That is some dedication to put all of that info up. I've run out of space before, but I haven't thought to use the comments to add more detail. I'll keep that in mind for next time. Thanks for the new idea.

Thanks for the update. I always thought that she had a nice body, but the charges for her site were high back then and now are just plain ridiculous. It's a non-nude site, for goodness sake.
I didn't know that she was pregnant. Not trying to sound mean, but I guess she realized how expensive her baby is going to be.

Wow, that's a lot of detail. Thanks for the info. I know that you said you couldn't tell a difference between the 2 low speed options, but could you tell a difference between the low speed and high speed?

Like you said, they are in the process of removing DRM from their site. How much content is working vs. not working right now?

It's a matter of value. If a site is charging more than my entire porn budget, but delivers some amazing content, then I would not consider it over-valued.
But, it's a Catch-22: for a site to charge that kind of money, it would need amazing content. Of course, amazing content isn't cheap, so a site might not have the initial budget to create (or buy) that content. Since it doesn't have great content, it couldn't justify charging a high price, etc., etc.
In the end, I probably wouldn't join any site that is priced above my porn budget, just for the fact that it is a budget and I'd have to take spending money from other areas to cover it.

I answered this poll question from the perspective of "do the scores typically match the reviews?" Like exotics, I am reticent to tell someone whether their opinion is right or wrong. However, if you are rating a site with a 95, it had better be a darn good site and you should be able to defend that score in your review. Conversely, if a site is so terrible that it scores in the 50's, you should be able to explain that, too.
I have found that the reviews are very useful and, for the most part, reflective of the point scores that the reviewer gave out. Like Jay, I also really appreciate the warnings for sites, especially the marginal sites that I'm not sure about joining.
Since there are so many different ways to intrepret it, I look forward to seeing more replies to this poll.

If I remember correctly, CD Girls has a similar search engine. It was really useful and very detailed.
I agree: all movie sites could use search features like this, particularly the amateur sites.

Good details. I would have considered it, given its relatively low price, until I saw that it is lacking in video content and is completely non-nude. Those two facts turned me off from this site completely.

I know what you mean! Can't stand trials unless they are full access. My only suggestion is to check the TBP or PU reviews first. I've saved myself the headache a couple of times that way.

I used to burn archive content, but like Boobs, I could never find what I had archived. Now, with hard drives being so cheap, I either buy a new drive or start deleting the marginal scenes that I kept.

Sorry to harp on this point, but a no-trust vote with a comment is less than optimal.
Not to make this too personal, but I received an anonymous no-trust vote with a comment that I had reviewed too many sites too quickly and that something was fishy with the fact that I could review 20 sites in 2 weeks.
This could be a fair criticism except for the fact that almost all of the sites that I have reviewed belong to the same network, a network which is not reviewed on TBP or PU (PervNetwork). I mentioned this in all of my reviews for the sites, so the person voting no-trust obviously did not read the actual reviews, but simply saw that I was a relative newcomer with a lot of reviews. This is reflective of the last point that I made in my earlier post: anonymous reviews like this can influence honest people to stop coming back to PornUsers or to stop contributing reviews, either of which kills the community. Is discouraging enthusiasm for this site really a good idea for helping it grow?
Furthermore, only allowing 150 characters to respond to those types of criticisms is too few. I couldn't respond fully to the anonymous comment by pointing out that, of the sites not in the network, most were reviewed after I stopped being a member, but within the 6 month window for reviews.
I don't think that the admins can or should moderate the trust comments. There are too many and trust is too personal. However, I think that it would be helpful for other users to know who was making uninformed trust comments because those comments reflect on the person who made them just as much as on the person who is being rated.
Not to put too fine a point on it but anonymity is great unless you can use that anonymity to destroy other people's reputations with impunity.

Honestly, this is the first time that it has happened to me. I'm usually very careful to check the TBP review about streaming vids or DRM, but there were no reviews, TBP or PU, for this site. I guess that someone had to be first and bite the bullet.

I just tried the trial and it appears that Red Light has not improved. Please see my recently added review.

pat362's Review
I just tried pat362's method and it worked in Firefox. You need to allow pop-ups before visiting the CCBill site.
Also, note that the $18.95 is only good for the first month. After that, it rebills at $29.95.

Yes, download managers work with VB. I use Internet Download Manager with no problems.

In my opinion, there shouldn't be any anonymous trust ratings.
First off, the trust ratings help to create community. You create trust networks where two people trust each other and find that they also trust people in common. Anonymous reviews prevent (or at least slow) that from happening.
Second, a no-trust vote with an explanation can lead to dialog, especially if it something that can be fixed. Plus, trust votes can be changed if the issue is addressed.
Third, a no-trust vote with no comment is really indicative of a lazy person. If they can't take the time to explain why they are bad-mouthing someone, they probably deserve a no-trust vote themselves. Even yes-trust votes should have a comment, if only so that the person being reviewed knows what they are doing well.
Finally, I feel that a number of reviewers have been hit with anonymous no trust votes with no comments and that has caused them to stop being active members of PU. That, too, is killing the community of users that is trying to survive here.
I agree with SnowDude: this is not an easy thing to administer. I guess you can tell that my choice would be to do away with anonymous trust ratings entirely.

Thanks for the info about the download size and speed. I don't subscribe to any sites with DRM, but it is something I should probably also mention in my reviews, too.

Monahan's Review
Monahan,
Thanks for the good review. I have a couple of questions:
- How long are the video scenes? Can you download the entire scene or only in parts?
- What kind of download speeds are you getting?
Thanks for your help.

Wow! 8+ TB. I can only imagine the electric bill and the amount of heat that all those drives generate! How many drives are you using to get that capacity? My PC only has room for 4 internal HDs and I've got just over 2TB (2x750GB and 2x320GB) in it.

I always need more space since I do video editing, but part of the reason that I am running out of space to begin with is my porn collecting. I've bought multiple hard drives (internal and external) plus lots of blank CDs and DVDs to try and manage my ever-growing collection.

No, I would just avoid sites that impose download limits. I think that charging more to avoid download limits is nickel-and-diming your customers and I don't care for it.
