For me, it is always better to have exclusive content than not. However, I understand that can be difficult for a large website. My biggest issue with "exclusive content" is websites that advertise their videos as exclusive, but fail to deliver. Unfortunately, even TBP reviews don't always help in that case because they can only relay the website's claim, but not verify it.
I agree. I first learned to surf porn on DeluxePass. However, since I found Videobox and Pornstar XS, I can't justify spending twice the amount for Deluxe Pass.
I just rejoined PornstarXS and was pleasantly surprised to see that the 2 daily DVD updates are posted at the same time. (Before, the 2 updates occurred 1 in the morning, 1 in the evening.) This is in comparison to VideoBox's 5 hours between movies update schedule. While it is fewer DVD's per day, I like the fact that I only have to visit once a day to get all of that day's updates instead of having to keep coming back. Since neither of these sites is ad-driven, I don't see the point in getting repeat traffic. Kudos to PXS.

Pros:
- A ton of anime and manga content
- Features 300 movies
- Includes almost 1700 mangas
- Over 40 anime games
- Great price for so much content
- No DRM on movie files
- Weekly updates
- Good download speeds (around 600KB/sec) and compatible with download managers
- Easy navigation
Cons:
- Movies and mangas are updated separately
- Movies come in many different file formats and may not be compatible with your favorite media player
Bottom Line:
I'm not a huge anime fan, but I joined this site on account of Schnitzel's review and the low price. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of content given that they are only charging $9.50/month. I joined primarily for the anime movies that were available. I especially liked that almost all of the movies were subtitled in English. With 300 movies, it is a really good thing that the site worked with my download manager.
There were a couple minor drawbacks to the movies section. The movies seem to have been collected from sources all over the internet and feature watermarks for different hentai websites. Additionally, the different movies were encoded in many different formats, like Ogg, Matroska, WMV, and DivX. Each movie was only available in 1 format, but the formats differed between movies. Most of these file formats require additional codecs to be installed on your computer. I was able to get all of them working in Media Player Classic.
While I subscribed primarily for the movies, I was amazed at the number of manga comics that were available on the website. I guess that I shouldn't be that surprised since they are really just big photosets, but the number of titles available was great. Unfortunately, I cannot read Japanese, so the mangas were of less interest to me.
Overall, given the price and quality of content, it is easy to recommend hSiren. The value would be even higher for someone who can read or understand Japanese. Either way, it is a great value.
This site should also be categorized as European sex. From the preview, I didn't see a single non-European model. I'm not complaining, but it does change the landscape of the site when it doesn't include lots of siliconed or natural American girls.
While I prefer TBP's 4-person review style, I also visit Rabbit's Reviews because they tend to be shorter and to the point. Plus, they also have deals for cheaper website memberships.
My scoring criteria takes price into account. However, that is only one component. As I have said before, I think that the ultimate site would have great quality and a low price. Having said that, I don't really ease up on lower priced sites because I expect them to still meet certain quality and quantity standards.
From a porn viewer/fan perspective, I feel less ripped off if a site is of poor quality, but the price is low.
It seems like a lot of studio sites are the ones holding on to DRM. I think that they are just suckering in the people who don't read reviews like TBP or PU before joining. (Not to mention the price.) What a shame!
I ran out of room in my review, but I wanted to comment on the network updates and I got the idea to use the site comments from nygiants03:
The benefit of daily network updates is muted by the fact that photosets and videos are updated separately and count as two updates. Even worse, there are periods of many days with no video updates, only picture updates. If pics and vids are going to count as 2 updates, they should at least alternate days.

Pros:
- A network with around 10 hardcore sites
- Features younger models and porn starlets
- Exclusive content from Kick Ass Pictures studio
- Over 700 videos
- Newer videos feature high quality 640x480 resolution
- Great price with TBP discount
- No DRM on movie files
- Daily network updates
- Excellent download speeds (around 1MB/sec) and compatible with download managers
- Navigation greatly improved since site redesign
Cons:
- Pics and videos are updated separately and count as 2 updates; up to 7 days in a row of only pic updates
- There is no set update schedule for individual sites
- Some links for one network site's "Top Movies" lead to another network site
- Some network sites are still very small, like the MILF site
- Older videos are low quality (320x240) and very blocky
Bottom Line:
I was pleasantly surprised by this network following my prior experiences with networks that have duplicated content or abandoned sites. This network has around 12 sites and it appears that all are actively updating. Also, there is a new network update everyday.
I also liked the fact that videos are download manager compatible and do not contain DRM. For newer scenes, the entire scene can be downloaded in one part at very good resolution. For older vids, they are broken in parts and are only available at lower resolution. I would really like to see the network re-upload those older scenes at the new resolution and scene length.
Given prior comments about navigation, I was a little worried, but the site re-design has helped navigation tremendously. All of the sites are linked to tabs at the top of the page. From there, movies and photos are split up and then presented in the order that they were uploaded. Since the older scenes are broken in parts, I suggest starting with the last page and moving backward to get the scenes in order. My only other navigation complaint is that some links lead to other network sites.
Given the large volume of content and the very good price with the TBP discount, I heartily recommend the Kick Ass Pass for hardcore porn seekers.
While I believe that CCBill is the best of the credit card transaction companies, I won't exclude sites that use other services, such as Paycom. However, before I join any site that is not CCBill, I make sure that I have a URL for their customer support page as well as clear instructions for how to cancel my subscription. If I am not comfortable, like if the support sites looks put together by a 4-year old, then I won't risk my credit card number.
A quick question: does anyone have experience using those 1-time credit card numbers from Mastercard or Visa? I've thought about using those for my subscriptions but I haven't tried it yet. Let me know what you think.

Pros:
- Unique, exclusive scenes of pussy pumping.
- Newer videos are hi quality (640x480) wmv files
- All scenes are downloadable in one part
- About 45 scenes in total
- No DRM
- TBP Discount
- Access to Kick Ass Pass network (10+ sites)
- Photo galleries
Cons:
- Older videos are only 320x240 resolution
Bottom Line:
I had only seen one movie with a pussy pump before joining this site. However, this site features young models using pumps to engorge their lower lips. My understanding is that the added bloodflow to the area is supposed to increase sensitivity and enjoyment. Based on these videos, that appears to be true.
The site can almost be divided into newer and older videos. The newer vids are available in hi quality wmv downloads. The older vids are only available as lower quality downloads. File sizes and picture quality differences are noticeable. The older vids are not unwatchable, but they do leave a lot to be desired.
While this fetish doesn't directly appeal to me, I won't disparage it, either. It is definitely a unique sex enhancer. Given the exclusive content, the network access, and the TBP discount, this site is a pretty good bargain. If this fetish interests you, I would easily recommend this site.
Thanks for taking the time to explain what went wrong. I read your initial review, but didn't see the revision. I'll take a look at the new version. Thanks again.
I'll spend an hour or two checking my memberships for any updates or looking at free TGP sites. If I just got a new membership, it could be significantly more.
I was a member of this network earlier this year. Offering over 25 sites for the price of 1 sounds like a really good deal. Unfortunately, even paying $10 is a waste for this network. Most of the network sites no longer update and video quality for each site is all over the place. I was really disappointed in this network.

Pros:
- Exclusive scenes from Kick Ass Pictures Teen Power series
- Around 35 scenes in total
- About 75% of the scenes are hi quality (640x480) wmv files
- All scenes are downloadable in one part
- No DRM on any content
- TBP Discount
- Access to Kick Ass Pass network (10+ sites)
- Photo galleries
Cons:
- Older videos (about 25%) are only 320x240 resolution
- Updates are irregular; network updates daily, but no set schedule for any particular site
Bottom Line:
This teen site has very little to set it apart from the thousands (millions?) of teen movie sites out there. The content IS exclusive to Kick Ass Pictures, but the scenes and setups (warehouse, bedroom, principal's office, etc.) are familiar to anyone who has watched teen porn. Some of the models are deliciously cute, like Lexi Belle, while others are known porn commodities, like Cassie Young or Roxxxy Rush.
My biggest issues with the site are lack of content and poor quality on some vids. First, there are only about 35 scenes on the site. It also feels like it takes forever for the site to update and add more movies. Since daily updates are for the network, there is no way to know when the next teen movie will be added. Also, the drop-off in quality is noticeable and abrupt. You go from very decent quality vids to highly compressed, low resolution movies. It is also unfortunate that the older movies contain some of the more attractive girls on the entire site.
All in all, there is very little which sets this site apart. The score was boosted significantly by the fact that the site has no DRM, the TBP discount price, and access to the rest of the Kick Ass Pass network. With a network membership, it makes sense to visit this site. However, don't subscribe just for this teen content. You will be disappointed.
Thanks for the enlightening review. I just cancelled my VideoBox membership and was looking to join a new DVD site, including VideosZ. After your bad experience, I will probably try a different site. Thanks.

Pros:
- Niche site for eyeglass fetish features very attractive pornstars
- All scenes are downloadable in one part
- No DRM
- TBP Discount
- Access to Kick Ass Pass network (10+ sites)
- Fast downloads (around 1.5MB/sec)
Cons:
- Only 13 scenes
- All videos are only low quality (320x240) wmv
- Only 4 photosets
- Models in the photosets do not have a video and none of the video models have photosets: frustrating
- Glasses are obviously fake as they are the same few sets of frames in all of the movies
Bottom Line:
As a glasses wearing man, I have always found girls with glasses to be really cute. This site helps to spread my vision by putting fake or prop glasses on some very attractive porn starlets. These scenes are exclusively shot by Kick Ass Pictures for its "Specs Appeal" DVD series and are reposted online.
Having said that, this site suffers from a few issues: first, it is way too small. I know that the Specs Appeal video series lasted for more than 13 scenes, so I am waiting for more of those scenes to become available. Second, all of the scenes currently available are only 320x240 and are almost unwatchable at full-screen size. Third, I know that this theme must be more difficult to cast, but it would be nice if the girls wore different glasses in the scenes. I'm sure that the studio could afford to buy a bunch of faux fashion frames and let the actresses wear different pairs rather than recycle the same few sets every time.
While I didn't take any points off for the 3rd complaint, the small collection size and the less-than-stellar video quality do count against the site's score. At this time, I can only recommend this site as part of the Kick Ass Pass network. On its own, this site is a poor value. However, combined with the rest of the network, it is a nice component.
Behind Kink is now free to registered users. Registration is also free.
This site has a lot of behind-the-scenes videos and news about the Kink.com sites, like Fucking Machines and Sex and Submission. If you like their sites, I recommend that you check it out, especially since it is now gratis.
Thanks for responding. After going through both sites' previews, I kind of came to the same conclusion. I am a bit infatuated with Chanta, though, so I will probably join that site first. Thanks again.

Pros:
- Exclusive scenes from Kick Ass Pictures
- All videos are available as m4v files formatted for iPods
- All scenes are downloadable in one part
- Over 370 scenes! All new scenes added to the Kick Ass Pass network are also added to P4P
- No DRM
- TBP Discount
- Access to Kick Ass Pass network (10+ sites)
- iPod formatted photos galleries (with zip file option)
Cons:
- Content is duplicative of the rest of the Kick Ass Pass network. There is no unique content solely for this site
- When browsing scenes in P4P, the original Kick Ass Pass site name is removed, so you can't be sure what type of content the scene contains, particularly for the older movies
Bottom Line:
While I don't own an iPod (I refuse to get locked into iTunes), I can see how this site would be really useful. With the video capabilities of the later generations of iPod, it makes sense to put porn on it. There are times when it would be much easier to conceal an iPod's screen from peeping eyes than it would to mask a laptop or desktop monitor. There's also the advantage of not having to use the company laptop or ordering PPV when on business trips.
This site manages to fill this niche very well. It appears that most of the Kick Ass Pass network content is available formatted for iPods. Unfortunately, that means that there is no unique content just for P4P, but that it makes the content on the rest of the network more accessible. These are also complete scenes, not just clips. This does mean that file sizes are over 100MB per file, something to think about when it comes to download times and storage space on your portable.
It is a very unique site that fills a new niche and I am impressed with the ingenuity. The effort to reformat all of these movies for the iPod also impresses me. Therefore, I would recommend this site to all iPod users who would like to take some adult entertainment on the road.

Pros:
- Exclusive scenes of interracial creampies
- All videos are hi quality (640x480) wmv files
- All scenes are downloadable in one part
- No DRM
- TBP Discount
- Access to Kick Ass Pass network (10+ sites)
- Fast downloads (around 1.5MB/sec)
Cons:
- Only 8 scenes
- Only 1 photoset
- Model in the photoset does not have a video and none of the video models have photosets
Bottom Line:
I don't really have an opinion on interracial sex scenes. They don't make it more exciting nor do they repulse me. However, I do like creampies, so this site caters to that interest.
The site features all newer movies that have good quality and attractive models. A few that I downloaded include Lexi Bardot, Alexa Lynn, and Annette Schwarz. Unfortunately, this site is very small. There are only 8 scenes and 1 photoset available. It appears that these few scenes were shot by Kick Ass Pictures for its "Inseminated by 2 Black Men" DVD series and are posted online. Once past the welcome page, the site even calls itself "Inseminated by 2 Black Men."
The scenes that I downloaded were very good and I look forward to seeing this site grow. Until then, I can only give it a recommendation as part of the Kick Ass Pass network. On the other hand, the site (and network) does come with a very attractive price when using the TBP discount, so you could join just to check it out. Bottom Line: this site needs growth and until it does, I can only give it a tepid recommendation.
