Interesting - I clicked on the DDF Prod link above, clicked on "Join Now" and it refers to the $34.95/month price, but there is no button to join with a credit card.
DDF has been sending me a lot of newsletters/promos, since I had taken advantage of the 10 Site Deal for a time when they first started it. I just checked out the price they are offering in that mailing. It's 1 year at $199.95 or $26.95/month recurring.
I got really cheap prices and was never able to enjoy this site for more than a month at a time.
One MAJOR "con" for me was that there is some site in this network that has a lot of "fucking fat dwarves" movies - so when I would click on "new scenes" to see what the updates were, there would some pic of some guy fucking a fat dwarf and that was anti-erotic enough to make me lose interest in the whole fucking network until that was off the screen.
Frankly the only site in this network that had consistent interest for me was Rocco's site.

Pros:
This site has the archive of Sexy Teen Sandy, including pics, vids and webcam shows
Some of the newer models are hot
Cons:
The main page is completely dishonest:
There are NO live shows
While I'm not looking for Ipod vids, I also consider it completely dishonest when a site advertises them on the home page and doesn't have them anywhere that I can see
The site goes for periods of time with no updates at all
There is no support - e-mails with questions about updates, etc, may as well be sent to your aunt Martha - the one who doesn't own a computer - for all the response you're going to get
Bottom Line:
If you're in love with Sandy and want to see her earlier stuff, this is the place to see it all and at least they haven't eliminated any.
Whenever a star model leaves a company like this, it's a challenge to replace her with other models that will draw people in - all the more reason, I think, to be honest about what you're promising people.
This site started out well after Sandy left, adding frequent updates, as promised of various models, then it started getting all freaky - sometimes whole sections of pics of new models wouldn't even be available.
This is not a dependable site. It's being dishonestly promoted and handled in a clumsy and stupid way.
I can't recommend it to anyone that doesn't crave frustration at this point, though they have the foundation to build something decent if they care to.
Thanks for letting us know - he was a talented photographer, for sure, and he was known for trying to discourage soft-core models from getting into the hard-core biz, even if it would make his pics of them more valuable. RIP.
I haven't been a member here for a while myself, don't plan on returning. They still have all the irritating & nonsensical categories, from everything that I see mentioning the site.
Their set-up/navigation/category division is a major pain in the ass.
Price - the official price is $29.95/month, or 3 month recurring membership for $59.80/three months. But when you check out the "Join Now" page, the price that pops up is a Special Offer of $22.90/month. This is one of those sites, like Suze.net, that has very frequent special offers, so if anybody is interested in the site, they should check back often and then just join when they like the price being offered.
They're updating with 1 new scene per week - I show 21 new scenes since the beginning of 2021. But they have deleted a lot of the material that used to be on the site. I've done a lot of breakdown of that in previous comments and a review.
update on the deletion/replacement of scenes. I went to check out Jenna Haze scenes on Digital Playground today. The site shows 4 scenes for Jenna, when I know she had done much more than that for DP. Nurses is gone. Fly Girls is gone. All of the Control DVD's are gone. Almost all of the Jack's series - Jack's POV, Jack's Teen America, Jack's Playground - are gone. Basically if you want most of DP's material these days, your choices are to buy the DVD's or look for the scenes on some unofficial site, since their official site no longer has them. They have filled in the site with some additional material - some of it, older Brazzers material. I reported 1300+ scenes at the end of January. They currently have 1882 scenes, though they continue to update at the rate of 1 scene per week.
MUCH more than 1/2 the site was deleted in the past TWO MONTHs. I did a review of this site on Nov 2, 2020 and I reported 4,278 scenes on the site. The site currently shows 1,340 scenes. So they have deleted almost 3,000 scenes from the site. I've got this site as an add-on so I've got no reason to go anywhere. But I wouldn't recommend joining this site to anyone sane. This is the same bull-shit that I reported them having done with Twisty's and with Babes.com.
I'll review what I want to review as a member who knows what's inside the site. It's totally up to you to use your own judgement as to what sites you want to join. The whole idea of this site is to help people know what's actually in the sites from people that are/have experienced them.

Pros:
Deep archives with great scenes of many of the best pornstars of the past 20 years - Lanny Barby, Devon, Teagan Presley, Skin Diamond, Jenna Haze, Nautica Thorn among them.
Lots of variety of performers. I was going to write a review complaining about another site that was boring me to tears with the samey-ness of their performers - one slender white girl after another. But I thought it would be more fun to say good things about a site that has a lot of variety in their performers, including lots of fine Black women - Demi Sutra, Ana Foxxx, Scarlit Scandal, Kira Noir among them. Digital Playground has been known mainly for their blockbusters & story-oriented releases. I couldn't care less about the stories in most porn - but I'm a big fan of the Jack's Teen America series & the Control & Throb movies from the past & the Flixxx & Episodes' series that they have done more recently
Cons:
COVID-19 is having a major impact on their releases of new material. They went from releasing a new scene every 3 days in April to releasing a new scene every 2 weeks starting at the end of April - now they're re-releasing scenes once a week.
As someone who joined the site some time ago with one of those "join for life for very little money" deals so long as I have a Brazzers membership, I am grandfathered in to download vids, but I understand that new members do not share in that good fortune, so be careful if joining to know exactly what the terms are so far as downloads are concerned.
The situation with photos on this site is terrible. You click on a scene and there are no options to see the photos related to the scene. The only way to see photos on this site is to pick "galleries" as an option from the "extras" drop down menu. Even if you click on a performer's name from a gallery of hers, there are no options to see all of her photo galleries.
No 4K videos
Bottom Line:
This site's been around a long time. DP has probably been most heavily promoted around the Island Fever series they did, which I found very pretty, but incredibly frustrating with the music eradicating the sex sounds - blasphemy in my book - and their comical features, which really aren't funny at all to me, and their feature girls, some of whom, like BiBi Jones, did the worst work of their porn careers for DP. So it's easy to think, "nothing going on here" - but, as I say, dig in the archives and you can find some incredibly hot material and, at least up to the point that the pandemic hit, they were going forward with both guns blazing. They haven't been as creative as sites such as Adult Time & Evil Angel in taking on the challenge of this period. They've kind of thrown up their hands in a "What you gonna do?" sort of way. If you haven't been a member in a long time, I bet you would find a lot of material to enjoy here. DP has always had high production values and all of their scenes look really great. They offer their videos in 4 sizes from 320 p to 1080 p. Their download speeds, to me, are great. The file sizes won't kill your storage - an average 1080 p scene is less than 2 gb. They currently show 4,278 scenes on the site. I have never found a scene offered on the site that didn't download and play well, even from deep in their archives, so it's a site that's kept up well.

Pros:
High quality content, all exclusive
New series being uploaded to site in addition to their DVD's
DVD's that have previously been held back, such as the Island Fever series, are now being uploaded
Frequent updates
Great depth of archives
Top porn performers
Cons:
Streaming Only
Confusing multiple membership options, including "DP Premium", which claims to have unlimited downloads of Digital Playground, Elegant Angel, Evil Angel, Vivid, Wicked, Private and other studios - but it seems like you have to join to see what they're really offering.
Bottom Line:
There is one - and only one - reason why I'm bothering to review this site and that is that this site is getting better in a major way. It is VERY unusual to see a site that has been around as long as Digital Playground get better, so when I see a site like this get much better, I've got to bring it to the attention of other PU's. This site has always been the place where Digital Playground put up their DVD's that they wanted to offer for streaming. It's always been streaming-only. At times they have also had cam shows by their contract stars. They aren't doing those at present. What's new with the site is their web series and scenes that they are putting up on the site in addition to their DVD's. And these aren't crap no-budget scenes with bottom-feeder performers. They've been putting up scenes with the best up-and-comers such as Alina Li and Sara Luvv - great scenes too! And they have a new series starting tomorrow - a porn version of Sons of Anarchy starring the glorious Bonnie Rotten that looks very exciting from the previews. In a time when other sites are giving less and less to their members, it's pretty striking that this site is going in the other direction entirely. I hope that it lasts! My 89 score is because of the "Streaming Only" of this site. No site that doesn't offer downloads of their vids should be graded as excellent, in my opinion.
The final straw for me was when my fave scenes started disappearing from the site. In addition to all of the other limitations, they rotate scenes out after some unspecified period of time without warning - bleeccch!
I think with this site, and others in this network, potential members need to think about how long they might want to join for. If you remain a member, you get access to more and more sites in the network - most of which are high quality 21st Sextury material. That all makes the price quite reasonable.
If you're only planning on joining for one month, though, the price is going to seem quite a bit higher.
With all the controversy over when reviews can be made for free access to a site, the more important point here, in my opinion, is that they stepped up to do something to try to make you happy, in fact they gave you two choices, which definitely qualifies as good Customer Service and I agree that's worthy of a comment here.

Pros:
Gorgeous women involved in lots of kinky action.
Excellent work, technically.
High quality pics, high quality vids
Consistent updates - once a week for a new set
IF you can plan on remaining a member, you will have access to 2 additional excellent sites with the same high standards and update schedule PER MONTH, at the point that you are entering your 4th month of membership, you are getting access to a new set of pics and vids every single day from one of the sites
Cons:
This is mainly material recycled from the premium 21st Sextury sites, such as Pix & Video, so if you have a current membership to that site or were recently a member of that site, be aware that you may not be getting brand new material.
If you are not willing or able to maintain ongoing membership for months at a time, you will not have access to all of the material from the other sites.
Bottom Line:
Keep the "Cons" warning in mind, but if you have not had a membership to a 21st Sextury premium site before and you like hot European models beautifully photographed and video'd doing all kinds of kinky stuff - DP'd in this site with other kinks becoming available through the bonus sites - this site is wonderful, as are the related sites, which you can see listed on the home page.
Personally I love the 21st Sextury style - the lurid colors, the sexy outfits, the roaming camera - so I thoroughly enjoy this site.
And some sites in the network, such as Lez Cuties, will appeal to fans of more "natural" porn sites, such as Sapphic Erotica.
So if you feel that you can commit for a lengthy membership, be prepared for a great smorgasbord of fun.
To my mind, it is the network that makes these secondary sites worth joining. Everything that you are saying is true about their false advertising - but when you factor in the network sites that are included, some of which are pretty dang good, then it's not such a ripoff at all.
I joined Mandy Is Kinky a couple of months ago and have quite enjoyed the network sites, although more of them are ceasing to update. Still, I just did a count and after 2 months of membership, I currently have access to 27 sites that are updating and 10 or so that are not. That's a lot of material and the vids on the better sites are not bad at all and the pics are even better.
Anyway, just another 2 cents thrown in, for what it's worth.
Details? What is so bad about it, aside from the suggestion that you don't care for their definition of DP? Ugly performers? Poorly shot vids? Site doesn't work?
