Not for sure if others receive promos from ZTOD and their sister studios 3rd Movies or Black Ice Pass, but the latest one I received made me think Black Ice was going to start updating again. I could be reaching a little when I say I'm wondering if they're releasing Black Ice style DVDs on ZTOD since Black Ice Pass itself is dead? I know in my last review of ZTOD, I mentioned how the search engine was seemingly becoming for all 3 of their studios, instead of having to go to each studio's site to find specific models for each site. Either way, the ZTOD join is just as good as the last time I reviewed it. With the various problems on Videobox and the continued high production quality on ZTOD's DVDs, I would bump ZTOD ahead by just a little bit, maybe 1-2 points. Once my membership is up and I have a chance to see if they are updating Black Ice ethnic girl style DVDs on ZTOD, I will either write a new review for ZTOD or will post a comment.
Jayne, sort of good news, sort of bad news. The good news, you're probably right about the reading problem. The bad news, I also think it's a bit of a wording problem. The part that says, "Join any of my friends sites" is where the confusion is coming in. I didn't have many people to check it out, but had 2, both at first glance also thought they would receive 8 free sites with rachel reveals. So in the end, I don't think you're running a dishonest site, I just think there is a bit of a communication problem. If I knew a way to word it any better, I would be happy to share, but it's probably worded well enough, just people don't read as carefully these days as they used to.
Jayne, I can't say if he's lying on the quantity of pictures or not, but the site does clearly say "Join ANY of my Friends sites listed above and get FULL Access to ALL 8 websites". It says that twice before it finally adds "Join ANY of my Friends sites listed above and get FULL Access to ALL 8 websites - Does not include access to my site, www.rachelreveals.co.uk".
If you want some helpful advice, just to be safe, I would add, "These sites do not come with Rachel Reveals". I've joined over 200 sites in my time as a member here and I'll be honest with you, at first glance, the wording fooled me into believing those sites were included with Rachel Reveals, but I wouldn't get Rachel Reveals if I joined through one of the friends sites. I don't think he was lying on expecting to get the bonus sites. It's a simple mistake of not understanding the wording. Keeping in mind, a good portion of the members visiting your site are not native English speakers. Just trying to help out so you don't run into these problems again.
The filesizes these days are getting out of hand. I usually consider the 700-800 MB to be ideal for downloading, but only because the other options range from 1.5 GB to 2.5 GB. I think most of us here are starting to set "too big" limits on files. Even with a new 3 TB external, I still try to keep the scenes under 1 GB when choosing which to download.

Pros:
- The last of the Kink sites on my list to join, Kink's sites, generally speaking are very high quality and are just different enough from the norm to keep most of us from getting bored.
- It's a site about butts, my favorite part of the female, below the neck and they have some of the best butts in porn on here.
- As usual, Kink will do something in at least one or sometimes 20 scenes, that challenges our morality as viewers. I call it pro since I feel like this is done in a safe, controlled, consensual environment and it works to break our boredom with traditional porn, push our limits, etc..
- You get good download speeds here.
- Navigation is as all other Kink sites. I think it's a bit clunky, but if you join enough Kink sites, you start to get the hang of it or you just speed up your mouse scroll wheel.
- Videos have up to 1280x720 resolution and are nice and clear. If a bit dark thanks to setting.
- One update per week is a borderline pro/con.
Cons:
- As mentioned in pros, Kink will push your boundaries, they do so on this site with enemas, for me.
- Pictures would have been really good for this site since they could showcase the butts/thighs, and they have them, but I'm nearing Kink burnout on downloading 4-6 zips to get one photoset.
- Maybe more than any of the Kink sites, this one seemed to border on formulaic for me. It could be the Kink burnout, it could just be that most scenes seemed like the same thing. Reminds me a lot of the now dead Give Me Pink site and to a lesser extent, In the Crack.
Bottom Line:
I had found myself in a porn rut a few months ago and decided to start trying these Kink sites in succession. I can't recommend a studio higher than Kink when it comes to pushing boundaries...tastefully. I know there are sites that are more hardcore than these, but I don't know if any focus so much on the model as these. Many rely on the male to make the scenes more violent. Kink does seem to let the models work at their own pace.
The quality is here is like any of the new(er) Kink sites. The videos have the 1280x720 option, there is also a 720x480 option, these come in either WMV or MP4 depending on your choosing. I don't want to go too deep into the pictures, but will say this, if you're a picture fan, you most likely won't be happy. Since I've written multiple reviews on Kink sites, I don't want to waste a lot of space on saying the same things I have before. Plain and simple, you can download 20-25 pictures in a zip, 4-6 of these zips per set, just like it was in 1999 or 2000. I downloaded a total of 8 total photo sets, so they're bordering on "why even post them?" I took points off ATK and other sites, over 4 years ago, for doing it. It's unacceptable in almost 2013.
The scenes themselves should be a big selling point to me. I like butts, thighs, and not just curvy, but any that are not toothpick thin or to the point of cottage cheese nightmares. Everything in between those are good.
My first problem was expected. Enemas are just a flat-out no to me. I remember years ago on here, both Denner and I, talking about Give Me Pink having girls shoot milk out of their butt. That was the line this site crossed for me. I still don't like gape videos that much either. There's plenty of gape here. So much in fact, I think a small nation could find their new home. Neither of these are huge complaints, but I am trying to show the extreme the site goes to, for those considering it as a possible join. You sometimes get the feeling the women are in a dare contest, "I can get a stick, a pool cue and a bat in my butt".
This is simply a problem for me because I like the butt. The curves of it. The silhouette of it a shadow. If you're into the extreme insertions and projectile shooting, you will like this site. Nothing wrong with it if you do. That part just isn't for me.
The good part, they do have the less extreme sets. You get a lot of good lesbian strap-on action and I've never had a problem with women being rough with women. I find it erotic even. The models here are more to my liking than some of the Kink sites. You will see a lot more curvy models here than they typically have.
The site has a pretty good sized collection. I'm counting 217 scenes as of 12/11/12. While this a good-sized collection for unique content like this site has, when I figure in the sets I wasn't even considering, it goes down quite a bit and was what caused me to lower the score some. I typed these out in notepad as I was looking through the site for sets I was interested in.
My counts could be off 1-2.
At least 42 scenes involved enemas.
At least 12-15 more involved instruments that are either gynecological, or look gynecological.
So roughly 1/4 of the scenes didn't appeal to me right from the start. If those scenes would appeal to you, then add another 5 points to the score. I found my boundary there.
The rest of it, to the dismay of some, the delight of others, is more straightforward, rough anal sex, be it with a woman or man or group. There's fisting, there's lesbianism, and I mostly enjoyed these scenes. I'm on the indifferent boat when it comes to fisting.
What it adds up to, if the pictures were easy to download in one zip and the enema/gynecological scenes aren't counted, the site would have scored 94 for me, but because it only updates once a week, there's no telling if 3 of my 4 monthly updates will be in the don't appeal or appeal group, so I can't just say "look over" those scenes.
The models save it for me. The regular Kink girls are around, Isis Love, Skin Diamond, Vicki Chase, would love to see more Kelly Divine and Francesca Le. It leaves me feeling the same way as i have about the other Kink sites. By the 30th day of my membership, I'm usually thinking "time to move on to another niche". It definitely teeters on repetitive, but I don't think that would sit in for those who only join for a month at a time. Way too many puns in this.
I would recommend it most for fans of In the Crack and Give Me Pink. The one big difference, both of those sites excel or excelled in Give Me Pink's case, at high quality photos too. Some of this action is better watched in a still photograph than in real-time movement.
It definitely is good for breaking the monotony of mainstream porn. I would recommend it to most people. One other note is the ass-worship, I do like these and first saw this type of porn on Evil Angel, so if you're a fan of those there is something here for you too.
I have an interesting take on smoking. I have one huge fear in life. Being burned. Never would touch a cigarette because of it. Nearly everyone in my life jokes about me not being able to light a traditional flick lighter. If I'm cooking out, I have to use one of those long, press the button, lighters to start the fire or I strike a match, throw it in and am halfway across the yard by the time the fire starts. My mom says it dates back to when I was a kid. It seems I put my hand along the stove/counter and put it on a redhot stove eye.
Though I can't claim complete tobacco-free lifestyle. As a former baseball, football player and someone who worked on farms since I was 13-14, I have used smokeless tobacco and still will occasionally. On the other side of it, I've never liked alcohol too much. I always had access to fresh, clean, well-water and water is the only thing I drink outside of the occasional Root Beer or Coke.
I do think the site is more worthwhile than the vast majority of sites these days, but what you were seeing was the webmaster catering to his own fetishes. This is where the repetition comes in. He's not near as bad now about it though. I had never seen a promo from them until that one on another site. There are a lot of ifs with the site. If the navigation was better, it would probably be easier to find the sets that would interest us, but we're in a long, losing battle with stubborn webmasters on that part.
I'm not for sure on that one. But it's the point I was making. If he's going to just have one update per week, what does it hurt him to post the high superpics of every set instead of the 1600 high end ones? Would it really hurt his profits to offer past members a slightly lower price knowing he only updates once per week and there wouldn't be much new for them to download? As it is, I'm bumping it back to joining maybe once every two years. I do know the webmaster can be a jerk. If you haven't seen that look up how he talked about Eufrat and complained about her "poor English" knowing good and well when he hired her she wasn't a native English speaker. He went as far as leasing that set to other sites and went on a rant about how he would never hire another Euro model, seems like he called them "fake, plastic, robotic". His comments on Danni Yeager's sets were also bad. He blames the models when the sets don't go how he thinks they should go.
A big part of my overall liking of a model comes from either pure confidence in herself or pure innocence. These newer models seem to have neither. I think they may be trying to cut back on costs by hiring the truest amateur models, right off of college campuses. Most of the girls are cute at least, but their personalities are poor once on camera. They set such a high standard in those earlier years and I do think that is the biggest problem they have now. If they were a new site, say just for the last 2 years, I would probably be talking about how daring and risky their sets are. Compared to their past work though, it seems like they are just going through the motions.
I do think they are doing quite a bit of public stuff still. It maybe isn't as blatant, like the Paola Rey ones were, but it seems like nearly every model now has at least one outdoors/public video. They are going with a lot of more athletic ones with the athletic girls exercising in parks, flash here, flash there, some will just take their clothes off and keep exercising. Those really appealed to me, but a lot of times the model herself didn't. In your case, I would still recommend it. Seems like I remember you saying you didn't have Cayton Caley's "garage" set, if I lost that, I would rejoin just to get that one set. If you do, she is listed as Candice.
I agree about the hidden gems. I remember when I downloaded one model, not realizing it was the eventual hardcore model Tiffany Taylor. Think her name was Celeste on FTV. My favorite model on FTV though has always been Melia or something like that, very old set, Hawaiian girl, who flashes while pumping gas and has her first squirt while masturbating. I don't think she has any other model work except the sets on there and the innocence of her squirting set really was impressive. She looks not only shocked when she does squirt, but almost embarrassed, maybe even a little scared. I gave up on their lesbian scenes. I like harder lesbian scenes like Viv Thomas and the Euro sites have. I do still remember Georgia's sets though. She is a longtime favorite.
*Edit* Just noticed ftvgirlsonline.com has a separate listing here on TBP/PU. This is the same site and the price is $29.95, not the $24.95 listed. Looks strange that the site isn't listed as owned by the same company as FTV. I'm pretty sure it's just a mobile/tablet version of the site.
I joined FTV through a promo ad on Twistys, I think it was Twistys. Instead of sending me to ftvgirls.com where the regular site is, it sent me to ftvgirlsonline.com. The content was all the same, but the site did seem faster and less clunky, but I don't know if this is like a FTV new version that they are testing out or if it's just their own clone of their site. I'm holding out hope that it's a new version and they are going to work more on the navigation and download issues.

Pros:
- A long-running site that is a good place to start as a porn collector.
- 1920x1080 on the videos over the last 3 years
- Pictures come zipped
- Weekly update could be considered a con
- They do continuously get amateur models in their first or at least close to their first shoots
- Good download speeds, around 90% of my max download speed.
Cons:
- My biggest gripe is with the pictures. I never understood the purpose of having a "superpic" section where the webmaster decides to put 3000 high end and 4000 high end zips for his favorite sets. These are not that often and the vast majority of sets are only 1600 high end.
- Has been in a slow decline, could be because I've joined it once or twice a year, will further in BL.
- That one weekly update just isn't enough and will further this as well.
- No real reason to complain about it since they do separate the videos into parts based on the action, but it's becoming a con to me not to be able to download full scenes.
Bottom Line:
FTV has had its really strong years. If you've never joined the site would score higher than I'm scoring it, but I just can't give it a higher score based on my most recent join.
I'll start by saying I had everything I wanted from the site up until March 2011's updates. I have always liked their style of photography and most of the videos as well and have kept those on an external. I probably wouldn't have rejoined if not for a promo that dropped the price nearly in half. Even then, as a returning member, I'm not for sure I feel like I got my money's worth. For this whole membership, I downloaded and will keep:
14 models, videos and pictures.
I'm sure the everyone has different tastes rule applies here, but only 14 models appealing to me out of 70-75 since my last membership just isn't good, at least not for me. In comparison, I have over 200 FTV models, so you can see how it has declined for me. I would normally find 30-40 per year I liked, this time it was 14 in 20 months.
It's possible it could be more than just the model's not appealing to me. The scenes, similar to how they have always been, have several videos for each model being more playful and acting silly than being nude. Maybe I'm just getting older and find those more irritating than cute? So you can decide on that one. If you like that style of porn you can disregard my negativity towards it.
The picture size is a no longer an excuse situation. Saying we're going to post 3000 or 4000 high end resolution photos on our (FTV) favorite sets and make the other 90% or higher only 1600 high end is unacceptable to me. You're catering to members not your own taste or maybe I'm wrong on that.
What this equals for me is a site that isn't appealing to me with as many models. Then you just get one update per week with a 1/5 chance I'm going to even like that model, only 4 updates per month, so my 1/5 chance isn't looking so good. A premium price if you join it without a promo, only to find out you only get the highest resolution photos for the sets they pick to do those high resolution ones on. Videos broken up into parts and the scroll like mad navigation, all of which are minor problems by themselves, but when added together make for a big problem. Something has to give. Either the price goes down or more updates or added or you give full scene downloads or you give 3000x4000 resolution pictures on all sets. Or be daring, give them all for the premium price and I won't bitch about the price.
Having said all this, I won't throw FTV completely under the bus, so to speak. They have their strengths. You will see pornstars you know of, but most of their sets were shot early in the model's career. You do get to see a different side of the models than on nearly all other sites. And when they do it, you get some of the best exhibitionism content available. If you've never joined it, I would give it one of my highest recommendations for a first time membership. You also will see some models you've never seen before and probably won't see them ever again. The video quality is as crystal clear in 1920x1080 as any 1080p porn videos I've seen. I think that just hurts the lower resolution photos since it's obvious they have the ability to shoot extremely high quality video. And the superpics section ends up becoming more of a poke from them to say, "we could be giving you these resolution photos on every set". May not be their intentions, but it sure seems that way.
I also don't care for the girl/girl content which has become more common. This just goes into a whole feeling of, there are lesbian sex sites out there that do it better. I didn't list this in cons though since it's no worse than having a pretty girl do cartwheels for 5 minutes. I do get the feeling and have had the feeling before that as a member, you're going to get content based on what the webmaster likes or has fetishes for and still feel that way. I would like to see more variation in the models too. There has never been a maximum age limit on the models and they used to shoot more mid to late 20s models. It now seems like a purely teen site in the newer updates.
As I'm leading to recommending it, there has to be some stipulations added here. If you've never been a member or have only been a member once or twice, it's still a definite join and recommendation. If you're like me and have the majority of the archive and are only missing the last year or so, look at the previews and decide if enough of the models would appeal to you. I should have, but I was shocked to find a promo through, I think Twistys, that I just jumped on the deal before checking out the newer updates. I'm running out of room, but will add a comment about what seems to be a slightly different version of their site, not for sure if it's a mobile version or if it's a new format since the promo I used sent me to it instead of the regular site.
I'm a night person in everything I do. My body hasn't adjusted fully to the time zone switch. What is 11 AM here was 8 AM where I grew up. I'm usually up and awake and working by 1 PM here, so I picked night.
I had meant to get back to this since you mentioned standalone site. Did you ever get the bonus sites with Fucked Hard 18? When I was a member, there was a link to bonus sites, but all that was on it were a bunch of links with no descriptions of what I was downloading.
If nothing else, I think Fucked Hard 18 could alter their shooting style some. Maybe make the talk/stripping a little longer and add some kind of storyline/dialogue. I just think overall they are too sterile with the scenes. I have this image of someone holding up a placard that says, "2 more minutes of doggystyle!"
Hey RA, I laughed a little when I read this reply since the main reason I hadn't joined Everything Butt was the more extreme samples I had seen! Everything Butt would be a natural join for me since it's my favorite part of the woman, but I saw one or two that went into prolapse and I shuffled it to the back of my list of sites to join. Agree on the Molly and Steve scene and Samia. One that I liked a lot but can't think of who is in it was in a tattoo parlor. I thought that one was pulled off really well. I went ahead and let my membership recur since I do think I'm going to download every scene from it. I may have went a little low on my score since it's rare for me to download and keep every scene from a site.
You would think as much as people like the public nude sites there would be more. I guess the rules and laws make it a lot harder though than just throwing together a paint by numbers porn scene.
Hey RB, thanks, the site might appeal to you since I know from past reviews and discussions you like the kinky side some. I sometimes go off into the more out there sites and I am still a member on it, going on my second month since I didn't get to download everything I wanted. And a big plus in my book, I haven't deleted any scene I downloaded and watched. Seems like a site that fits the quality of quantity heading.
As I had joked about with others on here. I'm not for sure I like paying for the enjoyment of sex. I'm mainly saying, what I saw on the site isn't any different than the sex I have in life. I still think they will succeed with the site in the long run. On the boy/girl ones, my main complaint was on videos. I prefer the female only photosets.
As Pink Panther mentioned, Evil Angel has an original movie/series that would cover more what you're looking for. I enjoyed it and it may have even hurt my view of Kamikaze Love.
Was a member approx. 2 months prior to this review.
Pros:
- Female domination of men. I don't know if it always includes the extra site, but when I joined it included Men in Pain.
- Unlike the last Kink site I reviewed (Public Disgrace), Divine Bitches and the added Men in Pain, combine for a very large collection. Large collection does have downfalls, will explain in BL.
- Divine Bitches has the full options on videos with HD being offered on close to 90% of all videos.
- I'm only putting pictures here because they do have them. The quality of them and how they are downloaded are cons.
- There seems to be varying degrees of femdom that this site showcases. Some of it is particularly interesting to me as someone with a past in psychology, other parts will turn a lot off, though I wasn't bothered by any of it. Will explain in BL.
- I like how Kink uses models who are mostly unknown or better yet, more exclusive to their sites, but as with anything it can be repetitive.
- Weekly update on Divine Bitches, no updates on Men in Pain.
Cons:
- I'll start with the main one. I knew going in that there was cuckold scenes. If you are offended by gay acts, you probably shouldn't join this site. I will further this in BL.
- The pictures are downloadable only in part zips. The quality of them is only 1280x720.
- This was talked about in my comment for this site in the replies, these men who the women are dominating, are mostly effeminate. It does take away most of the believability.
Bottom Line:
This was probably the most far-reaching porn experience for me. I have talked about my interest in the lighter side of cuckold. This is seen most in the DVDs like "Please Screw My Wife". With a long interest in the power/control aspects of sex, this genre at least interested me. I don't want this to turn into a lecture on psychological theory, but I'm on the side of humans who believes sex is most enjoyed when it's more lust than love. I also buy into the belief that there's a very thin line between love and hate, anger and joy and each of these represents a very strong emotion.
Men in Pain is a bonus site, but I'm guessing by looking at the update dates, Divine Bitches just became Men in Pain v.2. The Men in Pain site is mostly scenes with typical physical control games being played by the women. This site wouldn't interest me very much, but it is a nice bonus since you will see some more mainstream female models being very aggressive, which is rare for them. One that comes to mind is Jasmine Byrne. I always saw her as the pretty, little glamor model who went into submissive hardcore porn. Also can get some older scenes of Isis Love back when she was blonde and pre-implants. Outside of that though, Men in Pain, is of very little interest. I'm not exactly in position to fantasize about a small woman dominating me physically. I can see that now. Jasmine slapping me if she could reach my face, me saying, "aww that's cute". Sorry for the humor.
Divine Bitches is a whole other experience. This goes into mental and emotional pain. It has plenty of physical pain too, but it isn't limited to it. What you end up getting are scenes like this, woman tells her best female friend about her jerk husband. Female friend finds a big, tough guy and they go over to the woman's house. They force the husband to watch as his wife has sex with the other man.
Then they took it to a new level. Not only is the husband being forced to watch his wife have sex with another man, he's being forced to stick his face within inches of the penetration. His wife is saying things like compliments to the new man on his size and how her husband doesn't compare. We're getting deep here.
Then they took it to a new level. Not only is the man facing all the things in the above paragraph, but he's having to take the cumshot from the other man, giving the other man oral, in between pumps of his wife. This was a line to me.
It wasn't a line because it went too far. It became more obvious at that last level, the men being forced were bisexual or gay. I'm in no way trying to be an asshole about this, but the husband walks in the scene in a dress suit and tie. He has a masculine look. Then as soon as it comes time for him to do something labeled as "gay" he arches his back and becomes feminine. You lose me there.
This also applies to the scenes with just a male and female. Some of these men look to be lubing themselves up for a strap-on from their woman. Whether this goes into a gay act or not isn't the point. The point is it's about domination! The willing being dominated is not domination. Simple as that.
Overall, the site is good. The storylines are believable and even enjoyable in a distorted way. Like with other Kink sites, I do think you have to bring your imagination with you because of the fine line between what would be accepted and what would be going to far. For example, would having a real husband and wife in a scene, with the real straight male being forced to give a man a blowjob, be going into breaking laws? Keep the imagination handy and if you do, it's a good, very different site that might touch some emotions in you. And I'll give them a lot of credit for being risky and pushing boundaries, even if my imagination is still required.
The quality on the videos is pretty simple. Everything on Divine Bitches has up to HD except maybe 10 scenes. Each scene has smaller versions as well. With Men in Pain, you're going to be all over the place in quality. I downloaded one that was highest mp4 and it was 340x280. Did another and it was 720x480. Photo and navigation problems are the same as other Kink sites. No full photo zip download. Model list takes you to a network wide listing of each model and even if you have a membership to a site a scene is on, it tries to get you to sign up for the site or use pay on demand kinks, so it's useless. The best way to navigate the Kink sites is scroll, scroll, scroll.
These negatives are still fairly small and not enough to take away much from the site's overall grade. I do think for those who like to see women in dominant roles, it does the job. I could nitpick and say if the men were more masculine or even put up the least bit of resistance, but you do get the feeling the type of domination they are going for is the woman saying, "If you want me you will do what I say" and they do that well.
Another very good site from Kink that is recommended for those who are into this genre.
The DL limit seems to give me some kind of accrued limit. If I don't download anything for 3-4 days, I can go way over the limit of 10 GB per day. If I hit the limit everyday, it's giving me between 9-10 GB per day before shutting me out.
Still, I wanted to share the overall amount I downloaded in a month. I do not download the HD versions. I download the 720x480 videos and most picture sets. For the last month, I have downloaded 382 video scenes, 298 photo sets and hit the limit 5 times in one week. The total amount of filesize this equaled is 242 GB. I was going to do a re-review since it's one of my highest rated sites, but I can't see taking that much off my score since I just downloaded enough scenes to last me for one per day, for more than a year.
My score would lower just a little based on principle, maybe 3 points, but I wouldn't be able to justify it enough to write an entire new review for it, outside of saying, "Taking 3 points off for the DL Limit".
Not only distinguishing it as season 1, but on the last one in the list it still says updates weekly.
The good thing, it at least looks like they are now releasing more b/g sets. I think you know by my review that I am glad KL is over and won't be seeing a sequel. If I was to say, I would guess they got ahead of themselves with the excitement of the new site and tried to do too much. If it was just about anyone besides Met-Art, I would have scored the site lower since I wouldn't expect most sites to be able to refocus, but it does look like Met is doing so now.
