Pros:
The best picture quality, bar none!
Zip format available
As of Dec 09, you get 10 sites for the price of 1
Gorgeous and pretty models
No picture touch-up, no digital airbrush as far as I can see, which is good
Cons:
Average video quality
Too many duplicates with other ddf sites
Possible fake moneyshot with some pictures
User Interface could be better
Older pics have lower quality
Bottom Line:
I have been surfing paid porno sites for the past 9 years and I could say with confidence that ddfprod has the best picture quality, bar none. There may be other sites with equal or slightly better pic quality but they tend to focus on a particular niche. With ddfprod, you get more diversity.
By looking at the pics, you know that they are taken by a professional photographer and not an amateur. Denys Defrancesco did an excellent job with his site. Pic dimension is quite large (1600x1000) or larger, very sharp, very detail, vibrant colors with just enough exposure taken at the right angle. Not once have I seen pics that are out of focus or poorly taken. And if you take a look at the tag of the pics with Windows Vista, you would find out that he used a professional NIKON camera which costs $2000 to $3000. He is truly a professional photographer who wouldn't mind spending big bucks for his work.
Having said that, the video quality has much less to be desired. The dimension may be big but they are not very sharp. I would say the quality is lower than DVD but better than VCD. If it weren't for the poor video quality, I would give it a 10. Also, I have a suspicion that some pics have fake moneyshot, but I could be wrong.
Beware that there are some duplicates shared between sites. In fact, if your time is limited, download pics from 1byday.com and handsonhardcore.com and you probably cover 70 to 80 percent of the whole 10 sites. Do this especially if you are not into leg or bondage fetish and want newer pics.
If you have a problem with the sites, their tech support by email is superb. I got my answers within 1 business day.
I finished my 3-month non renewable subscription and I would come back once they have better video quality.
Overall, this is excellent. I don't know any other hardcore sites that could match its picture quality. Go ahead and sign-up!

Pros:
-Dudes below have done all the stats work so I'll keep it more descriptive
-Excellent high quality
-Gorgeous babes and not always the run of the mill 'known' ones
-Good service
-Great fetish concentration
-Great sets
-Top quality direction and editing
-Not scared to show babes with a touch of bush...thank fuk!
-Stockings! About fukin time
-European and the odd ethnic babe
-Good multi format options
-No broken links
Cons:
-Slow updates
-Need more niche content
-Need more variety as the sets and focus can be a touch formulaic
-Need many more ethnic babes
-Price needs to be a bit more competitive as competition is becoming fierce
-Dudes need to spark up their game a touch
-Regional damn pricing
Bottom Line:
There is very little to fault with this site.
The babes are all boner inducing.
The dudes can be a touch 'mechanical' in their rumping approach, but hey, I probably would be too.
The hi res content and good download speeds make this a standard setter and there are only a handful of sites that incorporate this approach. The smaller volume sites really need to start getting their act together in terms of resolution. The days of looking at a clip with one eye whilst said eye is being cleaned with a brillo pad are over.
With more regular updates and variety in terms of babe selection this site could be the leader in it's class.
There aren't many foot fetish sites out there and the odd one that offers some footy usually affords us the zelda type of 800 kilo babe with torn fishnets. Might be boner inducing for some but I like attractive women in stockings getting lengthed in a nice or theme based setting.
If updates and more variety is introduced into this porn equation then the price is a steal. Currently, and the reason I didn't moisten the score up a tad, the price is a little steep, particularly for us UK dudes. I must say I really am getting fed up with all these regional pricings.
Either way, this site is a winner and if they would do another set with Lulu and Jade Sin then I would join in a heartbeat, or bonebeat if you may.

Pros:
- high quality HC content.
- mostly very attractive, eastern European girls.
- different download formats, qualities and fast download speed (with broadband connection).
- full scene downloads, no download limit, no DRM.
- very good video quality for the most scenes.
- very nice high quality Photosets from every. scene (you can download the whole set in one zip file).
- babes index.
- very professional overall (camerawork, Photosets, girls styling, site layout/design etc. etc.).
Cons:
-some older movies are only downloadable as segmented “part-files”.
-older movies are not so very good quality /fuzzy sometimes (allthough more than enough high quality scenes to see).
-sometimes to much “cutting” in my opinion.
Bottom Line:
Updates are frequent, but sometimes "only" remastered older scenes (no problem for me, because I joined the first time).
I liked the glamour-factor (girl`s styling) a lot, but this is matter of taste I guess.
The best quality downloads are HUGE (average about 700MB, but more than 1 GB on some scenes). I recommend to keep a big harddisk ready.
My opinion:
If you are into Hardcore - this is Highly recommended.

Pros:
1. Great quality HDV (>4000K) videos with various formats and hi-res photo-sets with no DRM - can be downloaded with my favourite DL manager and download speeds are good (>200KB/s on my 2MBit ADSL connection).
2. Great mix of gorgeous European girls doing all sorts of things, some wearing very nice lingerie/stockings.
3. Good variety of hardcore scenes, anal, DP, gang-bang, 2-on-1, all the usual positions and some great ATM, cum-shots and cream-pie.
4. Non-member site tour allows you to browse the model directory and see their scenes.
5. Good site navigation.
6. Can send feedback about what you'd like to see in future releases.
Cons:
1. Photo-sets aren't always the same as the videos, but that's a minor gripe.
2. The HDV videos require a pretty powerful PC to view so you might need to upgrade your system.
3. Many of the scenes are a bit samey but then again, you might like that - I did, after all, it is plainly a hardcore site. It certainly doesn't detract from this site's appeal.
4. Some of the latest video content has been regurgitated from older content - more on this below.
5. Content is not all exclusive - some content is shared with "1 By Day" and other DDF partner sites.
Bottom Line:
For me, an excellent site that's well worth the money. It is what it says it is - a hardcore site with very little girl-on-girl action, mostly guys fucking girls and cumming on or in them.
Since my last review it has improved somewhat, with more single hi-def video clips and less of the smaller clips which made up the older content.
One thing I did notice (and that seemed a bit crafty) is that new content is actually old content "refactored" into single hi-def video clips.
I last visited this site over 2 years ago and it has improved, so I've increased my previous 95 score to 97. I'm a real brunette and stockings fan so if I saw more of that I'd be scoring this site 99.
DDF Productions - take note, and keep up the great work.

Pros:
- Professional photography
- Over 500 hardcore scenes (all have pics and vids)
- High rez downloads for newer postings (up to 1800 pixels at a rate over 1 meg per second) and no DRM
- High rez pics (up to 2000 pixels but most at 1600) with zip available
- Only hardcore sex divided into 7 categories
- Model index and generally good navigation
- Good customer support
Cons:
- Some content recycled through other DDF sites
- Older content is only average quality (standard sized .wmv downloads available only in sections and pics only at 800 x 600)
- Pics come up in a separate window
- No bonus content
- Download speeds can vary
Bottom Line:
I am a big fan of Deny DeFranco and his DDF sites (1ByDay, Hotlegsandfeet) but had never joined here mostly due to a high fee. I noticed that the site is now $30 month and tried it.
First, the site is what it says. No solo or lesbian sets, everything is m/f sex in 7 categories.
The professionalism is first rate. No out of focus pics or shakey videos. The models are almost all European.
The newer sets, about 1/3, have the high quality download options in several download formats (wmv, dvx). The oldest material, about 1/3 again, can only be dowloaded in sections and only display around 440 x 250. I noticed that download speeds varied depending on the time of day but speeds were generally good.
The pics are very good with most being at 1600 pixels with S, M, and L options available. Most sets have around 120 pics. The newest pics in their largest size also have the actual photographic data from the shoot stored in them if you're into that.
My only disappointment with the site was that a fair number of sets here also appear on other DDF sites. One of the recent updates (site updates about 2 - 3 times a week) was a set I've had for years. If you're already a frequent visitor to the other DDF sites you might want to consider if you want to join here.
This is a great site if you like nonreality based hardcore. The only thing that could really be better would be more frequent updates and more original content. Overall, well worth the money
*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.
I'm a little concerned about DDF update policies, from what people have been saying as of late (new owners etc).
I used to be a member of Hot Legs and Feet and Hands on Hardcore, but after downloading their sites in a few days I found really wanting for updates.
Pics come in first and then you have to wait to get the vid version.
Now, are they updating every day or week or when Haley's Comet comes round next?
I need to know because I would like to rejoin but am worried that after I sell my lung on Ebay and fund the sub I will be left with about 10 scenes to download.
Any info would be really welcomed, especially if Raven fancies having a go at answering in human terms as opposed to the standard marketing speak 'We at DDF strive to attain the highest....blah blah'.
This is what handsonhardcore support sent me 7 days ago, as I wasn't able to browse the site, as i can't right now:
Hi,
Thank you for your email.
However, our technical support is doing an un-scheduled maintenance at this time. Please try to check again the site after few hours.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Regards,
Amanda, DDF Productions.
Still I can't browse the site, server is almost always down, not to mention the updates, DDF network is still recycling older material as new and posting the same scenes on others DDF sites. Join page works sweet though what a combination.
All said, more than 30 bucks went up in smoke.
Congrats DDF network, you were great until an year ago.
I posted a review about a month ago on this site and my membership recently expired. I was a little miffed at the end since the site was recycling sets already posted there by listing them in new categories and calling them updates. I noticed the site had some duplicates but did not mention them in my prior review. I hope this is not a sign of things to come
I joined Hands on Hardcore as a result of the 2-for-1 deal. When I first joined, I noticed decent download speeds around 600-700 KB/sec. Unfortunately, those speeds have dropped off considerably. I now get download speeds of less than 200 KB/sec. Since I am downloading the hi-def movies, that means a single movie can take over an hour to download.
Only just found this deal today so thought I'd join, offer end on 31st December so hurry if you are interested in their Christmas offer. Still haven't decided to go with the massive 1by-day.com as well as hardsonhardcore or the houseoftaboo site , just for something a little different, I dunno yet, gives you 14 days to decide, so might as well have hands on hardcore downloading in first 14 days and get my free 30 days after for my extra site.
I was browsing through my old Hands On Hardcore collection and just noticed a really interesting detail I thought I'd share. Their maximum resolution photos are the original photos edited for posting. This means all of the extra information that the camera records about how and when the photo was taken is still in the file. If you look in the advanced properties of the image files you'll find boat-loads of info.
For example, a set posted on 12/18/2006 with Jennifer Love was shot on 11/14/2006 at 8:48 pm on a Nikon D2X at ISO-100 at 1/100 of a second and F/10 f-stop and manually set exposure and flash set without strobe return. Also, the last shot in the set was taken at 10:52pm and everything was edited on Photoshop CS. It has been a few months since I was a member, but my guess is they still process their maximum res photos this way. As an amateur photographer I was psyched to see this information was available. It goes to show that Nikon may not be just the ultimate Wedding cameras - perhaps they are also the ultimate Porn cameras! lol
Also - I'll definitely be returning to Hands on Hardcore - a great site that has wonderful customer support. The photography is amazingly crisp and well lit and the video is very much HD. Beautiful women, serious hardcore and a company that cares about its customers - good stuff. I'll give a full review after I've rejoined for a bit.
I was checking this site out, and had planned to join it, especially with the new lower price.
I have one question though. Just from glancing the preview that the site offers, I see a video that is also on or was on 1byday. It is the Sandra Shine 3-way.
Don't get me wrong here, I know all DDF sites are great, but I'm just curious to know if most of the videos on HOH are available elsewhere since 1byday does have the weekly High Quality hardcore clip. I'm asking because I have about 60 GB of DDF from 1byday. Spencer's review on TBP says all-exclusive. I have no reason to believe he would mislead with his review, plus the review is older and maybe the non-exclusive came after he wrote the review. Just looking for some clarification on it.
This is a great site - hot European girls, good navigation, quality vids - but what's most entertaining is that they have these long back stories about each episode. They've got to be at least 200-300 words each, usually written from the girl's perspective, going on in incredible detail about how much she supposedly loved the action. It's kind of surreal to imagine some guy in Budapest whose job it is to write those things ...
