dracken's Review
Wow - incredibly detailed review, well done. I had to laugh when you commented on the women moaning as they licked the dildos - yep it is just a piece of plastic, you're not fooling anyone ladies! It's a shame they feel the need to do stuff like that as its distracting as it's more comical and real and it detracts from the whole scene.
I think a lot of stuff is done in porn just because that's the way it's always been done but few sites seem to ask their customers if this is what they actually want!
Still, sounds like a good site apart from that and congratulations on a superb quality review!

I'm amazed a huge and well-known company like Hustler has such basic technical issues and sloppy labelling on their website - much smaller companies manage to do it much better without their resources!
Really odd.
Excellent review.

Welcome to the site. It's good to see someone who is into both male and female, so I hope you'll stick around!
Your review could do with a little more detail, but I hope you'll stay.

Good for you - if we're serious about sites not messing us around like this we need to vote with our credit cards! I admit I sometimes join a site anyway if I think it's hot, but I do try not to, and I'm getting tougher lately.
The porn industry needs to start treating its paying customers better, especially as they keep complaining about how tough it is for them now - how about treating the people who do actually pay for your product better, huh?!

Thanks dude and welcome to the site! Always great to have users of gay sites here, as we're pretty thin on the ground.
I hope you check out the site and stick around - maybe write some reviews of your own?

Hi Adam, many thanks for your comprehensive reply... I appreciate it very much and I am glad you're taking some of my suggestions on board.
I did state that I would hsve given the site a much higher rating but I felt that your site tour is misleading, and I still do; it's not something you've addressed specifically except to say that you can't offer all of the videos for downloads or the site would be economic.
On reflection I do accept that - I understand you have to make a profit. However, your preview simply states "unlimited downloads" - I accept that this means you don't place a limit on how many scenes can be be downloaded per month. However, it simply isn't clear before you join the site that many of the videos are not downloadable to keep. If you would say in the preview that only selected DVDs can be downloaded, then nobody will be surprised when they join.
Videobox Men, of which I am a member and joined before your site, offers all of its videos for download without exception and so with yours being a similar type of site and with no indication to the contrary, I assumed your policy was the same. As you say your other site men.com can offer all their videos for download, so if that one of your sites can offer it, why can't Juicy Boys?
Had the made the policy clear I would have known and could have made an informed decision about whether to join or not, this was my main concern.
I did not realise that I could still access purchased videos after my subscription was over - I am very happy to hear I can but again this is not made clear and it's not the standard way such sites operate - usually once your membership runs out you can't access the site.
I also rated the site down due to the disapponting chat facility which as you see from my review, was unreliable. There is a notice on your site acknowledging this and suggesting contact via an international phone number which would be prohibitively expensive to call.
I did try and rate your site fairly - I pointed out that I initially felt like giving you an awful review and a low rating but decided to wait and explore it first which improved my opinion somewhat - and I have listed the positive points. I've also explained that but for the problems outlined, I'd have given you an extremely high mark, so I do give you credit where it's due and give people enough information to make up their own minds.
Thank you for your reply though - if you could make the changes suggested and make it clearer in your preview what you do and do not get, I would be happy to amend my review and would consider re-subscribing.

| Status: |
Current Member for less than 1 month (at the time of review).
|
| Pros: |
+ Price is reasonable, and you can get it down further - see full review
+ A wide selection of videos, mostly high-quality and from good studios
+ Some HD content
+ Good choice of download formats - WMV, and MP4 in regular and "pocket" size for iPods etc.
+ Therefore Mac-friendly
+ No DRM |
| Cons: |
- Misleading tour/preview pages
- All HD videos are streaming-only with no non-HD alternative to download
- Some videos are "premium" videos only available if you purchase them seperately, at very uncompetitive prices - and even then you don't keep em!
- Search reviews can't filter out premium or HD content, so you can't search for stuff that is free and downloadable - leads to disappointments
- No refunds if you were misled by their site tour
- Support is flaky and unreliable
- Some downloads are mislabelled - what they say is the whole DVD is in fact only one scene, so you have to download scene-by-scene if you want the full DVD. |
| Bottom Line: |
JuicyBoys should have been a wonderful site, and if it didn't have some disappointing policies which they are not up-front about, I'd score it 95. As it is those policies knock them down to 79, and the fact they aren't 100% upfront about them knocks them down to 69.
The content looked really hot and I was promised unlimited downloads for a very reasonable $24.95 a month. Then I realised if you click away from the sign-up screen (you might have to do this a few times) it'll pop up and offer it for only $19.95.
At that price I couldn't refuse so I grabbed it. My bank rejected the transaction on security grounds (often happens, mainly because I'm outside the USA but paying in US dollars). However, unlike any other site I'd seen, I got a message of apology and an offer to have it for $14.95 plus "10 free credits" if I tried again! As I'd done the security call with my bank I knew it would work if I did it again and sure enough I now had access for $14.95! Awesome!
Now I knew from TBP that HD content was not downloadable and that some videos were premium only. What I don't feel TBP made clear enough (and I will be commenting on that on their site) is that when they say HD isn't downloadable, they don't mean you can download a non-HD version but only stream HD. They mean a good portion of the videos, including entire studios collections, is HD only. So it's streaming-only for those - no non-HD download option.
Also the premium videos, whilst in a seperate area, still show up in searches so if you do a search for uniforms, say, and see a video which looks really hot, you then realise it's premium. The prices seem about the same as you'd pay to buy the DVD, yet this isn't download to keep - it just "unlocks" them for you to watch streaming-only!
As HD content comes up in all searches too, you're constantly coming across hot videos you either can't watch at all, or can only stream. No way of filtering your results to only inclusive, downloadable movies sadly.
I was really angry about this and it seemed every video I tried had no download option. This is not what I expected when they promised "unlimited downloads" and didn't say anywhere in the preview or tour that this applied to selected videos only.
So I went onto the support live-chat feature. It warned that it wasn't working 100% at the moment and suggested dialling an international phone number instead - er no thank you, I have my phone bill to think of!
I got connected once, explained my complaint and they immediately offered to transfer my membership to man.com, which had 100% unlimited downloads. I declined, and asked why they didn't make it clear in their preview that this site didn't offer that. That wasn't answered, and they just told me I'd have to go to a different chat window if I wanted a refund. Then I got cut off. I tried a second window, and got cut off immediately.
Third window I got through again. They again offered to transfer my membership, immediately, so it's obviously a common complaint. They said some studios or actors did not allow them to offer downloads. I said I understood that but they didn't make it clear in their preview. I declined a transfer and said, as I had just joined and they could see I haven't downloaded anything, and as I felt misled, could I please cancel my membership and give me a refund. They said I could cancel my membership, but no refunds. My only option was to cancel future rebills, but I was stuck with my months membership.
I wasn't happy and asked them to cancel my membership which they did instantly - a cancellation e-mail arrived seconds after I asked them to do it.
At this point I was all ready to write a stinking PU review and give them a really low score, but as I try to be fair I figured angry as I was I might as well explore the site I was stuck with - and $14.95 meant it wasn't so bad, even though it was the principle more than the money that bothered me.
And I admit that once you accept the limitations, which are big ones, this is still a good-value site. Even at $24.95 it would be good value because you do get a good selection of videos and probably half of them can be downloaded. The resoltion isn't great at 640 x 480 but you can choose WMV or MP4 and they downloaded quickly, though the "whole DVD" option only downloads the first scene so you have to do it manually. The streaming "HD" is 1280x720.
Some of the content is older and not such good quality, but there's a fair amount of newer stuff from decent studios.
Overall it's worth joining for a month at the $19.95 price, but be prepared for disappointment - when you do a search remember half the videos that come up can either be streamed only, cost extra and in some cases both.
I'll download as much as I can from the downloadable content and I'll get value for my $14.95, but I don't deal with sites that mislead me and then refuse to refund my money so I won't join their site or any other in their network again. |

Sounds like a classically British site! We Brits have such a sense of humour we often find it difficult to take anything seriously - including sex! I notice a lot of British porn has a slight "comedy" element!

Outrageous! This is the thing I hate about the industry, they change stuff on you all the time.
You might have some recourse though - if the site users an independent biller, then complain to them - explain that when you joined the site it advertised itself as offering downloads and you joined on that basis. It is no longer offering what you paid for, and you want a refund.
It's worth a try, and thanks for letting us know about the problem as it alerts other users - if enough people protest and leave or stop joining, they may discover they can't treat their customers in this way.
Excellent warning review - I hope to see more from you and have added you to my trust list. Welcome to PU, and may your future porn experiences be better than this one!

Fascinating review - not an niche I am very interested in but I do understand the frustration of finding a site which seems to cater to your niche only to find the owners obviously don't really understand it and are just putting in a token nod to it with standard porn.

Sounds like, unusually for a website, it might actually be better value to buy DVDs with the money you'd spent on this site. Sounds like a real rip-off so good warning to stop others being ripped off - a well-written review too. Let us know what CCBill say - I've always been curious as to whether you'd be allowed to get a refund if you notified them right away that the site was poor quality.
