All of my site memberships expire this week and I'm not joining any new sites. I have tons of material I can surf and I really look forward to exploring my collection. First time I've been naked in the porn world without a membership. I guess I'm going to save money for sure. I was planning a 90 day run. My question is how long have you went without a membership, just exploring the material aka your collection? Will | |

Hummmm...since I started I have always had a few going. Brazzers and Videobox have been keeps for me.

I've probably gone 3 to 4 months without a membership but that was a few years back. Now a days, I'll probably go no longer than a couple of weeks without signing up somewhere. Most of the down time is spent editing and perusing the collection I have or just spent surfing tgp sites. | |

I have three reviews left to do next week or so, but my last membership was near 3 months ago. Why? Several reasons, 1. many sites are making that jump from the teens in pricing to the 20+ plus, doesnt sound like much. But I look at what 30.00 gets me. I can fill my Honda Accord up for a month. I know prices are not bad but the damn fucking internet is on its way to setting limits, why some are actually lowering cost, the content on some will suffer along with it. So I am in limbo 2. Like WilliamJ I have huge amounts of stuff, especially pics some I have never seen and videos as well thousands I do not even know works. 3. The honest part of this too is to not become addicted to getting every site that gets the motor running. I have modles like we all do to name a few, Eve Lawrence, Mindy Main , Austin Kincaid whom we see on many sites and the the hook I have to avoid is spending 30.00 ti get a few new Eve's or Mindy's etc. 4. Porn burn out, thats one I watch carefully too do not want to become desensiticed to what is in real life and what I see in videos. There was a time, DP and others would have been over the top for me, and now I notice it doesnt matter. So watching that high doesnt make me not appreciate the beauty and sexyness. That why the brutal and mistreating even simulated I avoid. As women are awsome to have anywhere, not to be meat. And this users doesnt want them to be viewed as meat. 5. I have spent allot, allot , I mean ALLOT, nothing close to Bad Andy, but thousands and thousands just over the last few years. Since hmm 2005 Id say close to $6000.00 probably counting hardware and software to make the experiance better. I will still sign up , but not going to make it a routine to much. I am getting into Photography and video production I did TV productions years ago and thought hey maybe I should do this. Its something I am very good at and who knows maybe even get hired shooting the girls lol. Hey Guys imagine a photographer that actually wants it to be about teh girls LOL. Ok thats my soap box, I am not leaving just taking it easy a tad. Thanks Cybertoad. Since 2007 | |

I let all of my sites expire as well and will not subscribe to any new ones until my currency starts to climb back up to where it was five months ago, equivalent or close to the value of the US Dollar. Everything got 15-20 percent more expensive for me when I make a purchase in the US, and most porn sites are located there. European sites have always been way more expensive than I was prepared to pay, so that leaves out that option. Just like so many others I have tons of material from previous subscriptions I haven't even looked at so I won't have to do without my daily fix. I won't be doing any reviews for a while, though, which is something I love doing! :-( | |

I'm with you guys. I had one sunbcription now I have none. I may subscribe to one site in the next week or so, but I don't want to encourage any site that has regional discrimination, or has substantially increasd its prices. As I suspected, quite a few of you have a lot of material you haven't even looked at. I know that in the past, I sometimes downloaded some good stuff, then looked elsewhere once it was downloaded, to see if there was anything else of interest, without even viewing some of the material I had downloaded. Typical male sort of thing. Once you have it, you lose interest. So I am really tough with myself nowadays and make myself view what I have and then delete most of it before subscribing to another site. I agree what you are saying about overkill and over exposure too. I find a break does refresh the appetite. | |

Thanks for all the responses. I was surfing around my collection and I was amazed at all the material both in video and pics I actually have. My goal is 90 days and in a weird way I'm really excited about my newfound adventure. I think I have a great collection and I always wondered when I was going to have the time exploring it thoroughly. Now I will. Will | |

A very perceptive post, squirrel! I shall go to my "treasure" (at least 600 Gigs of porn) and will start looking at what I have, starting with the oldest and working my way up to the present. | |

A great topic! I have so much stuff I could go for about a year without a membership, but, of course, I won't. Problem is I enjoy the hunt as much as the trophies on the wall and the excitement of finding someone just a bit more beautiful doing something just a bit more entertaining or outrageous spurs me on to look for new outlets and new memberships. I do try to ration myself to only one or two a month, however, showing a tad of self-control (usually). Jay G | |

Uh oh. I hope it does not take 30 years to go through 600 GB of porn. Otherwise I am in for a couple life sentences here!

Make that 15 years, squirrel. I counted again and came up with around 300 Gigs, I forgot that I had partitioned one of my external hard drives and was only using 175 Gigs for porn, add another 125 Gigs on my main hard drive .. so, 15 years it is .. not really, because you can't keep me away from this place! :-) | |

Funny this should be mentioned. I've cooled down, if not off, to just a couple of $10 per month memberships for the next few months. I go into my own collection and make "discoveries" of things I hadn't seen in a while. Besides, I'm so "Morris the Cat" about it now that I've been rejecting too much material online. It takes at least six months to build a good "candy store" (or fish market, in the Morris case), and only a few sites are any good for that. I wanted something new, so I left England for New England. | |

I wonder how long those really big collections work out at given the length of a gb. It depends on the quality of the clip but just one gb can be 2 or 3 hours. High def it's a lot shorter, so that does make a difference. I think if you work out all the time it would take to view your collections, it could run into literally years. Of course this depends on whether you do time consuming things like eating, or sleeping. I have been brutal in deleting material in recent years. Thing is, once you have watched it, I think the natural thing is to keep looking for other new stuff to view. I am not sure how much repeat stuff I have seen. Not a lot, no matter how good it is. I still have that collector's mentality where I just hate to get rid of things, but more often than not a virus decides things for me, when it comes along and wipes everything out anyway. Very rarely do I re subscribe to download material I have already seen. I just keep the porn on computer only, so once it's gone, generally, it's gone. | |

Most of the stuff on my built-in hard drive is HD clips from ITC so it wouldn't take THAT long to go through them all. My external hard drive is a different matter because it contains mainly picture sets and there I will have plenty to do, either by looking and deleting or deciding to keep, or by pruning some of the overly long sets. It will be fun. | |

Hey anyone notice Cybertoad had disabled his account? If you're out there Toad, just cos you're not subscribing to tons of sites doesn't mean you can't have fun on the forum. You'll be a great loss. Stick around and make some posts or quick comments. I thought you said you were gonna stick around. | |

I did that when I took time out from porn collecting. He wrote: "Porn burn out, thats one I watch carefully too do not want to become desensiticed to what is in real life and what I see in videos." That's what happened to me. Always does, and I take a half year off or so, do other things. He'll probably be back. Edited on Jan 10, 2009, 01:56am | |

Yeah, Toad. We're'd you go? (He said he wasn't leaving.) Well, best of luck and hope to see you back! I wanted something new, so I left England for New England. | |

Longest I have ever went without subbing to anything is 1 year, I went at least a year without joining a porn site and the site that made me join it was Video Box, before that I was apart of Deluxe Pass. Now I can't seem to get enough of porn site subs, fucking crazy I tell ya. | |
