Glad to hear that deal shows up here now. I always feel like I am cheering for the wrong team when I join away from PU/TBP.

Nick Nxn's Review
"I wish they didn't have Transsexual content." This is not really a con because it is only personal taste. Many people like transsexual content. Normally I would not say anything but in this case it needs to be stated that you can simply ignore that content all together. Granted you will still see it on the page, but it is pretty easy to tell which videos will be transsexual and should be avoided by you.
Another thing, I truly hate to say it, but TBP/PU is not the best deal if you want long term. The best deal comes by clearing your cookies and joining. PU offers $100 for 10 months I believe, where as VideoBox has an offer for $120 to get you 18 months. This may have changed since I last joined about 2 months ago. This is something worth passing along Khan if not already, I did not look. I would rather you guys get some credit for my joining.
Download have always been fast here, but navigation has been a bit funky for me lately. It keeps sending me to the Vivid Premium page and forces me to go all the way back through to where I left off, very annoying. Since I never signed up for those "channels" it makes no sense.
Lastly, all those facts can be found nearly anywhere. I, we, would love to see some opinions and experiences thrown into this review. VideoBox is a heavily reviewed site so the facts are not in any real dispute. The popular sites such as this are much better served, along with fellow PU'ers, if things other than site facts are discussed. In other words, make this review much more personal.

Horstl's Review
Not be defensive of Videobox for their sake but I must point out that this review is very similar to the one you did for AbbyWinters. Not saying the reviews are the same or fake. The point is that the pros and cons are basically the same and the overall opinion is about the same, which is fine, but the score is very different. You have VideoBox as an 80 and AbbyWinters as a 95!
People having different opinions here is great and it is expected that people will score site differently. The problem is that it I can not figure out why these two sites were scored differently based off your reviews. I am hoping you can enlighten me on this, because right now it seemed like you felt about the same for both of them.

That is a bit retarded! It does not matter to me at this point because I am in the middle of my 10 month subscription. But there are likely people looking to join that can not make heads or tails of it. I am always sceptical of a site when there are pricing discrepencies like this.

Indeed you are right. Well, I think I liked the other deal better for the long term deal. It was only $20 more for an additional 8 months.
So as it would seem, if someone wants a short term membership they should clear their cookies, but if they want a long term deal they should try looking around without clearing them first. Kinda weird.
Good catch Exotics.

They do that every now and then. They are up now and it is a bit different. I see what you mean about the Vivid and Evil Angels videos. I wonder what upgrading costs and what that would do to a 10 month membership like I have?

I do not like the sounds of that. I guess I will have to be careful where I click around.

Well, the 1.5 TB are the best buy per GB right now. Paying an extra $170 for an additional 500 GB to get a 2 TB drive simply is not worth it. In a few months I would be looking for them to be closer to $150.

Gotcha. I never use their streaming videos. I download everything. With the connection I have here it is by far better to download when nicer videos are being viewed.

Hum....did they just cut off the ends or did they just "squeeze" it in and make the people look distorted? Either way I do not like it.
I hope this is an isolated thing. I would hate to see my 100 get lazy and become less valuable to me.

I have noticed that some of their videos even though they should be in widescreen use full screen resolution but use the black bars at the top and bottom. They do have some of their stuff correct, but I do not know about everything.

OttifantSir's Review
I like that they keep the site dull. It makes if very easy to use. This way I spend more time enjoying the videos or doing other things, and less time spent actually on the site trying to build up my download queue.
Having pictures would be nice, but the only way they could really do with would be to use screen shots, which would be pretty pointless. Besides, with a name like Videobox, one must expect that videos would be the focus.
I do like your point of compounding genres. It would be nice to say "teens" then reduce to "teens" and "blondes" for example. But what the hell do I know, I am trying to download their whole site!

Everyone knows I love this site as well. I like the $100 10 month option. It is much cheaper that way.
Dont worry, I was clueless about gonzo until a few months ago I eventually figured it would on my own. Videobox is definitely all about gonzo. They cut off all the fluff!

I have not had this issue, but I have had issues getting connections with them lately. Not really sure what is going on.
They previously have not limited the number of connections. So if there are is it is something pretty new. When I download form them, which is usually about 18 hours per day every day while I am away or sleeping, I am using 5 and occasionally 6 connections and never had any issues with them limiting it.
My relatively new issue is with queuing up files to download. i click the file and usually half a second later the file is ready to go, but lately there are times where I can hardly do anything. i click the file and i wait sometimes up to a full minute for the file to come through, and it is in error anyway because my manager forces it through.
You should not need to start the downloads over. Even downloads that are a week or so old can be resumed if you update the source. The only time I actually have to start over is if I stop a file and let it go for a month or so, then I can not resume.

If you really enjoy the site can anticipate sticking around for awhile you should look into joining through the 10 month option. You will end up paying $10 per month this was. As far as I know NO ONE offers that much content for a price lower than that!

When my non-recurring long term membership expired a few months back they did not say anything either. What mad me a bit mad is that I could not simply renew or even use the same username!
Now in their defense on your issue. Assuming you went through CCBill, VB would not actually have your credit card information. So, they would have no idea your information was going to change, and CCBill handles all that stuff for them. You can update your information on CCBill now to prevent these issues.

I must say that Videobox my not be the fastest site out the there, but the certainly can hold there own. I have seen them hold 45 MBit/s for hours on end. They do have a fair amount of formats.

I have had Video box download at 50 MBit/s for many hours at a time even during afternoons and evenings. So I must agree that their speed is actually pretty good.

I honestly would recommend a long membership here than 1 month, you can save a lot of money by going with a longer one. That is of course assuming you like the content. I would say to try it for a month than consider the longest subscription if you see a lot that you like.
I am usually not a multi month subscriber from the begining, but sometimes I end up staying for more than a month. To me this site is large enough to go for a year.
Oh yeah....do not be cheap, go for the DVD quality. It does not cost that much more, and really it is still cheaper than most sites anyway.
I have problems a lot choosing which site I will join next as well. There are so many good ones to choose from! :)

Sound like you are one of those "unlucky" people who joins an otherwise fast site and gets ridiculously slow speeds. Personally I have only on rare occasions had and speed issues from them in the past two years. But it seems that many sites big and small seem to have a few people that just can not get any speed when everyone else is running normally. Keep trying to get a hold of them for a refund. Videobox is big enough that they could afford to give you one, then try again in a few months and see if you have better luck.
It is worth noting though that with Brazzers I can download here at 3 MBit/s, my DSL speed, and everything works just fine. But, if I go to my faster connection even using the same laptop the downloads literally stop for several minutes then start for a few seconds and stop again even when every other site is blazing fast. It really can be location and ISP unfortunately.

I really dont want to agitate you RB, but you gave the site a 97. There is not a lot of differences between a 97 and a 100. Things that some people see as cons I see in a different light. So far this is the only thing I have seen that we disagree on. So I ask you, is a negative trust really necessary. Hell, I even vote for you, and left a nice comment. I am not here to make people mad, it just happened with that review although it should not have. So far you are the only one still biting at it. So out of what, 26 review, I write one that you dont like and even defend it and you still dont trust me? Is there something wrong with my logic on the VB review.
Also, the difference between what you say about me and what I say about other people when they give a 100 or so is that I am willing to retract a negative trust. And, these people are not giving any reason at all why they feel a 100 is warranted. I gave many reasons and explained them. Explained them well I might add.
I understand you dont need to approve my VB review, but check out my others and set aside any differences you might have. Ask yourself "does most of what he is saying about all these site check out?" I really dont want you to think to yourself "what is this asshole saying now" every time you see me post a review or comment!
Sorry for stealing your thread Denner, RB did not have an email link on his personal page, so this seemed like the better way.
