That's a valid point, but I think it's the same quality for the full subscription since TBP reviewers said something similar. It's a real shame since the concept is pretty original.

Pros:
-The site offers a unique niche that you won't find anywhere else, not even close
-Although the site started with a "post-apocalyptic" theme, the creators have branched out into new ones including a fitness fetish and a series set in the old west
-The production values are extremely high for a porn site, with lots of action, realistic props and sets, and a really smooth feel to all of the content
-While many sites might eventually rotate out some series or videos, it's all still included
Cons:
-The quality of the videos on the site is downright awful and picture quality is only average at best
-Navigating the site is like touring a disaster area with different sorting methods but no real order to the site overall
-The site mostly exists as a teaser for the DVDs that they make, which is the only way to get the content at high quality
-The price is far too much for what you get in return and you are paying for the high cost of production which has risen numerous times over the years.
Bottom Line:
Before diving into my review, I must admit that I signed up for the trial membership without any intention of joining for a full month. For me, there isn't any porn site that's worth over $25 a month and that's including multi-site networks. What I found in the site didn't change my mind on the price, but I felt it was only fair to admit I went into the trial already holding a bias.
The navigation for the site is downright awful, although it does allow you to sort the content according to the plot, date, or girl you want to find. Despite this, I found it very confusing and basically thrown together each time new content is added. When looking for content including Veronika Vanoza, for example, a couple of her videos were noted but it directs you to other girls' pages where she isn't the feature star.
Just about all of the content produced for the site is still there and you can view it chronologically so you can catch up. However, all of it plays at very low quality (less than 300kbps in most cases) and although the picture quality is average, both seem very substandard for this type of site.
In my opinion, the high price is due to the high cost associated with the prodcution of Action Girls, which would be perfectly fine if you got to see it in HD. However, what you end up with is a test drive of the lowest level ride in the place along with a hefty bill for your trouble. Join the trial for a look if the niche interests you in the least, but for me that's the end.

Pros:
-A recent redesign of the site improved navigation signifcantly and added a number of streaming DVDs for no added cost
-A very large number of niches are represented here, both in the individual sites and the recently added bonus content, including a number of solo softcore sites
-There were some scenes I found interesting, so you might find some diamonds in the rough
-Even if you don't like the network, you've only invested $10 which actually led to me staying a member for an extra month
Cons:
-Any improvements of the main network page are mitigated by the lack of any updates since the changes, now going on 3+ weeks
-Much of the content consists of scenes with low quality production values and often equally bad video quality that we've seen other places
-While they took the time to change mainstream actress' names, that just made it harder to find any of your favorites
-None of the plotlines are believable whatsoever and I found very few scenes to be at all erotic
Bottom Line:
Looking back at the sites I've ever paid under $10 for, there are few that are at all memorable. In most cases, all I can recall is the groaning I did when I had finished going through all the content. Unfortunately, this is one of those times, although there are a few redeeming qualities worth noting.
While I maintained my membership, the main network page was totally revamped and it definitely improved the layout and navigation significantly. It even led to me staying a member for an extra month, but in the three weeks since there haven't been any updates.
If the price wasn't enough of a red flag, the number of sites advertised should have kept me from proceeding. A lot of them would barely qualify as a full site and is really just an attempt to seem more full of content. Most of the scenes are with pornstars you've seen elsewhere with the usual lame plots that go nowhere.
I must admit that I did spend awhile in the newly added streaming video section and found some titles I hadn't seen before, but I suspect any member of a large DVD site would be less than impressed, especially with no downloads.
In the end, I was encouraged by some of the changes and really wanted to like the network, but nealry a month without updates is pretty unforgiveable. If you just want some down in the mud (not literally) sultty content for very little money, I might be able to recommend it, but for most it's a definite pass. Even if it got better, they'd probably raise the price.
In the reviews I've seen a basic trend: not enough girl/boy and too much solo. However, what's the breakdown on what they do have? I didn't really get a sense of how much girl/girl content there is vs. the solo. Do most models have videos and, if so, is there a standard type of content to their videos? This is really where I'm not sure if I'd join because the price seems high, but of course I haven't seen the members area yet!

Pros:
-You get a total of 7 different sites that cover themes such as mature, teen, and big boob
-The network includes dozens of bonus feeds on every imaginable niche with very good quality videos
-The "jewel" of the network is Pornstar Classics, which offers several different quality settings for the vids and allows you to customize your downloads
-As a whole the network contains well over a thousand videos for under $20 a month, so the amount of content vs. what you pay is very much in your favor
Cons:
-Most sites offer videos that you are likely to find in "bargain bins" at your local video store, so the content certainly isn't exclusive
-The sites offer some photos, but the majority only feature pics unrelated to the video content and are the kind you could probably find elsewhere
-While one site on the network offers countless video options, the others only allow two different quality settings and no advanced DL tools like zips
-Most of the sites don't offer any advanced search features
Bottom Line:
One thing I like about joining a good network is that if there's one site you really like, it can usually be worth the price of admission by itself. Then, any additional sites you get are merely gravy or a cherry on top, depending on your tatses. Fortunately for me, this network fit that description like a glove.
I joined for Pornstar Classics which includes vids from the 70s and 80s with excellent features for viewing and dowloading its content. This site is a must for anyone who achieved puberty during those two decades and although the vid quality is limited by its pre-digital format, the result is very good.
Busty Classics is a nice companion to PC and features mostly photos of "big boob" stars from the 80s with a few videos. It lacks the advanced features of its counterpart, but photophiles will be very pleased. Do My Mom and Mommy Loves Pussy are primarily made up of bargain DVDs with compilation content although there is plenty of it as a nice desert to your main courses. There's also Porn Different for you Apple folks with QT vids.
The remaining sites, Candy Films and Smashcom XXX Movie Station, offer the same type of videos but on a variety of niches. Undoubtedly you can find some gems here if you are willing to take the time to search for them and none have DRM! All that along with the bonus feeds makes this network a very good value for the money and if only one site strikes your fancy it's still worth it for the volume and quality you'll get in return.
Very interesting to hear how you guys review sites! Just like Drooler, I always figured you guys got free access.
I had noticed that the site facts were updated after my comment and I just looked at it as an example of PU working as it was intended.
So, as I said in my response to Drooler, I'll still sign up for trials that TBP says are full access, but pay attention a bit more to when the facts were verified...which I assume is why TBP puts that info there in the first place.
I wouldn't go so far as to say that TBP isn't reliable since they have to check so many details at a variety of sites. Quite frankly, it can be easy to miss something like that and I might have missed it myself. And for all we know it's something that was changed after TBP went through to get site facts, which they only claim to be valid as of a certain date.
So, personally I'm not going to hesitate to join a trial if TBP says it's full access, although I may take a closer look at when the facts were verified. TBP has done pretty well so far and no one is perfect. In fact, incidents like these are why they created PU in the first place since we'll catch stuff they don't!
Anway, that's my $0.02, but I can certainly understand your frustration.

Pros:
-You get nearly 200 photo galleries with about 90 to 130 pictures each that are very good quality digital shots, not vidcaps
-The viewer options for the photos are numerous since you can resize the thumbs, change the number of thumbs per page, and have variable size slideshows
-The newer videos (25) are HD with multiple options for viewing and download speeds at up to 4000kbps while the older videos (30) are only of average quality
-You get access to two similar teen "doll" websites
Cons:
-The videos all run very short (approx. 5 minutes each), are only updated about once a month, and are very repetitive with only light solo masturbation that NEVER goes all the way
-The diary only has 4 entires that span just a month's time and were last updated nearly a year ago, making me wonder if Alyssa is still involved with the site
-The trial membership doesn't allow you to download the picture sets as zip files
-There just isn't enough here to justify membership beyond the trial
Bottom Line:
I joined this site, mostly on a whim because I saw that Alyssa had short hair, but also because of the cheap trial cost that according to the TBP info was full access. After joining I did have access to all the content, but there was a very helpful feature that wasn't made available.
The site is very basic since it has the standard video, photo, diary, and "about me" sections. The first sign of trouble at this site was the fact that the diary hadn't been updated in almost a year and only had a few entries in it at all. The site is easy to navigate, but certainly isn't flashy.
The pic and vid sections are fairly well stocked with options for viewing and as is often the case the newer content is better quality than the older material. One big problem with the pic section was that trial members can't download the sets in zip files. The vids however are downloadable in a number of quality settings, up to 4000kbps.
One of the main things I didn't like was the lack of variety in the vids. Alyssa gets undressed, rubs herself, moans and looks turned on, but at the 5 minute mark she just stops. Every one ends like that which left me wanting for even one climax. So, while technically hardcore as she shows and touches all her "bits" it's not much more than softcore.
In the end, I can't see spending $25 a month on this site. You can dowload some good media with the trial, but beyond that I really wouldn't recommend this very uninspired site where very little is happening.
LOL! I would ask them, but it's only TBP that made the claim about a full trial, so that doesn't have much to do with the site itself. And, like I said, you still get full access to the content, so maybe that's the new way to get around the issue. I guess it's up to the folks over at TBP to make the call on this one.
I just signed up for this site with the trial membership which was verified by TBP to be full access. However, upon initial inspection I noticed that you can't download the photo sets in a zip file until you are a full member of the site. Now, I suppose it's strictly true that you still have access to all the site's content, but to me a full access trial refers not only to the content but also to the features available to full members.
It's certainly possible that this is a new development which TBP doesn't know about and, again, maybe they don't think a lack of zip downloads is really a big deal. They'd certainly have a point there, so any opinions on this are welcome. In any case, I thought it was worth reporting in case anyone feels the way I do. I know they just want to protect their content from those who do trial "hit and runs", but it does leave a bad taste in the mouth.
Hey roseman! I've been a big fan of your reviews, but your score is 20 points higher than TBP. I don't doubt that you think this is an awesome site for even a second, but what do you think accounts for such a large gap? Let us know!
Great review H! It's great to have a woman's perspective on this site with some many of us dudes. Kudos on all your reviews and I look forward to your next one!

Pros:
-You get around 64 videos, each with a picture set that can be downloaded as a zip file with real digital shots (not vidcaps) in most cases
-The more recent videos have the best quality with up to 2,000kbps WMV files as well as MOV, MPEG, and MP4 formats that are all downloadable
-Unlike some other Naughty America sites, this one displays some creativity with its scenarios
-You get full access to all ten NA "Tier 1" network sites with your membership for under $25
Cons:
-The older clips aren't dated on the main page just like the other network sites. It doesn't seem like a big deal, but then why do they do it?
-Before the beginning of '07 the highest quality setting for WMV files is only 512kbps and the videos are very blurry and pixelated
-The majority of the girls try to play amateurs but are clearly professional pornstars
-The male stars are used repeatedly which isn't a deal breaker by any means, but it certainly doesn't help the fantasy aspect
Bottom Line:
I've reviewed about half the sites on the Naughty America network and while I've been disappointed in most of them, this one does have a nice way of addressing the boring and ridiculous plots. Most of the scenes still show the actors having sex for not much of any reason, but the idea here is that the sex is being imagined by the guy who in "reality" doesn't get along with the girl. It's a small adjustment, but I did find it a bit less tedious than the other NA sites.
Like the rest of the network the best quality vids are the most recent ones and the highest setting is pretty decent, but set any lower it's dreadful. You have plenty of options for file format and each vid comes with a pic set that are more often than not high quality shots. At least everything can be downloaded!
One thing I've noticed with NA sites is that they often rent high end houses with modern furniture and I think they'd do better varying the scenarios by recording in a variety of locales. I don't care if they film the scene in the gaffer's living room if it would vary the action some more and I'd give anything for the girls to have some real enthusiasm.
In sum, I did uncover some positives not found on other network sites, but for many the lack of a real niche (other than daydreaming) may offset that part. The added full netowrk access to the other 9 NA sites does make the site more appealing but as someone else on PU noted recently, the content on the network as a whole is getting very stale.
I have a number of "offbeat" fetishes and spend much time browsing the "Specialty" niche at TBP. Sometimes I feel like I'm in the section of the library no one ever visits, not because there aren't interesting books there, but because other sections are more popular. That's also where people go to have sex in a public place, but that doesn't fit my metaphor so just leave that part out for now. ;)
One of those fetishes is girls who play sports and while I think calling them Jock Girls makes no sense since they don't wear Jock-Straps, they usually have some cahones and that will suffice. I always enjoyed it when the tough girl in school would end up looking like a godess all dressed up for the prom or the tomboy you work with that let's her hair down after your shift is over. For lovers of that genre, we get a segment on ESPN about once a year profiling sexy athletes and we're always grateful.
So, when I saw this site I got excited, but upon further review it seems to just be glam girls dressed up in eye black and jerseys. I'm sure this is sexy to some, but submissive girls trying to appear tough just doesn't do it for me. Olympic swimmer Amanda Beard appearing in the next issue of Playboy? Yes, that's hot. This site? Not so much, at least what I've seen from the tour. If anyone has joined this site I'd love to know more because I rarely go dipping for gems when the price is $35! That makes me doubt anyone has joined, but I suppose it's worth a shot in the dark. ;)

Pros:
-All videos are available to be streamed or downloaded in two different formats (WMV & MPEG) at two different speeds
-Although not HD, vids run at decent quality (over 1000kbps) and all of the episodes have high res photos as well as vidcaps
-If you find ass licking to be erotic, then this is certainly a required detination since it delivers what the site's name claims to offer
-You get full access to the Meatmembers network with over three dozen sites all for under $30 a month
Cons:
-All vids on the site are "clipped" into segments, some as short as three minutes, which can be good for dial up but aggrivating for broadband
-The cameraman/director is a real jerk with an annoying lisp who treats the girls like crap, which I suppose could be a plus if you like that, but for me I just wanted him to shut up
-Perhaps it goes without saying, but if you don't like rough sex and humiliation this isn't for you
-The site only updates about twice a month which I consider too slow
Bottom Line:
A few days ago I did a review of the entire Meatmembers network, which this site is a part of, preceded by numerous sister site reviews. I thought I was done, but I decided to do a couple more after receiving some comments from previous users about sites they had liked.
Like other Meatmembers sites, the navigation is simple and straightforward with a vidcap for each episode with links for vids, pics, and caps right next to each one. The site only updates every couple weeks which I think is substandard, but they are counting on you visiting other network sites for daily new content. Unlike some others this one has high res pics for every episode, but varies in number.
Members of the site's network should be well aquainted with the camera guy who admits freely that he is an jerk and I agree 100%. In most cases I turned the sound off since I found his voice annoying which killed the mood. I agree that some will enjoy the rough theme, but when he asks the girls to provide their real names on camera he just comes off as pure asshole.
In the end, the site is nearly identical to Meatholes except for a stronger focus on ass licking, although Meatholes has that as well in most vids. Without the network access there's no way this site is worth the pricetag, but with the network it's probably your best bet for a high volume of extreme hardcore content. I found it worth a month's membership, but in the final equation found it got old very quick and I don't plan to resubscribe.

Pros:
-This site respresents the growth and new focus of its associated network and will please members like me that were looking for some variety
-There are multiple options for video viewing and downloading in both WMV and MOV formats
-As with other network sites, navigation is a breeze which makes finding the content you want very simple and easy.
-You get full network access for the first month at under $10. the price does double after the first month, but if you like the site you won't care
Cons:
-If authenticity is what you are looking for you'd be advised to go elsewhere since only some models are arab (if that for all I know) with most appearing to be latina and/or caucasian
-The so-called "pictures" are really just vidcaps which is a disappointment
-Although the quality of the newer videos and girls are higher, there is a wide gap between where the site started and where it is today
-You'll only find true amateurs here and if you want pro models don't waste your time or money
Bottom Line:
Of the options available on the Incredible Pass network, this is one of the newer sites and showcases the change of direction I think the network is taking as a whole. Like the other sites, the earlier videos end with a bizarre ritual of writing on the girls' heads with a magic marker and having them brush their teeth with the guy's cumshots. I found this to be my least favorite aspect of the network, but that's definitely a subjective thing that many will enjoy.
The more recent videos are good quality, the girls are sexier and many of the issues I've noted with this network are either gone or significantly improved. I'd still recommend this site only for true amateur lovers, but more mainstream models and newer pornstars are making appearances.
As you go deeper you'll notice the changes from the original videos to the newest ones with increases in video and model quality as well as less repetitive themes. If you are a lover of authetic arab girls you may not be very satisfied because I get the impression that many if not most of the girls are certainly not arab, being latina or at the most from India. However, if you like themed sites and look at this as a fantasy scenario, the non-authetic arab aspect isn't really going to bother you.
In the end, the extra network access, the recent growth, and the low first month price make this site worth checking out to see if it gets you going and anyone who likes latinas but wants a different "flavor" will be very happy here.
That's a good suggestion about a poll; I'll get right on that! And there are some former NN models I'd love to see go "all the way", one being Jen Hilton!
I thought some people might not consider masturbation hardcore, but I guess most do. The action Aria does varies a lot from one scene to the next. In one she'll be going down on a girl with full speed and in another she'll barely be touching the other girl. Let's just get it out of the way and have her do a full hardcore boy/girl scene. Yeah, it's not realistic, but a guy can dream, right? ;)
Thanks for the comments e4m! I love the thought of her doing more hardcore scenes, so we'll just have to see. One thing that REALLY bugs me about her lately is that she shaved her eyebrows and does them with pencil. I don't know about other people, but I think that's ugly and only real eyebrows are sexy. I get an image of some 80 year old lady doing that...yuck! Please Aria, let them grow back in! ;)
As for being the "shy" one, that's the same deal as Asia Carerra: Really shy and smart, but inside a wild child! At least we get the benefits and now I'm trying to think who would be the most likely from my class to turn into a porn star!
I've loved Aria Giovanni from the first time I saw her and although I haven't stopped, I did have a question that was prompted from my status as a fan. What constitutes hardcore? I'm probably the last person who noticed that Aria doesn't do b/g scenes since I was mesmerized by her beauty in picture sets. I'm definitely a video guy, but still found myself collecting her pic sets like they were candy or a recreational narcotic whose name is also often used to describe the region between a person's buttocks.
So, basically I had resigned myself to the fact that I'd never see Aria taken from behind by a studly dude or get a cumshot wherever she saw fit to let it land. However, two videos I came across recently made me wonder what defines hardcore. The first was of Aria going up and down on a dildo that was attached to a table, while the second showed her putting a fist up her love canal. Neither is particularly an original act, but when it involves a star that says she won't do hardcore I was very surprised and pleased to say the least.
What's the point of all this? Previously, hardcore didn't necessarily mean a b/g scene, but does mean there is penetration of some kind. Whether it's lesbian sex where there's mouth/finger to "hotbox" contact or Aria inserting various objects into herself, I defined that as hardcore. Am I wrong on that? It wouldn't be the first time and won't be the last if I am right, but regardless I'd be curious to hear what others think.
Great review! I loved Aria's site when I was member, but the lack of hardcore kept me from renewing. Her lesbian content isn't even really hardcore, so I'm not sure that what she does is even porn. She's a beautiful woman and perhaps her "softcore only" status makes her classier, but as you pointed out that's not why many of us join sites like this.
Does the site say you can download videos? If not you probably can't, although sometimes if you right click you can "Save Target As...". Just a thought.

Pros:
-Very intense ass play, with ass to mouth (ATM), ass licking, and lots of anal sex with girls in miltary themed outfits. This isn't my thing, but lovers of this specific genre will be very happy
-All episodes can be streamed in browser or downloaded to your computer at multiple quality settings
-When purchased with the Mega Site Pass network, you get this and dozens of other company sites for less than $10 a month
-Theme certainly is unique and not something I have come across before
Cons:
-If something like ass to mouth doesn't appeal to you, I would avoid this site completely since there is no "big butt" focus
-This site includes one of my greatest pet peeves: vidcaps! However, if that doesn't bother you there are plenty of them to download, but without any zip options
-None of the episodes indicate when they were updated, so it's difficult to tell if this site is active or not
-There are only 28 episodes in all, so if you like them you could have trouble finding any more
Bottom Line:
When I went to review this site it didn't offer what I was expecting and, to be honest, isn't really my taste. However, since I am always on the prowl for sites with a very particular niche I am into, I figured it was worth a review for anyone looking for assplay and anal sex with a military theme. I can't say that I've ever encountered this one before!
Most of the scenes are straight sex and feature things like ass to mouth (where the girl gets fucked in the ass and then immediately gives the guy a blowjob), mutual anal licking, and of course anal sex. In each episode (there are 28 in all) the girl is wearing something military themed like a cammo bikini, fatigues, a dress uniform (the sexy girl kind with the cutoff midriff), or a black knit cap with matching panties.
Besides the military aspect and the anal focus, there isn't anything remarkable about this site. However, I could easily see where this might turn someone on who is into light domination, the fantasy of being "recruited" and general clothes fetishists. Again, it isn't my thing, but I am familiar with how a subtle theme that is my thing can quickly arouse my interest.
The bottom line is that by itself this site will only offer great appeal to fetish lovers, anal lovers will be midly entertained, and anyone else would find it a curiousity worth perhaps a few minutes. The main thing that makes it worthwhile is that it's part of a network and a large one at that. So I'd only recommend it as outlined above.
