I joined Wow Girls on 2016-12-30, and was not given a choice of streaming only, versus streaming + download.
So I assume the option of streaming only started in either January or February 2017.
I joined through a special discounted offer (not through the PU link), for a 1-year term, which is why my membership would not automatically upgrade to diamond status, with access to all three sites, after 2 months. I would have to wait 12 months before I would be upgraded to diamond status.
(Normally, your membership is upgraded to diamond status after 2 months of continuous membership.)
So I paid $20 for the upgrade to diamond status.
So I guess that $20 is the current price to upgrade to diamond status.
Like I wrote earlier, the previous price to upgrade to diamond status was $70. Which caused a lot of complaints by PU members in their reviews of the Diesel network.
I assume very few people at PU took Diesel up on their $70 upgrade.
Diesel lacks a page inside or outside the site, spelling out the terms of service, which would list the cost of the upgrade to diamond status, that I can find.

Diesel network (Wow Girls, Wow Porn, and All Fine Girls) now offers members a choice of streaming only or streaming with downloads.
30 days stream only $19.95/recurring
30 days stream/download $29.95/recurring
180 days stream/download $99.95/recurring
Those prices are for a membership to All Fine Girls or a different membership to Wow Girls plus Wow Porn.
But they tell you on the join page what your choices and prices are on the join page.
But a membership to all 3 sites costs extra. I got my upgrade for about $20 (a one-time fee).
But I don't know if that was a limited time offer or the current price for the upgrade.
The upgrade price used to be about $70 (a one-time fee).
Except that after a continuous 2-month membership, you are normally upgraded to the 3 site access.
Except that I got a discounted membership, and I would only upgrade after 12 months.
So I paid the $20 for the upgrade.
Which I only learned after joining, and writing their support. Because they don't bother to spell out every little detail about the sites/membership rules (that I can find, anyway).

Hi Skippy, yeah seen other sites going pay more for downloads, seems like they are thinking the people that pay for porn are the people we'll punish and can pay us more, it should be law though to explain this on sign-up not hard to see either, this will not stop piracy in anyway.

I joined VIP area a few years ago for the same reasons--high glam photos/vids. I noticed that though the quality of the sets was high, there were sets that were not exclusive and some of stars from years earlier. I was pretty satisfied with the site, but never got back to rejoin it. There were always other sites that I was more eager to join.

I have to say that I am really surprised at the longevity of DVDs. Here at PU and on some other forums it seems that DVDs are still the 'go to' format for a lot of people. I don't get that. If my porn collection was on DVDs it would take up a warehouse. That's only a mild exaggeration. As it is, it's on 24 external drives and they fit in a briefcase.

I assume by editing you mean you wish to cut out portions of the video leaving the original encoding intact.
What you want to do after installing aviDemux is:
1) Drag your video onto the program to load it.
2) Ensure video/audio dropdowns on the left are set to "Copy"
3) Ensure Output Format dropdown is set to MP4v2 Muxer
Now you want to position your cuts on I-Frames. The frame type of the current frame is displayed at the bottom. The up/down keys also automatically jump to I-frames. Just click the red A button to mark the start of the cut. Move to the end point of the cut and click the B button. You should now see the area marked. Press Ctl+X to cut out that section of video. Repeat this process until you are done making cuts.
Then just click save.

I think you mean you reverted to 264. 265 is HEVC and very much like VP9.
I dismissed Whirligig early on because it takes a bit of time to learn to set it up correctly. I found DEO VR the simplest to get working right away. That said, Whirligig is the most advanced and best player I've come across. It's worth the learning curve for many scenarios.
What you should use to edit your videos is aviDemux http://avidemux.sourceforge.net/
It's very simple and fast.

Thanks for the comments and advice. i probably won't be taking the plunge in the next 12 months but I am confident that VR will have eventually be mainstream in porn and because of that I'll take the plunge sometime.
I hear you on the issue of porn driving so much technology. Hmmm... what on earth could the 4-head VCR be good for...?

Thanks for posting this review. For a long time I always tried to be on the cutting edge of technology and a lot of that was driven by porn. I had the first VCR of all of my friends (back when they were top-loading and weighed 50 lbs.), I was a early adopter into DVDs. I skipped Blueray simply because online porn and external storage was becoming better and cheaper. But... I can't bring myself to take the plunge on VR yet and it isn't that I don't think it would be any good, but my worry is that it isn't plug-and-play and I'd never be able to figure out how to use it.
Someday though...

Thanks for the review. I think you may be confused about the VP9 format though. There's nothing proprietary about it. It's an open royalty free format developed by Google. Not sure what settings they used, but VP9 is similar to x.265 in that it should produce better results even at smaller file sizes, not worse.
If for some reason you have trouble playing VP9 in your normal player I'd suggest ensuring you have the LAV filters installed https://github.com/Nevcairiel/LAVFilters/releases The LAV video configuration will allow you to use hardware acceleration for playback if your card supports it. I'd also recommend having your player play via Direct Show.

$9.95? that appealed to my lickpenny personality.
Having downloaded what I wanted, we had to cancel via VXNBill. (Previously know as rocketgate).
Had to provide my zip code, full name, email and the first six and last four of the credit card. Was suspicious, as this is two-thirds of the card's numbers..but I wanted to cancel. Oh, and after coughing up this data we had to wait 14 minutes for live chat to confirm my cancellation.
Three minutes later there's a call from Visa to confirm that I'm buying jewellery in Tokyo.
We're in upstate New York.
Hence, beware vixen.com

That is weird, as is their fondness of displaying prices in terms of cents per day instead of the monthly/yearly total cost. Still, this is a site I'm interested in trying out at some point. Some of the 3840p trailers I saw recently from here looked to match or honestly maybe surpass CzechVR in terms of visual clarity. I was quite impressed.

I believe the term you are looking for here in relation to the vr topic is "participation". With participation your actually participating in the scene, with a nonparticipating scene you are usually just in the room watching the action. I know the comments are two years old now but thought I'd comment anyway.

Thanks for the review. Occasionally when someone simply says POV or non-POV I have to think a bit about exactly what they mean. Non-POV makes little sense to me because there is always a POV, it just may not be the male actor's POV.
I wonder if it would be helpful to use the terms used to describe cameras in video games: 1st person vs 3rd person POV. Or maybe that is not familiar terminology either to people who don't play games.

Great. I'd be interested to know what you think. I understand they do 360 videos instead of 180. Not sure it's a great idea to spread the resolution out across such a large FOV, but I've not seen too many 360 videos to say.

Oh, it's still being run by some of the photographers that he trained, but none of them have his reputation or his chops.

I was a big fan of Digital Desire back in the day but it's really gone downhill of late, with very few new models. They've been showcasing models that haven't worked with the site for years. I'm sorry to say, but Stephen Hicks died in 2013 and I believe it was his solid reputation and professional attitude that drew in so many beautiful models. I actually had a sporadic correspondence with Hicks and really appreciated his dedication to his craft -- and his taste in women. He died way too young.
Thanks very much for your prompt and helpful responses.

Finally someone who can answer my only question about this website. On the limited previews I've seen, all the photos are in portrait mode. Since I'm primarily interested in photos for wallpaper, I want as many landscape (horizontal) photos as possible. If there are none, or very few, I wouldn't want to join the site. (And I'm guessing this would also apply to Amour Angels, which seems to be an identical site.)

Great review! I thought mine were fairly in-depth but I am shamed :D Looks like you found the site similar to me - although not my favourite site, I did find it more appealing/erotic than eg Met Art. BTW note that if you want to download the highest resolution pics, it is trivial to do so with a DM, eg DownThemAll.

Excellent review skippy! I checked out the free tour, and noticed that one of my favorite girls has a ton of photo sets. Did you say that the videos are just a few minutes long?
