I realize that a site like this will be very polarizing for members. Personally, while I am a huge fan of anal-themed sites, and a huge fan of large insertions, I am most certainly NOT a fan of prolapse or "rosebud" porn. That fact that this is a niche with a name is a bit creepy.
Having said that, HKJ is one talented woman. If anyone is interested in seeing her talents at work I'd highly recommend watching her scene in Jay Sin's Anal Acrobats 7. She inserts a dildo that really qualifies her as being fisted (and "armed" if that's a thing!).
Her next feat was something that I wouldn’t have thought possible until I saw it. She inserts mini-basketballs in her ass. They’re about the size of a large orange. Sure, this has been done before. That’s what I was thinking. Until the fourth one went in. Then the fifth. Sixth. Seventh… and finally the eighth. I have never seen anything like this before. There is a photo of her on her preview page where she's laying on her belly and the eight balls are lined up showing the total size of them. It really defies my understanding of human anatomy.
At one point in the scene she inserts several of the balls again and then gets fucked in the ass with the balls in there.
This woman is definitely the new reigning anal queen.
I've been a member of Videoz too and quite like them. They're in my rotation list but just not with the same frequency as VB. They're definitely a great site too. There was another DVD site that I quite liked, though the name escapes me now. It was better than both VB and Videoz but the owner shut it down a couple of years ago.
Thanks for the comments. I agree that when a scene is posted as a compilation the users usually identify that and many even note the difference. In a lot of cases one scene has been edited and runs shorter.
I also agree that it is frustrating that the site gets so many performer's names wrong. But again, the users usually step in and provide the name.
And thanks to everyone else who took the time to reply.

Bottom Line:
Before anyone gets mad at this, being my sixth review of VB, let me just say that I planned this as just a comment and then got carried away.
There isn’t much more that one can say about VB that hasn’t already been said here, but I’ll try. The site offers a virtual porn mega-store with over 12,000 DVDs and the site continues to grow. What’s interesting is that the opinions and ratings here really run the full spectrum. My personal opinion on VB tends to run with those who are big fans. I join VB twice a year and probably will continue to do so as long as the site exists. I rank it high because what it does, it does well.
The site has hundreds of studios on offer and as the site grows they appear to be attracting more. I wish that some of the bigger studios offered more of their titles to VB but a site this size can only continue to grow as it brings sales to studios that need them. Almost any interest can be satisfied here with the only limitation being that as VB relies on DVDs they don’t have some of the more extreme niches since those aren’t usually issued on DVDs. But if it happens to be available on DVD, VB probably has some titles in that genre.
VB continues to offer the DVDs in a variety of ways. Streaming is available and downloads are available in both WMV and MP4 formats. The highest resolution available on most is only 640x480 which is low by today’s standards and those come in at 3300kb/s and 30fps. Only one DVD per day is offered with an HD option.
One thing that I’ve always respected about VB is that they don’t just rely on a few flashy preview pages and then ask for your credit card number. VB lets prospective members see the entire site. I wish other porn sites would follow this model.
VB still offers premium ‘channels’ at additional cost. These are great value if you like those studios and VB still offers a pro-rated price through your first month. If you join in week two of your VB membership you’ll only pay half the price until both sites renew.
While I’m a big VB fan the site isn’t without its flaws. I’ve said this before, and I remain convinced of it: one of VB’s biggest selling points is also one of its biggest flaws, namely the addition of five titles per day. What person would argue against more porn, you might ask? One who prefers quality over quantity. With 12,000+ DVDs on the site no one would dispute that VB is the biggest player in downloadable porn DVDs. But to sustain that growth VB relies to heavily on compilations with re-hashed scenes and on low grade Euro porn. I’ll admit that there is an element of subjectivity in this opinion, but I think I’m also being objective when I say that having the same scene on the site in three or four different titled movies adds nothing. Thankfully VB members usually point out a repost so you can avoid it if you have it. As for the Euro stuff, while I’m not a huge Euro fan I can still recognize that there is a difference between good porn and bad porn. They do have good Euro porn here, but they add a lot of bad stuff too. My recommendation to VB is to drop the five-DVD schedule and concentrate on quality instead. One or two quality DVDs per day would be fine and judging from many of the comments on the VB site many other members would agree with me. (I understand that the compilation issue isn’t VB’s fault since the industry cranks them out, but while they make sense in DVD format, they don’t make sense as a download.)
One minor gripe is that the site doesn’t let you use the same username and password when you rejoin. I’d prefer that when I join with the same email I’m given my usual name and password.
The most polarizing aspect of VB seems to be the VB3 interface. My opinion of VB3 is that it appears to be something dreamed up by the marketing people to lure in new members who are attracted to bright shiny things. If that works, that’s great, because obviously VB needs members to continue to operate. It also appears that the technical people have some clout because the old site is still available and still fully functional. Whenever I go to VB the first link I click on is to go to the old site. I hope that option remains available, and I hope that if enough people also vote for the old site with a mouse click that the marketing exercise that is VB3 will be shelved.
Recently, other PU members have reported having low download speeds and even having downloads stop. I experienced none of that and Free Download Manager downloaded everything at the highest supported speed and never once had a broken link or a failed download. It may be that whatever caused that is now fixed.
The bottom line for me is that I’ll continue to both support and recommend VB. It has a few flaws, but those are far outweighed by its advantages. With sites like VB no one has an excuse to access pirated porn or tube sites. VB remains an incredible value and I hope they’re around for a long time.
Great review of a great site! Not that I need validation, but I'm glad to see that both you and mbaya found that the site had a change in focus from kink to more more mainstream. I prefer the kinkier days but EB, like a lot of other Kink.com sites will still have me as a regular member.
I'll let you know what I think of TT's scenes on Twisty's if I join. I was hooked when I saw her on X-Art. Her X-Art work was better than her stuff at Nubiles.
A “head’s up” if adding Public Invasion through Bang Bros
Public Invasion is a stand-alone Bang Bros site that you can join for $25 per month. If you join this way I don’t know what network access you get. If you join the BB network through the main portal you have the option of adding Public Invasion for $10. That sounds like a good deal, but it isn’t. The main site has 189 scenes available while the ‘site’ you can join for $10 only has 30 scenes. Obviously BB can charge what it wants, but nothing I saw when I joined through the BB portal indicated I was getting limited access, and the cost per episode is more than double on the add-on site.
Having said all that, if you’re a fan of public stuff, as I am, my advice is to save your money on both sites. There really isn’t much ‘public’ material here, at least not in the 30 scenes I had access to. The site really offers Eastern European models (most unknown to me) flashing a bit outdoors when no one is looking and then the action moves to a more secluded spot for oral and intercourse. This really shouldn’t be tagged as ‘public’ but rather as ‘outdoor.’

Pros:
- Huge collection
- Many sites
- Offers HD on many scenes (in MP4 only)
- New sites added
- Good variety of ethnicities, ages and body types
Cons:
- Video quality isn’t great (with WMVs)
- Time-outs for links are very short
- Some sites have just been abandoned
- Found an unusually high number of WMV files with sound that wasn’t synchronized with the video
- Large number of ads and upsells – many sites are additional cost
- Sites don’t list scenes by model – they’re given a unique name
- Doesn’t bill through a reputable biller
- A lot of fake breasts and tattoos
Bottom Line:
This has been one of the most difficult reviews I’ve written here. On one hand, this network offers a lot of decent porn for a low price. On the other hand, it takes an “all-you-can-eat-buffet” approach to porn: there’s lots of it but a lot of it seems the same. I would (and will) recommend the site, but only for people looking for specific things in a porn site.
Bang Bros doesn’t need much of an introduction here, but for those who don’t know it, it is a collection of 20+ sites covering a wide variety of niches. The sites are listed at TBP so I won’t mention them here. There is lots of variety, and lots of well-known talent here too. The scenes are shot reasonably well and the website is relatively easy to navigate and use. I have no idea how many scenes are on offer, but it has to be several thousand at least.
Each scene on each site opens into a separate page where you can select how to view the scene or photos. The scene can be streamed in “light,” “medium” and HD. I can’t vouch for those as I prefer downloads. Downloads are available as WMVs and MP4s. While the MP4s are available in several file sizes (from “small” to “HD”) the WMVs are only available in one size. I prefer WMVs so that’s what I downloaded. Those come in at 640x480 @ 1100kb/s and 30fps. Subjectively, they’re what you’d expect for those specs. I do wish that the network offered more choice for WMVs. While this isn’t widespread, I did find a higher number of WMV files with unsynchronized audio than I’d see on other sites. This is a fairly rare problem, so to have it occur on 20+ scenes seems high.
The network does offer a lot of material in HD. The HD is MP4 only and comes in at 1280x720 at 3000kb/s and 30fps. These, obviously, look a lot better than the low resolution WMVs.
While photos are available, this really isn’t a photo site. The photos are screencaps of the videos and are available as singles or as zips. I didn’t download any photos.
Speaking of downloads, while the network would allow you to use a download manager to increase the download speed, the link timeouts were so short that a manager couldn’t be used to queue up multiple scenes. The timeouts are the shortest I’ve ever encountered on a site that still allows download managers, being less than two minutes before the link would go dead.
This isn’t a pro or con, but it seems odd that the network stops updating sites but creates another one with a similar niche. It really doesn’t matter, but why stop updating one BJ site only to create another similar one? Not to be too cynical, but my guess is that it helps in marketing by being able to say you have more sites.
The network does have its flaws, though I’ll admit many of the flaws I see are subjective. My biggest issue is that when browsing a specific site you have a thumbnail of the scene and below that is the scene name and the date it was uploaded. While I have nothing against providing that information, I do wish that they’d also provide the model’s name. I found it easier to browse the network by model than by site.
This is definitely a subjective criticism, but the site seems to favour larger models than I normally like. I’m not talking BBW or anything like that, but my preference runs to the more petite models. Petite models are here, but the site seems to favour those with larger breasts and asses. Tattoos are also plentiful. If you like your models petite and unadorned, you may not like this network. On the other hand, there are a lot of different ages and races here too.
Another issue here is that even after joining the network you’ll see lots of ads for other sites and up-sells for other, additional-cost, network sites. While I can understand why a network would want to generate more income, this network really makes these ads and up-sells prominent. (But since I joined two of the up-sells, they obviously work.)
The network manages its own accounts so there is no biller. As exotics4me noted in a comment, you really need to make sure your membership is cancelled, a particularly is you’ve added sites for additional cost. The simple means for cancelling only applies to the main network so unless you specifically cancel the add-on sites that billing may recur.
As I said at the beginning, even with the flaws I’d still recommend this site, though not to everyone and only after explaining the site’s weaknesses. I’d recommend the site to someone looking to access a lot of porn for a decent price where quality isn’t the motivating factor. Who would this be? Likely someone deciding to give up on “tube” sites and start actually paying for the porn they use. I wouldn’t recommend this network to a long-time porn collector with experience with great sites. That would be recommending that someone who dines at Morton’s Steakhouse try Uncle Moe’s Family Feedbag. Both serve a purpose, but some people won’t feel satisfied at Moe's.
I rejoined Nubiles to get more of Ms. thompson - I'm not sure how I missed her the last few times I was there - and was disappointed to see that she's solo only there. Thanks for the tip that I might already have the only b/g stuff she's done.
The site currently has 106 videos and adds one video per week.
A membership here gives you a membership to three other massage-themed sites with over 730 massage videos and regular updates. If you’re interested, what I wrote when reviewing Nuru Massage applies to this site too.
The site currently has 242 videos but updates infrequently and irregularly. One update a month is about the best they offer.

- $14.95 TPB/PU discount
- Supports download managers (see comment below)
- Scenes have a decent amount of heat and eroticism
- Beautiful models, most well-known porn stars
- Appears to be exclusive content
- Very high production values

- Lack of hardcore sex may be an issue for some
- No independent biller (see comment)
Bottom Line:
This site doesn’t market itself as a network, and I’m not saying it is one, but membership to one site gets you membership to three other massage-themed sites so I’ll cover all four sites here.
While there are subtle variations between the sites the basic elements are the same in all of them: a guy walks into the massage parlor to get a massage. The girl greets the guy, they undress and shower together, they usually start the massage in a large tub and then the massage continues on an air mattress or massage table. In Nuru Massage they use a thick, clear massage oil for which the type of massage and this site are named. In Soapy Massage they use soap bubbles as the medium, and the massage is a bit more traditional in Massage Parlor. In all cases there is a ‘happy ending’ and in 80% of scenes on all sites there is oral. There are a few sex scenes, but those are rare. All Girl Massage seems to follow a similar pattern, though I didn’t watch many of those.
Some potential members might find the massage theme can get a little dull after a while. I agree that it can, but if you like massage as a niche this is definitely well done. The models play their roles well and they keep the heat and eroticism turned up. Some may not like the fact that there is very little sex (apart from oral), but I think that adds to the heat and realism.
The details on each site are:
• Nuru Massage – 166 videos, updates with one video per week
• Massage Parlor - 220 videos, updates several times per week with the addition of one scene per update
• Soapy Massage – 242 videos, updates irregularly and infrequently, but at least one scene per month is added
• All Girl Massage – 106 videos, updates with one video per week
The site is either affiliated with or uses the same web design as Fame Digital. I think it’s the former. This is a good thing, in my opinion, because the quality of these sites is very good. And like other Fame sites there is a TBP / PU discount. Unfortunately, like other Fame sites, they don’t use a biller though I’ve never had a membership issue with any Fame site before.
TBP includes Nuru Massage as an Asian site, which seems appropriate considering the idea of Nuru massage is Japanese, but while there is a higher percentage of Asian models on the site than on many other porn sites, I don’t think I’d call this an Asian site. It may be that when TBP reviewed it originally the site had more Asian models, but now they aren’t even in the majority. When you consider all four sites as a group this is definitely not an Asian site. That could be good or bad, depending on your tastes.
The models are all beautiful and most are well known porn stars. There are different body types to suit most tastes. Some have too many tattoos but that’s just part of the business these days. In his earlier review, GCode noted there were only 15 models on the site. This has improved significantly with 77 available now.
The scenes all appear to be exclusive. I collect massage-themed stuff and I’ve never seen them elsewhere. Also, given that the set and set-up is essentially the same for all the scenes that supports that these are exclusive. The production values are great too: the lighting, sound, camerawork and editing are all top-notch.
There is no search function on any of the sites but one isn’t needed either. You can sort the scenes using different tags and you can sort by model. This may sound too limiting, but given the single theme of the sites it works well.
If you’re familiar with Fame sites the site design will look familiar. Each scene opens to a page where you can download or stream the video. Video downloads are available as WMVs in 240p or 480p resolutions. MP4s are available in 240, 480, 540, 720 and 1080p. I prefer WMV files and I downloaded the 480p ones which come in at 720x400 at 2200kb/s and 30fps. I can’t make any assessment of the MP4s. While I understand why a site would limit WMVs (due to the larger size, I suspect) I do wish that they offered more choice with that file type. In their defence, even though the numbers don’t look all that impressive, subjectively the videos look great.
An issue I’ve had in the past with Fame sites is that they have a short time-out on the links which makes using a download manager difficult. I’ll admit that I have a faster connection from the last time I had a Fame membership, but the problem doesn’t seem to be nearly as bad here as I’ve experienced in the past.
The bottom line is that I’d definitely recommend these sites. As usual, the caveat is that you have to like the set-up, but for the price it is even worth it to join just to get a few addition scenes with some favourite stars. The sites have excellent material to offer and they offer it through a website that’s easy to use and they sell it at a great price. The whole combination is an excellent value.
While I prefer a reputable biller, I've joined several Fame Digital sites multiple times and haven't had a problem yet, so I'm inclined to trust them. But I do worry about not having that independent third party in the middle if there's a problem. I've noticed for maybe the past six months than when I choose a username and password they add three numbers in front of each. I assume they do this because I've used the username and password before and this helps create a unique user. I hope it works out for you becuase Fame has some excellent sites.
(BTW - I think they've bumped their TBP special to $15 from $10. Still an exellent deal though. Like you, I wonder why they charge the full price on rebill as all this does is make me cancel the membership in the third week to avoid the higher charges. I suspect I'd hang around if the rebill was at the same TBP discount every month.)
I have to weigh in with pat on this. If Kink isn't THE most reputable adult group on the internet then they're in the top three. My experience is that that always respond to emails. Be patient and I'm confident that the issue will get resolved.
I'm hoping that I've got her stuff from Nubiles because I've had a membership after that date and she is definitely someone I would have downloaded pics and video of.
This isn't the first time that's happened, and it doesn't only happen with online purchases, but that's the majority of times that they've called me. Embarassingly, Bang Bros doesn't bill too discretely. I should have just confessed to the young lady on the phone that I was downloaded the new Tanner Mayes anal scene.
Thanks Claypaws - for the kind words and pointing out where I can get more Tiffany. I'll definitely be checking my Nubiles collection later tonight and will check the ATK site.
