Hey Khan, I ran CCleaner and was still seeing a completely different page that had much higher prices. I reset my connection to the cable modem, went back and now I am seeing the special price of $14.95, I really don't know what caused the other page with the higher prices to show up. Should I just edit the comment or can you remove it? Whichever would be easier for you all.
But I am seeing the special price again and do apologize for the error on my part.
Thanks PinkPanther, I thought I had seen her before, but couldn't figure out where. I will have to join Teen Dreams soon, some of that content that shows in the preview of Teen Dreams on her main page is the same content on Babelicious, I think. But there is a lot more on Teen Dreams.
I agree, Teen Dreams has some of the worst aliases for the models. I remember when I first joined it and couldn't find Sandra Shine. I had no idea she had been listed as Judit. Maybe the worst of all, one of the few other newer models that I really like is Black Angelica and she is listed as Nicky. I've never seen her listed as anything different than either Black Angelica or Angelica except the K spelling Angelika, how they get Nicky is beyond me! On the good side, I hadn't been on TD in nearly 6 months and looks like they are getting some interesting new models including this one Satin that I see in the updates.
The High DL is HD on the newer videos. You can also click "Pussies" to see the models in alphabetical order but the only way to follow the updates is by using the calender.
I think my forum post which I was about to reply on, it didn't completely come across the way I meant for it to. You can check that reply out and see what I mean.
I wanted to say that Babelicious is not slowing down at all. The newest model is this British model named Sasha. I first thought Sasha Grey, but she is from California. This Sasha has an incredibly seductive British accent and is quite dirty with that accent. She looks all of 20 at the most. I'm wondering if anyone knows anywhere else that has content of her? If you don't know who I am talking about their preview has a video preview of her on the main page. She talks in it so you can check out that accent too. Very pretty girl with a nice body, especially the lower half. I wouldn't want to see any hardcore b/g of her, just wondering if there is any other solo content since a big part of the charm was hearing her talk dirty.
I don't think I had really seen much porn from the British girls before, note to self, new fetish, British accent.
When I read the question my first thought was, "badandy400 has to be the one that asked this" ha ha!
I personally don't download everything. I have a list of models that I like and am pretty damn snobby about this list! I only download content from these models to keep. I do occasionally stray from the list to look at some new models, but I rarely find a new model that I want to collect. There are exceptions, the little British model Sasha on Babelicious is really close to jumping on the list. Not for sure if it is her petite but curvy body or her dirty British mouth, but I wasn't expecting either from her from her innocent looking profile picture. Then I watch a video and she is making Eddie Murphy blush! You know a girl is a good solo performer when she says, "You want me to cum for you again?" and precedes to nearly tear her innards out doing it. Gives a whole new meaning to us American PUs with the saying "The British are coming"!
I will also keep a folder just for the content that I am curious about and for DVDs that I download from the DVD sites. I've always liked the Combat Zone videos and will usually download the full DVD of those and keep them. A few more hardcore stars that I usually keep would be Tiffany Taylor and Eva Angelina. But all in all, it mostly all about those 10-12 models on the list. I'm telling you all, check out little Sasha on the Babelicious preview, now does she look anything but innocent? Watch one of her videos sometime, I was ready to drink her bath water!

Updated:
05-22-0911:31pm (Update History) Reason: Had probably 40% of the content on the network sites from years of Pix and Video and Club Sandy, still recommended for NW access, just not a 98
Pros:
- Score is based on the full package of sites included by joining through Zoliboy
- Zoli's site itself is a fetish site that is pretty extreme, newer updates are HD
- Zoli's older content is some of my favorite content on the internet. Top Euro models, including Eve Angel, Aneta Keys, Sophie Moone all have content on here from the past. Features some of the best interview style videos, as Zoli seems to be at least bi-lingual and jokes with the models.
- Newer videos are 1280 high end, pictures are screencaps and can be downloaded in zips.
- Very good DL speed, about 95% of my max.
- Big pro, bonus instant access to 35 sites, including several top-level sites that will go into more about in bottom line, bonus sites range from solo to MILF to transexuals.
- Network access for $29.95 crushes the cons
Cons:
- Pictures on Zoli's site are screencaps
- Older videos are only 512 high end
- Newer models are mostly just ugly, that is the best and easiest way for me to say it. I do not joke that Zoli's main page now features a laughing Zoli sitting beside a model with a bag over her head. My last review about his site joked that not only did I not want to see those new models naked, I wanted them to cover their faces too.
Bottom Line:
I researched the 21st Sextury sites, telling myself that I would find one that has the bonus sites that I wanted. This one had them and it is always fun to go back to Zoli's site and pick up the older content. Two favorite videos, one of Zoli shopping with Eve Angel, he slips into the dressing room with her, smiles at the camera and says, "Check this out guys!" and he is pretty excited about being in the small dressing room with a fully nude Eve. The other is with Aneta Keys, he keeps wanting to touch her, she tells him no several time, then finally gives in and Zoli goes on to talk about having dreams about her while she laughs at him.
My point being, he comes off as a normal guy like us porn users that can't believe he is there with these beautiful models and generally makes a fool of himself like we probably would.
The newer videos are 1280 high end, but I really can't tell you much about them except that they are 1280, because I am not into the extreme pee, puke, gag content at all. I did download one part though just to make sure it was 1280 and it was. The pictures are something of a disappointment since those are only screencaps, but on the bright side the screencaps come in zips and are usually nice looking for screencaps.
Zoli's site alone received an 84 from me in my last review of it and I would rate it around 84 again, maybe a couple more points since they have went to HD format. I scored the site what I did though because it comes with 34 other sites, and while some of those sites are of no interest to me like the transsexual sites, 2 of those, and some of the sites are just videos ripped from DVDs, there still are more than a few really great bonus sites that you get by joining through Zoliboy. The bonus sites you receive do vary depending on what site you join through, so hopefully this will save some of you the time of researching which site to join through.
These are the sites I was wanting and received all by joining through Zoliboy, Open Air Pleasures, Playful Hands, Footsie Babes, Sweet Sophie Moone, Dirty 101, Lezbo Honeys, Horny Euro Sluts and Asshole Fever. The only one I didn't get was Asshole Fever, but my only reason for wanting it was the Simony Diamond content it has. These sites are updating weekly in HD, and there is exclusive content on these sites. I have joined Sweet Sophie Moone before at full price of $30 and rated it a 90 by itself.
To give you an idea, there is 61 Eve Angel scenes available instantly, Sophie including her solo site has 352! Aneta Keys has 25. These are instantly mine for $30! For me, this is the very best value on the internet. The only thing I would still even mention as a con for all of the sites in this network is that the picture size is still 1280 max, but those are very nice, bright pictures. I am going to write separate reviews for some of those bonus sites too. As several are good enough to stand on their own and several have. Highest recommendation possible!
I will give you this much, there does seem to be some site sharing content between the DDF sites and I don't understand why they are doing that either.
Things I don't agree with at all.
Anyone can take a look at their site right now and see 30 new updates since January with 40 or so reloaded updates that are remastered and of a much higher quality, but you say, "I was a member for 3 months and only saw an increase in the amount of archive material being re-posted."
As much as you don't think that is fair that they do remaster and re-release content, they are not hiding it from anyone. You can easily see from the cover of each set if it is reloaded and can see that in their preview before joining. And if the original was 512 high end and in parts and the new is 1280 high end, and in full scenes, it is new in that sense.
I was one of the first ones to complain about the archive removal in January, but I wouldn't say they hid it or covered up. I have an email from them that explains in full that they removed the archive and it came with a link where I could still access the archive.
Where your review jumped out at me was when you said, "I have been a member of their main competitor site and they showed everyone's comments and posted replys to most of them." Who is their main competitor? I noticed that the two family of sites that I generally consider the top two in Euro porn, 1byday/DDF and Pix and Video/21st Sextury BOTH received a bad review and a bad comment from you. It just made me wonder with so many untruthful parts in both if maybe you had a connection to the main competitors site that you mentioned.
I guess it also looked strange to see a complaint and con, and would assume a removal of points for them not responding to requests for different settings. I didn't even know 1byday offers members the chance to pick the setting. Even more so, I don't even know what a "train carriage" is, a bakery and shop, would sound like settings from a niche/fetish site.
Again, I am sorry if I am wrong, but I know for a fact that most of the things you say here are not true and the things you say in your comment about Pix and Video's site isn't true either, and I know that I can't be wrong about those parts that aren't true. Between the two, I felt like I had no choice but to change my trust vote from yes to no. I can deal with strange and differing opinions, but not the untruthful parts.
Disagree with this, about as much as possible. The first part I disagree with is when you joined both P&V and Club Sandy, it was $44.95 the first month, $39.95 thereafter, not $30 thereafter, that wouldn't even start to make any sense. Each site is $30 separately, so under the recurring rate you are claiming, you can pay $15 extra one time and get both sites for $30 every month thereafter.
Second disagreement is that the bonus sites "all of their content" comes from P&V and Club Sandy. As a member in the 21st Sextury Network through Zoliboy.com, I am getting no less than 6 sites that have content that was never on P&V or Club Sandy.
The price claim can be verified by looking at Sweet Sophie Moone's site that still offers the combo packages of two sites for $44.95 and $39.95 thereafter. The content claims and my knowledge of the content and what has moved and what hasn't is backed up by two 6 month memberships to the Club Sandy and P&V combo over the last two years. I had the archived content and it is not the same content on all of the bonus sites. I'm a known obsessed with Eve Angel content fan, and could go as far as digging her content from these sites up on my hard drive and telling you the exact numbers of exclusive shoots to each site.
Personally, after exploring the bonus sites I would receive, I joined through Zoliboy as it had all of the bonus sites I wanted instantly, and would go as far as saying the package is the best value on the internet. Also, those bonus sites are updating with new content weekly that is in HD format, so how if those are recycled from the other sites are they doing that? Sorry man, but after reading your completely away from the truth review of 1byday and now this completely away from the truth comment, I felt I should post this and a reply to the 1byday comment to explain why I am changing my trust vote from yes to no. These things just aren't true, just like some of the things in the 1byday review aren't true either. I can't help but question your intentions seeing that you went after the top two Euro sites with untruthful posts.
No problem, glad to have helped, I ran into the same problem, even using WMP 11 with a lot of the MP4 video files that are showing up on ALS Scan and the VLC plays those too.
I had seen where Sophie retired too, the good thing for me is that I had an external hard drive that crashed in December and lost all of my content from her site and zoli's site, so you can imagine the great deal this becomes for me. I've joined both several times at full price over the years. I almost went with joining playful hands and getting its bonus sites, but it didn't come with lezbo honeys or dirty 101 or zoli's content, but by joining through zoli for the same price, I get both of those and playful hands and zoli. Not positive but Playful Hands seems to have some of the new Club Sandy updates on it, including the Eve Angel in genie outfit one. I believe 21st Sextury just pushed themselves up very high especially during this times are hard economy.
Hey Tom, if you don't want to risk upgrading to the new WMP, check out VLC's video player. It will play all videos from Sapphic Erotica and doesn't need any codec alterations that I know of, it also uses much less system resources than WMP and probably is the most flexible and easy to use media player on the internet.
Zoli is one of the few extreme fetish sites that I fool with joining, though I don't care for the new content, the old content isn't near as extreme and has some funny shoots, sexy ones too with some of Europe's top models. I couldn't help but laugh when joining and noticed the opening page has Zoli sitting beside of model, laughing and her head covered with a bag, kind of made me wonder if he read the comment about covering the newer models faces on his site? The biggest reason that I joined through Zoli was to get the 21st Sextury Network sites. Of those sites, I have been a regular member on Club Sandy, Pix and Video and Sweet Sophie Moone, but not many of the others.
For my $29.95 price I received instant access to these that I had been wanting to join Playful Hands, Open Air Pleasures, Flexy Pussy, Footsie Babes, Lezbo Honeys, Dirty 101 and Horny Euro Sluts. And that is instant access, not waiting until next month, those and about 25 other sites came with Zoli's site. That is a great deal, oh and it also comes with full instant access to Sweet Sophie Moone too. I really like how 21st Sextury has put the extra time in their sites now to show exactly which sites you get instantly, as I spent about 25 minutes going through them until I found the one that offered the most I was interested in joining, mainly and admittedly for Eve Angel and Aneta Keys content, both have a ton of content on these instant access sites.
Good poll Drooler, this came up awhile back in an email discussion with Nick of Babelicious. The reason being, at that time, there wasn't anyway to view the models except by ranking. I had missed several models that for some reason were rated very low. They did add the alphabetical search feature, but the model ratings do seem to be a bit odd to me in variance from site to site. A few months ago, I was on Xisty and Babelicious and was comparing the rankings. Since both sites have very similar model selection. Eve Angel was #1 on xisty but only #35 at Babelicious. Sandra Shine was #6 at Babelicious but only #44 at Xisty.
What I think happens, first of all I find it disturbing that I'm making theories about porn, but anyway, I think there are some members that go from say babelicious to xisty, where there is licensed content on both and they get mad that they already have the non-exclusive sets and give those low scores.
I also think videos of models that don't go beyond the tease step bring their rating down too.
I always think the comments are funny. I rarely get beyond 2 without seeing, "Wish she would do anal!" and you know that member is hitting the lower score everytime a non-anal scene is posted.
I happen to be a member right now and checked it out. Using Free Download Manager, as soon as I click "Ok" it stops, doesn't even start to download. This included with username and password stored in DL manager. On the other hand, I tried it with just the built-in standard DL manager in Firefox and had 8 videos downloading at one time. One thing of note that I noticed is that when you first sign in and click to download your first video of that session, it asks again for your login and password. That could be what is tripping the DL manager up. But you can download multiple files and with the size of the files, if you had 8 going, it would take awhile. The site also doesn't have a huge collection, what is there, is very good though.
The only thing I disagree with this is like with the site I listed above Eve Angel. With 1300 sets between pictures and videos, logically, most sites can't reach that amount of content in even 3 years with daily updates. If a site updates daily for 3 straight years, you have 365 days in a year x 3 years, would be 1,095 sets, while her site has around 1,300 sets. All the update really is, is an addition to the quantity of the site and amount of material available to the members. I could even use her site as an example of the bad side of needing daily updates. The webmaster of Eve Angel has removed the last year of old content and releases a set of it each day as "new" content, even though it was on the site for 2-3 years before the recycling started. Where the new members get screwed is if they just left the old content alone, there would actually be more content to download with the site not making daily updates. It looks like they have about 40 sets down right now that have been available on the site before and will release them over the next 40 days.
If they weren't trying to reach the "daily updated" status, there would be 40 more sets there for new members to download today. So there can be a bad side to daily updated as well since new members don't know if the content released in daily updates really is new or not.
I marked yes since one of my highest rated sites is no longer updating with new material, just recycled material, Eve Angel. As a solo site, the site still has more content than nearly all solo sites with around 800 pic sets and nearly 500 videos. The reduced price of $15 makes it even better. I still never figured out why the webmaster of her site is trying to be deceptive by removing old material and then releasing it is "new" updates. Eve is a very noticeable maturing model. The content he is putting up as new now is from 4-5 years ago when she looked like a very innocent teen model, the "older" content he has up from 2007 is really the newest content they have of her. So it goes from 2007 content, she was about 25-26 in that content to 2008-2009 updates that she is 20-21 in.
The site still, especially for fans of Eve and that $15 price is one of porn's best buys, with or without updates. You could join for a month and download 15 videos 640 high end, 2000 bitrate, and 20 picture sets 2000+ high end zipped per day for a month and barely have all the content.
Here are some numbers. I did a search for "videos" and "ass fingering" and found 92 scenes. It shows 45 scenes for "ass toys" and on just toy scenes there are 307 scenes with toys which would be a little less than half of the scenes they have. If you noticed in the review the search isn't the most accurate. The numbers could be off some, they don't always list scenes under the right category. Most of the models in the videos are Euro models. I would go as far as saying the American models at most make up 15% of the models and that might be pushing it. You almost get an amateur feel to the models. As much Euro porn as I have downloaded, I only recognize maybe 1/3 of the models.
Most of the big Euro stars are on there too, one problem that I think new members will have is with the name system. For example Eve Angel who rarely but sometimes goes by Severine or Katie is known as Daphne on Sapphic Erotica. Brigette/Britney Hunter is Brooke. There are probably a dozen or so of these bigger stars that go by a name that is only used on Sapphic Erotica and their sister sites. The good thing, the model index has a decent sized thumbnail of every model so you can scan those in an hour or so and find the ones you're looking for.
Just found out, this is the first time I've seen this
I went to cancel my membership at Give Me Pink, it still has 10 days left on the account, but I like to cancel ahead of time. When you go to cancel it offers to transfer your remaining days to one of the other DEV sites, Prime Cups, All Internal etc...
I haven't tried it so I don't know if you could keep doing this throughout the membership, maybe a week at a time on each of their four sites, but I do really like this option and hope other sites will consider doing this in the future.
Was a member approx. 1 month prior to this review.
Pros:
- Still my favorite of the all-girl lesbian sites
- Newer videos have 1280x720 top option, most at least have 852 high end option and the first 30 or so videos on the site are the only really bad quality clips.
- Picture sets are zipped, but do not have picture set for each video set, also have a lot of photo sets that there is no video for.
- Good DL speed, about 95% of my max
- Total amount of content is very high 748 videos as of 2/2/2009, 1285 picture sets.
- Contains the most "tribbing" on a lesbian site that I have seen.
Cons:
- Some of the newer content has a cookie cutter feel to it. Very planned out scenes, which all usually are, but at least make me believe it could be real!
- As mentioned in pros, you will see a video you like and wonder how the pictures will look, but they don't have a picture set for every video and vice versa.
- More and more licensed, non-exclusive content finding its way on here.
Bottom Line:
I did lower my opinion a little on the overall score from my first review. Having said that, I still believe that overall it is the best girl/girl site on the internet. The older content has some real gems in those.
I still think content is disappearing. I used to have a Sarah Blake/Charlie Laine movie in front of a fireplace that said sapphic erotica on it, but it is nowhere to be found on the site. Probably one of the greatest g/g scenes I had ever seen.
Most of the newer scenes are bordering on uninteresting. I don't think it is the models' fault since I've seen these models in g/g content on other sites with much more passion and much more believability. The newest scene with Eve Angel is almost boring, and Eve won an award year before for Best Foreign Female Performer from AVN.
The site's navigation is okay. The new search is better than no search. I am currently on the site and searched for "videos" and added "trib" 57 results come up. Then I added "blonde" to the other two search terms and 42 results come up. So far so good. Then I added, "slim" to the 3 search terms and 53 results come up. Do some backwards math there and see that only 42 came up with videos/trib/blonde but 53 come up for videos/trib/blonde/slim.
Now you see what I mean about the search being better than no search, but you can also see how it isn't real consistent.
The picture sets range in quality by age. Most of the older sets are 1200 high end, and do come zipped. I've never really understood the purpose of giving you small, medium, large options on thumb size. I clicked the large thinking it was a larger resolution. The newest picture set, added on 1/31/09 has 2000 high end resolution.
Model selection is very good. There really are some very good videos in there. You just have to spend some time finding them. I especially recommend the older videos, even the ones of the "butch" looking models as those are filled with passion. There is one really cute video of 5 models, Sophie Moone is in it as is Sandra Shine, and Sophie does a little booty tease that turns into an orgy.
What it comes down to for me, the big name Euro models are great here, and the older videos are as well.
I rate it high because you just don't see a lot of quality lesbian content anymore and including SE's large back catalog of over 700 videos, you are sure to find some content to your liking. Add the high quality, just did a check, a video from 2003 had 640 high end with 1000 bitrate, one from 2006 has 960 high end with 2000 bitrate and in 2007 the 1280 high end started showing up. So that is pretty good, 640 is still standard for some sites today and they were doing it in 2003.
A few tweaks to the navigation and a more accurate search engine would help. I would personally like to be able to pick updates by years. It would make it easier to get the older content much easier. As it is, you have to click "Next" over and over until at the end. I still recommend it highly.

Updated:
05-22-0911:34pm (Update History) Reason: Site stopped updating in Feb 2009, still great quality, for amount of archived content can't hold a 94 without new updates.
Pros:
- Has to be one of the highest quality sites on the internet.
- Model selection is very good, nearly all top Euro models have at least 1 set, some have as many as 4.
- Picture sets are some of the most complete that I have seen. You can download a zip of the high res photos, and/or a set of screenshots from each set. Will explain more in BL
- Videos do vary a bit, older ones have the highest option of 512 high end with 1500 bitrate, newer ones have 4 options that range from a small mpg to full HD 1920x1080 with 8000 bitrate.
- Very download manager friendly, especially if you just allow 1 DL to run at a time, I had 38 files in mine (1 DL at time, others cued up) last night and those were done without any errors
- DL speed is 99% my max speed
- Navigation is very clean and neat with well-placed buttons for video, pictures, screenshots for each set
Cons:
- Can be repetitive, as most solo sites do become repetitive.
- If you plan on getting the Full HD files be prepared to look into an external hard drive, files near 2 GB each, not a con for me, but could be for some.
- Some of the older sets especially do have some different content, like speculum, shooting milk from their butts, the good thing is, most of this is at the end of the videos which are usually 30 minutes+ each
Bottom Line:
This is my updated review of Give Me Pink. I do agree with Denner that there are some shots that might be a little too close-up for some tastes, but overall, I really like the content. I just skip the weird parts.
This site, has nearly every major Euro model that I know of. Here are some of the major Euro stars and number of sets they have: Eve Angel (4), Peaches (4) Sandra Shine (2), Sophie Moone (2), Zafira (2), Gianna/Ginger B (3), Cindy Hope (3), Eve Smile (2), Simony, Anita Pearl and Suzie Carina all have 1 set and there are 100+ more models. In each of these sets is a 30 minute video, high res picture set usually 50 or so pictures, screenshots that number up to 300, for each set.
That to me is very complete.
The picture sets are worth noting. I can't give an exact date, but it has been over a year, that the picture sets come with a high res set that is 2250 high end and screenshots that are 1900 high end. When you download the screenshots you get both a folder with the 1900 high end ones and another folder with 1024 high end copies. I would guess this is for those who are looking to save some hard drive space and want to keep the smaller ones.
What is amounts to, to me, is that this site especially over the last year gives you nearly everything you could possibly ask for. The extremely high quality true HD videos, the 2250 high res zipped photos, the high end 1900 screenshots that are also zipped.
I think that puts me in a bind. I don't care for the extreme content of a beautiful woman squirting milk 10 feet from her butt, but the quality makes it impossible for me to score low. I guess if the whole video focused on the extreme, I would knock some off the score, but a large portion of the videos are of these often considered timid, glamour softcore Euro models masturbating in very intense hardcore fashion.
I think what I'm trying to say is that this site shows you a side of these gorgeous runway quality models being very kinky.
Another plus for me is that these models seem to really enjoy working with this site. You get a lot of big playful smiles from them in the sets and they look like they are having fun and enjoying it.
As you can see, there is very little, outside of personal preferences, to dislike about this site. The specs on the videos are as high as any site and the several options for videos really push it up near the top. I would score it higher, but would love to see them take another step up and remaster the older videos, at least to 960 high end.
Note that I only download the 1900 high end videos of my favorite models. They have a nice 960 high end, 5000 bitrate wmv that is smaller, but still higher quality than the vast majority of sites offer.
If you're a fan of Peaches, her sets here are amazing. As are 90% of the models. The only real negative is one update per week. If they could maybe squeeze one remastered update in I would be considering an even higher score! Recommended.
I never like trusting anyone I don't know with my money. I don't even trust the US government with my money!
I do trust the ALS Scan site, but have noticed they now are using ccbill with ALS Angels. I sometimes like VXS Billing, they are pretty good about helping if you have any problems. Then again, I don't know how ccbill's support is since I've never had any problems with them. Kind of a hard place there. Epoch can be moody with me. They actually let my account at one site run for 6 months after I canceled it, never charged me again, but the login worked and wasn't realized until I went back 6 months later to check out updates. I clicked a picture set and it signed me right in.
When did porn users become ethical? I went right away to the site's support and sent them an email, including a copy of the cancel email. They were not too happy with Epoch to say the least.
Denner, I have tried a few sites in the past with netcash and it went okay. Seems like Naughty America used to use them. You have to do a little extra work than you do with ccbill. Like keeping up with order number, email, login, password and have to fill out a cancel page from the site to get it to cancel and I think they say 5-7 days before cancellation date.
Last one and the one I think needs changed the most is Aria Giovanni's personal site, not only do you pay her directly, no payment company, but it shows up right there on your credit card statement, Pay to Aria Giovanni. So much for my future as a politician!

Pros:
- The mature site by the same folks that run Nubiles, women range in age from 29 to 50. Would say the average age is right around 40.
- Newer movies come in at 1280 high end, 3500 bitrate, older ones still a good 640 high end 1500 bitrate.
- Picture sets come in small are large zips, large are 1600x2400 or vice versa, excellent quality on those.
- Very good DL speeds, about 98% of my max speed
- Navigation is simple, though it can look cluttered.
- Daily updates, plus one new model per week.
Cons:
- Price could be a factor for some, as of 1/31/09 there are 60 models total.
- Will go into the cluttered look in BL
- Not for sure if they really hit the "mature" niche since probably 20 or so of the models are late 20s/early 30s. Not a problem for me as it was that late 20s/early 30s group they have that interested me the most.
Bottom Line:
Reviewing this site is kind of hard. It is going to be a great site if they keep updating like they are right now. But as of today, the amount of content will keep from rating it as high as it will be in maybe 6 months, so keep that in mind if you are reading this.
It is one of those sites that has "tremendous upside". I would go as far as saying it can at least catch their teen site Nubiles, maybe even surpass it. They do have a forum also that the webmaster posts on, takes feedback/criticism, etc...
I noticed one thread in their forum was by the Webmaster, and he was talking about he couldn't understand why anyone would say their navigation was confusing. Believe was a TBP review that said it in the first place. The navigation to me once on a model's page is cluttered. Maybe some horizontal lines to separate sets? It has all the separate parts to the movie files, one I'm looking at right now has 8 parts, then just below those 8 links are the full scene links. All content of each model is on one page, so if the model has 3 videos as the one I'm looking at now has (Teya) there are a total of 33 video links for 3 videos.
Do understand though that they have full scene downloads too, but with all the parts for people with slow connections, that does look a bit confusing, little box around each movie's links maybe would work.
That is really the only complaint about it that I can feel justified in talking about since they are daily updating, that collection will grow nicely over the months.
Quality is very good, some of the older movies have a 640x480 1500 bitrate as the highest option. The newer ones have 1280x720 3500 bitrate option.
The picture quality is just as good with 2400 high end, full zips, easy to navigate, click and download zips. Here are the numbers for January 2009 in updates to give you an idea of how their schedule works.
In January 2009: 20 new videos and 19 new picture sets. So that is a major positive for a newer site like this one.
Model wise, my main reason for joining was the Cameron Cruz/Mona Lisa content as she is one of my favorite models. There are more that I ended up really liking, like Vannah Sterling, Dorothy Black, Nicole Moore, Megan, and also opened my mind enough to check out the over 40 yrs old models like Berkley, Fallon and was very pleased with those as well. I would say there was only maybe 2-3 models that I didn't even look at, so the vast majority were attractive.
Considering that I rarely go for models much over 30, this was a risky site for me to join. I'm happy I did though, this will become a site that I will go back to in the future months. I also like that "new model per week" feature too. You kind of get the anticipation factor there to be sure to check out who the next new model is. All of the content is 100% exclusive from what I can tell and with the very good quality this is definitely a site that I will recommend for all, especially for those into the more mature models!
I talked to 1bystaff in email over the weekend, and expressed that not just me, but many others were frustrated with the removal of the archives. They replied back and at that time confirmed that the archive had been removed from the newly designed site. I do want to say that I think the new content is great in quality and update schedule, but the newer models are not near as established as the ones that fill the archives. They sent me a link to where the archives could still be found. That really wasn't a big help since the pic sets in the archive was DL fine, but the movie files were saying unauthorized access.
I get up this morning to see that 1byday has reverted to the previous website design. Archives, model categories are all back and the not so helpful search box has been removed. Oh and the regular login screen is back, so you won't have to login every 5 minutes.
I would like to think they listened to us on this and decided to go back, and that this isn't just a temporary fix to hush us up. If ain't broke, don't fix it! I personally thought the current format was very clean running on the new content, visually appealing and the options will always top nearly all sites.
Thanks 1byday for bringing back the archives, those archives always justified the higher price.
