The issue about having the 24 hour wait for me is that if I get cut off at 9PM one night then I may not have time to go on that late the next day so my wait time becomes much longer than 24 hours. Download limits really bug me...

Thanks for this tip. I use IDM too and will make that change when I have a membership at this site.
Thanks also for the comments and rating.

To make matters worse, their download limit seems to be arbitrarily imposed and can even change from day to day and user to user. This is counter-intuitive, but when you download HD files you can download more. I was often able to download up to 40GB per day the last time I was there as long as I stuck to HD files. The problem is that there often isn't any consistency so what I experienced a few months ago may not be the case now. But try the HD if you have the capacity and you may find you can download more.

Gnoman's Review
I'm surprised at your comment that there is a lot of anal stuff and ATM there now. I was a member earlier this year and don't remember there being much anal. But as an anal fan I may not notice it as much as someone who doesn't like it.

I selected yes, but for me price is only one element of value. If a site charges more than average but offers a lot of exclusive content with high production values, then that will be part of the comments I make in the review. I always try to give some objective reasons why I think a site is good value even if it does have a high price.

I'm glad I could help you out. I do think that VB passed its prime a long time ago. I think the only reason they can offer such low prices is that they upload crap and only in low resolutions by today's standards.
Like you, I'll celebrate if Kink ever offers some kind of network access.

I wish I had the answer on costs for you, but in all the comments and reviews it seems no one, including myself, ever noted that. But some of the more recent information there does suggest that the pro-rated pricing for the add-ons is still in effect, which means that you can control what you pay provided you cancel your main membership after a month. If you're confident that you can get all the Kink scenes you want in a few days then sign up to Kink with three or four days left on your VB membership and you'll only be charged for those few days remaining. But if you forget to cancel you'll be charged full price for both VB and the add-on at the start of the next monthly billing cycle.
I don't remember what the file resolutions were either, but I can say that I have since deleted all of them. I'm guessing 540x480 or somewhere around there.
I agree with you that it would be a great idea for Kink to offer some 'buffet' kind of membership where a member could access a specific number of scenes across all their sites for a set fee. One thing about Kink though, is that if you join one site you get a discounted price to the others. But that's still an expensive proposition. Kink does offer some form of pay-per-scene but I don't know how much it is per scene. If you're really only interested in a few scenes that may be a cost-effective way to get HD scenes at a reasonable price.

I don't have the answer for you, but the last time I was a member there the add-on 'channels' were pro-rated to the remaining length of your first month. So if you joined VB on July 1 and also joined the Kink channel on July 1 you paid the full price. But if you waited and joined Kink on July 20 you were only charged for the one-third of the month that you used. That was valuable if you were only staying a month. Subsequent months you'd be billed full cost for both VB and the Kink channel.
One major caveat, VB really seems to have changed their business model. They don't seem as transparent as they once were and they could have changed the billing practices for the channels.
One advantage though is that the Kink channel gives you access to shoots from several different Kink sites so you can get samples from a lot for a lot less money. The biggest disadvantage is that the file resolutions on the Kink channel are far lower than what you can get on an actual Kink site.
I hope this helps.

It may only be symbolic, but I think asking Rick and Khan to delist a site that has a proven issue is a good idea. While there may not be too many of us who are active on this site I'm confident that there are thousands who rely on it for purchasing decisions. If TBP/PU could delist a site it may have an impact.
Consider the recent delisting of German Goo Girls after members repeatedly complained of fraudulent billing. Sure, the webmaster weighed in each time promising to fix it, but until the site chose a reputable biller it needed to be delisted.

Khan's right on this. I see the discount when I click 'join' so the most likely issue is a cookie from an earlier visit. Clear your cache and you should be fine.
This looks like a great site, BTW. If you join please post a review to let everyone else know what you think.

For me it's a modification of "immediately buy a new hard drive." I plan ahead and when I know I'll be running out of space soon that's when I buy a new one.

I'm no fan of caps either, but one this low is a real pain in the ass. What's especially annoying is that they offer HD scenes that will reach the cap very quickly. Their justification for it is that it prevents some heavy users from hogging the bandwidth but if that happens at this site why isn't it an issue at other sites too? And isn't throttling a better solution for those rare times when there might be a lot of users on the site? I'll never be a fan of caps, but I can live with reasonable ones. This one isn't reasonable.
Thanks for weighing in on this.

Khan - I owe some apologies - to you and to Amateur Allure. I have several memberships on the go and when I sorted through this following your comment I realized that I attributed the cross-sell to the wrong site. The cross-sell came when joining Casting Couch X.
Is there a way you can remove this entire thread as it is both misleading and irrelevant? If not, I'll add a new thread with a mea culpa to make it clear that this was my error and nothing to do with Amateur Allure.

Agreed. Once your collection reaches a certain size then the ability to search effectively becomes important. Besides carefully cataloguing the actual sites/scenes/DVDs/models I keep a Word document that lists everything so I have two ways to search. On top of that, I flag scenes I like by creating a shortcut to it and then when I plug a drive in I can search the term "shortcut" and up come all my favorite scenes on that drive.

I think the reason that I prefer street clothes like jeans or shorts is that it is relatively rare. But even if it wasn't so rare that would be my choice anyway.

A lot of the Open Life sites have been making these offers. For Hard X I suspect there is some necessity given the site is new, small and only add one scene per week. That's one scene, not one DVD.

I rename as needed (to fit my naming structure) and then organize as I catalogue stuff. Then it gets backed up. I have a fairly regimented and meticulous process. You could say that I'm anal about my porn...

Glad I could help. I got burned with the XXX Pawn thing so stopping you from joining Haze Her or Dancing Bear is a little bit of payback for me!

Subtitles are rare, and to be honest I don't think they're used much at all. In a lot of cases the models do speak some English and for those that don't there is an unseen female translator in the room. At least until Pierre and the model start speaking the universal language of love...

RagingBuddhist's Comment
You are lucky about one thing - at least when you clicked the join page you found out that it lacked encryption. I had an email about a new site called XXX Pawn a few weeks back that looked interesting so I clicked the join button to see what the price was. What I didn't know was that it was a Bang Bros site and they had retained my credit card information so I didn't get any price information - I was signed up. At $20 for a site with six or seven scenes. And true to Bang Bros form with all of their add-on sites, cancelling was not easy. Since Haze Her and Dancing Bear are Bang Bros sites, if you join make sure to start the cancellation process well in advance of a rebill because you may need that time to get the membership cancelled.
Bang Bros has some great porn but the have the business ethics of the mob.
