No worries - the DRM was a serious detractor on GGG, it is about bloody time they removed it. I was just making a little bit of stink because they recently were removing it (and finally finished) and since porn users sorts the reviews by when the review was written, not when the reviewer was a member... well you get the point - so many thanks for updating the review, much appreciated and many props for not getting pissed at me for complaining - other people might have told me to blow it out my ass, lol
And my review is very much outdated at this point... I need to rejoin and re-review it! :-D

Yes - DRM is definitely a major flaw for a site and agreed, shame on them - but much love to them for finally seeing the light! I just didn't want users to be scared away from a site that has so bizarre but quite interesting porn. Thanks for updating the review :-)

I completely agree with your distaste for DRM, it is a huge pain in the ass and users need to be warned of it when it is being used. My point of posting the comment was two part - first part being that I really like German Goo Girls and don't want users to run away because the latest review (your at the time of posting the comment) basically screamed "DRM, run away! run away!" (prior to being updated), and secondly, just to draw attention to the fact that this interesting site has finally gotten rid of its biggest flaw.

Sadly this is the problem with 6 month old reviews - GGG went DRM-free officially on November 27th, 2008.
I see that you note this in the pros, but the only thing taken away from a cursory glance a user would be that the site uses DRM, and that is simply not the case. It would be appreciated if the Cons were changed to "Used to use DRM" as that would be accurate.

That is wonderful news about the end of the reign of DRM at GGG! I've been waiting for that day for many years, and have signed up multiple times despite it (and as I have ways, tedious ways but still ways, around it).
As for your Con about the video style - I certainly understand how you could hate it. It is extremely harsh, makes much use of being hand held and the sets and costuming are aggressively unpolished. However, having watched years of John Thompson's work, I assure you this is very intentional and the camera operators are quite skilled. Despite making use of the mobility of a hand held camera (shooting extreme low angles, between appendages, et cetera) rarely do their videos exhibit that nauseating shaking and lost sense of purpose (aiming randomly around the scene). So my point is simply that they have developed this look and maintain it quite diligently - while I would never photograph a scene this way myself, I fear GGG wouldn't quite be the same without that style. It is the type of pornography that still manages to polarize people, and that is admirable in a society that is so numb to so much.
Anyway, thanks for the interesting review and the good news.

Try a download acceleration utility (DownThemAll! for Firefox is great). Some sites basically require it to get descent download speeds. Though many sites don't support it all, which is unfortunate.

Damn - seriously?? That is fucking lame - if I were you, I'd take those $20 and spend it on an IP spoofing program so you can port through an American IP, lol - you know, just to spite them :-D

Sweet, I was hoping they'd remove the DRM from GGG soon as I saw that one of John Thompson's other sites, GGG Sex Box - went DRM-free back in September.
Any guesstimate as to how many videos were DRM-free when you were a member?
Btw, I had run into the corrupted uploads when I was member as well, but I found if you emailed customer service they usually fixed it within a few days. Of course, if they are re-converting the older DVDs, they might not worry about an older corrupted file.

Haha - yeah, I can imagine the explanations might get interesting. I must admit the DRM is a big pain in the ass, I too would pay more for avoiding that hassle - I dunno about twice as much, but 10 bucks more for sure!

Their entire network was DRM based when I was a member, I'd be surprised if that changes anytime soon, but there are ways around it. My favorite is a program called TuneBite. It simply records the copy protected video while it is playing. Do be sure to have turned off your screen saver and any programs that might make noise - as it'll record those noises as well. Plus it is a super processor hog - but once its done, you've got yourself the content without the DRM. It can also queue up the video files - I generally would start it recording when I went to bed, easy way to convert 10 videos.

The DRM license on your computer will expire after awhile and it will ask you for the username/pass again - it usually happened to me about once a week - sometimes 2 weeks.

Status: |
Was a member approx. 1 month prior to this review.
|
Pros: |
*Extreme Bukkake / Multiple Cumshots
*Gang-Bangs / Group Sex
*Full Length DVDs
*Massive Amounts of Content
*Relatively Hi-Res Video (400 x 300, ~800MB, 1 HR, One Part)
*Video Trailers |
Cons: |
*DRM (Copy-Protected Video)
*No Search Engine
*Slow Updates |
Bottom Line: |
GermanGooGirls.com is niche site that features the most extreme Bukkake content available - bar-none. The models are subjected to very rough sex and are covered in cum before, during and after the sex. The video is filmed in a gritty, on-the-scene. Lighting is from the camera’s on-board light, providing harsh shadows and surprising detail.
John Thompson, the creator / cameraman of German Goo Girls has pulled every speck of glamour out of porn and thrown it out the window. The models are dominated to the extreme usually without too much S&M equipment and the models always there enjoying it. Models getting held down and pounded by a guy wearing a Jason-esque Hockey mask is standard for GGG.
Unfortunately all of the dialogue is in German - but sex is the majority of the video anyway. Generally each video features multiple models and sometimes ridiculous orgies as well, all the while focused on Bukkake.
The problem is that all its videos are Digitally Rights Managed (DRM, aka Copy-Protected) - if you quit - good bye videos.
So is GGG worth it? If you like Bukkake - hell yes, there is nothing else like it. If nothing else, you will remember John Thompson’s style forever – and if something is that influential, it has to be pretty important, doesn’t it? |

"A Studied Casualness", good term - yeah, that might not be up my alley, but I'll have to check it out none-the-less. I'm certainly quite used to casual style in videos, I'm just usually less of a fan in photos. I guess, I won't know for certain until I browse the site for a while. Thanks for all the info :-)

Thanks for the clarification - it validates my estimation of the content from their preview pages. I thoroughly understand how you've tired of the "perfect" model look, it can get boring. Years ago I was a member of both MET Art and Hegre Art (back when it was called the Hegre Archives) with year long subscriptions to each. By the time the year was up, just about the last thing I wanted was to look at another glamour girl posing in a window. So I joined a few ATK sites, and that was a nice departure from the glamour model look.
As for the technical aspects of the photography - I guess I'm a bit of stickler about that. A number of people like the poor photography that sometimes shows up on Suicide Girls (which I've been a member of off and on for years) - it always drives me nuts. It isn't just a matter of the photos being crisp and throughly in focus - modern autofocus is so superb that the camera will handle that just fine as long as there is even remotely enough light. An old Sony I had actually projected a laser matrix in front of it and would autofocus in nearly pitch black.
Even with "grit" porn, I expect a certain artistic focus. So you want to do aggressively unorthodox photos and put the photographer's feet in the photo? Fine - but make that style a continuing theme throughout the site. In the preview photos I see photos that could use much color balancing, plus others with washed out colors, flash shadows and so on. Many of the photos look like they want to be smoother, they just aren't.
If you want it to be gritty - photograph it at high ISOs. Throw various objects in the extreme foreground that we have to look past. Give us bizarre angles, like overhead or underneath shots. Photograph using just the on camera flash - or light the scene with a TV. There are tons of fun ways to look amateur while being professional - I just get frustrated by content that looks professional with some amateur seeping through.
Frankly, early Hegre Art stuff had a lot of that problem, he has come a long way over the years. I don't know how young Girls Out West is - maybe they too will improve with time, or maybe they know what they are doing and it just won't ever be quite to my taste. I'll join at some point in the future and try it out, a number of the models do look rather interesting.

Looks like an interesting site, I may have to check it out sometime in the future. Though it appears to have the same basic downfall of the amateur style that Abby Winters has, many cute models but very, very few beautiful models. At least as far as the photos they put in their tour.
The photography also appears to be sub par in technical skill when compared to Simon Scans or Abby Winters (in my opinion the big two in this genre) and your description seems to confirm this. (Am I right about that?) Still, photo shoots with less of an agenda can sometimes capture some very interesting moments. Plus, the site does seem to have a huge variety of models - more varied than either of the aforementioned sites - so that is appealing.

To be honest, I've probably only subscribed to about 5 sites that use Epoch - and probably damn near a hundred that use CCBill (far and above my favorite), so my experience with checkout deals has probably been rather rosy by comparison. Still - I'm going to start checking closer on all the trial offers I see on checkouts (up-sells or unsavory swindles) and I'll try to determine the owners. I'm hoping this opt-out trials trend will die out soon when more and more customers start complaining about it online - but I'll report any sketchy ones I see so both users and webmasters alike can be aware of what is happening on the checkout screens.

I too have seen it on Epoch billing pages, but in this case it was BillFame.com, though interestingly enough the trial fee was billed through a different site called PABill.com. They are both owned by Dream Invest Ltd. So I guess they choose whatever name they like, I dunno.
If the billing companies are doing this without the consent of the webmasters that is extremely unsavory, but generally the trial sites seem to be owned by the same owner of the sites that I'm subscribing too, so I'm guessing it is an option the webmaster chooses. I would love for the webmaster to chime in and explain the mechanics of practice - but I'm guessing that probably isn't going to happen.
