Very rarely will I stay for longer than a month, but I have had a couple of subscriptions for longer. This is either before I started downloading stuff, or more recently when there is tons of content, or very frequent updates.

I don't feel guilty about the porn I watch, or watching porn, but I sometimes feel guilty about the amount of time i spend watching it...

Yes, I suppose as the vast majority are in it for the money, when their "product" becomes less marketable, i.e. older, that's when they'd start to be concerned I suppose.

Thanks for another excellent review! I can't believe the struggle you went through to try and get a refund.. you clearly have patience.
It's a real shame about the streaming only videos because the site itself looks like it has a great mix of niches and types of guys, but thanks for the warning. Think I'll steer clear... but it's interesting how you managed to get the price down, mainly by chance however. I've come across a few sites that once you've gone to the sign up page and closed the window, a pop-up appears offering you a discount. I generally always try this tack before I subscribe to a site!

I agree with Pat. A combination of quality and quantity of content and frequency of updates. If the content is good, but updates aren't that frequent, I'll probably rejoin some months down the line.

What's "cow tipping"? Not a phrase I've ever heard here in the UK....

Man Avenue

72.0

| Status: |
Current Member for less than 1 month (at the time of review).
|
| Pros: |
+Good production values
+Reasonably frequent updates
+Increasing number of HD quality videos
+Around 300 exclusive videos |
| Cons: |
- Navigation very basic
-No model search index
-Photo sets not downloadable as zip files
-The bulk of the photo sets are taken from the video shoot
-No bonus material |
| Bottom Line: |
Man Avenue is what I'd call your bog-standard, bread and butter "entry level" gay porn site.
It focusses mainly on solo videos. Not a problem for me, as that's what I'm into.
The videos are shot with excellent production values, another "glossy" site of mainly muscular/athletic guys. The producers have, however, chosen to add cheesy music (think Richard Clayderman) to a lot of the solo videos. Now, I think I'm broadminded, but I don't know anyone who finds Richard Clayderman sexy...
There are a few duo videos, but that's as hardcore as it gets...
Updates happen about once a week and videos are around the 15 minute mark.
The newer videos are all shot in HD. I'd say that accounts for about a quarter of them. All are available in WMV, m4v and quicktime, and all are also downloadable to iPhone.
There are only one or two stand alone photo galleries, the vast majority being photos of the video shoots And yet again, photosets can't be downloaded as a zip file. There isn't any slideshow function either, so each photo has to be opened individually. Annoying.
The navigation is poor. All videos are posted in date order and there's no search function. Even worse is that there are several videos of the same guy, but there's no link to their other shoots, so you have to trawl through the 300 odd videos to find what you want.
All are fully downloadable and download speeds seem ok.
The site also lacks bonus material. For $24.95 you'd expect a little more material. There is a blog, but the videos shot in the blog also appear on the main site, so it appears a bit of a cop out. It would be also good to have the facility to comment on the videos.
Billing seems reasonably secure by CCBill or Epoch.
All in all this is a pretty average site. Some nice looking guys, some good photography, but for the price you'd be better off with something like Randy Blue, Blake Mason or English Lads, which are far more interactive, have a bigger back catalogue and seem to update more frequently. |

It's my personal opinion, of course, but I think it's a bit more creative and original in terms of different gay niches, scenarios etc. I don't know whether the Brits are a particularly more creative bunch in general....

In terms of gay porn, I think the UK has the edge - although I'm bound to be biased. Seems to have more original sites, like Straight Hell, Rate These Guys and some harder sites, although "Britporn" is unfortunately now starting to become polished, like the US sites.
For rawness and amateur appeal, and just pure sex I think the Eastern Europeans have the edge..

feraltom's Review
I reviewed this a few months ago, and must admit I was disappointed. Very infrequent updates, and it didn't really seem to live up to its title of "public" hardcore. I've noticed there haven't been too many updates since I left the sire probably about 4 or 5 months ago. But interesting to see a different perspective.
It would be great if you wrote some more, lengthy reviews of gay sites, as there's a lack of gay reviewers here...

I also couldn't vote, as it was some time in the early to mid Eighties.

For those who may be interested, there's also a gay version called "Buttmachine men" I think....

I ticked the $50 option, then, looking at the replies, I realised I have signed up for 3 month subscription periods in the past....

Great to read your take on this site too. I really don't understand why people would go to other webcam sites and pay a premium as there are some really hot people on here, and it generally has quite a friendly feel.

And double anal in gay porn? That doesn't really do it for me, besides the fact that it can often end up like a game of twister gone wrong....
