There is solo and a little soft content. For the solo content look under the category "Masturbation."

Okay. I never said I took off from Twistys based on the DVD section. I always believe that more content is better, and if the extra content is junk it should not matter as long as it does not take away from the real content. I just do not see Twistys as a DVD site. Months ago when i was a member there they did not have a huge quantity of DVDs and they were slow coming, so i would rather them put that time into making actual updates. Then Twistys posts a part of a new DVD it counts as the daily update. I would rather see something that I have not seen elsewhere as the daily update.
VB is specifically design for DVDs, so I expect them to post DVDs from external producers. If Twistys posted the DVDs sperately from th normal updates I would not care because it would be considered extra content. Instead they are posting is the daily update making it main content. I would like to see something I could not buy on DVD posted as main site content for the daily update.
It is based on what I expect from the site. I expect DVD updates as the main content from VB, but I expect something brand new from Twistys as the updates. DVDs is just nor their thing. Also, there are other reasons for the difference in score, such as the file names and media quality.

I dont mind fake tits, but they need to be within reason. I do much prefer naturals with nice shape, but fake do look very nice when clothing is worn..obviously not the case in porn! Again, this is a personal preference between each user.
Yes, BV does "steal" their stuff. In other words they do not produce it. They just take a bunch of it and put it where we can all get it. When you go to a porn store, assuming you do perhaps you dont, you want to see stuff from Hustler, Zero Tolerance and all the other producers. No one want to go to 12 different sores to shop for porn. VB is like an online porn shop that you pay once a month and watch all you can. Twistys just did not have enough DVDs to do this well. Also, they way the did posted them was one scene every few days or whatever. At VB they post the whole damn thing at once and dont make you search around for the other half of the video.
I hope I have sufficiently "spun" this for you RB. :)
If I have not please let me know and I will dream up something else!

What can I say, Brazzers is about big titties and who cares how they got there! They could use some more big naturals I agree, but it is there thing. But it is not really right to compare VB with Brazzers. VB doesnt have to make their stuff, they just steal it from everyone else and put it in one place and try to have so much that new people shit themselves when they see the video count. It is very easy to get a few hard drives full a month from them.
Brazzers makes their stuff and they make what they like. It is a different story when you actually have to film the scene and find the women and averything else involved. I wish brazzers could be bigger and better, but they can not simply insert the DVD they just bought and push the upload button. Do have to give Brazzers credit though, they are 600 GB so far and that is nothing to be ashamed of! But they will never match the amount of content the VB has.

I guess I have to speak up on this one. I am "that guy" who rated them at 100!! I agree that older videos suck, as they do on all sites, but VB does post old shit as new at times. In their defense though they do post enough stuff every day to keep most people busy. SO if you dont like a certain video just skip over it because there are certainly plenty others and at least a few of them will grab your attention. The quality on video box does need to improve. They have the bit rate to provide some good looking stuff, but I believe it is upscaled to use twice as much bandwidth to show the same thing. I still do not believe anyone else beats them. Besides, it you download one movie every other day you still come out ahead of paying a buck for the movie at the shit bin in the store. I believe they are great, but need to do better if they want to stay on top because others are catching up pretty quickly.

In KB/sec I am assuming then you are talking about Bytes rather than Bits correct. Assuming you are talking about Bytes, that is not too shabby! Your 15 Mbit/s connection would kick the crap out of my 3 MBit here at home, but not the 100 Mbit LAN I use :) Anyway Then you would be getting about 200 or so KByyes/s, that is not terrible, but it should be much faster. Perhaps they throttle out of USA connection? I really dont know, but that is too bad it is not fast for you. I have heard of others getting much lower speeds though, down as low as 2 KBit/s! I could understand this affecting their reviews, I dont care how great a site is if you cant get anything from it! I was on the LAN a week ago and got 30 MBit/s for 6 hours from them, but i was downloading from Nubiles too at the same time at another 20 or so MBit/s.

Yes! There is a certain allure to nicely taken photos. And the screaming in any video can get old after a while. I typically watch my DVDs on mute. A soft moan can be extremely erotic, but the screaming bloody murder seen (heard) in so many videos can eventually be a turn off...so I turn it off! :)
Try getting a hold of their customer service, perhaps they have a bad connection across the boarder for some reason and other have had the same issue from Canada. Their site is fast for me, but I will ask how many were you trying to download at a time and what is your actual internet connection speed?
I can tell you that I have never seen more than 12 Mbit/s per connection come from any website period! When I am downloading from the LAN connection I sometime use I am downloading at least 10 videos at a time using 1 connection per video. I can nearly always get at least 40 Mbit/s from them alone.
Or maybe you are just unlucky. I have been unlucky with Brazzers lately and cannot download them from the LAN, but can at home? Go figure!

Hum? I have no speed issues with Videobox. They have been a great backdrop for me when another site is giving me fits. There have been many times that I sustained 40 Mbit/s for several hours at a time.
That is the great thing about forums, people do not have to agree and you can rate the site based on your experiences. Mine have been absolutely wonderful with Videobox. The cons I listed are not terrible things and nothing I personally hold against the site, but I thought it fair to mention something at least. I did so because I though they might be viewed as negative to some people. I gladly pay more for better quality, and I would not want to pay for quality I could not use if I were on dial up or something.
They could use some expansion to sub-niches, but they are definitely a straight up hardcore video site, the few videos they do have of other niches could be viewed as treats in addition to the normal stuff.
I do not truly view the cons I listed as major cons, but rather as the slight changes that could be made, but are by no means necessary!
Oh and yes, I love pictures too! Millions of pictures!

Then lets have the webmaster delete the option to leave a 100. But then I would give them a 99 because that would then be the perfect score! This is an endless cycle.
Worth noting, any time someone says "Valid but ignored." it throws up an immediate flag saying that "what I am about it say is in ignorance because I am ignoring statements that I myself classify as valid." Please do not take that as a personal attack, I do enjoy this debate.

Very nice point! It does make thing more interesting, and I like to play devil's advocate. But I do honestly believe they are the best. Every other site is lacking something as well. Videobox lacks the least at this point. I do promise however that if someone comes along and beats Videobox in my eyes than I WILL adjust my score. If a perfect site does exist, there can not be two, unless they are identical in which case that would be pointless. There is always a best out there. And the best is always the most close to perfection, and therefore would be our closest approximation to perfection. As this site words it...they are looking for approximate perfection.
Also, no one has defeated the logic behind my statements!! :)
So yes, I do enjoy this.

I cant believe people are still upset about this! It truly bothers some of you that I give a site a perfect rating. Dont worry, I am not the only person that will rate this site. Please review it yourself, assuming you have used it!

100 Perfect Site is perfect, could do little to improve. Top recommendation.
"..little to improve. To recommendation." That is how I rate this site!
Of course it could use slight modifications, but not much at all, which fits into the description of perfect.

Hum... I think I remember saying that about the perfect score. I do understand your point though, and it is very valid. However, keep in mind that I said that I score it at 100 because it is perfect for ME. You may have scored it differently. Please do not take me as a jerk for saying this, but please reread my posts and you will find answers to most questions you might have about my reasoning. Also, this is the ONLY site I give this high of a rating to. I love Brazzers, but I give them a 90 for reasons stated, although perhaps not perfectly.
Consider this: If a site is viewed as the best, than is it not perfect when compared to its competition? On what I have seen of other sites this is the most perfect site yet. Again, if I find something better I will drop my score, but until then it must stand, for me that is.

Download speeds are important to some people, therefore they should be added in a review if available.

Does any one else want to join the bandwagon and haze the new guy? I believe you should see my collection before insulting my analysis abilities. I hate being defensive, but you are bluntly attacking me on my first real review. Keep in mind that this a personal review, ot absolute fact. I BELIEVE this site is perfect for me. That is a personal opinion. FACT I have been using them for about 2 years, I downloaded more than 100 GB in the past week from them alone using my 3 mb/s DSL. I did not write a review worthy of a parade my first time out. But I do want people to understand that I might actually be able to provide some insight to download this and many other websites. Some of the website I have downloaded are designed to hinder downloading.
If you would like to to actually revise my review to reflect comments I made in these discussions just tell me this. Besides, people can read these as well and get all this information. So in fact this is a good review because I have answered many questions. But I see no need for me to need to defend myself because I did not mention every bit of information I have about any given site.
If any one does not trust me about what I have said about this site than I certainly will challenge you to provide evidence that shows I am mistaken. What you have said is that because I did not include absolutely everything I know and my reasons for my opinions I am not trustworthy.
I am still waiting for the reason why I should not call this site the more perfect I have seen thus far.

I agree with you. I have been downloading porn for along time, but not posting reviews. The reason I mention the speeds I was able to attain is because others were having issues with speed. I do not want people to be afraid of this site because a few people have slow downloads. So I provided information on the other end of the spectrum and give provide information that is not exaggerated. I appreciate your criticism and will certain keep it in mind on following reviews. I am also open to other pointers!

Define perfection. Some how I would suspect that it would be different from mine and different from the next guy reading this. The site is perfect for ME. I was pointing out things that others might not like. I give the site a 100, but you may not. My other point was that for a site to truly be perfect than every one must rate it at 100. This simply will not happen, therefore it is still unattainable.
Granted they make you pay more to get dvd quality, even still the price is great. It can also be viewed as simply giving a discount for those who do not want to download at dvd quality because of the size.

I have never seen a site that no one thought could be changed or improved in some way. I have never seen a site that offered a lifetime of content in every niche imaginable and if a site of this magnitude ever did exist it would be the end of all other sites because they simply could not compete. Video Box is not perfection, but they do what they do better than any other that I have seen. What good is a score if 100 if it is unattainable? Video Box is the closest I have seen, so they get 100 because they are the best...until someone else forms a better site!

The reason I give it such a high rating is because the speeds are among the best I have ever seen. I have had access to an OC3 connection for several years and have final tapped it about a year ago. This site has given me amazing download speeds that are able to be sustained. I have pulled more than 45 Megabits per second from them for hours at a time. This is in the middle of the day and evening. The quality of the videos is good as well. Most of the newer ones are more than 2 Megabits per second, and many of the movies dating back have similar bit rates. I have downloaded countless websites and this one is the easiest to download. I can get a good sized download queue in a few minutes that will last through the night and most of the day on my 3 megabit DSL home connection.
It can not be expected for a website to cater to every fetish that a person might have. If you want big tits go to Brazzers, you want hairy chicks go to Abby Winters, or for art go to MetArt. You get the idea. But Video Box has a great deal of the standard stuff that most people can appreciate and little of everything else. I would like to see more of the more unusual fetishes, but Video Box can only post videos that are being made, and they do not make their own content.
My main point is that they are fast and reliable with a huge amount of content that always updates. This is important to me as a heavy downloader.

Sorry to hear that! I have had sustained speeds of more than 45 Mega Bits per second from them. When I say sustained I mean for times of several hours at a time. I would try using a download manager of some sort, this makes a huge difference for me. I have never had any issues with speed at all from them in about two years. There is always the day or two were the speeds are limited due to server maintenance. I would give them another try sometime.

| Status: |
Current Member for over 1 year (at the time of review).
|
| Pros: |
High Quality, over 10 MBit video
Thousands of videos
Old Videos still posted
Very fast downloads. I have seen over 45 M-bits
No download limit or DRM
Very frequent updates
Very good price
Offers long term discount pricing of $9.95/month! |
| Cons: |
Not too much content for alternate niches
No pictures, hence the name Videobox, but hardly a con
Site wont stop growing, I dont think I can handle all this porn! :) |
| Bottom Line: |
Extremely valuable site and a must have for any serious porn user. The download speeds will keep your internet connection pegged. The offer different download packages and prices based on quality of download. Pay more for the dvd quality, you wont be sorry. Also, consider the long term package, it will save you money in the long run since you wont want to leave this site!
Downloading on this site is very easy. They do not seem to limit the amount of connections and they do support pausing downloads.
The bit rates for the videos here do vary a bit. They are usually around 5 MBit/s but I have seen some newer videos at nearly 12 MBit/s. 12 is a bit excessive, even the videos at 6-8 look great. The DVD resolutions are 720x480 or 640x480 for all the new additions and have been there for quite some time now. There are literally thousands of videos to choose from and the updates come every 5 hours!
I am currently a long term member of this site and they give a nice discount for joining long term. They offer 3 options for joining. There is the Basic plan for those who are not interested in DVD quality movies for whatever reason, you can join at $9.95. This is nice because they do not make you pay for something you wont use. There is a monthly plan of $17.95 that allows DVD quality downloads and a 10 month plan for $100 that also allows for the DVD quality.
I intend to stay for a long time!
Yes. I know the score pisses you off! |

You have to be careful even there. Cybertoad recently got burnt by following that exact method. A site was rated high by a few unestablished users and it ended up being different from what they described.
You need to take a few minutes to read the reviews. It only takes 10 minutes to read a number of reviews and comments and most of us do not make $30 in 10 minutes, so it is a wise investment. I would try to stick with reviewers with 10 points or more. They have done a handful of reviws by that point and are genuinely interested in reviewing. Many people review only one or two sites out of passion or frustration and then leave. Gotta watch those ones.
There are many sites in the 80s and some even lower that are very good sites. I have found many sites with 65 ratings that I give higher scores to. It is all opinionated. If the 65 site is a niche site that you enjoy you may not share the same opinion as a previous reviewer. For example, no foot fetish site is going to get flying colors by me simply because that is not a niche I enjoy. So if that site is worth an 87 based on content and design I might not give is that score. I might give it an 82 simply because i did not enjoy the content. The trick is to realize that when you score a site and to make mention of it in a review. As a reader you need to look for what is said and less for a score. Not every review scores a site the same way, and also notice there can be score differences on PU as compared to TBP.
