Porn price inflation I'm stunned that during this recession, some of my favorite sites seem to have notched up their monthly dues. The Art of Blowjob now clocks in at $31.99. Now, I love glamour blowjobs and cum eating as much as the next guy, but $31.99? What's this, a site for the 1%? Then Wow Girls went up from $20 to $30 a month. X-Art is (somewhat) more reasonable at $24.99. I'm just a little surprised that these sites are getting many new members at those rates. Of course, once you're in you can often renegotiate by threatening to leave, but it still seems a strange business model to jack up the rates on future Jacks. There are, to be sure, some gangbuster good deals out there, and people should share those sites that have the best price-value. I recently joined 21st Naturals Sextury for 19.99, and you get a decent amount of extra content (along with the Naturals stuff) to make it worthwhile. But once you've sunk 31.99 somewhere, if you're not completely orgasmic, you'll look back with a little chagrin. On a completely separate subject, X-Art once was talking about having a harder site, but still not information when that might happen. I think an X-Art with longer facials, maybe even a little bukkake, would be absolutely awesome. But they haven't seemed to have figured this out yet. If you had a site called "X-Art Bukkake", I'd pay $50 a month for that. Cum Play John | |

^I think most sites are looking at a middle ground solution to an ever growing problem. How much money can they charge their members so that they can keep getting new ones but not so high that they can't keep them. I don't know what the magical number is and I suspect it's not the same from one site to the next because their cost can't be the same. The strange thing about art of blowjob is that by default their cost of doing business should be significantly lower than it is for most other sites because a BJ is a fairly inexpensive thing to shoot. I can't imagine anyone paying more than 200$ to maybe 400$ for a BJ scene so you are talking a 1000$ less than a standard b/g scene. It's possible that the people behind x-art talked about making a more hardcore site but I can't see them going that way because x-axt is already the hardcore version of met-art. Unless I'm very wrong then the main appeal of x-art is that you get hardcore porn with a glamorous twist not seen on other sites. I'd also like to point out that facial and bukkake negate the possibility of adding the word glamorous to describe this type of content. Long live the Brown Coats. | |

I think that statement sums it up very well. X-art started doing hardcore before Met-Art's possible answer to that, SexArt, showed up. It's nice that glamour and real sex are not polarized away from each other as they used to be. It's nice to see models like the stunning redhead Michelle (aka Noemi, Marga) doing both with lots of enthusiasm ... at the Wow/18-only sites. I wanted something new, so I left England for New England. | |

"I'd also like to point out that facial and bukkake negate the possibility of adding the word glamorous to describe this type of content." Well maybe. What I meant then is "glamour" in the sense of the gorgeous women of vipissy.com filmed as they are with art-house production values, but doing cum art, facials and bukkake instead of receiving pee streams orally. I.e., I envision something tamer than vipissy.com but more focused on cum. Of course, X-Art does have "glamour anal" which does seem at least a bit oxymoronic too.

^I suspected that this is where you were going. I'm sure there must be a word or expression that would have a sort of similar meaning as glamorous to describe a facial or bukkake where it's more glamorous looking than basic gonzo but I don't know what it is. Long live the Brown Coats. | |

I have a limit I will pay, regardless what they offer. I have enough backup to last two life times, and if they get too outta hand I will just revert to my stash. Since 2007 | |

^Money is an issue for me as well but quality supersedes it. Of course since I currently have membership to about 4 or 5 separate sites and I am still primarily using stuff on my drives then it doesn't bode well for the future of porn if they keep raising the price and lowering the quality..

No worries... Congress just passed the Affordable Porn Act. Prices will be going down soon, and nobody will lose their favorite porn star. If you like your porn site, you can keep it. Cum Play John | |

Just wondering ... during this recession, what prices *haven't* gone up? I know I go in the grocery store, the drug store or wallmart and everything is more expensive.

^The price of corruption? I'm pretty sure it was very high before and it still very high now. Long live the Brown Coats. | |
