Where did I say that everyone who gets charged fluctuating prices complains? Where did I say that all sites which don't use regional prices go under?
"Regional pricing" is not an euphemism for looting. It's all in what the website decides. CCBill allows for different charges for U.S. versus European users, a site could set up, say 25 euros for European residents, and $35 for U.S. residents, and some do. That is regional pricing, it is close to fair enough for everyone, CCBill allows it, it's the website's choice to make use of it or not.
There are advantages to regional pricing, it is just up to the site owner to use his own judgment of what he wants to do.

One of the advantages of regional pricings are that the prices are fixed.
If a site is 30 euros/month, in Dollars one month it's $45, next month $47, next month $40, next month $50. I'm sure that fluctuation pisses off a whole other set of subscribers too - "Why am I being forced to pay $50 when last month it was $40???!!!"
Regional pricings are not inherently evil, it's just a tool for the site owner to use at his own discretion. It's not "an euphemism for looting".

| Pros: |
-updates 5 sometimes 6 days every week
-full archive going back to 2006
-features top models most from Czech & Hungary
-1500 & 3000 pic sizes & zip files
-.mov, .wmv, .avi video options up to 720p
-no drm, download limits that I'm aware of
-small discreet watermarks
-very little photoshop touch-up if at all on the photos
-all site updates shown in the preview pages |
| Cons: |
-videos are just recordings of the photoshoots and often are split into multiple files (.wmv joiners can easily put them back together without re-encoding the video)
-uhhhh, the girls are _too_ stunning? |
| Bottom Line: |
It's a fetishy type site featuring bikinis that are ridiculously tiny, as in they are there but not really, and some of the bikinis just look at them and question the sanity of whoever designed them ;)
Beyond that, a good softcore posing site of all outdoor settings, most often a beach. Near all the photos are full body shots. Some girl/girl photosets. Typical sets start with the bikini on then at some point they are pulled off to the side or removed completely.
Beautiful girls posing in small bikinis, that is what this site is =D Not terribly expensive, and the monthly price automatically lowers for successive months. |

All the Met-Art videos I have seen are just recordings of the photography shoots, I wouldn't include those types of videos in this type of a discussion.
Think of, say, the videos on Only-Tease/Art-Lingerie much much better.
Basically it seems to comes down to, if the video stars a girl who is great at her work, any type of softcore video is amazing. If the video stars a girl who is not as suited for this line of work, then most of the above options don't help.
Take a great girl, and have her in lingerie movie around, is tops.

Good to know about a limit. Though 50gb is quite a lot, I have to understand on their end bandwidth does cost a lot more than on our end, and they do want to pull in some revenues to create more content for us.
50gb per day is 1.5tb per month, and about 3,000 scenes - for $20, yea they offer it, but I mean, that's less than one penny per scene.

"What we really need are more cute and adorable softcore models."
It starts with more consumers willing to spend more on soft content. After that the material will follow.

Then just don't join the site.
Not every site has to be custom tailored to your specific fetishes. There are other people out there who like other things.

I don't know if it's a ripoff or not, I just think it's a bit disingenuous to bash a site based on a trial subscription. Maybe it was never supposed to be a full access trial, that this site has their facts wrong? I don't know.

Little harsh?
It's a part of a network of 8 or 9 sites. Join one get them all. What about just describing the site for what it factually is, leaving out the subjective commentary, let others decide its value? Even if the material is non-exclusive, if someone never joined a site that shared these photos, well...

But we already knew that. 8,000 dvds for $17.95 eventually has its breaking point on the industry.

Send off an email to the owner of the site, he's actually quite nice to chat with. I don't like the photosets divided up into groups of 40 images either - but I've had a little custom program here that I can reprogram to quickly rename files in any way I want. For instance, on his end, if just the letter & picture number in the filenames were switched then they could all be placed in one directory and be in the proper order. Like the first photo for Eufrat's set is 0031_01_a_01.jpg if it were changed to 0031_01_01_a.jpg , and image 0031_01_b_01.jpg were changed to 0031_01_01_b.jpg alphabetical order is now also chronological order of the entire set.
The first photoset released with Eufrat is absolutely stunning to see in it's entirety, so, try asking him, see if he'll budge!

Sorry to hear. No-name billing like that is nearly always bad news, and for anyone else reading, should *only* be used if your credit card issuer offers virtual card numbers that not allow anyone to charge more than what you specify before-hand.
They try to make it seem like it's an independent billing company, but my money is on it actually being in-house billing.

Yes, we already established here that they do have downloadable video files. They made that a part of the site very early on. The early stuff was PAL resolution & framerate, 4mbps h.264 encoding.

Then from their perspective, you're trying to download the full site on a trial subscription, of which after the affiliate fees, billing fees, hosting fees, etc., she's bringing in like a dollar maybe two for a life of naked photos. People who attempt site rips on trial subscriptions piss off webmasters just the same, probably even more so.
Sites cannot survive off those who just want to queue up as many downloads as their internet connection can handle.
If the speacial deal is, $15/mo. & 14 zip files per day, then each zip file downloaded is less than 4 cents. If you want to agree that a photoset is a ripoff at 4 cents then be my guest to do so.
If you're a fan of Sarah Peachez and still don't think she's worth even a nickel of your hard earned cash...

Question is not specific enough.
$1 trial through a reputable billing company, then it's okay.
$1 trial through an unknown or in-house billing, then far more often than not it is some type of scam to charge higher amounts to your card.

All of orgymax's content has been moved over to the redesigned tainster.com site (well I shouldn't say all because I cannot verify if all, but looks like nearly all are there). Subscription options are really confusing though, if you want to see their scenes just go with the option titled "Eromaxx studio flat rate XXL", the cheaper up-front options just end up costing substantially more along the way.

They have action videos. But they do not create matching pairs, like ddf or 21sextury do.

I have wondered, do you offer up the photosets that accompany the scenes, on your site? There are a lot of free preview galleries around, though the last time I subscribed almost none of them were offered inside. If there is a dvd of yours I want to see I prefer to rent the dvd for the best quality, though I do like being able to get the pictures that go along with them. Thanks.

I hate their network setup, unbelievably confusing to no end... but I know all the content on playfulhands is duplicated on 21sextury.com and I think so too the content on peepeebabes. Not sure about fassinating but it might be as well.

Their tour pages come up very fast for me at the current moment, and my maximum internet connection speed doesn't come close to even 600kbps, I would *love* to have that speed ;)
As always, check you have the most current versions of Adobe Flash & Java installed on your computer - and with Flash there is an install for IE and a separate install that covers all other browsers.

I don't think the site is so bad. I'm currently in the middle of a full-year subscription with them & I'm still liking the site. They put out 13 scenes a month, some of them are amazing, some of them average, some are poor. Plus the huge archive going back many years.
As for canceling, even if one forgets, there are just four options try one & if you're not listed there, then try the next.

I've subscribed on & off over the years, never had a problem canceling. It's all done through established 3rd party billing companies, Sapphic Erotica is not using in-house billing.

Probably a false positive. Kaspersky says no virus.
Besides, that site you sign up through verotel, is it bongum or verotel you think has the problem?

I never understood the aversion towards sites that no longer update, and especially the users who then jump on this board and give it a review score of 50 solely for no longer updating. Thankfully I haven't seen one in a long while.
Okay, a site that has a backlog of 500 sets available but no new updates, does it really piss people off having access to _only_ 500 sets instead of 500 plus 5?
And sometimes you get lucky, last month I joined a site that I new had a short life & hadn't updated in a year, but I still wanted the content. Got in, immediately downloaded the sets I wanted, two days later the site goes offline forever... and I get a full refund from ccbill! Would be surprising for many, I was actually contemplating not asking for a refund, because I know the guy put out a lot of his own money to create the sets I wanted, he deserves the money... but then I figured with this chance spend the money on someone else who is still producing new sets with my fav girl!

Their new options for $32/month & $40/month seem to indicate they are "all you can download" options. I don't know.
Actually, looking at it seems it's an "all you can download" from the scenes marked as "eromaxx" with all others being extra pay.
Confusing would be a gross understatement...
