Be careful to watch your credit card. This is part of Incredible Pass who is notorious for overcharging members.

Pros: |
It's Plyboy!
Decent prices
Loads of photos
Good download speed
All models are just what you would expect from Playboy
Exclusive, other than magazine of course
Some videos, obviously not seen in magazine
Different photo size options |
Cons: |
NO ZIPS
Movies not downloadable
Does not give access to other Playboy sites
Must call to cancel, see Bottom Line
Navigation can be a pain
Does not support download manager, well most of them |
Bottom Line: |
First of all it is Playboy, so you should expect HOT women in non degrading photos. It is pretty much an extension of the magazine. The photos look nice and there certainly is a lot of them.
Playboy is against downloading of their content, I was told this over the phone. And so far they have lived up to this. This is an extremely hard site to download from. Download Them All for Firefox is the only method I have found so far, other than manually clicking "save as" for thousands of photos. The videos can not be downloaded so far either. So obviously there will be no handy zip files to grab.
Also, canceling is extremely invasive and personal. If you try to cancel you MUST call them and TALK to a real PERSON, not a machine and not on the website. Of course you can join conveniently over the net with your credit card, they dont want to scare you away from joining. But, they do not want you to leave, they will have a woman talk to you and try to sell you on a discounted rate. She worked on me! :) The discounted rate is 10 bucks a month. So it is easy to stay here and end up forgetting about it for awhile and still be getting charged because you dont want to tell a woman with a sexy voice "no."
If they would change these two things it would be worth another 20 points, but as it stands the content is not worth these hassles. Dont get me wrong though, the photos are nice and I love looking at them. They just need to work on costumer friendliness. |

There is solo and a little soft content. For the solo content look under the category "Masturbation."

So you have a 15 MBit connection, is this at home? That would certainly be nice, I can only get 3 here. Usually bits are used for connection speeds and such and bytes are used for file sizes. I would not call my self all that technical either though :)

Messmer, careful on the speed rating. The way you denoted the speed it would be faster than a 15K rpm fiber channel hard drive, which most like non of us have. I am assuming you meant KByte/s, but be careful with the difference between KByte and KBit. It is safest to type it out rather than risk confusing people on something as important as speed. Sorry to give you a hard time, this is a petpev of mine! :)

So far you are the only person who has reviewed this site, but you give it a 100. People will not trust this. To give a site a 100 you need to provide some very good reasons for it. Give us much more detail, otherwise your review is pretty much useless. Tell us how much content is there, customer service, resolutions, bit rates, update schedules, familiar models, anything! We need to see much more, especially to trust a 100 review. What you posted would be more appropriate for a comment rather than a review in my opinion. Dont be shy to share information, that is what this site is for!

It does work just as he said. If you download it you get to try it out, it works like a tour page with movie downloads that do not show the how movie. I will tell you though that you cant move the girl around the screen and it can get in the way at times. It also sucks system resources, sometimes a little too much. Personally I have had a lot of problems with my copy of it. I have had to redownload it a few times. It is pretty cool, but it sucks that once you cancel you lose anything you did not pay extra for....so it is find like a DRM movie, you lose it unless you pay more. The concept it cool, but they should let us keep the stuff that is downloaded in my opinion.

Try emails the company and ask them why there is a difference. Let us know if there is any resolve.

I say that mine are around average, I do like to put the technical specs in. Not everyone does this, so I am a little above average on that point. I am trying to get them to look a little better, be more organized, and develop a style.

That is a very good point that I forgot about. Credit card processors only allow a certain number of charge backs per month to a vendor before they either fine them or boot them off. This is to prevent people from consistent ripping people off. This is why more vendors want to refund your money rather than make you fight it. They hate to see the money go, but it is better than having a large number of charge backs. It is a mechanism to help protect customers.
The issue here is that I am not sure if all the charges come from the same company. The cross sales could come from different account to protect the company from the results of fraud prevention.
Thank you asmith for this comment post. I am glad it has been said, only sorry I did not think to post it earlier.

Do you have the bit rates and resolutions for the SD and HD videos? The more of these detail we can get the better.

If you join any site with HD videos please let us know who they look compared to what is on this site. How many videos are there in HD versus SD?

I am certainly not complaining that it is there. I think it is great when sites post extra things like this, the more content the better. I am just mentioning it for people who do not want to spend a bunch of time downloading something of far less quality than would be expected based on the file size and sell up the site did about the videos.
I did not think much for the extra stuff either. They really do need to run some compression on it, H.254 would be nice to cut out some of the junk and filter the noise from the archaic VHS. Thank the porn gods the days of VHS are passed!
I have not downloaded everything yet...was there anymore of these oer-rated VHS tapes on here?

Okay, you might have made a separate point, but you did not provide us with any of these details you would be able to provide use with. I am not attacking you, after all check out my review of Videobox!

First I will say that I like the site as well. But a 99 is a bit on the high end.
I must ask if you have been to other sites? You say "I signed up for a trial and lived on there for 2 year plus"....so does this mean you have not viewed other sites? To me it would seem that way. Twistys is the first site I can remember joining way back in the day, I thought they were the best thing ever, but once I looked around I found some great stuff. It is hard to take away from the magic of the first, and I will always be a Twistys fan, but there are better site out there.
Anyone wanting to list a site at 97 or higher better have an intimate knowledge of the site. You claim to have lived there, so give us the details that comers and goers might miss...actual amount of content, resolutions, bitrates, and other things that stand out.
Please keep in mind that 99s and 100s catch a lot of hell around here! As you have seen already, you will need to defend your rating. And it is a good way to kill your trust ratings! :)

Internet Download Manager works in a similar way. Once it is going it works just fine, but it needs to allow a full download to complete before it remembers everything. That way it is assured that they will all work. If the download can not complete then it does not attempt to use bad data on the rest of the downloads, risking getting me kicked off the site!

I can agree with this. I was excited to find some Amy Reid content from when she was brand new that was not floating around everywhere! This seems to be a "back in the day" sort of site. I agree with your actual review when you said this is not a good site to be used as a first porn site.

Pros: |
Good amount of content
Easy to download, batch downloading
Great download speed. 40 MBit/s
Files named nicely
Nearly 3000 Zip sets
Close to 1000 videos
Newer videos look nice
$15 price is not bad |
Cons: |
Very unprofessional
Picture on the small side, except for the newest
Site is a pain to get around
Mostly couch scenes
Download managers are not fully suported |
Bottom Line: |
The price for this site makes it would a look. It is possible to download the zips in a batch download for you picture lovers. This makes download all 3000 zips pretty easy. The speeds are not bad either, I saw 40 MBit/s.
Be careful with download managers. They work to download the content once it is in queue, but if you use the manager to scan the site you will be locked out for browsing too many pages too quickly. This is not a huge issue though because they reset the lockout list every 15 minutes.
The videos vary on size and bit rate, but the newer half at least is 640x480 and around 1000 KBit/s. There are some that are half that, but those are older and that is usually to be expected.
The newest photo set, March 23, as about 100 photos in it and they are 1600x1067. They look nice, but of course the older ones are smaller 683x512.
A good portion of the videos are "audition" videos, then some masturbation videos. There is not a lot of G/G and some B/G, but not much. Some of the videos make you open separate browsers even when clicking the download link, and there are other things that make the site navigation a little of a pain.
They also claim to be the first to shoot Amy Reid, I am a big fan of her! :)
If you are bored on day and want a site that does not cost an arm and a leg, and do not mind less than perfect content then this site would be recommended. But if you want top rate photos and well planned scenes then you should look elsewhere |

Pics too big for screen. The first I have heard someone complain about resolution being too high. Use a resizing program, solve all these issues. Others of us with high res monitor like the larger pictures!
I must agree with the fast stripping though...slow it down a bit. Add more pictures if you have to. Lead up to the prize and it will be more enjoyed. Kinda like your mouth watering as you try to open a candy bar wrapper, you know it is coming and you know it will be good, it just make you want it that much more!

But it can not argued that HD does not have more potential than SD formates. I will admit that I have seen some "HD" junk and some SD beauty. A lot of that would be the type of HD equipment used and the editing after words. If I use a good camera with a large CCD and shoot in SD and edit the video well it will look wonderful, and if I use a low end HD camera that simply crammed more pixels on the same CCD and just post it after it is shot then it will not look as good. There is a difference between High Resolution and High Definition, as well as a difference between me shooting a scene and someone shooting the same scene and actually knows what is going on. Any one can by a HD camera, but no everyone can use it.
Basically, you are right to an extent. I bet those sites that have great SD videos would knock your socks off if they used good HD equipment. All else equal, HD is better. Well, other than the size of the files! :)
