LatexRyan's Review
I concur with tangub - both in thanks for another good review, and in being a bit uninspired by the settings. This is definitely the kind of glam latex wear that appeals to me... but I prefer a bit more context to drive the imagination - the plain studio backgrounds are lacking a bit and make it perhaps more of a non-starter for me than for you.

I've not joined abby winters... but if you like the idea of natural Australian girls (although there may be less of them since they moved out of Australia?) I can recommend Girls Out West. It's possibly a bit more down to earth than AW, but there's plenty of explicit nudity and action there...

I did read your review pros, which is why it's more of a shame that you give such a poor score to this popular site for doing what pretty much every site does. Any sites you've joined that don't work this way are in the very small minority; and again, by this logic you will score almost every site listed on TBP at 50.
I am neither condoning nor condemning the practice of automatic rebilling; just stating that it's almost universal in the industry; I think every site I've joined rebills until cancelled. It's easily dealt with as Cap'n mentioned; and most sites make it very easy to cancel (difficulty in cancelling WOULD justify a poor score).
It's unfortunate that you perhaps weren't familiar with this when singing up to AW - although I see on their join page, each option has 'rebilling' stated very clearly next to it.
End of story for me, at least :)

As tangub said, that's a little harsh - suspect this may be your first pay site join, since it's pretty much standard practice with porn sites to do recurring billing and leave it up to the customer to cancel.
Whether or not you agree with it, you'll end up giving all sites 50 because of it :|

BradlyH's Review
Brad, thanks for the extensive and helpful review!
'why does it feel like I'm subscribing to a new car ?'
I kind of got that impression whenever I visited the site, thinking of joining - I know it's big with a lot of material, but the options thing is a bit over the top and if you want a variety of stuff, the full package is quite expensive.
I've seen some material from here and liked it - and as you say, others have rated it highly, so I may try it at some point - but like you, I'm slightly more drawn to Girls Out West so will probably try that first.

I share everyone's previous impressed-ness with your score of 100 here, messmer :) Another site which I've been tempted by but not yet joined... although I see you've given the possibly comparable Girls Out West a high score, a while back. It possibly seems a little raunchier? I may be tempted to try it before AW.

No problem! A couple of replies: as regards the security, traffic through a VPN is encrypted by the VPN provider - so in theory an unscrupulous provider could track what you are doing - in just the same way your own ISP can. However, when you are at an https address, then your browser and the remote server are encrypting your card details etc over the VPN link - so it is no less or more secure than using a card over any other kind of link.
I've had good experience with TunnelBear so far - as well as being very easy to install (sign up, download, press the on switch) - every regional priced site has seen me as being in the US. Once I get to the payment page they don't seem to care that I put my country as UK - the price is the same.
But I've only used it to sign up for sites and thereafter turned it off to log in and access them - since the free account is limited to 0.5GB/month. If the site won't even let you log in as a member from the UK then you'd need to use the VPN for browsing/downloading also, so you'd need to subscribe.
HTH :)

Hi gpl - TunnelBear is your friend here - it's a VERY easy to use VPN client which will let you pretend you are in the US. I use it for avoiding regional pricing; but note that if you joined and you had to still use it it for content downloads, you'd need to get a paid subscription.

Thanks for pointing this site out - I'm planning to join one of the Japanese sites at some point and this looks to be the best I've seen so far. Not really into the extreme stuff, but it seems they have so much material, and good filtering, to make it easy to find something appealing.

Seems like you're back on the mature sites, messmer :) Thanks for the review - I've not joined any Ferro sites, although I've been tempted since they have a few nylon-themed ones, I think. But now we are used to some very good sites, it seems a bit much to charge a full $30 for such a basic setup...

Just as I was going to call you a fag... :)
Great review, MB - this is a site on my list too, but agree completely about sets that concentrate too much on the same shot!

I'd be interested to see some more samples of this too. I'm keen on smut with an angle to it, and this - admittedly ludicrous and inauthentic :D - alpine setup is definitely an angle. If they were to talk dirty too, I'd be tempted!

Agree with Nasos - I think it's OK to talk about it, especially when the simplest way - downloading TunnelBear - is so easy.
Download, turn on, join site as if you were in the US, turn off again (the free account has limited bandwidth) and log into your site.

Alt Exclusive

78.0

| Status: |
Current Member for less than 1 month (at the time of review).
|
| Pros: |
- Genre-leading models
- Genre-leading photographers
- Genre-leading fetishwear
- Subscription includes access to PDF of magazines |
| Cons: |
- Relatively slow updates
- Videos are short and BTS
- Some glitches, a few zip sets missing
- HD videos are streaming only; downloads are lower res
- High-res pictures are additional cost
- Regional pricing |
| Bottom Line: |
Been quite excited about joining this site ever since I first saw it... so much so that I half knew I was letting myself in for a fall.
What's good is the content - although I'd argue that Alt Exclusive is a bit of a misnomer; Alt makes me think of Suicide Girls, God's Girls, Joanna Angel etc - whereas this is more fetish/pinup, which is exactly what I like. I think Holly Randall hit on the best description for this kind of content with her Forever Vamp site - it's subtitled 'Ultra Glamour Fetish' which pretty much sums up what we have here.
Anyway, names aside, Alt Exclusive is a fairly new magazine, and the site features more, and more explicit, content than makes it into print. And somehow they've managed to get the best of everything in the genre - models like Mosh, Darenzia, Jade Vixen, Angela Ryan, Masuimi Max... and more. Similarly with photographers - new sets are shot by Viva Van Story following some great sets by Shannon Brooke and more. And all in and out of a great selection of retro lingerie, custom latex and nylon - even the plain background studio shots, which usually do little for me, look great in this context.
It's fairly new and there's not much content, about 70 sets of about 20 pictures each and 30 or so 3-5 minute videos - the latter being short and behind the scenes, but again in the context, this is what works. It's really great stuff, and fair at $15 (or a little more here in the UK, grrr!).
The problem arises from something a bit of a bait and switch when joining. We're promised zip downloads of sets, HD videos, downloadable videos and 3500px photos. Once a member, the videos stream at 720p, but download quite a bit smaller... this is annoying but actually not a big deal since with a download manager, you can easily grab the HD swf. Similarly, some zip sets are missing, but point a download manager at the page and it will grab all the pictures no problem.
The biggest one, though, is that zips are 1200px pictures. The promised 3500px versions are only available to buy, $1.99 each - each picture, not each set. I could be missing something, but nowhere is this stated in the tour and I didn't see any terms stating it. This is such a shame since photography this great really begs to be seen at high resolution.
So, as always seems to be the case with me, a difficult one to score. If the high-res pics were included, I'd score this 90 for the quality of content - regardless of the limited amount of it or other minor issues. If they'd made it clear that the high-res pics were an additional cost, I'd still probably give it 85 - I really enjoyed Stagg St, where the pics are only 1080, at the same price of $15. As it is, I think they are pretty cheeky... for which I feel it has to be less than 80, amazing though the girls look. |

To be honest, I'm new to this lark, so haven't actually subscribed anywhere yet - have just been checking out video samples etc but no call yet for download a complete set of pics. Sometime in the next few days I'll decide what my poison is and sign up to a couple of sites - will let you know how I get on with dTa, and hopefully put a review or two up!

Thanks for picking up on this - this is my kind of material, and although the no zips I could live with (hopefully the download manager would take care of that) the 2gig limit is harsh - especially with a 24hr ban when you reach it.
2gig is, what, 3 HD video clips?
Hope the webmaster is listening...

Agree with lk2fireone - although this isn't a site on my (increasingly long) shortlist, your review is hugely readable. And - at the risk of getting a slap for seeming patronising - some female input and perspective here is very welcome and appreciated! Hope to see more of your reviews...

Another wonder of naming subtlety... assuming of course, that it's not about young ladies who are very fastidious about their sex toys :|
I enjoy the naming and concept of the sites that crop up here (almost) as much as the content!
