Pros: |
- Attractive, clean models
- No connection problems or other hiccups
- Competent direction (a step or two above typical pizza delivery porn setup)
- Very good videography
- Small file sizes are decent quality, which is good because of a sister comment in the cons
- Download managers are allowed
- No download limits that I encountered
- Photos are available |
Cons: |
- HUGE video sizes for anything HD.
- Site design seems really nice and clean until you actually try to download something.
- Ads. I paid to be here, guys. Want to run a site with ads? Run it at a reduced cost with the subsidies.
- Poor choices on site design
- Gets predictable after the first three or four videos you watch. |
Bottom Line: |
Blacked is, as you may have guessed, black men having sex with white women. It's a much different approach than Blacks on Blondes (and thankfully lacks the download limit that dogfart claims doesn't exist) in that the setting is usually a well-dressed, well-spoken woman in a nice home being seduced by, or seducing, a clean --- although often heavily tattooed --- black man.
It's a good site and I recommend it if you have any interest. The models are attractive and often dressed up in nice clothes or lingerie, and the scenes are filmed extremely well. It's a very good buy if you like the premise and or actresses.
It's not a perfect site yet, though.
It's still sort of small, although I obviously think it's reasonably sized and mature enough to join.
If you're on anything under 25Mbps you should expect to spend two or three months there if you want the HD and 4K clips. It's a bit ridiculous, really. I can't see much of a reason for there to be a jump from 500MB for the very crisp and clear SD version to a marginally better 720 version that is 3GB.
The videos are fairly predictable, and it seems like it's nearly the same script for all of them. This premise, the woman does A, the black guy does B, the woman and black guy do C, D, E, and F, and at some point around C or D the wife will say her husband never does that.
As I've said before, Want to advertise? Offer two prices. One slightly cheaper and ad-subsidized, one a couple of bucks higher and ad-free. If the ads are subsidizing a reduced rate/discount then I don't mind so much. I suspect they're there for everyone, though.
The most glaring problem is the site design after you click to download anything. Lots of sites are taking this complicated approach these days, but it's a problem on Blacked. Click the download link and a popup (java?) covers the entire screen to offer you your choices. Click on whichever choice you want and it will occasionally start the download. I'm not sure why it has so much trouble, but it's almost like the clicks register but the system doesn't care. Left or right clicks won't don't do anything at nearly equal rates. Eventually the link will register and give you the option to save, but often an error message will appear. It's almost like a timeout, but it happens within ten seconds or so. Very weird site choices.
TL;DR - Put download link choices on the page under the video, and don't require three or more clicks to get to the content. Done and done.
Would I join again? Yes. The good outweighs the bad by a large margin, and the bad is mostly little annoyances. |

|
Pros: |
- Pics zips
- Various video formats available
- 1080 and 720 HD videos
- An enormous site with lots of content
- Download managers work, sort of
- No download limit that I found, but I'm on a slowish connection
- Discounted promo rates
- Tremendous amount of MILFs, which is definitely an added bonus for my tastes.
- Lots of variety in actresses. Blondes, blacks, Hispanics, Euro, etc. If you like it they've probably got it.
- Lots of stockings, lingerie, and glam hair when I didn't expect it. Again, added bonus for my tastes. |
Cons: |
- Not all clips have photos, and not all photos are .zipped
- Actresses are sometimes listed twice (Chastity Lynn is in both "C" and "L" sections). Might not be padding, but still.
- Very, VERY much a pornstar site. Yes there is some glam and stockings, but it's overwhelmed by thigh tattoos, breast, butt, and lip implants, etc. You won't go through more than a couple of scenes before you run into ridiculous fake tits (why, ladies?)
- Advertisements inside paid area
- Questionable video formats/quality
- Download managers seem to be hit or miss |
Bottom Line: |
Brazzers was on my radar for a while and I'm glad I finally tried them. It's one of the big names of the industry beside NA, BangBus, etc., and I'd already tried the others, so...
This might not make much sense until you see it, but I really approve of their non-gonzo approach to filming women giving oral sex. If face-fucking can possibly be considered tastefully done, then Brazzers has figured out how to do it. There is often quite a bit of sound involved, but little to no drool and none of that degrading gonzo-style "woman laying on her back and saliva coating her hair and making her eyeliner run before the man puts a foot on her head while entering her from behind" that so many sites have embraced.
There's a lot of campiness involved in some very unbelievable scenes. Alana Evans having unnoticed sex with a friend while he and two other men (one her "husband" IIRC) sit on a couch watching a ball game comes to mind, but they're fairly easy to excuse, too. I'm not knocking points off for that sort of stuff, just noting it so it's not too surprising when you see it for the first time. It's a comical setup to a pretty good follow up.
I'm a bit particular about video encoding rates/efficiency, and I really didn't get their approach. They list the bitrates on the video choice when you choose your download, and there is a huge jump between 2000 Kbps and 8000 Kbps 720p clips.
Put another way, there are either enormous (1 or 2+gb) 720p and 1080p options, or you can choose a near-unwatchable by modern standards blocky and poor-quality option that is a drastically smaller download.
Big gripe- I'm fairly sure there were multiple time-based downloadable clips when I joined (if you just wanted to grab the five minutes at the end for example), and now they're gone. That's very disappointing.
Download managers work, but the links time out or you will be logged out of the site and you'll only get a couple of the clips you queued up.
*** HEY BRAZZERS***
Offer something between the crappy SD clips and the enormous 720p and up ones. Give an in-between HQ option to bridge the gap. Look at Milehighmedia for examples.
Bottom line:
Some irritations, but a huge site with a lot of content, and it's one of the very few sites I carried on with an annual membership. |

I got a promo code that offered the network at a greatly reduced price. I'm a fan of a couple of the actresses, so I figured, "Sure, why not?" Now I'm just offering warnings to others.

Pros: |
- Quite a few photo sets available for some of the corresponding videos (see first paragraph, though).
- Photos available as zip file (again, see first paragraph).
- Possibly some exclusive content.
- Lots of behind the scenes stuff if that's your thing. Maybe even exclusive BTS stuff if that's your thing. |
Cons: |
- The photo sets will have fewer than ten pictures.
- Broken links and other site foul-ups
- Lots of behind the scenes stuff that can seem like filler if that's not your thing. |
Bottom Line: |
There are photos and zips available for the scenes, which is good. Unfortunately, the photo sets and zips that I bothered to click on had fewer than a dozen photos. I'd say closer to eight in the ones I looked at.
There are 150 or so videos. Quite a few appear to be behind the scenes and interview type clips, and I wouldn't be surprised if they were exclusive. Because why wouldn't they be? Who else would want them?
I'd say fewer than 25 of the 150 videos are offered in HD. The rest are 360p.
FWIW, I didn't click on every single video. I didn't see the point after seeing that they appeared to be low res leftovers. I DID take a sample to make sure I was not being overly critical. One from 2008 is 360p. It looks like garbage and is mostly unwatchable. There is another video option, though. 160p. And if you think the 360p looks bad, just wait until you get a chance to see something that's half as good. Clicking on the last page to check the updates, you discover that the last "page" is a direct link to a video. Keep in mind that this is supposed to be a page full of other updates. Something with a number on the bottom to move to the other pages. Nope. It goes to a scene clip. But hey, who cares? You paid, so the site probably served it's purpose.
Are there positives? Yeah, sort of. If you are a big fan of her and want every single thing she's ever done, then you'll probably find an unwatchable clip or two here to never watch after you download them.
Would I recommend? Absolutely not. Just another Open Life cash grab. |

|
Pros: |
- Photos that might be exclusive
- Zip files seem to be available for the sets I browsed
- Many boy-girl sets |
Cons: |
- Probably only 30 or so videos
- Low resolution video clips
- Ads inside the paid area
- Small site overall |
Bottom Line: |
TL;DR version- Another website in the openlife network to steer clear of. The regular problems. No updates, poor video quality, low content overall, etc. Avoid.
Expanded review:
The videos are almost all mostly unwatchable. This seems to be a common theme to the videos on the openlife network, so it's nothing to be surprised by.
You'll also discover videos that are incomplete. One eight minute clip with the lovely Haley Cummings comes to mind. It's one of the few offered in better than 360p (720 and 1080), but it's incomplete. Ms. Calogera and Haley Cummings perform oral sex on a stunt cock for a few minutes, then there is a little bit of sex, and then the video fades out and ends. No finale, nothing. Just fade out and that's that.
There is no rhyme or reason to video quality, either. A quick look shows that a video from 2012 is only offered in 360p or worse, while one from 2010 has 720p and 1080p options.
Which brings up another con (or maybe a pro if you're desperately searching for the one or two high definition clips on the site): The site is very small. There are only 30 or so video clips. On the bright side, you won't have to spend much time scanning through and opening every video link to see which ones are HD.
Something that might be the biggest pro: There are quite a few photo sets. I'd estimate 25 or so. Some of them are in very high resolution and with pages and pages of photos available.
Bottom line: Avoid. Even if you're a huge fan, avoid unless you can get the entire network for a buck or two, and even then make sure you wouldn't rather just rent a movie or videogame from Redbox instead. |

Pros: |
- A few HD video clips.
- Photos are available for some of the videos, and some photo sets are even available as zip files.
- I suspect some, or even all, of the material is exclusive.
- I think there's one exclusive HD boy-girl scene here if you're a hardcore collector with money to spend. |
Cons: |
- Most videos appear to be 480p or worse.
- Only a few boy-girl scenes.
- Small site.
- Photos for some sets appear to be screengrabs of the video.
- Ads inside the pay area.
- Lots of low-res solo stuff.
- Updates? Ha. Don't be silly. I saw no evidence of such things.
- Other sites offer more of her content, plus hundreds of thousands of other clips if you happen to enjoy other attractive women, too. |
Bottom Line: |
Mmm, the lovely Charmane Star. What a great opportunity to get some exclusive videos and photos featuring such a striking young woman.
Such a shame you should probably look somewhere other than charmanestar.com if you're interested in her material, though. Honestly. Videosz.com shows over 100 clips featuring her, and I'd be shocked if they don't look much better than the low-res ones offered here. Don't misunderstand me, though. I'm sure there are some exclusive videos and photos at this site, and I honestly wouldn't be the least bit surprised to learn that it's all exclusive content. I'm just not certain they're worth spending the money on unless you're a CRAZY big fan of this lovely young woman.
The site has 30 or so videos and a similar number of photo sets available. The weird part is that at least one of the photo sets looks to be a repeat. I didn't care enough to investigate and compare any further, but the thumbnail and titles are the same, so one can guess it's the same set being repeated. Is it intentional to pad the numbers or accidental and just an oversight? Or is it just incompetence and poor web design on a site and network that arguably shouldn't even exist in the first place? Hard to say. Can it be both?
The site appears to offer three or four boy / girl scenes, and only one of those was offered in better than 480p. The rest of the clips are solo, lesbian, and behind the scenes types. All of that is fine, too. Just know what you're subscribing to.
One of the more amusing (and bizarre) elements of the site was that the photo section is titled "ASIAN PORN PICS" while other uh, less asian actresses on other Open Life Network sites just have "PHOTOS" at the top of their photo pages.
It looks like there are fewer than ten HD videos.
On the pro side of things, and so this doesn't seem completely contrarian (although it should certainly be read and understood as 95% contrarian), there were zip files available for the photo sets I clicked on, the photos looked nice and were professionally done, and I didn't encounter any download limits or very slow speeds. Full disclosure, though: I doubt they would enforce strict download limits on the 1GB or so that I downloaded. These positives are reflected in my score and raised the site five points to a solid 56.
If you like paying for five to ten mediocre high definition videos an extremely limited number of low-res videos and a few photo sets, this place is just right. Otherwise I'd suggest avoiding the site and network. |

Pros: |
- Lets you choose models by breast size, which is a nice touch and pretty unusual in my experience.
- You can create your own video clip from the larger scene (looks like a 5 minute size/time limitation)
- .zipped photo sets available for many / most scenes.
- Good PU discount
- No DRM or download limits. |
Cons: |
- Ads, ads, and more ads.
- More than a few technical issues.
- There isn't enough room here. See below. |
Bottom Line: |
I even ran out of room here, too. I'll touch on some of the main points, though.
- 540p and 720p clips are identical sizes when downloading. (Catherine E, Carol A., Carina E., and many others). Sorry guys, but that's not possible. And it kept happening. I'd say 70%+ of the clips that didn't have 1080p as a download option were the same size when I checked. It would be okay if the rest of the site were outstanding, but as it is it only serves to make it appear even worse.
- Photo sets for many scenes are laughably small (600KB). I understand that many shoots are old, but one would think the images were archived at the best quality, and it doesn't seem likely that it would yield a web-page-promo sized set. Which brings us to:
- Not a whole lot of content considering the brand has been around for a very long time.
- Wrong actresses pictured in name/scenes. "Jeanine" (Rihanna Samuel) uses a photo of someone else entirely for the main thumbnail, which is a very bad thing on a site where the actresses use aliases.
- Scenes' pages have different formats. Some might list download options as "1080p, 540p, and 720p" while others list "High, Med, Low". It looks like it's different because the former is .mp4 while the latter is .wmv. Which brings us to:
- Multiple formats, but not in a good way. Streaming for one clip uses jwplayer (java?) but you're prompted to get silverlight for the same model's other clip on the next page.
- Lots of ads in the scene listings. Yes, they're listed as "bonus" videos, but you can't download them unless you pay somewhere else, which means they're advertisements for other sites sprinkled directly within the model's scenes.
- No useful naming structure or any meaningful identification of files. Oh no, one of the downloads failed. Which one? Who the hell knows, and you'll never, ever know unless you cross-reference each video in the folder full of "540p_fullcomplete" files you've been downloading against the hundreds of available videos on the site. Good luck. What was I looking for again? Oh yeah, her. Hey, there it is. That one. 540p_fullcomplete. Thank goodness I found it. Oh no, it's not that one. Maybe it's 540p_fullcomplete. Nope, not that one, either. 540p_fullcomplete, maybe. Nope. Not that one. 540p_fullcomplete? Crap, no.
It's especially irritating since each and every video is clearly given a name on the page you download from. "Christina Sits by the Pool" or "Jenny Is Home Alone" or something similar (each of those is made up, btw) is listed above the download options for every video. What do you get when you click them? 540p_fullcomplete and 540p_fullcomplete.
Other than grabbing a specific actress' clips and images, I can't see much of an advantage of this site over just joining Videosz or Videobox. They might not have the *exact* same content, but they appear to have lots of similar content if you just want to sample (24 pages of "Video Art Holland" clips, ~700 or so scenes at VB), and I bet the names have SOME defining characteristic, even if it's just the title of the movie. Not to mention thousands of other scenes from dozens of other studios, too.
- Actresses are often not credited and you only know the name because a comment was left by a user who helpfully tells everyone who she is.
- "Girl of the Week" repeats. Weeks 193 and 353, and 174 and 108 (and somehow amazingly the same as "Request 348"- why wouldn't the fan who made the request just go to the model's page and download the scene that already exists?) are an example, but there are many others.
- Lots of technical annoyances. For example: If you click on an image to view it it will load with the website darkened in the background. If you then press the right arrow to move on to the next image, the background (the website) will shift to the left. If you continue pressing the right arrow to view other photos in the series the website will shift entirely to the left side of your monitor, almost disappearing, and you'll need to move it back to the viewable part of your screen to continue.
- On the plus side, there are a few standout videos you should definitely get if you decide to join. 1080p_fullcomplete was almost perfect, with great models, good acting, and really nice action. 1080p_fullcomplete was another one that is a must-get, too. And if you like lesbian scenes, do not miss 1080p_fullcomplete. The energy between those two is amazing.
Bottom line:
This site, like Private, has such potential, talent, and name recognition that it could easily be competing at the level of the other big-name top tier sites, but the combination of "meh" quality, slipshod site design, and indifference to user experience / user friendliness is really disappointing.
Would I recommend? Sure, why not? It's cheap, it's not absolutely horrible, and you could complete a favorite actress' scene collection if that's what you're after.
Would I rejoin? Unlikely. |

Pros: |
- Allows download manager (DTA)
- Decent download speeds when accessible.
- Some photo sets are zipped. |
Cons: |
Some truly unattractive women. 50% or more if I had to guess. Not beer-goggles women. I mean actual homely and/or fat and homely women. It's easy to pick out the (attractive) pros' videos because they're the ones you don't squint and scroll past.
***HORRIBLE VIDEO QUALITY***. The highest setting looks to be 640x426 @ 2700kbps WMV, and most vids are around 100MB. Think 1998. Remember the old free Bang Bus clips you'd find in xxx galleries? Yep, that bad.
Add to that poor lighting, bad angles, etc.
Seriously, the video quality is so bad that sometimes I only knew the guy had orgasmed because I saw a change in the woman's stroking tempo.
Joined on Saturday morning. Their server was overwhelmed and inaccessible by 9am and I couldn't view any pages until that evening. Fortunately:
Very little content available. Divide that by half (unless you like homely women in low-res videos) and you've got an entire network that you can browse and download in less than 1/2 a da |
Bottom Line: |
Avoid.
Overpriced and outdated. Fortunately I clicked through to the signup page and then attempted to leave. I was offered 10 days for $10 and decided to try it.
I still feel a bit ripped off because one day is all you need. Clubtug has 13 pages with 12 vids each. Cumblastcity, seemomsuck, and over40handjobs have less than a dozen pages total with 12 vids on each page. I'd give you an exact number, but the server is inaccessible again.
UPDATE 1/22/12- Total pages of the four sites mentioned above is 30, with 12 (fewer if it's the last page) vids on each, and many repeats between sites.
My DTA queue has just over 200 videos lined up for download and I've seen every page. If I saturated my DSL line I could've had the entire network (well, all I wanted) downloaded in a few hours.
BTW, many of those other sites have repeats. Maybe only 35% of the videos are worth getting after you factor in the ugly girls and the redundancies.
I can only go on my opinion, and no one can account for personal taste. I like clavicles, tan-lines, and almost-invisible hair in backlit photos of thighs. Other people won't find that appealing. But dang there are some unattractive women on this site. More power to you if that's your thing, but I'm guessing you could find an ugly woman site with higher quality videos and photos.
That said, the photos are occasionally decent, although they're web-viewing size only. It doesn't redeem the site, but it should be mentioned. Unfortunately not every video has photos, and those that do aren't always zipped and available for downloading unless you're willing to click and save each individual photo.
Not recommended. |

Pros: |
- Multiple download options
- No download limits
- Attractive female models
- Above-average production values |
Cons: |
- Small site
- Doesn't seem different enough to warrant a separate site
- No epoch or CCBill option that I could find |
Bottom Line: |
This is a fairly short review because it's a small site that probably should just be a part of a _____x.com network. I have no problem paying for smaller sites, btw. This one just seems way too close in style and substance to other _____x.com sites to merit a standalone / additional cost site.
If you are looking for well-shot, attractive people having fairly vanilla sex but with anal instead of vaginal intercourse, these are probably decent sites to consider.
Bottom line: Look at the hardx review to get a feel for the good and bad for darkx, too. This seemed pretty much identical except for having black male leads and fewer clips. |

|
Pros: |
- Gorgeous models
- Above average productions
- Download managers work.
- No download limit (note that another recent commenter has had issues that he thinks might be token related).
- A ridiculous amount of available content.
- HD except for older content.
- Multiple video encoding options.
- .zip files for photos. |
Cons: |
- Video quality of older content isn't that great, but the site has been around a long time so that's forgivable.
- Can be repetitious.
- Not much variety in skin color. |
Bottom Line: |
To me DDF is a Euro equivalent to the big sites like Naughty America, Brazzers, etc. There is little to no gonzo-style gagging or the like, but there is a substantial amount of foot fetish, watersports, and bondage in addition to the standard formulated and fairly vanilla sex. The modern stuff somehow leans more to the tasteful side of things even in the raunchier corners of the network.
There are different sites in the network dedicated to the above as well as lesbian, busty, blowjobs, etc., but when you go to the main page all the scenes and updates are organized together.
Speaking of, the sorting options are nice. You can choose a specific year if you want to start at the beginning of hundreds of videos, or you can pick the months in that year.
The majority of models are gorgeous, and the hair and makeup artists are obviously very skilled. Even the less attractive models look good, and it's shocking to see some "casting" style photographs of the models before seeing them in photos and scenes later. Some are almost unrecognizable (in a good way).
I didn't encounter any download limits, and it was no problem at all to pick the model, load up a bunch of links in my download queue, and come back later with it still chugging along and a few dozen gigabytes downloaded.
HD video (720 and 1080), but I didn't see any 4K options when I was a member through the end of January 2016.
Bottom line- Great site for collectors in general and especially those who enjoy European models.
Would I join again? Definitely. It's one of the only sites I've ever bought an annual membership for, so yes, absolutely. |

|
Pros: |
- Quite a bit of BG hardcore
- Apparently more than a few HD offerings
- Guest appearances by other big names
- Photos available as zip files |
Cons: |
- Like most sites these days, the website is a little busy at times (script and such)
- Ads inside paywall
- No longer updating (stopped in 2015)
- Strangely, not many photos |
Bottom Line: |
What a weird and unexpected site. This is possibly the first site from Open Life Network that might possibly, maybe, potentially be worth joining at a greatly reduced price if you're a hardcore collector of Devon Lee material.
There are 75 or so videos. If I had to guess, I'd say the most recent 25-30 are offered in high definition.
I was also surprised to find quite a bit of smoking fetish material in the site. It's not my thing and I'm not sure if the content justifies joining, but it's there and nice to see they sort of made an effort to add some interesting content.
The other sort of nice discovery was content with her not wearing a lot of makeup. I'm sure there was enough to keep the lighting correct or what have you, but there are scenes of how she honestly, truly looks, and it was quite nice.
The last update appears to be from 2015, so that's fairly typical with these Open Life Network sites. They're all pretty much dead, and you shouldn't expect any updates.
Most of the other Open Life caveats apply, too. The older videos are fairly mediocre in quality and, while there aren't download limits, there are pretty limited downloads. You can probably download the entire site in a weekend or even just a few hours if you've got a fast connection. Yes, you'll have access to other sites on the network, but they're not that great, either. You can see my reviews for Ashley Fires, Bree Olson, and others on the network to get a sense of what to expect. Most of the others were written as a warning, though, and this one might be the first one that I am writing as (just barely) a recommendation.
Would I recommend? I don't know. My first instinct is no, but this might have some stuff that really, REALLY dedicated Devon Lee fans would like, and it might even be exlusive and hard to come by. If you're a big fan flip through the pages and see if it's stuff you don't have and can't live without. If so, see if you can get on a mailing list for a greatly reduced rate because the site, even with additional network sites, really isn't worth $15/month. But it might be if you just can't stand not having every single thing Ms. Lee has ever done.
It's a very firm "probably not but maybe" I suppose. 60% probably not and 40% maybe. |

Weird, especially considering my internet connection is only physically capable of (ideally) 65 GB in 24 hours.
I wonder if they don't allow download managers and that's what triggered it?

Pros: |
- Large site with lots of content
- Average to attractive women being seen to by black men with large penises
- .zip files of photos for every set I looked at.
- Epoch is payment processor.
- Simple site with simple navigation. Other sites could learn from this layout.
- Reasonable video sizes with good quality
- Deeply discounted rate was offered after canceling. |
Cons: |
- 10GB/day or so download limit.
- A bit too heavy on the "they're all thugs playing dice in the alley" black guy stereotypes, but I guess that's part of the fantasy. FWIW, it would be nice to see some (legal) businessman scenes incorporated, too.
- Lots of fake tits and thigh tattoos, although I recognize that's the direction the industry has moved towards.
- Scene tags don't help much. "Hairy" is anything from a full belly-to-bottom bush, or just a little landing strip. And sometimes it produced scenes where the actress was fully shaved and bald as an egg. Or maybe it's the guy in the video. Hard to know for sure. |
Bottom Line: |
Good site with good content.
Attractive women servicing BBCs, and different scenarios / fantasies spread over a number of sites on the network. MILFs, cuckolds, black on white, white on black, individual actress sites (Ruth Blackwell, Spring Thomas, others), etc. It's one of the biggest, if not THE biggest, players in the niche, and it has years of content available using lots of big name actresses as well as unknowns.
Quite a few of the "big" downloads failed before they finished, and links/pages don't stay alive more than 30 minutes to an hour, so download managers don't work too far beyond the most basic "download this single file and nothing else after it" functionality.
I ran into a weekly download limit (somewhere around 10GB/day if I had to guess) that is not mentioned in the terms or on PU/TBP. You still have access after you go over, but you can only stream until their clock resets. I don't remember the reset time limit (sorry), but I'm guessing it's at the end of the week since the page telling me I couldn't download any more since I'd hit the limit specifically mentioned "week".
Bottom line: I liked it, but note that it's aimed towards non-collectors with fast connections who are interested in streaming the majority of the content and only want to keep a few items here and there.
Would I join again? Yes. |

Pros: |
- Pictures available
- Some hd content
- Um... Let me think... No download limits? Yeah. No download limit. |
Cons: |
- Small site
- No longer updating
- Most videos are low quality |
Bottom Line: |
Boy, I sure do like Dylan Ryder. Sure the fake breasts take away from the overall glamour of such an attractive woman, but I understand the direction the adult industry has gone. Hey, maybe since this is Dylan Ryder's official site there will be lots of content with her natural breasts and maybe some hair down... Oh, wait. Nevermind. I forgot that the Openlife.com network doesn't really do content or updates.
Let's see, the last update is listed as 2013.
Content-wise, there are 25 or so hi definition clips out of the 60-ish video total on the site. There's a decent mix of solo, lesbian, and M/F, but there are still only 60 or so clips available, and more than half are low quality. And when I say low quality I don't mean not HD. I mean early 2000s dial-up thumbnail gallery advertisement quality. The content may be exclusive, but I'm guessing you'd do much better spending your $20 at bang.com (40 Dylan Ryder clips listed) where you also get a few thousand other actresses on the network, too.
It looks like there are fewer than 20 photo sets. It's a shame because some of the photo sets are very well done. Most are glam sets and the approach really suits her. She's a very attractive, very nicely shaped older woman who should do more of this work. The sets are available for downloading as zip files, too.
I don't think that's enough to warrant a recommendation, but the photos are solidly in the "pro" column. It's just a shame that something that should be a given on an adult site has to be marked as a "pro" and focused on so heavily because other "pro" things are so hard to come by when reviewing the site.
Recommendation? Avoid. |

Pros: |
Cheap, especially with $5 promo in your spam box.
All clips are available to download in everything from low res up to 1080p formats.
Good speeds.
Decent couples scenes if you and your significant other are into that.
No download limits and download managers work. |
Cons: |
Small site. At the time of this writing there are 22 pages with four videos on each page, so under 100 clips total.
Three BIG "trusted partners" ads on the bottom of each page, and that's 10 points off the score immediately. |
Bottom Line: |
Not a bad site, but not when scenes are compared to some similar ones on their Mile High Media sister site. Plus you get the added benefit of having hundreds and hundreds of other clips for the same price as Erotica X, because you and your partner may want to warm up with a nice candlelit romance one Tuesday evening but a raunchy three-way after a few glasses of wine on Saturday.
It's a small and okay site, but, honestly, it could just as easily be a "romantic" section in the total Mile High Media (or some other Fame) collection and not an entirely separate website. |

|
Pros: |
$5 promos come in your email spam folder.
Interesting variety. European women, panty cumshots, anal, shemales, etc.
Reliable, easy to navigate, and no captcha. Just a simple login button.
I didn't encounter any download limits.
Multiple streaming and download options.
Good download speeds. Saturated my DSL connection every time. |
Cons: |
Wow at the focus on anal sex/play and degrading blowjobs (Could be a pro for some)
Weird encoding. One video at 540p may be 400mb while 720p is 1.5gb and 1080p is nearly 3gb, and another video may be 400mb/700mb/1.2gb for the same choices.
Lots of shared videos between separate sites. |
Bottom Line: |
Decent quality/speeds/selection/etc, especially if you get in on one of their $5 email promos, but:
The network portrays itself as MUCH larger than it is, and that's why I couldn't give it an 80. There are 20+ other sites included, but many of the videos are shared between three or more sites.
Newer videos offer 720p and 1080p download choices, but, for collectors just wanting to maximize quantity and value, the sweet spot looks to be the 540p (web HD) choice. The quality is good while being half the size of the 720p and much smaller than the 1080p.
Download managers work but the network will log you out every few hours and you'll end up with a text or html file in place of the videos. Be sure to save your download list to resume.
Euro Angels itself isn't too bad, but I can't stress enough just how much of the network's focus is on anal, ATM, and sloppy blowjobs. The lack of balance was a negative for me, but it could be a positive for some.
It's worth $5 if you're considering it, even if it's just to grab a few of your favorite actresses. |

Pros: |
- Big names like Veronica Avluv, India Summer, etc., and less known actresses as well.
- High production values (very much not a romance site, fwiw)
- Attractive models doing raunchy things
- Great value. Lots of content on each site plus additional large network access
- Good PU discount
- Download managers work
- Photos available |
Cons: |
- Niche. Be sure you're into what they're offering
- Doesn't seem as responsive with more than one tab opened
- Photos zips are huge.
- Videos seem to be padded a bit with BTS and "best of" style compilations here and there, but still an enormous network. |
Bottom Line: |
Very much a gonzo network.
Enjoy anal, choking, matted-hair, running mascara, etc? Enjoy spit, gagging, ATM, stuff coming out of throats and noses, feet-on-head during the anal sex (even when it's lesbians using strapons) in your adult films? Like a few shemales alone or with men and women here and there? This is the network for you.
The site/network will log you out every so often. I couldn't see a particular pattern, but you'll want to check in every so often if you're hoping to grab some videos with a manager.
The video quality is good to excellent, although I didn't see any 4K. That's not an issue for me, but the highest offering I saw was 1080p. One of the best things about the network is that most of the newer clips are offered in everything from 160p to 1080p for download. I thought the 540p offered the best size/quality tradeoff, and the HD clips often weren't significantly better looking to justify the three or five times size differences. The older clips might only be in 360 or 480, but that's fairly acceptable considering their age.
Production values are generally high in the newer scenes.
Actress-wise, There are some good scenes with stars like Lou Charmelle, Courtney Cummz, Dana Vespoli, and others. BUT, if you see an actress you like, you'd best want to see her doing some pretty degrading stuff. If that doesn't float your boat, reconsider pursuing your favorite actress on this network. Again, anal is ever-present, as are choking, gagging, drooling, etc.
There were some surprises in the actress list, too. It was nice to discover some unknown work by Jessica Nyx, Alysha Rylee, and others. It's always pleasant to stumble across those kinds of things at a site you were visiting almost entirely because of previously unknown work by another actress.
There are photos and photo zips available, but the sizes seem way too big for what they are. 300MB for a set wasn't uncommon, but 50MB would've been more appropriate for something that is essentially complimentary to the video. The lighting in the photos was worse as well, and often too dark. It was a strange contrast to the overly-bright videos.
Bottom line- Anal. Choking. Drooling. Running mascara. Sound good? Join. |

Pros: |
- Multiple download options. Most videos offer small but decent quality .flv, 720p .wmvs, and a medium quality .flv that splits the difference. Some offer more in-between options.
- 720p videos for most if not all of the shoots
- Streaming doesn't count against the 20gb/day download limits.
- A few pros, but mostly girl (and some boy) next door types.
- Very attractive models (majority European) and a few fairly plain ones.
- Decent acting, although it probably helps that I don't speak the language.
- Frequent internal cumshots |
Cons: |
- Downloads limited to 20gb per day (again, streaming apparently doesn't count against it)
- No indicator showing what you've used or when the limit clock resets. Midnight? Noon? The hour and minute you joined? Who knows.
- The 720p videos don't really look all that great. They're okay, but very few of them seem worth the massive size, and there are often artifacts. Considering the size and download restrictions, they don't make too much sense to download unless it's a model you really like.
- Subtitles take up room on the screen
- Ads after you get inside.
- Banner at the bottom of some of the standard definition .flv clips that are available for download saying something along the lines of "this is a low quality clip from fakehub.com, to get the HD version..." |
Bottom Line: |
First thing - I subtract 5 points immediately if there are ads after the login page, and there are three in a row similar in dimensions to the clickable videos. They're at the bottom and not easy to click on, but I still paid to get in and I don't need or want advertisements, especially when there is already a "promos" link at the top that takes you to a page of ads. I'm fairly okay with that one since it's not obtrusive and they are offering discounts, but I greatly dislike constant advertising within a paysite, even if you have to scroll down to see it.
-
Overall the fakehub network is pretty good. I'm not a huge fan of the "fake" premise, but it has quite a few videos starring Zuzana Z and Szilvia Lauren, and I am a huge fan of both of them. So I joined.
There are three "fake" scenarios. A doctors office, a taxi, and modeling interviews.
-
The doctors office is the weakest, mostly because of the attempt at replicating a hidden camera. If that's your thing, that's fine, but the problem is that it is mixed with decent non-hidden camera clips, but not when you may want them. You'll get a hidden camera scene of oral sex and you can't really see too much, but a standard video clip of intercourse clearly showing the small of her back. And then it's back to hidden cameras for the finale. Puzzling, but, again, not my thing, and it may be exactly what others like.
No real point in choosing the downloadable HD videos for this scenario that I could tell.
These are mostly male doctor and female patient, and occasionally female nurse and female patient. I don't think I saw any male patient female nurse scenes, although I didn't look too hard.
My suggestion? Offer both hidden and non-hidden videos for the same scene. You've obviously got them, and making them available doubles (triples) your video content for the site.
-
The next scenario is the taxi. A driver picks up a passenger, something happens to require the rider to show her breasts/give oral sex/have sex/etc. to "pay" for the ride.
It's okay, although the occasional enormous "FAKETAXI.com" sticker in the rear glass of the vehicle pretty much dispels any illusion.
Again, the HD scenes are dark and grainy and not really worth downloading unless you like the specific model.
Not too bad overall, though.
-
The fake modeling agency is the best of the bunch.
A male or female "scout" interviews models, gets them naked, takes some photos, and explains that more detailed photos and videos are required to see how the prospective model will perform for the clients.
The male scout interacts with females, while the female scout (Zuzanna, Szilvia, Barra, and Jane, a gorgeous brunette MILF) then interacts with both men and women, and occasionally a male scout will join the FF scenes as well.
I'd imagine it's because of the controlled environment and decent lighting, but these offer the network's better HD scenes.
* edit* forgot that there's a public version as well. Things happen in public-ish area after an "agent" approaches potential talent, often filmed at night or in darker locations.
-
What would I recommend to make it better?
- A limit counter or at least some indication of when the clock resets.
- Get rid of the banners on the standard definition .flv files.
- Photo options.
- Consider offering surprise bi-mmf scenarios with the female agent interviews as well. The setup would be essentially the same as the MFF scenes that are already being done, and it's an underserved niche and could easily be incorporated and draw more customers. Implement a similar scheme as tainster's "fully clothed" offerings so that you offer exactly the same scene with two different outcomes/sites and people who were/weren't interested could choose accordingly.
-
Would I recommend it? Probably. It has some things I dislike and a few disappointments, but it's worth a look if you can find a deal. |

Pros: |
- Real life weird Japanamation fetish come to life!
- Meets a particular genre
- Some fairly popular models at times
- Less erotic but more realistic than straponcum.com
- Pictures and videos.
- Download managers work, no download limits.
- HD and SD .wmv and .mp4. HD looks pretty decent and is reasonably sized.
- Good download speeds saturated my DSL |
Cons: |
- Deceptive bait and switch of available videos. Caveat emptor. More below.
- Slow updates. They release photos, then days or weeks later they'll release the corresponding video.
- Overpriced at $30. The $15 rebill ( and with such infrequent updates I have no idea why ANYONE would do that) is much more realistic and would have more people re-joining.
- Pretty darn specialized fetish and definitely not for everyone. But hey, that can be said for any fetish. Different strokes, etc.
- Camera angles don't seem to be much of a consideration.
- Nothing fancy regarding the site itself. If you like flashy you're in the wrong spot.
- Some models aren't very attractive, and the style of filming/clothing doesn't help.
- No zip files for photos. |
Bottom Line: |
I liked the site
BUT
- Quite a few of the videos are pretty ridiculous (exercise ball sized breasts and/or a prosthetic penis the size of two fire extinguishers laid end to end and/or two or three dicks sprouting from the same girl). But hey, the premise is pretty ridiculous to begin with and I'm sure someone likes it, so this fulfills that demand.
- Some well known models including India Summer, Alex Chance, Abby Cross, Alexis Monroe, Alison Pierce and others working under silly names like "Zoey Zipperripper" are on the site. A real-name reference (I think it's run by the same folks) can be found at http://futanaria.ws/category/real-names/
- Don't expect much in the way of cinematography. Most scenes are filmed from one or two stationary tripods.
- The worst part is how they present their available content. Go ahead, click on the link taking you to the site.
Now go to "see all scenes" at the bottom right of the page after clicking through the content warning page.
It looks like there are five pages of ~75 videos available for download when you're initially clicking through the site and considering joining, doesn't it? After all, you're "seeing all scenes," right? Now scroll all the way down to the bottom and be sure to catch that little "Note: Older videos are rotated offline and can be purchased at Radrotica.com" text.
Now go to radrotica in a new tab (keep futanaria.com open) and see what their latest futanaria video available for purchase is. Remember the name and go back to page 1 of futanaria.com's "see all scenes." You're probably still at the bottom of the page, so scroll up. Up. Up some more. Up. Keep going. Are you around halfway yet? Okay, start looking for the name of the scene that is available for purchase at radrotica.
Everything past that isn't available for download unless you pay them $3-$5 per clip at a different website.
Now go ahead and count up what IS available for download out of those five enormous pages of clips.
It's less than 40, isn't it? 40 clips out of the 300+ shown are available for you to download with your paid subscription.
Again, it's not a bad site and definitely fills a niche, but it's extremely deceptive and pretty overpriced for what you're allowed to see of their library.
I gave it a 70 because it's such an exclusive niche and the videos aren't horrible, but everything good about the site only brings it up to a 70 since the deceptive available library nonsense easily knocks 40 or 50 points off. |

Pros: |
- Large site with lots of content
- Big name actresses
- Hidden gems are there waiting to be discovered (Jayma Reid, tons of Prinzess, Elexis Monroe, etc.)
- Download managers allowed |
Cons: |
- Video quality is absolutely horrible. The top offering often looks like what you'd watch on free popup-filled tube sites, and sometimes worse. More below.
- Logs you out a couple of times a day and you have to enter captcha to re-enter
- Dead links, repeated names, poor oversight of website
- Most video sizes are huge for such low-quality clips.
- Scenes are often fairly uninspired
- No photo options (view or download) that I could find |
Bottom Line: |
If you've seen any of the Mother Daughter Exchange Club clips you may understand why I was excited about this membership. They have 30 pages (w/30+ clips per page) of content going back to 1999 available on the site, so it held a lot of promise.
Sadly, it lasts right up until a day or two after you join. There were some technical issues like dead links, but those things happen occasionally and can be overlooked. The big problem was much more obvious.
There are lots of talented and attractive actresses, but often the scenes are underwhelming. Too often they come across as actresses getting paid to say these specific lines and lick these specific parts. That would be okay if the details were filmed better and showed more of the action, but unfortunately that doesn't happen very much, either. It ended up being a tremendous disappointment, and the reason is simple: The quality of the majority of their clips is pitiful, and it makes the entire site such a letdown that you'll probably stop visiting it less than halfway through your membership period.
Example:
One would hope the site has access to the source material for the films, but even if they don't I'm fairly certain the company has access to at least one copy of the DVDs they are making available for download. We'll use MDEC #6 for this. There are four clips offered, with the 360p options averaging 500MB or so. The 480p options are around 1GB each.
Don't miss that: A ~30 minute 480p option is one gigabyte.
Remember, the DVD itself would only be 4.5GB, but they have DVD or near-DVD sized files while still looking like free tube site videos. This makes no sense considering the DVDs are sharp and clear, and a quick google search would yield tons of free rippers that would convert the entire movie to 700MB and probably still end up with better quality.
(And who knows what professional options are available for ripping those same DVDs to offer on the site.)
Instead you get dark, bad-looking individual clips at 500MB-1GB that you'll probably only watch to see a favorite actress, and then it will be deleted and/or forgotten about soon after because it's simply not worth re-watching.
Of the 30+ pages of content, only the five or so most recent pages offer HD. FWIW, even those HD clips are way too big (2GB 720p scenes)
There is quite a bit of tribbing and old/young matchups, but eroticism is often lacking. Another problem is lack of attention to lighting and what is happening in the scene. Masturbation or oral action is often blocked, and when it is open and visible it's difficult to see because the lighting is usually fair to poor. Combine the lighting choices with bad encoding and you'll end up regretting downloading most of the scenes you decided to get.
Again, it's especially sad to realize you could just as easily have been offered the entire DVD at better quality and a similar size to one of the crappy 360p clips.
FWIW, I've seen clips for sale at VOD sites, so I'm fairly certain decent, and likely even high, quality examples exist.
Bottom line: The site has so much potential. Newer videos, while still overly huge, are okay quality-wise, but the total content isn't worth it. If you do join I'd probably suggest only downloading clips from 2015 and on, but so much content is excluded with that caveat that it saddens me to say I probably wouldn't recommend joining in the first place. You're likely better off finding the actresses you enjoy and just buying the single scene or the cheap DVD they're in. |

Pros: |
- Big name actresses and some less well-known performers
- No download limits
- Good production values
- Clean actresses in tasteful settings and clothing. Or not, depending on the story requirements.
- Multiple download formats/sizes
- Photos available for viewing and downloading |
Cons: |
(All fairly minor complaints overall from a person who thinks he's usually overly critical)
- Large-ish, but not huge, site that's still growing.
- Some scenes seem a bit repetitive, but that's likely unavoidable considering the content.
- Logouts/captcha logins.
- Fake tits and tattoos, but that's the state of the industry these days.
- Videos sometimes shot intentionally in lesser quality just to promote a particular fantasy. Explanation below. |
Bottom Line: |
I'd joined almost entirely to add to a certain actress' collection, and this site has been one of the most pleasant surprises I've discovered in a very long time. The scenes are filmed well, the lighting is good, the action is visible without being noticeably direct (legs or arms aren't at odd angles just so the camera can get a shot), and there is even a bit of acting here and there.
The thing that surprised me the most was how much many of the videos reminded me of older Sapphic Erotica scenes before the site lost some of its mojo. Remember back when the scenes would have eroticism, tribbing, entire-mouth-on-labia deep sucking, and somewhat forceful, involved oral sex between the women? Remember seeing clips and the entire thing seemed fairly believable? That's what quite a few of the Girlsway scenes reminded me of. There is sexual energy in a lot of these videos that rivals those old SE clips. I'm sure that's in large part because of directing, and kudos to the people responsible. Keep it up.
One of the better premises and filming techniques is the lesbian POV scenes, but they're a bit worse than they should be because often they switch to the POV perspective by showing what they film with the ipad or whatever tablet they're holding in the scene. While this is true to the fantasy aspect of the girls filming themselves with the device, it's a bit jarring to go from a crisp HD image to what appears to be a less-than-HD, or at least a less-HD, video setting (not to mention one would think the devices would look much better than what is presented). I appreciate the idea of giving the POV angle a bit of graininess for the sake of the fantasy, but it's sort of disappointing to have a POV scene of a favorite actress pleasuring another gorgeous woman and not have every available pixel working to its fullest to show what's happening.
And then there are other clips where the site truly shines. One memorable example is a scene with Mindi Mink and (IIRC) Samantha Hayes that is probably worth the price of admission. The two seem to actually enjoy themselves, and the oral attention given to Mink is not only convincing and enthusiastic, but also filmed in a way that shows Hayes' long hair falling onto the stomach and hairy pubic mound of Mink. Those are the types of inspired scenes and small touches that make this site worth joining.
Bottom line- I'm surprised at how good this site was, and I'm sure most of the credit for that goes to whoever is in charge of directing the scenes. If you have any interest in girl-girl scenes involving beautiful college-aged women (which seems a bit silly to even write, doesn't it?) and the occasional MILF thrown into the mix, have a look at this site.
Would I recommend? Absolutely. |

Pros: |
- Some decent resolution photos with the video sets.
- Even better, photo sets in zip files for the ones I checked.
- Seems large-ish for an Open Life Network site. |
Cons: |
- Access/uptime is spotty. "Error 521 web server is down".
- Lots of filler behind-the-scenes/masturbation type clips.
- "Large" for an Open Life Network site still only means 50 or so videos.
- Crappy video resolution on the few samples I checked. |
Bottom Line: |
This seems like one of the larger Open Life sites. Don't misunderstand and think that's a recommendation or that this is some great, huge thing that deserves your money. Just that, when compared to the other tiny cash grab sites on their network, this one seems like a larger one.
I found the site down a couple of times. Not a huge deal, but also not something you like to see as a paying customer.
The worst part of the site is the low resolution videos. This appears to be a common problem with most, if not all, Open Life Network sites, and part of the reason I found it appropriate to review each individually. Someone joining Hannah Hilton might not check the broad network review, much less Ashley Fires, Abbey Brooks, etc., to know that each site is almost complete crap. Hannah Hilton is no different. There are some photos, and some decent photos, but the majority of the videos are borderline unwatchable. Maximum 360p clips are definitely unacceptable on a paysite in 2017, and of the three samples I grabbed (random video from page one, random one from middle of page list, and random video from last page), all of them were 360p. So yes, there are quite a few videos of the lovely Ms. Hilton available, but none are worth the time or effort to watch unless you're a HUGE fan or just like video quality from around 1998 or so.
There are ads on the site behind the paywall, but you discover you don't care because there's not really much to keep you coming back to the site, anyway.
There are quite a few photos sets, and the ones I saw had zip files available for downloading. That's nice, but it's not enough to justify spending any money or time at the site.
That's probably the ultimate bottom line, now that I think about it. I usually try to type out a summary, but I think that's it. Some good photo sets, but not worth the price of admission.
Very disappointing. Avoid. |

Pros: |
- Good lighting, video quality, etc.
- No download limits that I encountered
- Multiple video sizes available for download
- Big names and up-and-comers.
- Decent mixture of white and non-white actresses
- The anal isn't the degrading foot-on-her-head gonzo style that is so popular these days. |
Cons: |
- Checkbox cross-sales when subscribing (webmasters, is that one-time $30 or so worth a user never, ever subscribing to any of your sites again?)
- Anal in almost every scene, although that's probably a pro for some. "Hard" in this usage = anal.
- Photos intermittently available for downloading. Seems odd for such a new and well-designed/planned site. |
Bottom Line: |
A good looking, responsive, polished site featuring attractive women having anal sex or being gangbanged. I'd guess there are 200 or so videos. There is a decent mixture of college aged women and MILFs. Occasional tattoos but not really prominent. The same with fake tits (why, ladies?). There is some running mascara here and there, but even the gangbangs didn't really strike me as gonzo-style porn.
If you're not into anal/DPs/gangbangs you'll get bored pretty quickly. I'd guess there were only a dozen or so videos out of what I glanced at that didn't involve anal sex, and it makes one wonder the "analx.com" domain was already taken when this site was developed.
Video download options went from small portable-friendly clips to 1080p with four or five options in between, and even the middle option (540p) looks very good considering the size and quality tradeoffs compared to the larger HD files. Kudos to the site for this.
I think offering a "best of" HD clip of the major points or finale similar to what Naughty America and Team Skeet provide would be beneficial to this site. Offering a clip with the anal and ATM edited out might increase appeal to more subscribers as well.
Would I recommend? If you're into anal, yes. It's an attractive, well-done site with high quality videos. |

Pros: |
- Attractive models
- Epoch as biller
- Photos available for some sets
- Quite a bit of fetish variety. DPs, rubber, dungeons, etc. |
Cons: |
- Definitely a pornstar site. Fake tits, tattoos, etc.
- Frequent logouts, have to go through captcha to get back in
- Photos intermittently available. When clicking the "download" link for a set's photos I was redirected back to the homepage on more than one occasion.
- Questionable lighting choices in a lot of scenes. S&M = abuse your eyes.
- Download managers work, but are kind of pointless since the links die when the site logs you out after letting you get two clips.
- No distinguishing names for videos. You'll have a folder full of "scene_sd_high" clips and no idea what's in any of them.
- Models listed but have no scenes
- Missing videos |
Bottom Line: |
Lots of decent content but a fairly irritating site. Better overall than Stiffia.com, but still obviously a stiffia site because of site decisions.
Possibly the first time I've seen interactive S&M. You're part of the action as you realize your eyes are hurting from bad lighting and poor focus in many of the scenes.
Click on a scene and you'll get four video download options, but there is little to no rhyme or reason regarding sizes. Some 1080p clips will be 2GBs, and other similar-length 1080p clips will be 500MB. It doesn't make any sense, and the video quality isn't drastically better between the clips, either.
Some download links will be missing after you click on them. ipod, SD, 720p, and 1080p will all be offered, but 720p might have nothing there.
You'll be logged off fairly often as well. I'd estimate I could download two or three 500MB scenes before getting kicked out and needing to re-login to the site I paid for.
"Size mismatch" errors when trying to download videos.
Bottom line: Maybe join if you get a discount and see something you need to complete a collection, but expect to be irritated and disappointed. |
