Sarah's Reply
Sarah, thanks for taking the time to reply. I think you'd agree that your site has a lot of fans here.
Based on your reply and on a reply to an email I received from Alex it looks like I made a mistake in my review regarding older sets. I'll edit the review to remove that reference.
And given that you stepped in to provide some information, and Alex emailed me back, that level of customer service makes this excellent site that much better.

Good luck with this - it looks like from Sarah the webmaster's post they'll be able to help you out. I really wasn't looking for the ALS Angels sign up offer so I can't say for sure, but I think it came after I had submitted my credit card information for ALS Scan.
And a big thumbs up to ALS for not making this a pre-checked cross sell.

I know it's a personal thing, but I've always liked the interaction between the model and the crew where it's appropriate. Obviously in a plot-based movie (do they still make those?) it wouldn't work, but it works really well at ALS Scan.
File sizes may be a problem for you, but the trade-off is unbelievable quality - for both pics and video. This really is impressive stuff.
I agree that there will always be a subjective element in a score, but as long as a reviewer explains the score then I'm okay with something very low or very high. And honestly, while there is a subjective element in my high score, there is a lot of objectivity too. This could be a site with obese, hairy senior women and I may not like it much, but I'd still have to give credit for the technical near-perfection.
And jusr in case anyone from ALS Scan reads this, please don't start using obese, hairy senior women as models. I was just using that as an example. :-)

Wow! This is the first I've heard of this. Thanks for the info. It's good to see that the government is tackling the serious social issues of the day.

Thanks for the comments, and thanks for the information on the difference between the two sites. I figured that it had to be something like that. The models at Angels are certainly 'curvier' but they are still amazingly beautiful. I hope that Alex is representing them as inferior to the models at Scan becasue they aren't.
When I joined a year ago during the signup process I was offered Angels for $9.95. Same thing happened this time. It's possible but not probably that I just got lucky both times and signed up when there was a special offer. I susepct that it's a standard offer now. And if it is, you get your wish of both sites for just under $40.

Thanks! Let's just say I spent a lot of time there over the past couple of weeks. It's a huge site.

Thanks messmer! As I said to elephant, while I can understand that some people would have no interest in the photo shoot videos, they work for me. I can't really say why, but they do. I downloaded more of those than masturbation scenes.
And thanks for supporting the high score. Based on the scoring criteria here, I think it is justified and I hope that anyone reading the review will see why I scored it so high. They may not agree, but as long as they see where I'm coming from.

Thanks tangub. I'm not a big fan of the fisting and peeing either. That's a bit strange for me to say that because in other contexts I do have a bit of an interest in those. I think that here it seems a little out of place in that the site is more about glamout than raw sex. But these things on ALS Scan don't get in the way of the scenes and they certainly don't detract from the site.

Thanks for the comments, elephant. I can't explain why, but I'm one of the people who really like the photo shoot videos. I can see why some people wouldn't like them because they aren't as overtly sexual as a video, and I can see that some people wouldn't like the director talking through it the whole time, but for some reason I really like all aspects of these scenes. I like the 'fly-on-the-wall" thing and being able to see the interaction between the model and the camera.
If you go back (and I'd highly recommend that you do) plan to stay a while. The HD video files are huge and look amazing.

This looks like an interesting site. It's probably too artistic for my tastes, but I did check it out and like what I saw. Many of the models are very attractive. Thanks for the review.

Thanks for that. I might check them out.
It bugs me that so many studio sites don't seem interested in the internet as a means of getting product to the customer. I've had memberships to many studios and I can't think of any of them that I'd say really understood the internet. There are many that don't get it, and I don't mean to pick on them, but Hustler is a good example of that disinterest. It's almost like these studios just don't understand the internet.
This site is probably not the best place to gauge how porn is accessed because we're all active buyers of web porn, but surely DVD sales are in decline as web sales increase. I can't be wrong in that. There's a neighbouring city where I go for work a lot and I used to buy and rent porn there too. One of the three adult video shops there closed down and recently another dropped DVDs and now only sells toys and clothes. That has to mean that DVD sales are in decline, so why are studios fighting it?
It's like how the music industry fought online music. They got focused on the belief that everyone wanted to steal music. They missed the fact that most of us just wanted to get the music over the internet and were more than willing to pay a fair price to do so. I suspect it's the same with porn. There will always be piracy, and that is bad, but there will always be people like the members here who are willing to pay for the effort that people put into a product.
Sorry to ramble...

I'm a fan of studio sites and I somehow missed this one, so thanks for reviewing it. It sounds like Wicked is like so many of the other studio sites though - they have the material and the resources but they still do a mediocre job of giving web access.
Are there any or many of their older titles available?

Thanks for replying with this information. I might be a bit demented myself bur Jay Sin's Milk Nymphos and Anal Buffet series' are among my all time favourites. The scenes you mention are amazing. Not for everyone though!

Great review! Thanks for posting it. I was a member about a year ago and like you I found it to be an excelelnt value. A recent review of the site stated that there were too many fetish videos, but I don't remmember that there were so many that I felt cheated. Also like you, I really wish they had more of their older titles available.
Are there many titles available from Jay Sin? I've become a huge fan of his work. He's obviously a sick, demented person who should be locked up, and I admire him for that!

I have 17 if them. One is for non-porn stuff. yes, I do actually have some non-porn stuff. 12 are for 'primary' porn storage. They range in size from 120GB to 1TB with probably 4 of them being 1TB. 4 of them are AC-powered large ones (2 and 3 TB that I use only for backup.
Coincidentally, I'm planning to reduce the number by one drive today by migrating the contents of my sole 120GB drive onto my 'active' 1TB drive.
I've been adding drives at a much quicker pace these days. My brother-in-law works for my ISP and he told me that even though there is a soft cap of 250GB per month it isn't being monitored or enforced so I've been downloading like a mad bastard. Thanks to current memberships to ALS Scan and Fame digital I'll probably fill a 1TB drive this month alone.

I agree with all of the above. I always read both the TBP review and any PU reviews and comments before subscribing to a site. I rely on TBP for a lot of technical details and any warnings that might be useful. But I also rely on their reviews. They tend to be more objective and that's a good thing since many PU reviews are more subjective. Add the two together and you can get an excellent idea of what a site is like.

If you don't do it now, I'd highly recommend going to the parent website of this one before joining any site. The Best Porn has a ton of good information so even if the site you wanted to join was hiding the fact that it was streaming only the staff at TBP would let you know that. Same with things like download limits and DRM. The reviews at PU usually don't go into the technical detail that they do at TBP. TBP and PU are the only source I use and trust on internet porn.
As for the gay site reviews, there are certainly several gay guys posting here now so maybe it will reach a critcal mass and really take off. Here's hoping. It will make this site more thorough.

I'd guess that your thoughts about why the gay site is more tame is correct. People tend to be a bit more homophobic about male homosexuality so the people at Kink need to be more discrete.
Thanks for the comments on my review. There seem to be several big fans of Kink on this site.

Thanks for this. I've search around 21Sextury and can't find any information that leads me to think that the three-month price structure is still there. I hope I just haven't missed it.

It surprises me that there are sites that offer streaming only. I might be wrong, but I'd guess that most people want to have something to show for the money they spend. But maybe with the rise in things like iPhones, iPads, iPods, Playbooks, etc there is a market for people who only want to stream.
And not to sound patronizing or anything because I'm not meaning it that way, but it's good to see gay porn getting some attention from members. PU seems to have a pretty diverse membership but the gay community was definitely keeping a low profile for a long time.

Thanks. I looked at both at TBP but I'm not sure if the sites they list have been updated since 21Setury made the change. There are several sites within 21Sextreme that I'd be interested in, but 21Setury defintely has more. With the TBP discount I'll probably take a membership to both eventually.

Thanks pat. I was hoping that this site would simplify their membership. I'll definitely check it out. 21Sextury seems to be a favourite around here.
