox and VideosZ, it is big and there is a lot of junk to sort through. Generally I like the content they produce, although I wouldn't suspect many would download more than 1% of it unless they had a boatload of time on their hands.
Overall I consider this a site worth joining at least once, definitely given the price. It would be nice if they made some improvements to navigation and added a more robust search function. It would be nice if more users participated with comments like on Videobox, but I guess there isn't really anything they can do to force the issue.
I generally find the model quality on this site to be slightly above their DVD competitors, but I consider their video quality to be slightly worse. The HD looked nice when streaming, but I am really not one for streaming so didn't watch too much of it. I particularly like that the model type is somewhat more variable than on similar sites, although it isn't super ethnically diverse.
If you haven't been a member before and have time to dig through it all, it is definitely a place to consider if you are into hardcore DVD content. |

| Pros: |
-A network of quality sites. There's 12 listed as premiumm sites and 11 bonus sites
-They have 9912 videos available at the moment, the content format is DVD scenes
-All DVD's are acceptable or good DVD quality
-Very nive quality 720p HD streams also available, topping what a DVD would be able to offer
-Good subsites dedicated to film labels and actors
-Very nice hardcore material over the sites
-Wide range of genres varying from lesbian to vintage to modern hardcore and more fetishy stuff
-Great download speeds of up to 8 megabytes per second without dl manager and more using one
-Very reasonable price
-Quite ok images for a DVD site |
| Cons: |
-Trickle releases of DVD's scene by scene. Hard to tell if it's fully released or not
-Plenty of advertisements on member area
-Pre checked cross sales, although not very hard to detect one
-Regional pricing. 1$ -> 1€. At least you get your TPB discount unlike on Videobox
-Streams don't work too well. Unlike with their downloads, it appears the stream is narrower in bandwidth and you end up viewing buffering screen a lot if you want to skip around a scene
-HD content not downloadable (!!!)
-Content tags are not entirely reliable. A finger in ass for two seconds gives a scene the anal tag and so on
-No zips for images |
| Bottom Line: |
A nice DVD site with a variety of offerings. Some subsites are dedicated to film labels like Devilsfilm, Daringsex and Silverstonedvd while others are official sites of stars like Silvia Saint, Rocco Siffredi and Tera Patrick. These premium sites seem to be actively updating with single scenes. There's also a bunch of bonus sites with less frequent or no updates and some niche content.
Site works well and looks pretty ok if a little busy because of many banner ads. Complete DVD downloads and image zips would have been a nice addition. Full size images especially are behind one click too many.
Then comes the big fail of this site. The HD content they visibly advertise is not available for downloading. While they do not outright lie about this, there's nowhere a mention that unlimited downloads and HD content do not go hand in hand. So you join, you pay and only then you see that you do not get what you thought you would.
This download issue ruins a lot of this site for me, even a DRM would be better. With DRM I could view everything as I please as long as I was a member, with streaming I end up waiting for it to buffer and can view it only in browser. This combined with no zips for images and no complete DVD's leaves me with the bad taste that they really try to make downloading content a chore.
I'd give this site a score of 90 if we could download HD clips. I'd stay a regular subscriber like I do with networks like 21Sextury who allow me to download what I want. Even DRM limited downloads would keep me here but the streaming that essentially breaks my viewing experience often gives me only little and I might end up finding some other site I'd rather to subsribe to. |

*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.
