Pros:
As others have said, the amount of content in this site is pretty exceptional - 14,601 with new updates almost every day - 15 updates so far in May, pretty much all women that work for the European studios, including new babes like Lia Lin & Karolina Geiman. The videos look great and can be downloaded in 5 different sizes, including 4k and new videos have BTS video as well. For me, what really makes this site super fun is the ability to peruse all the material they make available for purchase from all these other studios. The trailers are very entertaining and there's endless amounts of material to peruse using different tags, etc. Warning, though - video quality on the oldest videos is not high. For instance, I find recent videos to have bitrate of 3335 kbps while 2002 videos here have a bitrate of 1064 kbps
Cons:
Their C/S is no fun to deal with, in my experience. You ask a question, you'll be asked 5 questions back before you get an answer to the question you were asking in the first place. Interestingly, the best place to get action on issues may be Pornworld's forum. Most sites eliminated forums when they started to have member complaints about the site. I just checked out a forum thread where a member was complaining about a large number of videos on the site that were not playing to the end or were encoded at a poor resolution. Instead of telling the member to shove off, the moderator thanked him for the list and got it to people to fix the issues. The member who submitted the original list of dozens of videos on May 8 found only 4 videos with issues on June 1. So use the forum if you have C/S issues with this site.
Bottom Line:
Fun is a factor that is not accentuated enough with porn sites. For me, the massive amount of PornWorld material and the un-freaking-believable amount of non-Pornworld material that is available to peruse and check out is really fun and their new material is better than what a whole lot of other sites are doing.
I had a 1-month membership. I found a discount elsewhere in line with the 1-month discount that TBP has now. I didn't find the site to be very complicated. The site makes very clear what material is included in your membership. If you want, you can select a "Viewing Studios" option that will ONLY display the scenes that you have as part of your membership. Then there is a lot of material available besides that from many different studios that you can watch no-charge-previews of, and if you want to purchase them, yeah, then you get into the whole ticketing thing. One thing I found cool was that if you found yourself particularly attracted to a particular model, and were looking at her material, the site would quote you a price for buying all of her non-PW material. I didn't take them up on that, but I thought it was cool to get the offer.
I joined the site after finding a really great discount. A big part of the fun is browsing. There are about 50 scenes added to the overall site - PornBoxx, I believe is the name they use - every day.
The vast amount of those scenes require ticket purchasing to access, while subscribers of Porn World get 1 new scene per day and they're not crap scenes, they're really good scenes with hot Euro babes, for the most part. One of the great features, for my tastes, is the use of tags for browsing and discovering new babes. If you click on Porn World, you'll see all of the scenes that you've got access to - 14,260. My registration confirmation gave me no info as to what I would be charged on my next billing date, so I found a form to ask their C/S - and that's where things get weird. I asked a straight forward question - "I joined through a discount site. I really enjoy your site - how much will I be charged on my next billing date?" No answer to my question, I get a question back - what was the site where you got a discount? I send a link to the site where I got my discount since it's still showing a nice discount for the site. I get a response "This isn't real - we don't have discounts." I checked my account - I got charged the discounted price when I joined. I still have no answer to my question so I asked the C/S person again how much I'll be charged on my next billing date, but I don't yet have a response and plan on cancelling well before I get charged again to avoid unpleasant surprises.
It's tempting to me considering the number of scenes the preview shows that it has for faves such as Erika Fontes, Sasha Rose, Foxi Di, Gerson, Tina Hot, etc. But I suppose given the complicated nature of the thing, from Exotic's description, I'm really not sure what I would actually have full access to and what scenes would then require tickets.
Yeah, it's true. This site is worth a one-month join. I did that and found it worthwhile, but didn't want to stick longer.
It would be hard to think of the tastes that could not be satisfied with a month's worth of quality material at this site. You just have to ignore the massive amount of skanks.
The issue to put to the bank is "prove that I ever signed up for these sites". If they can't prove that you ever signed up for any sites or services, then it's obviously fraud and the only ethical thing that the bank can do is to refund you - or tell the bank that you'll be reporting them to the Better Business Bureau and the Attorney General's office in your state for conspiring to defraud you.
Anybody looking for BDSM-style material would be very disappointed with the material on this site. It's pretty much the standard Brazzers-style vids with a thin veneer of extra roughness. If you want high-quality rough-sex vids, check out Evil Angel. They have a site that features all of their directors, including Belladonna & Rocco, EvilAngel.com, that has good-quality streaming and downloads, updates daily, lots of material, had a 1 month $9.95 special for a while, though I don't know if that is still in effect.
The biggest con I can think of for this site, which I got as part of that Porn Pros Network deal quite a while ago, is the update schedule. The update schedule for their entire original network of sites went to shit with the pandemic and they haven't come back all that well - they seem to be putting more energy to opening new sites than getting their existing sites back up to speed. This one has updated at a steady rate of 1 new scene every 2 weeks since mid-September, at least, which is mediocre, probably less than mediocre if someone were thinking of joining as an individual site.
And then once someone has joined the site, they have the right to stop updating?
That's your opinion - and you can have a good time congratulating non-updating sites all you want for their splendid job.
I consider sites that stop updating as screwing their members - always have, always will.
I know how much control the girls have because there are forums internal to the site where the people who do the technical work have said - without contradiction by the porn stars - that they post all of the material that they get to post.
Do the girls have the right to work for different producers? Hell, yeah. But if they're going to have a site and not update - or stop updating - then they are screwing over the members that have paid for a membership.
Apparently you disagree - have fun with all the non-updating sites around - there's lots of them for you to enjoy the hell out of.
I was just glancing at EvilAngel.com to see rates of updates of some of their best directors - like Jay Sin - Jay has 16 scenes posted to this site in 2010.
Jenna Haze - who has been leading the charge against porn piracy - has posted 0 vids to her site since Oct 28, 2010 - note to Jenna: Don't put yourself out in the forefront of the fight against piracy unless you're going to stop fucking over the people that have paid money for your site.
Tori Black also hasn't posted any vids on her site in 2010
If you like Lexi Belle, she's still posting material at a reasonable rate - 4 vids and several photo-sets in 2010.
But I'd recommend that anyone considering joining this network do what you can to see which sites are or are not active before spending any money on it.
one big problem with this network is the bait-and-switch aspect of the live shows since they have started going through Streamate, which is becoming an increasingly popular option, being used by other sites, such as ILoveLupe.com, WickedPictures.com...
Having seen live shows for no additional charges at those other sites, I know that the people who run these sites CAN set things up so that their site members can watch a live show at no charge at the same time that non-members can join the show through Streamate or one of their many mirror sites at a pay-per-minute deal.
Well, in this network, aside from the noteable exception of Jenna Haze, I haven't seen a performer on this network that enables this network's members to view the live shows at no charge - anybody that wants to view the shows has to do so at pay-per-minute charges.
If that were stated before you joined the network, I'd say it was greedy but honest. Since the live shows are promoted as free to members before you join the network, I have absolutely no respect for the bait-and-switch bitches, such as Tori Black, that have set things up so their site's members have no free access to their live shows. If they have no respect for me, I have no reason to have any respect for them.
The world's a funny place when you have to talk to a PC technician just to be able to log in to a porn site - I still haven't figured out how to make my IE start saving my log-in info on my sites again. It's not keeping me out, it's just a pain.
This is a new site, so the start-off line-up includes 10 vids, all of which appear to be exclusive to this site - 3 are solo, 4 are girl/girl (two with Veronique Vega - mmmm), 2 are girl/boy, 1 is girl/girl/boy - there are also 5 photo sets, 2 solo, 1 girl/girl, 2 girl/boy. Now if she starts doing web cam shows....
Damn - that's really bullshit - I joined for a year because the price was so low and I'm a big Jenna Haze fan and such a fan of Jules Jordan's stuff - I'll have to make sure that I cancel right at the end of the year (if it's a recurring deal)

Pros:
Great quality vids - bit rate shows as 3806kbps, dimensions 720 X 480 including for older vids
Nice group of sites in network:
Jenna Haze's site, which she is very engaged in - doing 2 cam shows a month, 1 solo, 1 w/ guests, 2 or more photo sets being put up per week, exclusive vids put up occasionally
Jules Jordan's site - the man makes the best boy/girl porn of anyone alive, in my opinion - his stuff has rough elements but it has the feel of consensual rough play instead of some guy/guys beating women down. His work posted here is astounding. His last update was of Mia Rose - looking lovely and being enjoyed & fucked by a guy who had her squealing incredibly.
Katsuni's site - she's also into it and it's just getting started but having a lot of unique stuff of this sexy woman
Premium Pass itself updates once a day, though the updates are fairly random as to quality
Pic sets are all downloadable in zips across network
Cons:
If you're a pic fan and like to look through the pics on the site, the site can be pretty glitchy & frustrating - all pics in a set rarely load well and some display as red "x"es - you have download the zips to view the entire photo sets
Updating of some sites is inconsistent - you can't count on Jules Jordan's sites to have new vids every so many days - the upside is that you can get multiple vid updates on his sites in a single week
There are some sites in the network - Sybian Solos, Housewives Adventures, Teens First Threesomes - that haven't updated since 2007
Bottom Line:
If you're a fan of Jules Jordan's work, , or of Jenna Haze, you're going to find a lot to love here. There are 360 plus scenes of Jules Jordan's work here - and the 3 most recent updates - involving Mia Rose, Brittany Sky & Amy Reid - have been some of the absolute hottest.
There are 70+ vids of Jenna at her site, some solo tease, some girl/girl, some boy/girl - most exclusive to her site.
The quality of that stuff and Jenna's cam shows are enough for me to be very happy about this site.
There are glitchy elements to this network - the photo set posted at Jenna's site today didn't download for me when I tried earlier - I'm sure that they'll get it fixed - Jenna has a forum to hear from her members about problems and she clearly cares about this site and promises to post all of the scenes that she is in that her new production company is producing.
The excitement factor is all when it comes to whether or not to feel happy about having spent money for porn - the elements I described above make membership here an exciting thing for yours truly, so there it is.
Wait'll you try to end your subscription! That's when the real fun starts! You get a confirmation on the site that your subscription has been cancelled with no e-mail confirmation - so you assume that your subscription has been cancelled and stop using the site at the end of the subscription. Then you get your credit card bill and see that they charged you again. So you try to contact Customer Service - and you try - and you try - and you try - and you try - and you try - and EVENTUALLY someone will deem to respond - right after you have been charged for ANOTHER month - and then they'll say - "Oh, yeah, we'll refund you" and will only refund you for the SECOND excess month that they charged you for.
They have good material, exotics, but my experience with having joined with a good deal was horrible - trying to cancel is a miserable experience and their Customer Service is horrendous.
Count yourself lucky, rome. I wish that I had been unable to join when I did - would have saved myself trouble and money. Private does a lot of great stuff and you can join Videosz or Videobox at good prices and get a lot of great Private stuff and other stuff as well - but I found Private.com to be a pain in the ass to deal with.
I would have expected more professional treatment from such a long-standing site, but you never know. I joined in October when they had a 2-month for $25 deal, which I thought made the site worth checking out. With DRM on their vids and crappy navigation on their pics, I had no interest in sticking around longer than that and cancelled using their site. The site confirmed my cancellation, though I did not receive an e-mail confirmation, which is pretty common - not getting an e-mail confirmation, that is. I was sure I was all set until I received my credit card statement this past weekend and saw that they had charged me an additional $30.54 US. I filled out the "Contact us" form on the site - no response. I sent an e-mail to an e-mail address that I had when a C/S person had responded promptly to an issue during my membership - no response.
Apparently, they're OK with you giving them money and resolving password issues while you're OK with giving them money, but they don't mind ripping people off and they don't respond to people that they have ripped off. I'm fucking pissed about it.
I've checked out this Freeones.com deal and it's kind of a mess. On the first "Join Now" page, it refers to a price of 9.95/month whether you are in a country that uses euros, US dollars or British pounds. Then when you go past that page to the Epoch.com page, the price changes to 9.95 euros for 1 month, recurring at $24.95 euros/month, which is a LOT more expensive than the deal first promised. I've e-mailed Private.com. It will be interesting to see if I get a response.
To download pictures - using newest public disgrace scene as an example - scroll down to where it says, "Download images". Left click on that and it will show you a list of the zip files of the images available to download. Across the spectrum of Kink sites, some sites, such as Sex and Submission, might have a number of zip files of images to download for any particular scene. In the case of this scene, there's just one. Then you right click and save it where you want it.
fyi - it took me a while to figure this out. For the longest time, I was trying to right click on "Download images" for various scenes, getting nothing and thinking, "huh, must be a broken link". Nope - just not very intuitive.
Porn sites all need to keep their finger in the wind, taking the political temperature, especially sites on the more extreme end of things. In that vein, Kink.com has stopped shooting for Public Disgrace and is basically retiring the site. Perhaps they'll make the existing material a bonus for another site, or perhaps they'll only make the individual scenes available for purchase one-at-a-time.
