I hope I did not come across as negative on my review of Erotic Beauty.
I think it's a fine site, and I've been a monthly member of the site for over 2 years now, since I was offered a very inexpensive membership price.
But I think that for most people, that a membership to MetArt is the better value, since most people will pay the same monthly or yearly fee to belong to MetArt or Erotic Beauty, and MetArt has far more content, as well as a few other advantages over Erotic Beauty.
I've been a member of MetArt more times than I have of Erotic Beauty. But as far as I can tell, there was no reason to start or continue Erotic Beauty except as a marketing decision to make more money from 2 sites instead of 1.
There is, as far as I can tell, nothing to set Erotic Beauty apart from MetArt. Nothing in themes, nothing in explicitness. Any of the Erotic Beauty sets could easily be posted in the MetArt site. And vice versa.
MetArt has far more content than Erotic Beauty. The same high level of photographic excellence. The same softcore teen subjects. The same setup of 3 levels of definition for each photoset. And many (probably most) of the models that appear in Erotic Beauty are also found in MetArt.
As far as I can tell, even though both sites use many of the same models, the photosets of the model that appear at one site do not appear at the other site. Each site, as far as I can tell, has exclusive content at that site.
Review has lots of nice details. If money is no object, then belonging to both met-art and metmodels would be nice. Because then you would get to see all the sets at both sites. But since money is limited for most of us, met-art is the better value. The quality and style (teen glamour) of both sites is basically the same. The main difference is that met-art has a huge amount of content compared to metmodels.
I believe the reason met-art removed some "Lolita" sets was for legal reasons.
The main photographer for met-art in its early days was Grigori Galitsin. He also provided pictures to Domai.
Later, Galitsin worked with Petter Hegre to set up an erotic website, and then Galitsin set up his own erotic websites.
Galtsin has had legal problems in recent years. In 2006 Galitsin was put in jail in Russia for his erotic photography.
His wife was also arrested and put in jail in 2006, released, then put in jail again. His wife was the model named Valentina at met-art and named Val at Domai.
Her photosets have all been pulled at met-art and Domai.
As far as I know, Galitsin is still in jail in Russia.
WELCOME TO THE CLUB.
I'VE BEEN A LIFETIME MEMBER OF METART FOR ABOUT 6 YEARS NOW.
WISH I HAD JOINED EARLIER, BECAUSE I WOULD HAVE SAVED ON MONTHLY AND YEARLY SUBS TO THE SITE.
LOL.
That's what we all want, a site "to do something for me". But as we get older, that changes. When I was an early teen, looking at a copy of the Sears catalog (the women's swimwear or lingerie sections) would do it for me. But now I can look at a catalog of Victoria's Secret, which is far more colorful and explicit than what I ever saw in the Sears catalog, and
Victoria's Secret is just a catalog, even though it has beautiful women in lovely lingerie.
I used to be exclusively softcore. Then I joined PU, and I've been getting into hardcore. I'm still mainly softcore, but I'm looking for new material and new sites that I hope I will find entertaining. Most of what I find doesn't really appeal to me. But I keep searching. Because there is a lot of good content out there, somewhere. :)
As far as your score for this site, that's an entirely personal opinion. I used to worry when I gave a site a score whether it was the "right" score. But then I finally realized that a site score is very subjective. Some people think a site's score is based on objective factors, and they even have a rigorous system to create a score based on specific factors. But I personally believe a score is both subjective and objective, as long as the basic factors of download speed, ease of navigation, basic quality of contents, basic amount of contents are at the site. And each person's standards of acceptable varies, as does the person's tastes and opinions.
Sorry you were disappointed, graymane. You did get a nice price at $29.95 for two major softcore sites. Unfortunately, Metart is famous for its non-erotic videos of lovely young models.
From what you write, it sounds like you should avoid softcore sites, and look for something harder. Most softcore sites, like Femjoy, MPL Studios, etc. would probably be too soft for you.
There are plenty of sites out there. The problem is finding the ones that appeal to your personal tastes, at a reasonable price.
There's also a ton of crap out there. Metart and Errotica Archives are quality sites, they just don't meet your tastes.
I don't follow the discounts that closely, but I agree that the $10 offers from the Metart network disappeared a while back. Which is disappointing.
Every once in a while, if you are subsribed to the Metart newsletter, which is free, you can find an interesting offer.
About a year ago, I saw an offer to join Erotic Beauty for $1/month. That includes a fixed fee of $1/month for as long as you have the subscription.
I tried to post a link to the offer at PU, but PU rules didn't allow the link.
I've never seen any other offers that good, but sometimes the Metart newsletter will offer a subscription to one of their sites for $8 or $10 for the first month.
I've been a member of Erotic Beauty for over a year now. It still costs me $1/month. But I lost the link for that offer.
Agree that the site seems expensive.
A 1-year subscription to this single site is $199.95.
A 1-year subscription to this site plus 9 other sites in the network is $239.95.
For the 1-month option:
Single site is $26.95.
10 sites is $29.95.
So if you are going to join this site, it seems you might as well pay a few dollars more and get the 10-site membership.
But that is a heck of a price to pay for a 1-year membership.
I made a similar type comment in my review of Femjoy, saying that I preferred the Met-art look over the Femjoy look in the photosets. And I got a couple of responses that preferred the Femjoy look as more natural. So taste is very much a matter of personal opinion.
Nobody agreed with me that the Met-art look is better than the Femjoy look. :)
So I can't dictate what other people prefer. I was just making a comment that this site is more of a "natural" style than a "glamor" style.
I definitely do prefer a more glamorized style. Not ultra glamor, but some glamor.
Thanks for the clarification, Khan. I remembered that price was no longer factored into the score for a site, from years ago.
But I did not know if that policy had been changed since then. Or how to check if there was a change. Except to mention that some PU staff member might comment on the issue.
And I don't have the expertise to find facts about PU policy like you do. My mind can only hold so much, and what's in there is slowly draining out like the dish water. :)
PU/TBP lists the price as $29.95/month (recurring), or $34.95 non-recurring.
My understanding is that price is not a factor when TBP gives a score. At one time price was a factor for TBP, but a decision was made years ago to drop price as a factor in scoring sites.
When I rate a site at PU, I try to include price as a factor. But that's my personal choice.
As far as I know, price is not a factor when TBP scores a site. But perhaps Khan or someone at the PU/TBP site could comment if that policy has changed.
Note: if you don't see the prices I listed, use a Google search for discounted membership to Evil Angel.
There are discounts available: it just depends on how you find them, and what prices are shown.
I would guess that on holiday specials, the discounted price might go as low as $63/year. But that would take some searching to find.
If you really enjoy the site and plan on staying longer, a 1-year membership for $89.45 would be a cheaper way to go.
Or you can wait for a holiday (all kinds of holidays throughout the year) and find a special discounted membership for a month or a year.
I used the PU link to the Evil Angel site today, hit the join page, and see:
$9.95 for 1 month, single payment, for streaming and downloading.
$67.50 for 3 months, single payment, for streaming and downloading.
$89.45 for 12 months, single payment, for streaming and downloading.
There might be holiday specials that would be even lower, but you have to search them out, and it's hit or miss if you find one.
But $89.45 for 1 year would save you money on your current plan, I'm thinking.
