Excellent warning.
I've never heard of Aeron Pay, but if I see it listed anywhere, I hope to remember your warning and stay away.
PU and TBP should look into this, and issue a warning that the PU/TBP sites are not doing business with any of the sites using Aeron Pay.
And the PU and TBP sites need to change their practice of just delisting a company without giving a warning.
They can make it simple, such as "PU and TBP no longer do business with these sites", as a hint/reminder that the sites are doing something wrong.
Because if PU and TBP just delist a site, without any warning or explanation, some other members might fall into the trap.

Pros:
-Easy login. No captcha required.
-Can stream and/or download the scenes.
-Multiple definitions for streaming and download: low (for mobile), medium, high, super high (1080p).
-Long time before site timeout due to inactivity.
-Professionally shot videos: good camera-work, good focus, good lighting, good colors, good sound control.
-Models are young Japanese, late teens to early twenties, attractive.
Cons:
-Sex toys are used extensively in the scenes. Both dildos and vibrators (some people say that a dildo can be a vibrator, but that's another topic).
-Squirting is messy (and smelly, I would assume). Clinical studies have shown that the liquid spraying from a girl's pussy is pee.
-This site gives you multiple long shots of the girl's pussy; but after a long time, it gets boring.
-The search needs to be improved. It has a clunky interface, and it gives poor search results when you enter a model's name.
For multiple reasons:
The Squirting Virgin site has easier navigation. You can find the videos of any model much easier.
The Squirting Virgin site videos have more heat and imagination to the sex.
The Squirting Virgin videos have a large element of sadomasochism. As I wrote in my recent Squirting Virgin review, the stunt cock is the master, and the attractive model is his sex toy to be used and abused and pleasured. The guy fucks the model like a pro. Hard and fast and long. So the fantasy element is well-played.
In the Shiofuky site, you don't get the feeling that the guy/guys are masters who are fucking the models harshly. In fact, many of the scenes show little or no fucking. The girls are being pleasured by the dildos and vibrators and fingers, and then they squirt.
I think the harsh fucking which the Squirting Virgin site emphasizes, adds a lot of heat to the scenes, and the Shiofuky scenes are mild by comparison.
The Shiofuky site is more for voyeurs who enjoy watching girls reaching orgasm.
The Squirting Virgin site adds an element of harshness, along the lines of a Pierre Woodman video, where the guy is going to fuck the brains out of the model. The girl's enjoyment is secondary, she gets pleasure because she is being used as nature intended her to be used.
I'm describing the fantasy that the male watcher is supposed to be experiencing. Although some PU members might disagree with my theory or words.
In other words, the Squirting Vigin site emphasizes heat over mildness.
Maybe I'm becoming blase to porn. Because at one time, seeing a girl squirting, by itself, would have seemed a shocking event to me. But now, it's just another porn niche.
The Pierre Woodman videos (Woodman Casting X and Wake Up N Fuck) feature hardcore pussy and ass pounding, intense fingering, forcible cock sucking, a lot of slapping by the stunt cock of the woman's face and breasts and ass cheeks.
The Woodman videos are not squirting videos.
The Squirting Vigin site is similar to the Pierre Woodman videos, with the addition of female squirting.
The Shiofuky site is just squirting videos, with little hardcore pussy or ass pounding. So it's much milder than the Squirting Virgin site, or the Pierre Woodman videos.
The Pierre Woodman sites are expensive compared to Squirting Virgin or Shiofuky. But they are worth the extra money if you enjoy harsh treatment of women with sex.
The Squirting Virgin site features the harsh treatment of women with sex, for a lower price: but that site is small, and it stopped updating years ago. However, the Squirting Virgin site also offers access to the Teen Mega World network, which has a massive amount of hardcore teen videos in different niches.
The Shiofuky site has 336 scenes, but I found them kind of boring. If they were more exciting I would give Shiofuky a higher score. But they also need to improve the search engine, and make a few other improvements to make the site easier to navigate.
Giving Shiofuky a score of 82. That is very subjective. If you find the scenes interesting, the site would score higher.
If you find the videos boring, you could score lower than I did.
I'd be disappointed as heck if I got a sub to Shoplyfter and didn't have access to most of the rest of the Team Skeet network.
I believe that quality and quantity both count as major factors in the value of a site or network.
If you are limited to access to Shoplyfter only, which only updates once a week with a new video, and has a limited backlog of videos (about 130+), all following the same repetitive formula, I wouldn't even rate the site as high as 70.
But the limited access you get to the Team Skeet network makes this site a poor value.
I seem to remember (my memory is poor) that I've watched a number of the Shoplyter videos. None of them impressed me very much. Certainly not enough to join this as a separate membership, without also getting access to most of the rest of the Team Skeet network.
But your review is excellent: you give the overall rating for the site, and the detailed cons.
This site is part of the Team Skeet network.
Some PU members have complained they have problems connecting to the Team Skeet network: very slow connection speeds that make streaming or downloading difficult.
Did you personally experience any slow connection speeds to the Shoplyfter, or any of the other Team Skeet sites you might have visited?
Also, what do you think about the recent Team Skeet re-design (if you accessed it)?
The re-design is supposed to make the network appear fresher, more appealing: but I find it makes site navigation harder.
The site states Eufrat is 18 (on page 3 of the free tour). But the nude.eu shows her date of birth as: Born [dd-mm-yy]: 07-04-1985.
She is a lovely model, with many fine photosets posted at a huge number of sites, as well as a lot of videos.
I am not taking anything away from this lovely model, but why do porn sites have to state their models are 18, when the models themselves have been working in the industry for years already, and most pornophiles (except the newbies) will recognize the models are years past the 18 mark?
It's stupid to post such an obvious lie.
Again, this is a lovely model, she looked fantastic at 18, she still looks fantastic. I've been a long-time fan of hers, but I don't think it helps her or this porn site by stating such an obvious lie about her age. I expect a little fantasy in my porn, but at least try to make it more believable or easier to swallow.
End of rant.
And as Drooler says, please nominate this site for an early review by TBP (go to the TBP page for this site, and vote for an early review).
I think the economic downturn has really hit the porn industry. Seems like a lot of sites are either dying or no longer updating, much more than what was happening in the past.
Excellent review, as usual.
You mention that the videos are not terribly exciting.
I don't think I've found a single softcore site that has exciting videos.
But there must be an audience for softcore videos, because most softcore sites put a lot of time and money into making them.
My opinion: softcore videos are a waste of time and money. And I usually don't bother watching them.
Which is strange. Because I remember back in the 1980s, when I did enjoy the softcore movies from Europe, mainly from France. But some of the actresses were stunning, so that was the main draw. And nudity in movies was much less common back then, or should I say it had a brief golden age of softcore porn.
This is from the same company/partner/WhatEverYouCallIt behind Amour Angels. This new site is tiny compared to Amour Angels. And I'm guessing that both sites have a similar approach to photos and videos.
So if you like the style of Amour Angels, join that site, because it has a lot more content (models, photosets, videos) compared to Showy Beauty.
This is a new softcore glamour site, apparently. But the preview pages need to show some sample photos and short videos clips to give some idea of what the site contents are like. How high quality are the photos and videos?
Review is well written and interesting. I am thinking of hiring you to write at least some of my reviews, from now on. Especially since we seem to have joined many of the same sites. Lol.
I did a review of White Ghetto about a year and a half ago. I gave it a score of 87, not because I liked the site itself, but because I thought the network access was worth a score of 87.
Quoting from my review of White Ghetto (posted 07-06-09):
"-Actually, I looked at vid caps of every single model at the site, and I did not find a single model that I thought really attractive. The best that could be said for any of them is that some of them are OK looking.
-I did not download a single video clip from this site.
-That is my personal taste. Maybe other PU members might find some of the models attractive, or the action interesting or exciting or whatever."
So if you find the models or clips at White Ghetto attractive, then you are one of the other PU members I was talking about. :) (Smiley, friendly, I'm a nice guy).
But at $9.95/month, I think the network is a very good value. A lot of content, a lot of variety, and some interesting clips that should satisfy a wide variety of different tastes, for a very reasonable price.
The navigation could be improved, the search could be improved, but I have been a member of this network several times.
I am still a member of Devils Film, and I get access to all the sites in the network.
The preview pages (tours) at the network sites should really be re-designed and cleaned up to make it easier to see what bonus sites you are getting with a membership to any one site. It would make the potential customer understand what is being offered, and would be a stronger selling point.
At different sites, in the previews, some of the bonus sites are listed. At other sites, none of the bonus sites are listed as a bonus.
The preview section of a pay site is one of the selling points of that site. And this network does a poor job of using their previews.
My guess is that if you do join the network through Silverstone DVD, you will get access to all the network sites.
But to be 100% certain, you should email the network, or Silverstone DVD, to get an official answer.
Rarely, things happen that appear to make little sense. So it could happen that if you join through Silverstone DVD, you could find that it is a standalone site, instead of a gateway to the entire network. But my guess is that if you join through any of the network sites, you currently get access to all the network sites.

Pros:
-DRM: none
-Site timeout: none
-Download limits: none
-Easy login: requires username and password, no captcha
-Download: low or high resolution WMV files
-Streaming: low or high resolution
-Large number of attractive models
-Models have very little piercings, tattoos
-Models are clearly identified in each clip by name and thumbnail
(that is a really nice feature; I wish more pornsites would include the
model name and a clear thumbnail of the model to show who she is and what she looks like)
-Videos are 10-30 minutes, a nice runtime
-Videos have 20-30+ screenshots to show model and action
-Large amount of hardcore videos with nice variety
-Updates 1 new video every 5 days
Cons:
-Check carefully for the pre-checked cross-sells when you sign up. I got stung the last time I signed up, even though I knew they were supposed to be there. I just didn't see it on signup, so I lost a few dollars down the drain.
-Video quality is acceptable but not great.
-It would be really nice if they could upgrade/increase the visual clarity of their updates. The updates are mainly older scenes from DVDs shot years ago. But if they could remaster the scenes to increase the clarity of the video, that would be a really nice feature.
-Screenshot photos do not have a zip file. But few people would want to save these photos anyway. The photos are low quality: they are useful to give you an idea of what the model looks like, and the video action, which is great. But the photos have little erotic value.
Bottom Line:
The video quality is acceptable, but a site like Nubiles or X-art or Mplstudios can give you crystal clear videos, and you don't get that here.
This is a DVD site, and even for the "high quality" streaming or downloaded files, it's like you are watching an older movie: the quality is OK, but not excellent: the colors are not vibrant, the clarity is not great. All the technical factors are good: professional lighting, professional focus, background music is better than most porn videos, the action is good, everything is good, but not the high quality video clarity you can get at some sites. But at the sites where you get the high video clarity, the quantity is small compared to the amount of content you get at this site.
This site is one of the main values of the netFameSolutions network.
The network currently has about 32 sites. About 5 of those sites are general hardcore sites that make up 90% of the value in the network. The
other sites are niche, that might have a limited number of videos for fans of that niche/fetish, but that most PU members will probably skip over.
With a single membership to almost any site in the network, you gain access to about 22 of the network sites.
The sites that I believe have the most value are:
This is a video network. It has a large amount of photos, but I consider the photos low to medium quality. The photos compare poorly to Metart, Mplstudios, Femjoy, or other photosite pictures.
The network (and this site) has a number of attractive models. There is some ethnic variation of models: You have not just the standard East
European models, which make up the bulk of the models, but also a significant number of Latina models. Also a small number of Asian models. A very small number of black models at the network. The Curry Creampie site features models that are supposed to be Indian-looking (from India).
At this site, the videos have a tiny plot setup, where the boy and girl meet, then almost immediately have sex. But the setup tries to give a little more meaning and flavor to the sex instead of just two or more people banging away on each other. The sex is pretty straightforward: for 1 boy 1 girl: start with a blowjob, guy eats girl, they fuck vaginally, maybe fuck anally, then cumshot to girl's face. The action is not rough or harsh or abusive. This is definitely a hardcore site, but not the harsh, gonzo action found at some sites. Not a lot of tenderness in most of the sex, or affection, but not the harshness or abuse found at many sites.
The monthly price of $9.95 (through PU/TBP link) makes this site a real bargain, based on the good quality of the content, the large amount of
content, the large variation in content, and the low price.
Giving the site a score of 87 because the site is good, plus you get access to a solid network of sites.
I was a member of the network about 4 months ago, and found a lot of very nice videos at some of the sites. There is a wide range of material, most of which I was not really interested in, but there are a good number of attractive models in a large number of videos that are nicely shot. One factor I appreciate is that the fake moaning and groaning in a lot of these videos is much less than the average porn clip. The network is certainly not perfect, but it's one of the better ones out there, as far as content and price.
Video clips at SilverstoneDVD and Devilsfilm download as WMV files.
There are 2 file sizes for each clip: small and big.
I downloaded the big file size.
Tech specs for the video clips (at both SilverstoneDVD and Devilsfilm):
(for the big file size WMV download):
bit rate 2115 kbps
dimensions 720x528
Sample femjoy specs:
bit rate 7259 kbps
dimensions 1280x720
The femjoy bit rate varies from clip to clip, but is much higher than what you get at the DVD sites.
(I would have added this to my first reply, but the message can't be edited past 10 minutes.)
Quality of clips:
I am not an expert like Toadsith, so I can't give the technical aspects of the DVD clips, or the expert's appraisal of the clips. I am giving an average viewer's response to video clips (who has some, but not extensive experience in viewing porn clips).
If you've been a member of justteensite, justteenmovie, or femjoy, you will have seen extremely clear, clean videos. I am talking about visually. They have the highest quality in terms of clarity and detail, almost like high-quality photos.
The video clips at SilverstoneDVD and DevilsFilm are not as high quality visually as the videos at Femjoy, justteensite, and justteenmovie. I remember reading one post at PU that explains that DVD clips are not visually as high quality as the video clips at some special sites because of economic reasons (it's cheaper to shoot lower quality clips because of the video camera cost and maybe other reasons).
The high def video is listed as 1280x720 at justteensite and justteenmovie.
The femjoy, justteensite and justteenmovie clips I saw were softcore, which is apart from the quality of the clip.But the clips were made for those sites, not as part of a DVD. SilverstoneDVD and Devilsfilm are hardcore clips, made for a DVD market. So that explains why the visual clarity is not as high.
I saw a large number of clips at SilverstoneDVD and Devilsfilm, and thought they were good or decent quality, not high quality, but good. I did not see any clips that were visually mediocre as in milky or blurred. These are professionally shot clips, no jerky camera shots, fairly good editing (editing could be improved, the entire clip could be improved, but what do you expect from a porno DVD?).
These are straight sex clips, with almost no story.
Production values are not great, but the colors are good: for the skin colors of the models, for the colors of the settings.
I did not examine all the clips. For me to look at a clip,
1. I look at the model in the clip: Is the attractive? If not, skip the clip.
2. If the model is attractive, I watch the streaming clip, to see if the sex is stupid, is the moaning and groaning too annoyingly fake, the background music too loud or jangly.
3. I download and save the clips I like. To see them again later.
All the clips I saw had good, not mediocre, viewing-quality.
There are at least some models at SilverstoneDVD and Devilsfilm that are really attractive. The clips would be improved if they had some story, some teasing, sex that was less mechanical, better acting by the model, less fake moaning and groaning by the female and male models (but the moaning and groaning is less than in many porn clips), better background music, softer background music, and the entire clip could be improved. But at least you get some clips of attractive girls that are watchable.
Visually, these are good-quality hardcore clips.

Pros:
-For those looking for variety from European teens, this network offers a number of Brazilian models at SilverstoneDVD, as well as Indian models at Curry Creampie, plus other ethnic types.
-Updates: 1 scene/clip every 5 days
-Watermark. Fairly small, bottom right corner (could be smaller, but somewhat unobtrusive)
-Choice of 2 file sizes for download, small and big
-Can download clip or watch it streaming
-Screen caps give good idea of video clip, but useless as picture to enjoy
-DRM: none
-Download limits: none
-Easy log-on. Usually no secret word to guess, when there is a secret word, it is easily visible
-No automatic timer cutoff from site, even when you are inactive
Cons:
-Search engine at silverstonedvd could be a lot better.
-Clips download as WMV files, no other download choices
-There is a page where they show a number of nice-sized thumbnails of some of the models. This is the "models" page in the preview. It would be great if they could show all the models at the site, and not just a few (20 models shown on that page). There is no "models page" inside in the members area to show you what the models look like.
-Stats: people like to know how many models are featured at the site, how many DVDs or DVD clips. I see no listing at the silverstoneDVD site.
From the TBP site: 121+ DVDs (approx. 100 min. each)
-Billing by famebill. No billing by CCBill or Epoch.(But I found the signup process to be quick and easy, with no problems.)
Bottom Line:
The netFameSolutions network offers Devilsfilm and SilverstoneDVD, along with 17 other sites,
for a low monthly membership fee ($14.95 thru PU). All the sites I saw have the same basic layout: nice quality DVDs, basic navigation.
You are not getting super high quality clips, but you are getting good quality clips, that are professionally shot: good focus, good lighting, good colors of the models and the sets. The clips are straight sex, no plot or story. Soundtrack ok, usually not as much fake moaning and groaning, background music ok: both moaning/groaning and background music could be improved, but still better than some of the terrible clips I have seen from other sources. Moaning/groaning is supposed to add to the excitement of the clip, but when it's so obviously fake, it doesn't add, it seems stupid. And the background music just gets in the way, so you wonder if it's better to watch the clip with with no sound, or to try to ignore the music.
There are a number of other sites in the network, offering niche products: granny; big-sized models; hairy models; lesbian; milf; etc.
My main complaint about the site (and the other sites in the network) is that a lot of clips don't identify the model(s) in the clips. So how can you search for other clips that particular model might be in if you don't know her name?
In porn, it's easier to find quality photos of beautiful young women, than it is to find quality videos of beautiful young women. There are just too many elements in a video that can detract from the pleasure of looking at a lovely woman.
Do the clips feature attractive girls, is the sex exciting, boring, disgusting, how much distraction is there from fake groans, noisy background music, lousy lighting, etc.
SilverstoneDVD has a number of very good-looking young models, with a number of nice-quality clips.
As a solo site, it would not be worth joining. But as part of a nice network, it's definitely worth a 1-month membership to see all this network has to offer.
I am giving this site a score of 87, based on the network, not as an individual site. I find it difficult/meaningless to grade the site as a solo site, when so much of the value comes from the network's other sites that are included in the membership price.
I'M SURPRISED AT THE LOW QUALITY OF THE VIDS.
THEY ARE PROFESSIONALLY SHOT, GOOD FOCUS, GOOD LIGHTING, GOOD SOUND CONTROL.
BUT THE DEFINITION IS LOW.
A RECENT VID POSTED 02/27/2015 FROM A DVD IS OFFERED IN:
160p
240p
360p
480p
THAT IS FOR BOTH STREAMING, AND FOR DOWNLOADING.
TEEN MEGA WORLD, WHICH USED TO BE LOW-GRADE HARDCORE, NOW OFFERS 4K DEFINITION FOR SOME OF THE VIDS.
AND MOST OF THEIR RECENT VIDS OFFER UP TO 1080p.
Current Member for over 1 month (at the time of review).
Pros:
I AM WRITING IN CAPS BECAUSE IT'S EASIER FOR ME TO READ AND WRITE. NOT TRYING TO BE RUDE OR SHOUT.
-SECURE LOGIN PAGE. A NICE FEATURE.
-YOU GET 2 CONFIRMING EMAIL ON JOINING THE SITE. THEY GIVE YOUR LOGIN DETAILS, MEMBERSHIP DETAILS (PRICE, LENGTH OF MEMBERSHIP, LAST 4 DIGITS OF CREDIT CARD USED). ALL THESE DETAILS ARE HANDY IF NEEDED.
-SUPPORT IS 24/7, AND IS RESPONSIVE. I'VE CONTACTED CHAT SUPPORT TWICE, AND BOTH TIMES THEY RESPONDED WITHIN A FEW MINUTES, WHICH IS AMAZING FOR A PORN SITE SUPPORT.
-NO DRM. NO DOWNLOAD LIMITS.
-ACCEPTS DOWNLOAD MANAGERS.
-SITE IS PART OF THE FAME DIGITAL NETWORK, WHICH IS A LARGE NETWORK OF HARDCORE SITES.
Cons:
-THEY DID A SITE/NETWORK UPDATE RECENTLY. MADE THE SITE/NETWORK LOOK BRIGHTER, MORE MODERN.
HOWEVER, IT'S NOW HARDER TO NAVIGATE THE DIFFERENT SITES.
THAT IS A MAJOR MISTAKE: MAKING THE SITE AND NETWORK HARDER TO USE.
I'M DEDUCTING 18 POINTS FROM THE SITE SCORE, BECAUSE IT'S HARD AS HECK FOR ME TO SWITCH FROM ONE SITE TO ANOTHER, TO ENTER A SITE.
THE OLD LAYOUT WAS:
1. FAMILIAR, EASIER TO USE.
2. HAD THE HOT LINKS EASILY VISIBLE.
3. THE HOT LINKS WERE FAST AND RESPONSIVE.
THE NEW LAYOUT:
1. SEEMS LIKE A FUCKING JUMBLED MESS.
2. HAVE TO SEARCH FOR THE HOT LINKS.
3. THE NEW HOT LINKS SEEM TO BE SLOW TO RESPOND.
I SUGGEST BRINGING BACK THE OLDER STRUCTURE, THAT WAS WORKABLE, EVEN IF IT WASN'T FLASHY OR BRIGHTLY-COLORED.
OR GIVE THE MEMBERSHIP A CHOICE OF THE USING THE OLD STRUCTURE OR THE NEWER STRUCTURE.
Bottom Line:
SILVIA SAINT IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST NAMES IN PORN.
SHE WAS PENTHOUSE PET OF YEAR IN 1996 IN THE CZECH EDITION.
1996 SEEMS LIKE ANCIENT HISTORY IN THE WORLD OF PORN MODELS, BUT THIS WOMAN STILL LOOKS ATTRACTIVE.
SHE'S NOT A TEEN ANY MORE, BUT FOR A WOMAN BORN 1976-02-12, HER PHYSICAL SHAPE IS JUST AMAZING.
ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING SHE'S BEEN IN OVER 300 PORN MOVIES, WHICH NORMALLY WEARS THESE MODELS OUT FAST.
BUT IF YOU WATCH HER VIDEOS, SHE'S ENERGETIC, ENTHUSIASTIC, AND FUN-LOVING, WITHOUT A LOT OF OVER-THE-TOP FALSE THEATRICS THAT MANY PORN STARS USE.
SHE COMES ACROSS AS A REAL PERSON, WHICH IS RARE IN PORN.
MOST OF THE MOVIES SILVIA PERFORMS IN ARE LESBIAN SEX MOVIES.
IN INTERVIEW ON HER SITE, SHE STATES THAT SHE IS STRAIGHT.
SO WHY CHOOSE LESBIAN PORN?
PROBABLY A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT REASONS, THAT SHE DOESN'T BOTHER TO STATE.
THE SITE FEATURES SILVIA FROM HER EARLY DAYS TO TODAY.
EXCEPT I HAVE A HARD TIME ORGANIZING THE VIDEOS INTO SECTIONS THAT MAKE SENSE TO ME.
SILVIA DOES NOT ACT IN MOST OF THE NEWER VIDEOS.
SILVIA SAINT IS A FAN FAVORITE. BUT I THINK THEY FUCKED UP THE SITE AND NETWORK WITH THE RECENT UPGRADE.
I'M GIVING THE SITE A SCORE OF 70. THAT'S IN SPITE OF NETWORK ACCESS, WHICH NORMALLY BRINGS A SITE'S SCORE INTO THE 80s. BUT FINDING THE CONTENT FROM THIS SITE, AND THE NETWORK SITES, IS DIFFICULT, INSTEAD OF THE SIMPLE, EASY WAY IT USED TO BE.
Current Member for over 1 month (at the time of review).
Pros:
-Site has a faq on how Silvia Saint got into the porn business, a little on her history.
It's straight-forward facts, not a lot of bullshit.
-Site also has a bio page, with short facts on her personal history and physical likes.
-Part of the netFameSolutions network. One of the main sites in the network, based on quantity of content, quality of content.
-Silvia Saint is a very attractive blonde, blue-eyed model, great shape,
-PU discount $14.95/month (recurring).
-This site tries to be more accurate, or factual, than the normal porn site. In videos, if
the model is interviewed, she gives her actual age, rather than trying to appear as a teenager. In the categories page, they list 5 scenes at Teen: 5 scenes out of 737 total scenes at the site.
-Models mainly appear natural. Not a lot of implants. The girls with big breasts appear to
be natural, not plastic.
Cons:
PROS (CONTINUED):
-In the interviews, the girls come across as real people, not putting on airs, not using a lot of fake moans and groans and fake excitement when they masturbate.
-Can watch scenes streaming or download.
-Videos have posting date.
-Female models are listed for each scene.
-Includes network access to the netFameSolutions network, which has massive, good quality DVDs covering many categories.
-DownThemAll download manager works at this site.
-Good download speeds. I regularly got about 2.06MB/sec, which is close to my maximum
download speed (My max download speed is about 2.16 MB/sec).
-No DRM.
-No download limits.
-Lots of attractive models.
-Easy login.
-Same username and password work for all the sites in the network you have access to. Or
you can use the dropdown box to switch among your bonus sites.
Bottom Line:
CONS:
-Pre-checked cross-sell at signup.
-Many blank thumbnails for the model listings.
-No low-cost longer term (3 month or more) membership option.
-No zip files for photo shoots.
-I don't like their software mechanism for viewing the photos online. The viewer seems slow and clunky to switch from one pic to the next.
-Have to use drop-down lists to select model, category, scene. A simple blank search box would be easier to use, more flexible to use (if they paid a site designer to implement a software search system).
BOTTOM LINE:
Silvia Saint is one of the major porn stars. She was Penthouse Pet of the Year in 1996 in the Czech edition. She has probably appeared in over 300 adult films. The site has a large collection of Silvia Saint videos and photosets, as well as featuring many other attractive porn models. The site gives access to Silvia Saint's personal blog, which is updated at least weekly. So if you are a fan of hers, you can read personal messages from her, and read what she is doing and thinking recently. I honestly don't know how many PU members would be interested in this blog. She writes in a simple, friendly style, calling
her fans "darling", blowing them hugs and kisses. So in a sense, if you read the blog, and
you're in the right frame of mind, that could save you a few visits to a hooker, if you
can accept the substitution. The blog also has lots of small pics of many of the models
Silvia is currently working with.

I think that the Silvia Saint site is a fine addition to the netFameSolutions network. The
site has a large amount of hardcore DVD content, but the vibe of the site is different from the Devils Film, Rocco Siffredi, or Peter North sites. The site features a nice mix of male-female and lesbian videos, with and without toys.
The interview videos, titled "casting" videos, seem to offer a glimpsle of the models as
real people, not overly glamorized or putting on a fake show, but giving a realistic interview with some nudity thrown in, maybe some masturbation as well.
I enjoyed the site. Silvia Saint is a very attractive model, she seems to enjoy sex, is very open, and the site, although hardcore, just seems like a friendly place to visit.
It's hard to rate this site. A lot of the appeal depends on how much you like Silvia Saint. If you are fan of hers, obviously, the site would get a much higher score. If you don't think she's attractive (people can have widely differing tastes), then your personal score would be lower.
I'm giving the site a score of 88. But if you factor in the access to the tons of hardcore DVD material you get at other sites in the Fame network, you could bump the score to the low 90s.

Pros:
-This is one of the few sites in the network that has photosets worth looking at.
-Quality of the photosets not up to hi-quality standards of sites like met-art or femjoy, but these are decent photosets that a fan of silvia saint would probably enjoy.
-Has solo photosets of Silvia Saint, also girl-girl photosets with Silvia Saint, a few sets where there is a guy in the set, but the guy is an afterthought, almost like a dildo
-Uses toys (dildo) in the girl-girl photosets (depending on personal taste, that might be a pro or a con)
-updates: a new video scene every 3 days
-silvia saint is very attractive: great face, great body
-video clips try to add a little story to the sex, but plot is minimal, this is a straight sex clip. The acting is amateur
-video quality is, for newer DVD clips, just ok. Some PU members want high-quality video clips, which you won't get here
-specs for newer DVDs:
-bitrate 2115 kbps
-dimensions 720x480
Cons:
PROS (continued):
-easy login. Username and password required. Don't usually require secret word. If a secret word is required, it is easily read, not heavily distorted like some sites that make a real guessing game what the secret word is supposed to be
-no inactivity timeout from site
-updates: every 1-4 days. Very irregular update schedule, but this is part of a nice network, and for a single site as part of a large network, this site is updated with a video scene or photoshoot once every 1-4 days, which is nice.
-clips download as choice of small or big size in one format, WMV
-Network access allows access to 19 sites (this is for network, of which this site is part of):
-1500 movies
-more than 500 full DVDs
-exclusive content
-unlimited download
-updated every day
-DRM: no
CONS:
-no zips for the photosets
Bottom Line:
CONS (continued):
-clips download as WMV files, no other format
-1 size for the photosets, don't have a choice of low, medium and high resolution photos
-watermark. yes. size of watermark: larger than necessary. Placed in bottom right corner
-date video clip made not posted. Many of the video clips were made years ago, but there
is no date posted for when the video clip was made
-older clips can be lower quality, somewhat blurry, out of focus (Sorry, Denner, I see why you are complaining about the video quality of some clips)
-viewing can be a problem even for some of the newly posted video clips, This is the first site of the network where I had a real problem watching some clips. The clip might be slightly out of focus, or worse, and I could feel real eye-strain, almost like my eyes wanted to get cross-eyed, or like I was slightly drunk. I'm not making a joke.
One clip like this is:

titled: "Private Penthouse Greatest Moments #01 Scene: #3"
Posted to site: 2009-06-23
BOTTOM LINE:
-The main attraction of this site is Silvia Saint, a porn star with a lovely face and lovely body. Not a great actress. Born on February 12, 1976, in Czechoslovakia. She was Penthouse Pet of the Year in 1996 (Czech edition).
-I don't know if she is making any new porn films. She announced her retirement from porn on March 19, 2001, but continued to make girl-girl scenes after 2001.
-For her fans, this is a solid site, with a lot of Silvia Saint material: DVDs and photosets. DVD clips are not high quality, but mainly watchable. Photos are not high quality, but OK to look at, with Silvia in solo and girl-girl sets. I wish the DVD quality was better visually. Wish the photos were higher quality. Wish the DVDs and photos were dated as to when they were actually made. Would really be nice if you could look at the DVDs and photos and sort them by date made
-Navigation is ok, could be improved. Should be easier to scan/glance thru the DVDs and photosets on offer here
-My understanding is that the updates of Silvia Saint video clips are from old DVD material, that there is no new Silvia Saint DVD material being made
-As part of a nice network, I regard this site as bonus material. Give the site 87 for value of the network, not the site itself. I liked Devilsfilm and SilverstoneDVD sites of this network much better
There are lot of different models. Some cute, a lot not so cute. The photographic style is very different from glamor styles used at Met-Art or MPL Studios. I like it a lot less than the glamor style. You have attractive to lovely girls, and the photos make them seem a lot less attractive. That's my opinion, anyway.
I just joined today. So I don't know a lot about the site.
I don't know anything about Netbilling, never used them. I have used CCBILL a lot.
But I think it's worth using Netbilling, if they offer a cheaper price.
Get a new email address, there are plenty of providers that will give you a free email address.
Also, maybe use a special credit card, that you've never used before. I know some people use like a temporary credit card to pay for their porn site subscriptions. I never did. But if you can do that for free, that would make you safe two ways:
Your new/temporary email address is a safety measure, against spam.
Your temporary credit card would limit your liability against fraudulent charges.
But if there are any fraudulent charges on any credit card you use, I would assume that you are covered on any credit card. That's the way it works in the United States.
You are UK, but I would assume you are protected against any fraudulent charges on a credit card as well. But you can check that out, if you don't already know. If there are fraud charges, it would take a telephone call and one or two letters to the credit card company to straighten that out.
This site used to use a lot of British models. I haven't come across them yet, but they are supposed to be here. Most of the newer models are from Eastern Europe, supposedly because the models will work for less money.
But you might find the site of especial interest because they are supposed to have a large backlog of British models.
