> NTSF was the only formatting a PC user should ever use.
Ahem. I don't want to start a flame on this topic (there are lots of other much interesting topics to flame on :-) ), but NTFS has two big disadvantages:
1. while it is indeed more difficult to crash it, it is also much more difficult to retrieve something from it if it crashes.
2. NTFS slows to a crawl (IMHO much worse) on reaching magic number of "90% used" (and speed doesn't necessarily comes back when you're back to below-90%). I even think I know why, but this is beyond the scope of this poll :-).

We should be ready to start testing it in the beginning of the summer but the change should be fully implemented by the end of summer for sure.
I'll make sure to keep you posted guys!

Regarding the Carmella Bing scene, it's at Day With A Pornstar, a site that has recently been moved to Brazzer's Pass. Scenes are still listed at Mofos Network but all links are dead.

"So I need another option, "the cum shot is not self induced by the male."
I agree with that completely. It's especially annoying when there's whole minutes of the guy jerking off, with the girl just waiting on her knees with her hands in her lap...

Hi Monahan,
RaggingBuddhist gave a very nice review, but here are a couple things I would add based on your comment:
I wouldn't characterize FigureBaby as embryonic or adjunct in any way. It is what it is - a small and growing site of fine art nudes. There are maybe 100 sets with 50-80 photos each, so it's not ridiculously small. I get the feeling that the videos will never be a large feature of the site. If you read the mission statement, the goal is totally on high quality artistic photographs.
I would also add that the site isn't in a planning stage - it knows exactly what it wants to be. It's just small. It's basically the work of one photographer, who is probably also the editor, webmaster, and everything else. I think it will always be on the small side.
Here's my thought: a site can give you updates everyday, but then the quality of the updates suffers. MET gives us four sets of generic Eastern European models every day, but I'd rather have one set of a unique and interesting model. You can go for quantity, but FigureBaby offers models with character and personality. It's the classic 10 pizzas from Dominos versus 1 filet mignon from a fine steakhouse.
I know it sounds like I work for the site or something, but I'm just impressed with it because it has a genuine philosophy. You can certainly wait for it to grow, but due to the nature of the site, I don't think there will ever be an "explosion" of new content.
I hope this makes sense.

I enjoyed the contrast between the old and new review.
Offering new content is never a bad thing but Videobox made a marketing blunder with these new channels. They should have sold them as separate Web sites and maybe give a discount if you joined two or more.

I was checking out the price of those premium channels -- $18! Considering a regular membership, with its access to so many DVDs, starts at $10, I cannot believe that people would really want an extra channel for that much cash. Does Evil Angel = evil price?

Monahan, apart from the damn fine review, I think you give us some news here?
For this user anyway: That VideoBox now are up to 5 full videos a day. It look like they do NOT want VideosZ to have that privilege alone - well, that competition is to the benefit of one kind of people:
Porn-users.
Thanks for the update, too.

Sounds a wee bit weird. Have you tried it again since you had the problem? I went through some of the tour as well and received the $25 price as well. Might want to try clearing your cookies and such, this cleared things up with the VideoBox confusion recently.

Hey Monahan,
I didn't have that problem. I did the full tour, mainly because I was wanting to see if they had added the full zips yet (this was last week), and then clicked "Join Now" and received the discount. I actually had planned on posting a re-review of the site in the next few days that will be adding +4 to my original score.

This is true to a certain extent, but I have to say I don't even trust CCBill or Epoch that much either. There is too much that is underhand and has the appearance of being underhand and dishonest, in the internet porn industry. Having said that, I get the impression that CCBill and Epoch seem to be more trusted by members here than most. But if sites do all of those things I mentioned and more, and CCBill and Epoch are their billing agents, what does that say about CCBill or Epoch, and how trustworthy they are? I do agree to a certain extent though.

thanks monahan. unfortunately we do have some old videos split into parts but it's the older stuff. All the newer vids for the past couple of years are single scene clips available in multiple format downloads, as well as the member can cut their fav parts using the movie cutter, and streaming available for new content. If you see a clip missing just let me know, it's there, some older blowjob or cumshot scenes were reripped but the downloads should be there.
Yes we do have many of the videos of our competitors but we also have more european, german, italian content as well as lots of fetish, for the hardcore surfers.
And you're right, we don't have pic content. YET. I'm setting up the databases right now.
Monahan, I appreciate your feedback. If anyone has questions feel free to email us.

Hi there. I apologize for the problem. Just contact me via your email you used to register and email me at webmaster@pornstarxs.com and i'll give you full access for a couple of days. I apologize again but we'll fix it. We want long term happy members, we'll do what we can to win you back.
Oh and we're not like other programs that upsell on our trials and then charge you $100 for access to other sites.

Monahan said: "I suggested this poll because I was curious how others felt about this. If a search function is rated lousy in a review I usually move on without signing up, but if a good search function is operating on the preview site that I like and that has a good review, I'm likely to sign up."
That's a good point about the preview having the search function. It's a plus because it shows that the site is serious enough to allow visitors to examine the content and the quality of the engine -- UNLESS of course the engine turns out to be a clunker.
But it's a hellava big step in the right direction in either case compared to those sites that don't show visitors much at all and have this blinking-ass "Join Now!" thing going with all clicks linked directly to the signup page.
But I answered "for large sites" or whatever it was (not showing on this reply page). I'm with Wittyguy that smaller sites or ones that have good organization of content and show their updates in order with dates to the visitor don't really need to have a search engine.
BTW, I also think that EuropeanGlamourGirls has a nice enough search engine for its size, though the content is too often dull and repetitive.
BTW #2: What you said about accuracy is of course important! When they mispell names, etc., it's the old computer term GIGO -- garbage in, garbage out. Yeah, that just sucks.

Hey Monahan, Many of the videos appear to be exclusive (site brand, common locations, etc.) but there is non-exclusive content available in the site as well. I personally didn't have any problem finding plenty of content I haven't seen before.

Please feel free to ask about whatever you need more information about. As you may have noticed I rarely give high ratings to sites. I feel the content is especially good, except for the lack of variety in the models. The videos play at least as well on my tv as does my fiber optic cable. I also agree the tour is not much of a sample.

Yes, I was surprised mbaya did not mention price in his review -- $35 is not exactly cheap, despite how beautiful their content is. Even if they had better search functions, I would still give them a score in the 80s with their current price.

Thank you for your response. The style of the sites is quite different. Dev8 feels Eastern European, eurobabes approach. This feels like something else in its style, because it is Canadian. Culture has a feel to it that is intangible. It just comes across in a different way.

Good to know, so thanks a lot. I just looked and don't see this site listed. TBP does not say anything about DEV8, but says it is from Charisma.com. Are you sure?
