I know all about the 21st Sextury network that lets you get two new sites each month you let your bill recur, but I just happened to see this site and wanted to see what it was about. It is a 21st Sextury site and is $29.95 per month, for what looks to be about 25 movies. Anyway, as I was scanning through the preview, at the bottom it has the normal list of 21st Sextury sites, but it says, "You get instant access to 33+ exclusive sites" On down the page it says, "Join now and you will get 2 additional websites per month that you are a member".
Now, maybe it is me but if it says that I get access to 33 sites instantly, that should mean I don't have to stay a member for months to get the other sites. One of the sites they show included is Sweet Sophie Moone, which is $29.95 itself. Maybe one of their webmasters could clear this up for us so we can take advantage of this if it is true?
Being an obsessive-compulsive person, this site became more of a nightmare for me than my original review stated. The longer I stayed on this site, the more, "Unable to load" messages I received when trying to download movies. I'm not for sure how this site gets high scores like it has. Just from my count, more than half of the videos on the exclusive sites they have, cannot be downloaded. If that isn't bad enough, some of the exclusive content they advertise is not exclusive at all. I mainly noticed this when I came to their "exclusive" site Whale Tail. Those videos have been available on several DVD sites for a year or so. I would know, the one with Micah Moore is one of my favorites.
Also, as time went on, it would only let me download 2 videos before making me sign in again, which requires login name, password, email address and security code. Also, my download speeds too a horrible dropoff. I switched to Opera just for the site since it was letting me get 4 downloads before having to login with Opera.
But, my download speed was now 4 downloads at one time, 100 kb/s on each one. I am on a 10M connection, the average total speed I get downloading is 1,200 kb/s, so I was only getting a total of 400, or only 1/3 the speed I normally get. I will hold hope that they iron these issues out, if not, this site will dropoff very fast.

Pros:
- Talk about a surprise site, around 1,200 pic/videos sets, and some of the best known Euro models
- TBP discount price of $19.95
- Pictures are up to 2,000 on high end and are in zip files
- Newer movies are 1280 high end, HD quality
- Close to 70% of the videos are solo, the other 30% are a close blend of b/g hardcore and g/g sex.
- Navigation works just fine, model names are slightly different than some sites, but by now, I have figured out all of the other names.
- Download speeds for me are slightly above average
- Also comes with bonus site Hannah's Honeypot, which is a pretty good site if you are into really innocent, skinny blondes.
Cons:
- Had trouble using a download manager on this site, but also have trouble on Sapphic Erotica, another site they own as well.
- Some of the content has that "Been there, done that" feel to it. Very planned out scenes.
- This probably isn't a con but the g/g sets will make you automatically think of Sapphic Erotica's newer scenes.
Bottom Line:
I joined this after re-joining Sapphic Erotica for probably the 10th time in the last several years. They were advertising this site Only Cuties and I had noticed in Sapphic Erotica's descriptions it would say, "Can also be seen on Only Cuties". So I took a shot.
The lower price always helps when going into a site that I knew very little about. I was surprised to see a nice blend of solo, hardcore and girl/girl videos. The updates are also very good with a picture set and a video set each day.
Navigation is similar to Sapphic Erotica, probably should say a little better than Sapphic Erotica. The models are mostly mid-level to top tier Euro models, which means very good.
The quality is a selling point with HD videos on the newer clips, even the older clips are not bad, again, if you have been on Sapphic Erotica, you know that their older videos are not bad either.
The pictures are pretty nice quality, 2000 being the highest option, there are three options, just like on Sapphic Erotica. I did run into a few slow downloads when downloading the pictures, but it wasn't very often.
I guess you could complain that there should be more boy/girl or even girl/girl content, but that isn't a very big complaint and it would be no reason to take points away.
I liked the site good enough to let it rebill for a month, those damn daily updates had me wondering if I was going to miss anything if I left the site. That is a good thing. Highly recommended!

Pros:
- High quality site that has a site full of content
- Videos checking in 1280 on high end over 5000 bitrates
- Pictures go as high as 4000 on high end and come in zip files as well
- Good download speeds for me, about 20% faster than my average download speed.
- Site navigation is good enough, which is important for a site with this much content
- Couple of updates per day
- Thank goodness, they have some models here that are well built, some of these artsy sites stick to those 102 pound models, but this one has some different sizes.
Cons:
- Videos can be a little on the tame side, not quite as bad as Met-Art
- Something that I am not real fond of, starting out nude. This for me takes away part of the fantasy
- Nothing close to hardcore, though they don't advertise that they do, wanted to mention it for anyone reading this.
- Price is too high at $34.95
Bottom Line:
I have mixed feelings about this site. I really like their quality, the large pictures and HD video, but keep in mind that the older sets of pics and videos are not this high quality. Also, if you are like me and like to see the girl clothed, then stripping down to nothing, you won't find much of that on this site.
I really didn't take much off my score for those negatives because the site is trying to stress the beauty of a naked female, not the beauty of a stripper!
The site navigation is easy, but you will still get the feeling that you are missing something, because there is so much content. I was happy with the download speeds, and the speed of the site, despite having so many things on each page.
I was also happy to see models that weren't tiny skinny, this to me is important when trying to show the beauty of a naked woman. And it was a worry I had before joining the site.
There also are some exotic looking models, which you rarely see on these art sites. Still, there could be more and need to be more. You will find some well-known models like Eufrat, Ariel and Suzie Carina. One slight complaint is that the g/g photo sets are just boring. I don't know how many more g/g sets I can look at of the women leaning against each other.
Oh and you can't use any download manager that I know of. I tried 3 different ones.
Overall for a month, I was satisfied, even with this high price, and I will recommend it for one month, maybe 2 times per year. Recommended!
This is the easiest thing for a man to use to his advantage. Examples.
I finish too fast with my wife, "Sorry, but you look so sexy, I just couldn't stop or slow down"
I take too long with my wife, "You know that college girl that all my co-workers says is so hot, that we hired? Well, she is actually really ugly and stinks, and just kind of took me out of the mood for sexual thoughts.
Finish just right, about 20 minutes is just right for my wife, "So, about that steak you were going to cook for me"
I appreciate the reply. I would like for you to go look at my reviews of DVD sites and see that I have your site as #3 behind Videobox and Videoz, and ahead of dozens of DVD sites. I really like your site, but the price makes my returns less frequent. The 10 month plan sounds great, but because of my profession, I never know when I may end up on business for 3 months at a time, and that would be pointless to pay in advance for something I may not use.
Why would you say that I haven't been on your site lately? I can see that you all haven't added hardly any Eva Angelina, not much Daisy Marie, not much Jenaveve Jolie, just by looking at the preview. My complaint was that you all aren't adding enough of the content I would want to justify the higher price. I still will join again in the future. But it will be more like every 6 months, before I was joining every 3. You all can do the math there. 4 times per year at $15 = $60, 2 times per year at $25 = 50. I had the same complaint with Videoz, so I wasn't just picking on your site. I just can't see paying as much as I would for a exclusive site, for a site that has almost no exclusive content.
No offense meant. Last, and hopefully you will think about this. You say that you all work hard, so do I, and that is my hard earned money I pay for your site with. It is a two way street. I appreciate your hard work though, and wish you all the best.
Thanks jd1961, I am going to try it out when my "glamour" month comes up in May. I did go to a TGP site and found some samples that looked pretty good and promising.
Hey badandy400, thanks for the reply, because of all the complaints, I guess here on PU and from regular customers, this site (Ultimate Surrender) and all others owned by kink.com, have dropped their DL limits. Which at least lets us know that our voices are being heard here at PU! I need to change my score for this site since they fixed that limit. Thanks again.
I would wear a The Best Porn or PU shirt. Maybe even get my username put on the back! Ok, that went too far, but sure, out here in California people wear downright rude, lewd shirts. I saw a girl the other day that had a shirt on that said, "I just got my clit pierced, wanna see?" And then there are the beach girls that wear the shorts that say, "Got Booty" on the butt cheeks, not that I look, mind you! We're the country that was raised on Jim Morrison, Ozzy Osbourne, sex sells, and well, I have no relatives that live within 2,000 miles of me to see me wearing it. Though my wife may want a PU thong, if those are available too.
That could be an idea. Thongs could be a big seller with the TBP or PU logo on them.

Pros:
- Raven is a beautiful woman, nice body, and is becoming one of my favorites.
- Videos are okay, WMV is a good 720 high end, but that damn slow bitrate is killing me at 800, Divx has that same resolution, but does bump the bitrate up to 1000, which is a little better.
- Pictures have pros and cons, 1240 is your high end, which isn't good enough, but they do come in zips, so I guess I will list it in pros.
- Download speeds are great for me, about 35% faster than my average.
- A little b/g, a bunch of g/g and a whole lot of solo, over 250 videos and 500 picture sets.
Cons:
- Just wished they would improve the bitrate, the resolution of the videos is fine, but chop-chop video bitrates are frustrating with a high end computer.
- Picture quality could be bumped up to 2000 on high end
- Price may be a little high, I've been a member for 3 months now, but did just cancel since I can't see paying $30 a month for 15 new updates.
- Maybe it is just me, but the vacation videos are pointless. If I wanted to watch vacations, I would watch National Lampoon movies.
Bottom Line:
Raven Riley has been one of my favorites for the last 2 years. I forget her ethnicity, believe it is Native American, Italian and something else. She has a great body, reminds me of a curvier Aneta Keys, though not as pretty as Aneta in the face.
She is playful in her videos which can be a little annoying. But you can always fast forward those parts. One of the best things about this site for me is the site works. It does exactly what it says it will do, the quality is above average as a whole, the downloads are fast, and I guess that is why it costs $30 a month.
You will get a blend of about 15% b/g, 35% g/g and 50% solo. Raven is excellent solo, and even reaches the milky orgasms in some of her videos. As with most solo sites there are some of those videos that you most likely won't fool with,Raven playing with dolphins and going on vacation.
She really seems like a sweet girl. I would really like to see the pictures raised to 2000 high end. It just seems like everything is a compromise in porn these days. Just like the videos, very good 720 on high end, but low bitrates.
I don't think I can recommend a solo site any higher than this one, as it gives you good updates and also good customer service if you need it. It is just that I am either wanting a lower price or better quality, or both would be nice. Even if only down to $19.99. Otherwise, it is a every 3 month join, since then you can get 45 new updates that you missed for $30. Still highly recommended!

Pros:
- Really nice niche site that is mostly women not old enough to be considered "old" but not young enough to be considered "teen" either.
- WMV videos are 640 high end and a hair over 1000 on the bitrates while the MPEGs come in at 640 high end with a better 2000 bitrate.
- Pictures are better than average, 1500+ on high end and come in zip files
- Nearly daily updates, and is consistent, even updates at almost the same time everyday.
- Download speeds coming just above average for me
Cons:
- Some of the women are a little closer to "old" than I was expecting, but hey, they still look nice, just isn't my thing.
- Maybe sense a true amateur feel with some of the videos as you can tell some of the women are a little shy or nervous, not that isn't nice to know they are real amateurs, but it can be frustrating.
- There is definitely more softcore than hardcore, and I include lesbian scenes in hardcore.
- I know this is a niche style site, but maybe a little more variety would be nice, throw a teen in there with a m/f couple and let the man wear her out or something like that.
Bottom Line:
This site was one that I had been meaning to join based on the reviews here at PU. Overall, I really like the site. The complaints I have with it are nitpicking at best. The pros for the site far outweigh those complaints.
If I were going to complain at all it would be for better quality videos. I know that 640 high end is very good, but, sometime, we are all going to have to move forward to HDV. This site would be an excellent one to move to HDV.
Most of the women are in an age range that I like, say 31-45, or they look younger than they are. There are a few older looking models, but they still at least carry some elegance about them. The video quality as mentioned is good enough, not bad enough to really complain or make it a con.
The pictures are really nice, maybe a little better than the videos. The 1500 high end resolution has been topped by some, but it is much better than what I had expected to see. The women really want to do this. You can tell it, it is very believable, but you do see a little timidness at times.
What you aren't going to find here is much exploration, which I expect from "older" people who enjoy being filmed. You just don't get a lot of threesomes or g/g scenes, which would make the site much more realistic.
I would say I downloaded maybe 120 videos that I plan on keeping, which is very high for me, and I recommend it. Probably 150 picture sets as well that I will keep. Recommended. I've been here for 2 months now, which is rare.
I actually liked this site as a member last year. The videos were being released 1 per day, and this is really amateur video. The camera work was troublesome at times, but for an amateur site, it was good enough. Not for sure if it really was user submitted clips or not, but for the price, $9.95, and amount of content, almost 500 full length clips, it was worth it back then. Then came August or so and no more updates that I can see. If you've never been a member and have $10 to spend, try it out, it really isn't bad at all. Videos are 640 high end with above average bitrates too.
I know that goldfish already told this, but this is to continue his thought. Sapphic Erotica has a new search feature that as far as I can tell works really well. I did get more results than expected when searching for, "Tribbing" which is my favorite lesbian activity to watch. Still, this is and has been the premier lesbian site for as far as I can remember, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. It is always good to see an established site, still working on improving themselves. I'm not even a big fan of lesbian sets since I have trouble imagining that I am a female, but this is one that I always have in my yearly rotation.
I was going to post a comment about the new updates. Also of note, the "new" Eve sets in 2008 are from 2005's archives, the old recycling trick. Check out the first month of the archives to see everything but one or two sets gone. And that one you mention of Eve that links to the blonde isn't the only one that does that, there is another back in June 2005 that does the same thing except to what looks like an older model.
I came back to get the December videos of Eve, and also, if you collect her videos from this site and download the .wmv files, there are several that do not work. I think I counted 9 in 2007 that will not let you control the fast forward or rewind, so I went back and got those in .mov files and those work fine. I still have not heard anything about what happened to Eve, but I have to wonder after seeing those wedding lingerie pictures, if maybe that was our hint? Strangely enough, the newest content I have seen of her is on the Teen Dreams Network on Sweet Eva, which is strange since most of those Sweet sites are not exclusive like advertised, but they have a couple of sets that I had never seen before and would like to think that I have most everything of her on the internet. One of the new ones she is in all-leather biker type outfit with a skulls bandanna on, pretty good, though she still looks way too sweet for that look!

Pros:
- About as much content as you will find on one site
- $9.95 TBP price!
- WMV files are a decent 480 on high end, with Divx files coming in a little higher at 540, WMV have 1000 bitrate, Divx have 2000.
- Many old stars that you can't find anywhere else, over a dozen b/g clips of Adrianne Sage as example
- Has nearly 900 clips that are exclusive to their network, plus over 2,000 non-exclusive DVDs
- Has screenshots for all videos and also has a picture section that has more well known models who do not do videos
Cons:
- First, this is the same site I received months ago when I signed up for CFNM Exposed, believe it was under the name Ultimate Sex Pass. There are problems here.
- No zips for the pictures and you can't even use a download manager to get the pictures.
- Good luck on the exclusive videos. For example, CFNM Exposed has 33 clips, well, 17 you can download, the other 16 you can only stream, when you try to download it says, "Unable to load file"
- Those damn updates where they give you one clip from a DVD one day, then you get the next a month later.
- Login screen is a hassle, half the time the security code doesn't even show up clear enough to type in.
Bottom Line:
Talk about a site that doesn't know what it wants to be. This is a site that I had known as Ultimate Sex Pass. With some added features, they have the Cumisha Jones collection here now, and they have the Stracy Stone collection here as well, and those two alone were worth the 10 bucks for me.
After that, bring some Tylenol, you are going to need it. First, every clip you click on to download, it starts loading it to stream. You have to click pause, then go down to the download link. Then about 1/5th of all clips I tried to download said, "Unable to load" and let me download an invalid .html file.
Things can get better or worse depending on your patience. There is A LOT here to like. I love the "older" stars of the late 90s that they have here. They also have some stars that you rarely see on the well known DVD sites like Adrianne Sage. The navigation isn't bad. They have a "view all pornstars" link that takes you to a model index that works just as expected. They have their exclusive sites at the bottom of the main page, you just click and go, and some of these are really good, like the "At Work" series.
Then there is the bad, some of those really great looking models on those exclusive sites, their movies give you the, "Unable to load" message.
With a little time and work this site could challenge the big boys! As it is now, it is worth a month, you are sure to find some model you forgot about. I recommend for one month, and only hope they work out the kinks!
I was on Misha Online just last week, looking around to see if I noticed many changes. They have my all-time favorite Sandra Shine set, real sassy looking outfit, looks like she is in a high rise apartment in Chicago. I don't even remember when I was a member, but had been meaning to join, just to get that set and see what else they have.
I was hoping you wouldn't take my reply wrong, and think I was having an attitude. I'm not really into the high tech computers myself. Just bought a new one this past Christmas and went ahead and got the bigger monitor. And thought I would share my experiences with it compared to the more regular monitors.
It also could be the bitrate of the videos that is causing the blurriness or not clear parts. I just joined porn.com the other day, they have pretty nice resolution 640 high end, but their WMV are only 1,000k bitrate, their DIVX files are the same resolution but are 2,000k bitrate and look much nicer. The bitrate seems to be where the smoothness of the video shows.
As I was telling apoctom, this new computer that my wife bought me for Christmas is a real monster of a computer, it has the top end video card in it and over 4000 RAM, so I probably am going to get clearer videos just by default because the computer is so fast and powerful.
I also think the file type can make a difference. Which is why I think in the TBP reviews you can notice where there take away for sites not giving many download options of file types. Try some DIVX files with a high bitrate and see if they don't look clearer to you. I'm starting to think WMV files are no longer the best.
Last, the bitrate also effects the size of the file, I had forgot to mention that in my last post. Those two videos that I used as examples in the other post have a large difference in bitrates as well. Both are Eva Angelina clips. Fabulous has a 4,586k bitrate which is very fast, but Don't Hide it, Divide It has a 7,540k bitrate which is extremely fast. I had read your post about the 1byday re-releases, that is what they are doing to those, raising the resolution and raising the speed of the bitrate.
I'm not quite technically savvy enough to say that a video card would make a huge difference, but I know a video card can make a difference in the frames per second that a video game runs at, which makes it smoother. That could be something you could look into. A good video card doesn't cost much over $100, and are a snap to put in, no technical ability required. But do try that with the DIVX clips and let me know if those look clearer than the WMV ones, so I can make sure I'm not losing my mind! Talk to you later.
Hey Apoctom, the monitor I am using is a LG L246WP-BN, I stumbled across it around Christmas for $549. I've been really happy with it, except it isn't that practical for everyday uses. Like typing emails, or even posting here, the resolution is so high 1920x1200, that you have to up the text size to the largest just to be able to read it. It makes some sites look strange too, like the General Entertainment sites, the actual calendar that shows their updates only takes up about 1/4th of the screen.
My wife has a 17 inch regular LCD not wide, that works better for everyday tasks, and is what I use for most of the things I do on the internet. My entertainment computer had a GeForce 8600 GTS video card in it, and really it worked great, but I was caught up in the 9600 GT and recently upgraded to it. Also have 4GB of DDR RAM.
Not really for sure why I went this high end since I'm not really much of a PC gamer, preferring console games, but it sure makes my videos look nice!
Also, if you get some of those high resolution pictures like on Babelicious or Met-Art, it looks like you have a poster on your desk with the 24 inch monitor. Thanks for the reply.
I don't think it is something Videobox is doing. My understanding is that they buy the rights to the DVD then post just as it is on the DVD. Some studios use 640 high end as DVD resolution, others use 720 on the high end. As far as I know VB doesn't alter the videos at all. I'm not for sure with their multi-updates per day that they would even have time to alter the scenes.
I think the difference you are looking at between high and DVD is 480x352 is the top "high" quality. 720x480 is the top "DVD" quality. The average DVD quality clips are 640x480.
There really could be a difference depending on the size and type monitor you have. I have two computers, my wife uses one for business, it has a 17 inch regular view LCD monitor, on it, I can't tell much difference between the high and DVD videos. On my entertainment computer, I have a 24 inch HD widescreen monitor and I can tell a big difference between the high and DVD clips.
Thanks Damon for the response. To give you an idea of how long I have been a member of the 21st Sextury sites, I used to talk to a rep there named Peter by email, that was back when you all first started having the problems with DDos attacks.
What is happening to me now is that I can't even get the site to open to join. I'm Porn Users biggest Eve Angel fan and had been planning to join Club Sandy and Pix and Video in a combo to get the newer sets that I don't have of Eve.
I will send an email with my IP address to the email address you listed, that is the same thing I had done before with Peter.
My wife likes porn, but not anything that comes off as too hardcore. She was a bikini model in college when I met her, as are a fourth of the female students at UCLA. She wasn't really open about liking porn, partly because she came from a conservative family, not from America.
Which could be the first difference we find, I would think women from North America, the UK, and probably South America are probably more open to porn as it almost becomes part of the women liberation, that "If men can watch it, why can't we?"
The main thing, both people in the relationship must be at least somewhat secure in themselves and the relationship. I can remember when my wife noticed that I had taken a liking to Eve Angel. At first my wife asked me what it was about her that I liked. Once I explained that a lot of the attraction was Eve's love of the camera, the eye contact with the camera, my wife started acting like I was her camera and would do these same things that had drawn me to Eve.
Most of all for our male members. What I find most important when dealing with watching porno with a female is to make some non-sexual comments about the woman on the screen, like, "She has pretty eyes, doesn't she?" After several years, my wife's favorite females are similar to mine. The one difference being, my wife does seem to like women very different than her as well. She especially likes big busted women, where as my wife is more along the lines body wise of an average bust.
You can find out some interesting things about each other by adding porn to a healthy relationship.
Just wondering about the price of 1byday, I was checking it out to see what all new had been added, and noticed on the join page that it says $29.95 per month, with the dollar sign instead of the Euro symbol. I don't know why I would make a big deal about $6, but was curious about it.
I wanted to add a little to go with the reviews of the 3 413 Productions sites. One complaint that I forgot to mention is that Kelly and Porn Fidelity do not have billing companies, which I'm not a fan of at all. Oddly enough, Lana Lotts has netbilling, which isn't as good as ccbill or paycom, but it is better than paying the site directly.
Also, I really did think I was going to get Porn Fidelity with Kelly's solo site. The TBP listing says 1 bonus site Lana Lotts, but when you click on company sites, Kelly's says (+4) out from it, as does Lana's.
That I could find both Lana and Kelly's sites do only come with 1 bonus site and that is the other, join Kelly you get Lana, join Lana you get Kelly.
To continue the confusion even more. Lana's site is $19.95, Kelly's is $29.95 and you get the exact same content with them. Which makes me wonder if it is just an oversight since they don't have a billing company handling the money. Either way, if these 3 came together it would be one of the better company based networks on the internet. Maybe their webmaster will see this and consider it? It reminds me of Rachel Aziani's site and the sites that come with it.
Back a year ago, as a member on Club Sandy and PixandVideo as a combo package, I went to the sites one day to see them give me the page that says "Website not available". I talked to a customer service rep that time, he had me send a traceback or something of that sort, to show my IP, and he fixed it the next morning. It had something to do with people stealing logins, and multiple people signing in with that login. I guess the traceback would somehow show that my login and pass was stolen not shared, since he did fix it.
Now, after months away from any of the 21st Sextury sites, I go with the plan to get the combo of CS and PV, and the site won't come up, says, "Site unavailable". I went over to proxify.com, put Club Sandy in and it came right up, by changing my IP address.
I understand that there are people that steal logins and passwords, but I'm not one of them, with probably a dozen receipts in my email from 21st Sextury sites as proof. I take it they are banning groups of IP addresses. So, thanks for nothing 21st Sextury, you just lost a customer. Strange that I've never had this problem with any sites except the 21st Sextury ones.
