I find many of the' softer' sites like Babes.com or Nubiles has some genuine chemistry and enjoyment. | |

I'd think that the bigger reason that Cage wasn't selected to play this role before is that he is among the worst actors alive.  | |

^ I think that unless there is some specific thing on the OnlyFans site you want to see, or if you are a diehard fan bordering on being a stalker then OnlyFans probably isn't a good value for your porn dollars. | |

^ pat is right. I've checked out a couple of the OnlyFans sites and precisely NOTHING was viewable without a membership. It appears that joining is a leap of faith but a lot of people take that leap it seems. (As I did with Jynz Maze.) | |

I had joined Jynx Maze's OnlyFans site when she had posted some 'unique' content. I'm glad I joined but it was streaming-only (I think) and low resolution. I kept my membership for a few months hoping for more but I eventually cancelled it because she wasn't able to post anything similar to her original videos any longer. I really hope that stuff like OnlyFans and Clips4Sale isn't the future of online porn. I get that for the talent it is a way to cut out the middle man and make a lot more money, but the prospects of paying the price of a monthly membership for just one scene on Clips4Sale isn't appealing. I haven't gone down that road yet but it seems to be popular. | |

Hmmm... I hadn't thought of that. Good point. Coincidentally my computer has been running slow lately and it seemed to happen after a major Windows 10 update in December. Last week I got fed up and opened Task Manager to see what was going on and saw something that was taking a lot of resources. It was something related to HP and I have an HP computer. A quick Google search revealed a lot of pissed off HP owners because part of the December Windows update was this HP file that monitored usage and tracked stuff and reported back to HP. I don't have a huge issue with Google or YouTube tracking what I do because I know they do it and they give me a valuable service for 'free.' But it's unconscionable for HP to bury something like that into computers that have been purchased. I recall several years ago when people were just discovering that sites like Facebook track users and may people were angry at that, one tech guy interviewed pointed out that if you're getting something for free then your information is being sold to pay for that. I'm okay with that and I'm more okay when they steer me to channels like Bikini Ifrit. They also directed me to a channel with a busty French Canadian named Piper. keep 'em coming, I say! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCImh042Sqo5MilDYye2dU_A | |

I'm a bit of a YouTube addict but I don't search it for anything related to porn. That just isn't YT's thing. But recently YT recommended a channel for me. It's called Bikini Ifrit and it features an early-20s redhead with a smoking body. Redheads are like crack cocaine for me and I have an admiration of the female posterior so this site is perfect for me. Her bum is probably perfectly proportional but my personal preference is for smaller, though I could easily get lost in hers for hours and hours and hours. I'd sound like a pig rooting out truffles. So has YT been snooping in my dreams? https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSuNyZj316skzw4q_I5BYlQ | |

I check bitrates. Even though storage is relatively cheap I want to find the best balance between file size and video clarity. I won't claim any technical prowess but it seems that some scenes have impressive specs and still look crappy. I can't think of any sites that do this offhand but I have some files that have decent specs but are still pixilated. | |

I recently joined Hustler (bottom line: don't bother joining Hustler) and they billed through Vendo and I wasn't asked for a phone number for verification. That was in late December so either this is region-specific (I'm in Canada) or really new. I think you're right to be suspicious. Welcome to PU. This is a great place to hang out with other 'hobbyists.' | |

Sadly I'm too non-technical though I would love an app or program to help with this too. I'm just guessing, but the vast market of porn pirates would have no interest in this so the true collectors like most of us here would be a small base. | |

Hi Otrivine. Thanks for the detailed response. I can't directly quote you as I did with others because I want to slot the answers in with the specific questions. I hope this works... I have a desktop PC, a laptop, a tablet and a smartphone and still I prefer to work on my desktop PC. I see were both the same age. No need to justify the PC preference to me! The first two questions I usually ask is : "What is your budget and for which purposes do you need a PC"? I should point out that I'm in Canada so prices here will be between 20 and 30 percent higher than you are used to seeing. I wouldn't be opposed to spending $1500 CDN for the right specs, but it appears that I can do well for right around $1000. I guess you are using your desktop PC primarily for general internet use (surfing, E-Mail, downloads,..) and doing some administration (Word, Excel,...)? 100% correct. I don't knowingly have any big resource hogs. Windows 10 does seem to tax my system a bit, as does Windows Defender. The only other software that causes pretty much a complete inability to multitask is when Internet Download Manager is transferring a file from its temporary location to where I've assigned it to go. The crucial hardware that determines the performance of a PC are : the CPU (Processor), the RAM (internal memory), the hard disk and what most people maybe don't know the video card. I (mostly) understand the need for a good CPU and a decent amount of RAM, but I hadn't given much thought to the video card. Up until a few years ago I used MS Flight Simulator a lot and each new version required a major hardware upgrade. Back then I understood the need for a good video card. But with the current PC I think it just has video on the motherboard. I assumed that this was sufficient for what I do so I'll appreciate any advice on that. A brands like HP, Dell, Lenovo, etc.,.. are often limited in what you can upgrade regarding hardware. Besides in a lot of cases you need to buy their hardware or it might not be compatible. I'm too chicken to do any of this myself so if there is any customization going on it'll be by Dell, HP or whoever. The question you'll need to ask yourself is what can I upgrade on my current system and is it worth the money? I've pretty much come to the conclusion that new is the way to go. Considering a new desktop PC there are a few options. Buying again an A brand PC. They are usually sold as a complete system. They usually sell a number of preconfigured systems which can be changed to a certain extent (hard drive, memory, monitor, etc.,...). I'm definitely looking at those. I posted a link to one above. Most PC shops also offer a number of configurations usually categorized as budget, mainstream, gaming and high end configs. I guess that you can alter configs for an additional price. I don't know of many shops in the area. I use one for all my repairs and they are excellent for that. I once consulted them on a small form factor PC to use with a TV and they were waaaaaay beyond what I was looking for. I'm most comfortable with Windows and I recall they were trying to push me to an Android-based system, if that even makes sense. Build to order. In this case you can assemble your own PC based on components of your own choice. This requires of course some knowledge of PC hardware and brands. This is what I usually do.  Too scary!!!!I have no clue which storage you are using? Do you save your downloads on one or more local HDD's? Do you have an internal RAID system? Do you use one or more external HDD's? Do you have a NAS or SAN system? Storage isn't really an issue. Currently I'm only using 400MB of a 2TB harddrive. My biggest data storage is my 'collection' and that's all on external drives. (It's also backed up with the backups stored elsewhere...) I have to confess that I don't know what RAID, NAS or SAN is. Googling NAS it seems to be something to do with the cloud. I don't use that. I use an SSD as primary HDD. SSD's are much faster than conventional HDD's. On this SSD I only install the operating system, drivers, tools (7 zip, Ccleaner, etc.,..) and my anti-virus application. I definitely wouldn't be opposed to a SSD for the operating system for the reasons you say. I'm guessing that might not be feasible in my price range. If I'm looking to top out no more that $1500 CDN wouldn't I be better off putting the money into a better video card rather than a small SSD? 32, 64 and 128 GB of RAM sound very nice and useful but the price tag is also nice and do you really need it? If you are not using super RAM eating applications than I would recommend you not to buy more than 16 GB or RAM. I was shocked at the cost of additional RAM. The system I looked at on the Dell site came with 12. I'm thinking that's sufficient for my needs. Adding more gets expensive! You don't play high end games but a decent video card and a good monitor is not an unnecessary luxury. Others have pointed out the monitor. I think I'll do that though maybe not right away. That might be the subject of another thread where I ask tech advice.  A site I really recommend as IT hardware resource is Tom's Hardware. http://www.tomshardware.com/. This site contains lots of information, advice, hardware tests, price comparison, etc.,... I'm familiar with that site and like it. I'll be sure to do some research there. Good luck! Thanks for your advice! | |

I intended to ask about this as well since all-in-one is becoming more common. I don't think I need a touch screen but these do seem like a viable option. I'd need it for some basic applications like Word and Excel and the downloading porn, but I assume none of that would overtax an all-in-one. | |

Thanks for the advice. I've pretty much settled on new since the components, like the power supply, that won't be upgraded will still be 6 years old and more prone to failure. I'll start fresh... | |

Oops... I should have mentioned that I'm in Canada so prices will tend to be between 20 and 30 percent higher than what you'd expect to see in the US. I considered Amazon.com as well but most merchants won't ship to Canada so that leaves me having it shipped to a border town and picking it up myself. I did look at Amazon.ca but most of the stuff there is certified refurbished and had specs not much better than I have now. | |

Thanks for replying. I never thought of Amazon as a possibility. And I do have some raffle winnings on account there so that would reduce the cost. The budget isn't unlimited, but I also want a machine that won't be outdated in a month. | |

I currently have an HP desktop that I use daily. While I also have a Surface and an iPad I really do prefer the desktop for most things. It’s also the computer I use to download and organize my porn collection. I’m not really having a problem with it, but it is getting pretty old and slow. When it was relatively new I had a problem with it that would have required boxing it up and sending it away for a repair. I opted to take it to a local shop and while they couldn’t explain why, one stick of RAM was causing a problem so they just removed it. The downside to that is that I went from 8GB of RAM to just 6. The computer originally shipped with Windows 8 but I’ve since upgraded to 10. The problem with that is that when the computer is running updates or Windows Defender is running a scan the PC becomes pretty much unusable for anything else. Also, I use Internet Download Manager which seems to be a big drain on the computer. When the downloaded file is being transferred to an external drive that can sometimes take longer than the download itself and the computer is pretty much unusable while the transfer is going on. Since the computer is probably at least six years old I’m wondering if I should spend the money on some upgrades (more RAM maybe?) or just buy a new desktop. Can anyone offer any advice on this? If I do go the route of buying a new desktop (I’ll stick with a desktop) does anyone have any advice on what I should look for? I don’t need a gaming powerhouse since all I use the computer for, besides downloading and watching porn, is surfing the ‘net, reading online newspapers and watching YouTube videos. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. I should also add that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks so Apple is out. I’ll stick with what I know. Thanks! | |

^ I really wish you had found this before joining too. I'm sorry that Centrobill has claimed another victim. I checked the Centrobill site a few months ago after someone from that company was on here and said that our criticism was unfounded and it seemed that they may have created an online cancellation page but I was still skeptical. I'm glad I didn't give them another chance. Actually, while I'm not happy to hear about you being scammed the timing is good for me. There is a new site that I really, really want to join but it only bills through Centrobill. I was tempted to try them again but after hearing your tale I'll avoid the site. The annoying thing is that it is an amateur couple and being affiliated with Centrobill will probably damage them. I don't have any experience with virtual cards so I can't offer you any advice on that. Also, welcome to PU. I hope you hang around. This is a great resource and has some great members. | |

I’m looking to source all or most of the editions from the Asseaters Unanimous series by Tom Byron. Does anyone know of any subscription-based websites that have these for download? I’ve looked at Videobox and Videosz and they aren't available there. I also looked on the Evolution Erotica site (that’s Tom Byron’s studio that produced the series) and they only have DVD sales there. I’d prefer to avoid having to buy the download-to-own option from VOD sites because that can get expensive. Any advice will be appreciated! | |

I'll confess to have read through this thread and I'm confused as to what you're looking for. I think a bisexual site could work but, as pat says, it is a narrow niche, though I don't think it's as narrow as pat posits. I don't actively go looking for bisexual sites so I'm no authority on them but I currently have a membership at Mile High Media and they have a bisexual site as part of the network. It has 130 scenes and is updating. I don't recognize any of the models but they appear to be Eastern European. | |

Yeah, you sort of wonder what life after porn is like for such an energetic performer with so few limits. I just can't see her fading into suburban obscurity working at a flower shop. But then how would I know?  | |

I feel like I’m stepping into a minefield here… But at least I can take some comfort in knowing that in my ten years as a member here I’ve only rarely seen something end up in a shouting match. I have to say that I don’t think I can stake out an opinion on this because the circumstances could be different for different networks. If there is a relatively generic network that has a BDSM-themed site on it I might write a review for that BDSM site separately since many BDSM fans wouldn’t think to look at a mainstream site for that niche. I was just looking through some reviews of sites I have written and I’m ‘guilty’ of reviewing individual sites on networks too. Take Nubiles Porn, for example. I was planning a review of this soon since for some reason I’ve never reviewed the network but some digging shows that I have reviewed several of the sites. One time I reviewed two of the sites from the same subscription but for the other two site reviews I’ve written those were each on a different subscription. The reviews span three or four years. As I said, I really don’t have a solid opinion on this issue, but I joined Driver XXX not even knowing it was a Nubiles Porn site. The reason I reviewed it is because as a fan of car sex and road head porn I thought I might find some there. When I didn’t, I wrote a review. Two of the reviews that I wrote flowing out of different descriptions I definitely do not regret simply because of the niche in each site. I reviewed Petite Ballerinas Fucked last year mostly because I really liked it and I know of no other site with that focus. And if you’re wondering what that niche is, the title tells it all. The other site that cried out for a review was Nubiles Casting. When this site was updating it was among my favourite sites on the internet and I wanted to share that thought. I know I don’t really want to stake out a position here, but I think if I come close to a position it is that I’m okay with reviews of sites on networks if the sites are demonstrably different or stand out in some way and the review is informative. I don’t think the commenter that started this debate intended to be inflammatory (and I don’t think he was either) and neither do I think that the reviewer intended to review all 30 Brazzers sites. I hope that Amanda and staff would step in if a reviewer tried to post 30 reviews of sites on a network that were 90% the same. Both positions are valid, and while a real value of user-written reviews is that as a prospective member of that site I can join knowing the strengths and weaknesses of the site or network. The key is having reviews that contain useful, objective and substantiated information. I don’t really care how many points a person has behind their name. They could be new with only two points but if they write a review that provides a lot of useful information and is objective then I’ll appreciate that. (As and aside, before this issue had come up I was planning a review of the entire Nubiles Porn network because there have been some new sites added and some of the older ones have stopped updating. I had contemplated a separate review for one or both of two new sites that both serve narrow niches that I like (red hair and braces) but since the sites are so small for now my plan was to simply roll them into the overall review. Sometimes what I’ll do, and I may do that here, is post a comment on the specific PU page for that site directing any future readers to the main review.) Sorry gang… I guess I droned on a bit… | |

I'm hoping the need to use real models prevails until my porn viewing days are over. Which, I hope, coincides with my death. | |

I hope I didn't mislead anyone by putting Pierre Woodman's current work in the 'negative' list. I put it there because I think his work has become more polarizing than when he was with Private. Both of his sites (Woodman Casting and WUNF) are often on the rougher side and that may be off-putting to some potential subscribers. The casting site is the less rough of the two but many scenes are truly just casting interviews with some nudity. WUNF is all sex and is more rough. I highly recommend both of those sites but I prefer WUNF since it has sex in all of the scenes. One other caution is that Pierre obviously doesn't have the budget that he did when he was shooting for Private. No one has that budget any longer! Don't go in expecting location shoots in exotic places. Both sites give access to a lot of trailers so you can make an informed decision on whether or not you want to join. Both sites are among my favourites and you should consider taking a look at them. (I've had trouble with adding links too. I've tried again later and it has worked. I'm be interested in reading the other thread, though I could make an educated guess that it is on ADT. PU/TBP and ADT aren't really competitors so I don't think you'd be breaking any rules if that is where the link is from.) | |

^ LOL! The comparison between the two is hard to avoid. There are a lot of similarities but I think there are a lot of key differences as well. Max did more than just dress the models as young girls; he had them play young girls as characters. I recall one scene where Max was violating his female co-star and she says "But I'm only twelve years old!" Bryan doesn't cross that line. The other big difference is that in his later years* Max's scenes were about him violating and degrading the female for his own pleasure. Her pleasure isn't even contemplated. Some will not agree with me on this point, but the HH scenes are not solely about Bryan's pleasure. The scenes are about two people having raw and rather exuberant sex. They aren't making love, but there is room for raw fucking too as long as both parties are into it. I've seen most of the HH scenes and there is real pleasure on display from the women in those scenes. One caveat to this is that Lana Rhoades did complain about Bryan after her scene. I can't recall the specifics, but I think it had something to do with a misunderstanding of something she thought would be edited out but Bryan intended to include. It may be Lana getting peed on. That was in the original cut of the scene but then it got removed and now it's back. * I've always categorized Max's scenes on a timeline. His earlier scenes were quite different from his later scenes. I remain a fan of his earliest scenes and one is on my Top 10 Favourites of All Time list. It’s Tammi Ann in Hitchhiker 1. Then again, that was when Max was ‘just’ a director for Zane Entertainment. I’m only partly kidding when I say that on the Max timeline to depravity I see a hard line between the earlier scenes when he did oral on the women to the older scenes where he doesn’t. In those later Max scenes there is an element of meanness on display and that doesn’t exist in the HH scenes. | |

^ Interesting point. I'm still not ready to jump into the VR world but I suspect we'll continue to see that technology grow. | |

Hmmm... good question... I suspect the answer will depend a lot on how people define provocative. Given your example I suspect you mean this in the positive sense. If we define provocative in the sexual sense (positively), some provocative sites and directors would be: Tushy.com Hard X Erotica X Teen Fidelity If I give the term a more negative connotation, as in deliberately causing a strong reaction, some sites I can think of that certainly provoke and cause strong reactions (positive or negative depending on your interests): Hookup Hotshot Assylum.com Slave Mouth Woodman Casting X Wake Up N Fuck Legal Porno Kink.com I'll be interested to read what others suggest. (BTW - I'm a big fan of the Private classics too.) | |

So I’m hoping that some of us will weigh in with our thoughts on the past year in this shared hobby we have. Do you have any favourite sites (new in 2017 or new to you or just a site that has remained as a favourite for years)? Any new models who exploded into your collecting? Any models who have been in the business for a while that you just discovered? Any favourite scenes? Any trends that you like or dislike? Any disappointments? In the interests of starting a conversation, I’ll start… Sites: My favourite new site in 2017 was Daughter Swap. I can’t say for certain that it went live in 2017 but if it didn’t it was in late 2016. I first joined in early 2017. Not only do they feature two models of the variety I like per scene, but most of the scenes spend some time setting up a premise and building some sexual tension. Honourable mention goes to Slave Mouth, the oral-themed site affiliated with Assylum. If you like this kind of porn, this site is a must. More established sites that continued to win my porn dollars are: Hookup Hotshot – Bryan Gozzling’s site features his exclusive scenes with some of the hottest talent in the business. While it isn't for everyone, he continues to produce some high-energy scenes. Amateur Allure – I can’t really say why, because it is obviously subjective, but Amateur Allure has been my favourite porn site for going on four years now. Yes the scenes are formulaic, but I find that formula works well. Every week I eagerly await the latest scene. Legal Porno – I have a love/hate relationship with Legal Porno. I love them for the incredible porn they make, and the volume they make it in, but I hate them for taking such a big chunk of my monthly porn budget. For those unfamiliar with LP, they aren't a subscription-based membership. If you want to download a scene you have to buy it individually or buy tickets to use to purchase it. Each scene is priced differently, but it is fair to say that most are in the $5USD range. Still, if you like this style of porn they do it really well. They also seem to be bringing more American models in for scenes too and have created a new ‘studio’ called “American Anal.” I suspect I’ll be spending a lot of money there in the coming year. X Empire – this is a new network made up of the former sites Hard X, Dark X, Erotica X and Lesbian X. I was a regular subscriber to three of those so I was very pleased to see them get bundled. To make things even better, TBP offers an amazing discount. Swallowed – this is the oral-themed site by Mike Adriano. What’s not to love about one, two or even three top models giving sloppy blowjobs and rimjobs? Tushy.com – I’m a big fan of anal sex scenes and all of the scenes here are anal. What makes the site even better is that they have a lot of ‘first anal’ scenes, which is also something that I collect. Models: Cadey Mercury – I realize that IAFD lists Cadey as having a bondage scene in 2015 but it is reasonable to say that her porn career didn’t start until 2017. It was love at first site for me with Cadey. I collect everything of hers that I can find. Hannah Hays – Hannah embodies the type of model I like. Another case of love at first sight. Charlotte Carmen – same as with Hannah. Unfortunately Charlotte doesn’t seem to be very active these days. I hope she shoots more, but her scene at Exploited College Girls was her first anal so that will always be on my list of favourite scenes. Kylie Martin – Kylie just started recently and has done an anal scene at Hookup Hotshot. I’m definitely going to be looking for more scenes with her in 2018. Anastasia Knight – I just ‘discovered’ Anastasia two days ago when she was part of the Amateur Allure update. I’m looking forward to seeing more of her. Scenes: This is a tough call but a few really stick out for me. Lily Jordan and Cadey Mercury at Daughter Swap. I really like the scene set-up in this and it doesn’t hurt that both Lily and Cadey look amazing. This was my introduction to Cadey and she was on my favourites list immediately. Pepper Hart at Hookup Hotshot – I like most scenes on this site but this one was just worked for me. I like Pepper and this scene was over the top. For fans of watersports, this is one of the HH scenes where you’ll find it. No anal though…  Riley Reid at Blacked Raw. There may just be one or two porn fans out there who don’t like Riley Reid but I can’t imagine there are more than two of them. Riley always brings a lot of energy to her scenes and this one is no different. What makes this scene a favourite for me is an extended session of Riley rimming the male talent. Riley goes at this with enthusiasm. For rimming fans, this is a must see. Lily Adams at Amateur Allure. Amateur Allure rarely uses any plot or premise in their scenes and this is one where they do. Lily plays an innocent computer tech who is at the studio to fix a computer and she stumbles onto porn and wants to experiment. This scene really does it for me partly because I’m a big Lily Adams fan. First anals in 2017: There were certainly more than this, but this is a list of some of my favourite stars who lost their onscreen anal virginity in 2017: Alex More – Bang Bus Andi Rye – Tushy.com Blair Williams – Digital Playground Haley Reed – Tushy.com Liza Rowe – Anal Training Teens Whitney Wright – Tushy.com Zoe Clark – Tushy.com Pepper Hart – Tushy.com Charlotte Carmen – Exploited College Girls Hoping for anal in 2018: I have my fingers crossed that Cadey Mercury, Lily Adams and Hannah Hays will all start doing anal in 2018. Trends: A trend that I’ve noticed that seems to be isolated to Evil Angel is that a few of their directors have their own sites. That’s not a bad thing with Mike Adriano because his stand-alone site Swallowed has exclusive scenes. But I avoid downloading any Hookup Hotshot or BAM Visions DVDs from the Evil Angel site because both Bryan Gozzling and Mick Blue have stand-alone sites where the offer the same scenes but with a bit more footage. I get why EA has a differently edited scene, but as a collector this means three subscriptions instead of only one. The premise of incest porn continued unabated in 2017. I’m not necessarily opposed to incest-themed porn but the reason I’ll join pretty much any site that features it is because many of the scenes are father/daughter or step-father/step-daughter and I’m a big fan of the older man/younger woman niche. The other reason I like incest porn is that a lot of it has a good scene set-up. The niche lends itself to having a scene set-up that builds sexual tension. Disappointment It seems like we’ve been promised a hardcore sister site to FTV Girls for several years now. It was supposed to go live in 2017 but that didn’t happen. The site owner had been active on another forum but went silent after the site didn’t go live when promised. FTV Girls features some amazingly beautiful models in softcore scenes so the chance to see some of them in hardcore scenes is great. But I’ve given up on FTVX. If it ever happens I’ll definitely join, but I suspect it’s more of a porn unicorn now. Site that I want to like but can’t because it is just so completely fucked up: This ‘award’ has to go to Girls Do Porn. I joined it again earlier this year and was reminded just how bad it is. The models are amateurs and are incredibly hot. The scenes are middle-of-the-road but are worthwhile because of the models. But the site itself is a standout example of how not to design a porn website. It is among the worst sites, from a technical standpoint, that I have ever seen. I can’t ever see myself rejoining. | |

The Internet Adult Film Database (IAFD) is also a great resource. By searching their vast database of models you'll get a brief bio with the years she was active. You'll also get a lot of information on the scenes she's been in. http://www.iafd.com/index.asp I suspect the one caveat for all of these sites is that not all porn stars announce their retirements and simply fade away. There is also a thread over at ADT where you might find more recent information since many of the posters there seem to follow models on twitter. https://forum.adultdvdtalk.com/retired-pornstars--relatively-recent | |

As a fan of fresh talent between 18 and 20 years old it has just occurred to me that this year we will undoubtedly see some new talent who were born in the current millennium. I honestly don't know if I'll find that hot or whether it'll be creepy. Maybe I should just embrace the whole 'dirty old man' thing. For the others here who share a similar interest, what are your thoughts? | |

Thanks for posting this. I had no idea what the difference was and this solved a mystery for me. I have 300Mb service but when I download I use Internet Download Manager and 'only' see downloads in the high 30s. I assumed I was being throttled somewhere. So I did a speed test and I'm getting 312Mb/s and that translates to 39MB/s, which is what I'm getting. I'm guessing that you didn't expect to make someone's day brighter with that post, did you.  | |

Thanks to everyone who replied. I was hoping that someone might have had a positive experience but in the absence of that I'll steer clear. The biller is located in India and I'm otherwise fine with that but since no one can vouch for them I won't be using them. Oddly, the site (Blackmailed) appears to have some affiliation with directors usually associated with Evil Angel. I wonder why Blackmailed just wouldn't have used the Evil Angel biller? I've never had a bad experience with them. | |
