| Bottom Line: |
I’ve got mixed feelings about this network. On one hand, its large, with over 1800 scenes spread over 37 sites covering the usual porn niches of teens, cougars, lesbians, MILFs (if those differ from cougars… I don’t know), big dicks and interracial. They also have some relatively rare sites with group sex in a party setting. Probably the only major site niche they’re missing is anal, but I promise I didn’t let that glaring oversight affect my score or review. Another advantage to this network is that it does offer exclusive scenes with some of the best known porn models. If you’re looking to add new scenes of your favourite starlets you should consider a membership here.
On the other hand, updates are few and far between for such a large network, and many of the sites don’t update at all. Because the scenes aren’t dated in any usable way I can’t really provide more definitive information, but it appears that only ten sites are regularly updating, with another four that may be occasionally updating. By ‘regularly updating’ though, I don’t mean that it is regular as in a set schedule. As of the date of this review the last update was nine days ago. The network updates by adding one scene to the network at a time. So if you join the network for a specific site you may find that site doesn’t update or doesn’t post an update for the month you’re there.
As porn, this is just standard-fare stuff. That isn’t meant to be an accolade or a criticism, it is a simple fact. On most of the sites the porn looks just like the porn on other similar networks. The production values are up to normal standards. The network’s production values don’t fail it, but neither do they set it apart.
The network’s main page shows you the most recent six updates. This is the only place where there is an upload date associated with a scene. From there you can go into the individual sites or search for pornstars. I didn’t find the search function to be especially useful, but there is a pull-down menu of tags and that works well. Be advised that the tag menu works on individual sites too, so if you have the After Class Adventures site up and use the ‘anal’ tag it will sort just that site by anal. Using the search function to do that will give all the anal scenes on the network even though you’re just on one site.
Opening a scene brings you to a separate page. My biggest complaint is that the scene starts downloading the streaming video immediately and automatically. I find this to be a big bandwidth hog that I don’t want. To the network’s credit though, the scene doesn’t start to play automatically. At this page you can stream or download the video. I’ve criticized sites in past reviews for only offering mp4s since I prefer WMVs, so it’s only fair that I criticize this network for only offering WMVs. Customers should have a choice.
An issue with the downloaded scenes is that they are only available in one resolution. In some cases, presumably with older uploads (remember, no date info is available) the resolution is 320x240 at 906kb/s. These are almost unwatchable by 2012 standards. Newer files come in at 1280x720 at 3100kb/s. Both resolutions play at 30fps and are in WMV 9. The site really needs to remaster their older stuff and offer a lower resolution option for people who don’t have the bandwidth to download a large file. Apart from the lowest resolution scenes, they look good.
In a comment from last year, insomniacxxx stated that some scenes labeled as HD aren’t. This is still true, but it may be that he and I noticed this on the same scenes. I saw some 320x240 scenes that had the HD logo.
Photos are available for most scenes, as singles and zips. The resolution isn’t bad, but not great, at 945x630.
The network allows download managers and I had download speeds comparable to similar sites.
The site bills internally and doesn’t use a third-party biller.
So would I recommend this site? Without a doubt I definitely would, but I’d make sure that a prospective member realized that it isn’t perfect. A member gets access to a lot of good porn for an excellent price using the TBP/PU discount. I realize this isn’t a glowing review, but it is a decent site that could see some improvements. |

*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.
