I've been a member of this site for many years but am getting increasingly frustrated because Femjoy is not keeping up with the times when it comes to file sizes. The small and medium download sizes are microscopic by today's standards. Small files are 800x535 and medium files are 1200x800. That is about 1/5 and 1/2 of my monitor's screen resolution (1920x1080). I've complained about this before and thought I got a response that they were working on it. Apparently not. Now the LARGE files are 6000x4000 these days, which is fine, but those large zip files take a long time to download, are slow to load and use up to half a gig of disk space each. Please, please please!!! Change the file sizes so you have a 2000 or 3000 option like Met Art, Hegre Art, X-Art, W4B, MPL and the rest of the sites in your niche. The larger size is OK (although several other sites are at 10,000 now), but the site has to bump up the size of the smaller images.

Pros:
Good variety
Several niche sites
Many attractive models and porn stars
Video quality is generally good
Navigation generally good
Good search functions
Cons:
You get one update a day for ALL sites
Many sites have not been updated in YEARS!
"Premium" sites you are supposed to pay more for.
Bottom Line:
Have you ever noticed how on some web sites, there will be an article that looks interesting, so you click on it, only to find that the actual article has a slightly different name and you've read it before? That's how I've signed up to Team Skeet 2 or 3 times in the past couple of years...by not realizing I've been been here before..because that's what the webmasters want you to think. That sounds a little odd, I know, but the individual sites don't advertise as "Team Skeet". They advertise as one of the many sub-sites under the umbrella of "Paper Street Media". (Even PU doesn't immediately show this as a network...you have to go to a site and then look at the company profile to see the sites in the network.) Most recently, I got pulled in by "The Real Workout" which looks like a site full of fit models working out and then getting boned. The site is listed separately and gives no real indication it is part of the Skeet network. What it doesn't tell you on the teaser page is that you are looking at EVERY video on the site..73 videos in total SINCE 2007!!!! That's one video a month and some are tiny! I was duped. Consolation prize? Team Skeet and access to all of the same stuff I purchased as part of "Exxxtra Small", another sub-site, 2 months ago.
To be fair, it does look like they provide 1 new set a day these days, but I can't really tell. What I do see is 2088 sets TOTAL across all the sites and the earliest sets date to 2005. That is 4 sets a week for 10 years. Oh, and this is almost 100% video. There are no images of sets.
The quality of material is generally pretty good but it is mostly shot in little skits. Think classroom, dorm room, office, car, gym, etc. the solos are done in hotel rooms, mostly. As a result, the lighting is not always great, the settings are OK and the scenes are usually very real-world-ish. (Not necessarily what I'm personally looking for in a sex scene).
The names of the sub-sites are about as self-explanatory as can be. Titty Attack, Teen's Love Money, POV Life, Teen Curves, This Girl Sucks, Teens Love Anal, Teeny Black, Exxxtra Small, Innocent High, the list goes on and on...at one update a month per site for many of these sites. And I also notice that many of the videos could be on any of the sites, it's just the way the video is edited.
The models are generally 18-24-ish, good looking and professional. Many are porn stars or video starlets. The top rated girls are Riley Reid, Cassidy Banks, Lola Foxx and Kaylee Haze, all in sets dated 2014 or 2015.
Navigation is OK. You can see all updates or you can drill into a particular site and see what is there. You can search by model or keyword/tag and there is a list of tags down the left hand site of the main page.
There is a LOT of cross selling. the skeet live-models site take up the top of every page. Other sites are listed down the right side and along the bottom. That leaves about 50% of the main pages for listing things that are actually on the site you have paid for and are looking at.
Bottom line? I would classify this as similar to Porn Pros, Pornstar Network or maybe 18 girls. It is an all video site that is worth visiting once. But once you do visit, double check to make sure the next site you stumble over isn't just this book with a slightly different cover.
This may sound odd, but I like some of these scenes because they demonstrate the challenge for the guy. Think about it this way. If you are with two girls, it should be because they are thinking that you can get them both off better than they can get themselves off. Challenge accepted. What I don't like to see is the back story where two girls just decide to jump one guy as a gift or treat. And I don't want to see a guy screwing one girl while the other one just watches or plays with his balls or herself. Sex is about satisfaction and that includes the satisfaction you get from knowing that your partner is or partners are satisfied. So the guy needs to be the best fuck they've BOTH ever had. To me, the best scenes are those where the guy is on his back, there's a girl on his dick and a girl sitting on his face and climax is nearly simultaneous for all of them. If the girls have to face each other or finger each other because they are more into each other than him, he's failed.
Philosophical stuff aside, (this is shallow-acting porn, after all) I enjoy watching the 2 on 1 scenes, but the guy has to look like he's putting in a genuine effort to satisfy them both.
Sasha. She may have been ridden hard and put away wet, but she cleaned up really nice and actually found some real acting and spokesperson jobs. I'm guessing that taught her a little about how to do things other than fuck in front of the camera. One other thing. She is the only one here, I think, that is not enhanced.

About 320 models
1 new update a day
Some older sets are not exclusive
The site has been around since 2009 but some of the sets pre-date that.
The models are generally young and all shapes, sizes, ethnicity, hair color, some hairy, some tattoos, etc.
This site is, to a large extent, sort of an evolution of the "girl in the woods" theme with the idea that you are observing a model in a more natural environment instead of a studio environment. Often the idea is that the model doesn't really know you are there or doesn't pay much attention to you, the viewer. About 50% of the sets are solo girl in a straight modeling scenario. Many of these sets are of very, very attractive girls that are just standing or in other conservative poses. Another 40% are female masturbation sets that range from boring to pretty interesting. And the remaining 10% are girl/girl scenes. I need to say that the majority of these are very conservative sets with few money or close-up shots. (There are some Oh My God models, but they are not necessarily doing OMG things....) There are notable exceptions, though. It depends on the model, I guess. There also is a wide mix of eye contact. Some sets have models that never make any eye contact with the camera at all. Earlier sets are better, but the quality of those sets is not as good. Oh, most of the sets start out with the model(s) clothed. I noticed some models remained clothed for 75% or more of some sets.
The first thing that strikes me about this site is how dark it is. Everything is dark. The site, the sets, the lighting, the videos, EVERYTHING! Older sets are a little better in this regard, but you will generally think there is something wrong with your display. Newer images are dark, contrasty, very shadowy. Distracting. Annoying. Generally awful. I batched a couple of sets through Photoshop and auto-adjust increased the brightness in most images by 50% or more. That is a heck of a lot and it is not accidental. They are deliberately turning down the brightness on these sets. You have to work to make images this dark. Really work.
The second thing I noticed was how hard the webmasters are trying to get you to go to the live site. When you get to the landing page, you don't see a single girl on the site you are paying for. instead you get a full page of images from the two live-cam sites that seem to be taking over the Met-Art network. You have to scroll down to see the contents of the site you already paid for. The webmasters are apparently experimenting with where best to put these live-cam ads as they can be found in different places on the various Met-Art sites. This is the most intrusive placement, right at the top of the main page and present on every page on the site. Stop it! Really. Just stop.
Another thing is the almost complete lack of playfulness, compassion or interaction with the viewer in many of the sets. Some of these models have all of the expressions of a check-out girl at K-Mart, meaning none. Even models that normally shine are somehow less expressive here. This is not in any way erotic as the name implies.
And the last thing to note is how inconsistent many of the sets are. More recent sets seem to follow that dark theme for the most part, but some sets are not like that at all. Some sets are very short, some are filled with close-ups, some are not. Some girls are almost entirely fully clothed for the whole set, some are not clothed at all. Some have eye-contact, many do not. You can tell if you are familiar with other Met-Art sets that some of these sets seem like they might have been B-roll or too weird to put on Met-Art. For example, there is an outdoor set of Lorena, beautiful Met-Art regular, where she is entirely covered in red mud in every single image. Really? Has to be a B-roll.
Navigation is generally good. There is an options section that allows you to set defaults for image size, number of thumbnails on a page, etc. like some other Met Art sites. The search function has user defined tags, which helps if you are looking for a particular trait that others are likely to define, like ginger or spread. But it could be better.
Bottom line? Good site to visit once, I guess. I personally don't like it anywhere near as much as other Met Art sites like Met-Art itself or Errotica Archives. You can actually see the weird evolution/devolution from a site similar to Met Art in the beginning to a site that now looks more like a bad graphic novel than a soft-core porn site. There is a decent amount of material here and some of it is pretty good, but be prepared to sift through a lot of dark, odd and often slightly off pictures to find things that really float your boat.
I wish I could be more enthusiastic, but this site just doesn't live up to Met-Art standards.
I think this may be a case of different strokes for different folks, but I do get pretty disappointed when I see a really beautiful, pristine model with a new, blatantly obvious tattoo. Example: Melena Morgan pre-tattoos? Awesomely beautiful. Malena Morgan with tattoos? Either clearly branded as a porn star or spending a lot of time on the softer sites covering them up.
A lot of these girls don't realize that they are their own canvas. It is what makes them so amazing. The minute they agree to be somebody else's canvas, it takes some, sometimes ALL, of that amazing away. Or maybe to put it more directly...when have you ever heard anyone say "That girl was hot before but that new tattoo makes her look even better!" Yup....never.
I find that the TBP reviews are a little too positive sometimes, but there are often very well written PU reviews. In the end, you have to take a leap of faith no matter how good the reviews and previews are, but it helps a lot to have both professional and PU reviews.
The Better Business Bureau and Yelp have both been proven to accept payment for a higher score. I don't really think that happens in porn site reviews....yet. A site can plant a positive user review (which you can usually see through), but for the most part, I like how honest the user reviews are.
It depends entirely on the scene and the purpose of the video. POV scenes, for example, often don't have much of a set up but sometimes, like in a few of the W4B videos, the set up adds a lot to the scene. So I had to answer "other".
Many of you remember Savannah. Those who don't should look her up. She was an amazing porn star that committed suicide in 1994. Would it not make sense to remove her images? I had a lot of pictures of her but the thought that she blew her brains out made them considerably less appealing.
In other cases, some models request to have their images removed after they retire and move on. Marketa Belonoha is probably the best example of a spectacular model who has moved out of nude modeling and has asked the sites that showcased her to take down her images. Many sites honored that request but many did not. (She had a micro-site called Marketa4U.com in the Watch4Beauty network but took that down.) These day's you can't hide your past, but I think it is respectable to try to hide it from your kids until they are old enough to understand. Cases like these are reasonable when it comes to taking models off sites. (Marketa was one of my all-time favorite models, so I already have nearly every image ever shot of her.)
Other good reasons for pulling models include that they were minors when the shoot occurred or that the model release or image sale to that particular web site was disputed/pirated. Occasionally, when a site is sold, there are disputes about who actually owns the rights to the images (i.e. the site or a past partner in the site). That happens remarkably often and the safest thing is for the sites to remove the disputed images.
All that said, I do not think that old shoots should be arbitrarily pulled unless the quality is so bad the images or models degrade the impression of a web site. I just went back and looked at some Penthouse stuff shot in the mid-90's. Great stuff, but the images are 600x400 MAX so they have been remanded to the deep archives. What do you do with that stuff? If the originals can't be re-scanned, then I have a hard time blaming the sites for removing them.
The good news is that there is a shitload of great, new, high-resolution stuff out there and in terms of disk space it is pretty much doubling every year. We all like our old favorites, but there is a new girl somewhere getting naked for us every day!
Funny thing. I think we all trust CCBill and Epoch because we have used them so much and know what to do when it comes to cross-listings and cancellations, everyone's biggest gripes. CCBill and Epoch have their own sites where you can find your subscriptions and cancel them without having to go through the web site you signed up with. Most of the other billers exist because a) they undercut the above two with lower fees to the web site, b) the web sites don't want to make it too easy for you to cancel, or c) it is the web site's own billing system, so both. Using that logic, I always have to think twice before signing up with a different biller.
I have been screwed out of a couple of hundred bucks by websites/billers that have no clear cancel process, that require you to PHONE them several days in advance to cancel, or that cross list and don't send you any kind of email that you have subscribed to something other than what you intended. CCBIll and Epoch don't do that. (And no matter how careful you are, some sites manipulate their pages in an effort to trick you into a cross-listing. The most common is the "oh, you got that wrong" trick where they show you an entry error, but FAIL to highlight that the cross-listings have quietly been rechecked.) With CCBill and Epoch, you can point this out to them immediately when you sign up and they will reverse it or you can at least see the extra subscription on the biller's site and cancel it before you are charged the big monthly fee. Good luck with other billers.
A simple analogy is that when I buy something on eBay, I expect to be able to pay for it with Paypal. If an eBay seller doesn't use Paypal, I really have to wonder why. As an eBay seller, I use Paypal to ensure that people know they can pay for it easily and that they get all the buyer guarantees that come with it. CCBill and Epoch are the Paypal of porn. Most webmasters who don't use CCBill or Epoch are at the very least, being cheap and at worst, trying to get an extra month's subscription or perhaps a cross-listing fee out of you by making it harder to cancel.
All that said, if a new biller sends me an email with my sign-up information when I sign up and has a separate site that allows me to cancel easily, I will gladly use it. I just can't think of a good one other than the CCBill or Epoch.
I have a large house with 6 wireless access points and 3 SSIDs including a guest network for my kids friends to use. It is all tied to gigabit Ethernet run into most rooms (I still prefer wired connections when possible). I have a dedicated Windows server for audio, video and Tivo file storage (about 16 Terabytes now)in an A/V closet that includes whole-house audio and a managed Cisco gigabit switch with POE. I just checked and there are 28 DHCP lease connections including A/V components (stereos, Blu-ray players, TVs and 3 Tivos), 4 game consoles, 4 iPhones, 3 iPads, a Nook and 7 computers....all connected through a Docsis 3 router to one really shitty Comcast cable connection. I guess that would make me a computer nerd. When I load Net-stumbler onto one of my laptops, I can see 18 different wireless networks from my bedroom and I live on a pretty big piece of land. Apparently, I am surrounded by nerds, too. If you live in an apartment, grab a copy of net-stumbler so you can identify the least used wireless channels and reduce interference from your neighbors.
Free sites provide an opportunity to see new things that you would not ordinarily see in your proverbial back yard. The new higher end sites like Watch 4 Beauty post on the free sites and draw a lot of customers that way. Now days the POV sites are the big deal. I will also sometimes scan free sites for interesting models, then go to one of the porn wiki sites to find out where the model is. Found some interesting sites that way.
A few of my favorite models are total stunners but have tiny scars in one place or another (i.e. leg or knee). By looking for and finding the scars, I can tell whether the images are PhotoShopped. Same with moles. No moles at all? Probably shopped.
Wow. Porn destroys a lot of beautiful women but some are just amazing for a decade or more. This may also depend on the intensity of the activity. Some exceptional European photo models are still going strong after 10+ years, but they just do photos and solo videos. Personality has so much to do with it. Smart, interesting ones that control their careers can go the distance.
Hey RustyJ, I think you hit the nail on the head with the feel in House of Taboo. It is glam bondage. There is a lot of make-up and nice fetish clothing but no real roughness at all. (Straight peeing should not be in this category these days.) But here's the deal. Even with light bondage, the model needs to be tied up well or tied firmly to something. Bondage is about trust, after all and faking bondage destroys the trust concept. When I look at the images here, many, many of them show a girl in handcuffs that aren't clasped or a girl tied in a way that she can clearly slip her hands or legs out of. And seeing a girl that is tied up suddenly slip free and masturbate SO defeats the purpose of the set. Yes, Kink.com is pretty brutal and the models are usually not glamorous, but there are other sites that strike a MUCH better balance between fake glam and "OMG she's tied down tight to that machine and has come so many times she's drooling uncontrollably" bondage. I'm not a huge Hustler fan, but the Hustler Taboo site does glam bondage pretty well. Check it out if you haven't already.
