Pros:
-Apparently one username and password will work to gain entry to all the bonus sites I am supposed to have access to.
-Get access to 21 bonus sites with membership.
-Download manager works. I use Down Them All, which is very helpful at this site.
-Homepage has a link to "YOUNG TIGHT PUSSY new for your ultimate pleasure", which opens an ad for fleshlight, which has differently named models of the fleshlight, also different color options, which is really more than I wanted to know.
Cons:
-You are assigned a random-generated username and password for site login.
-Primitive site design.
-Download speeds can vary from less thant 200 KB/sec to 1.3 MB/sec, which is my maximum download speed.
-You have to be patient with their hot links. They often don't work on the first or second click.
-Download manager is really helpful. If a video file stops downloading, you can resume the download with the download manager. Several files stopped downoading in mid-download, and I was able to resume the download in each case.
-Video files download with the default filename of "download.zip". So you have to rename the files to keep them separate.
-Site contents have no posting date.
-No search function. If you want to find the videos with a model, have to manually search through the entire videos and hope her name is listed on the tiny thumbnail that represents the video listing.
-No streaming offered. If you want to examine a video, have to download the video, and then play it.
Bottom Line:
This is not a tiny site. There are over 300 videos at this site. The theme of the site is young teens doing nasty things with sex.
The poor site structure makes navigation difficult. No search function, no model listing with thumbnails to show what the models look like, no model bios. They opened this site, and dumped a bunch of videos into it. And that's a shame. Because many of the models are cute or attractive. Many of the videos are nicely shot.
Videos are grouped into two categories:
Softcore movies, and hardcore movies.
Their definition of softcore includes lesbian sex, blowjob, masturbation.
Their definition of hardcore includes boy-girl fucking. Blowjob can be found in both the softcore and hardcore movie categories.
The videos are better than I thought they would be.
Sample data rates:
The frame width x height is: 1024x576.
Total bitrate: 2548kbps
Frame width x height is: 632x512
Total bitrate: 1181 kbps
The videos are professionally shot: good color, good focus, good lighting, nicely framed shots.
They also have some very attractive models at this site.
It's a shame they have some nice videos of attractive models that they just dumped the videos into a site without making much effort to making the site easier to use. Because of the unsorted, jumbled videos, most people would not realize that some of the videos are really excellent.
I'm giving the site a score of 75 because some of these videos are worth viewing and saving. That's in spite of the site problems which I've detailed: no search function, no streaming, no model iist with thumbnails to show what the models look like, hot links that barely work to download the videos.
I certainly can't recommend the site. Except that if you stumbled across some of the videos that I thought were really nice, maybe you would think the site might be worth joining, after all.
I wish I had a better command of words, to make my thoughts clear and concise. Instead, I tend to use a lot of words to try to describe what some people can relate in a few well-chosen words.
The site structure is poor, and makes it harder to use the contents of the site.

Pros:
-Good download speeds. I get 1 to 1.3 MB/sec, which is my max download speed.
-Down Them All download manager works at this site.
-No DRM.
-Long time before site timeout.
-Site uses Epoch.com as the billing agent, a nationally recognized bill agent.
-The content is dated when posted to the site.
Cons:
-Site needs a complete makeover to make it easier to use.
-Search function is poor. You enter the name of a model, and it turns out that the model is not even in the videos or photosets that are returned from the search. So either different models are given the same name, or the search function is crap. Either way, if you want to search for videos that a model appears in, it seems like you will have to manually search through all the videos at this site, which is a complete waste of time.
-No simple lising of site models, with a nice thumbnail to identify what they look like.
-Lots of advertising for other sites on members pages.
-There is an amateur feel to the videos. They seem to shot by an amateur videographer who has an amateur camera: the focus could be better, the shots could be better framed, the lighting is ok but not professional, the colors are not super-crisp, the sets/background is cheap furniture inside a house or apartment.
Bottom Line:
CONS (CONTINUED):
-Videos download with a poor default filename such as "high.MP4, so you have to rename them to tell them apart.
-The site structure is poor. To go through the videos, you have to click on a number to go to a page that lists 5 videos, then click on the higher number go to the next page. But you get duplicates of videos that were found on earlier pages. A video that appears on page 3 might also appear on page 4. So it's not easy to navigate the site, and the duplicate listings make it harder.
-No simple lising of site models, with a nice thumbnail to identify what they look like. Trying to identify who the models are in the videos is a waste of time. Unless you recognize a model in a video from some other site, you don't know who the models are in a video, because the names the site lists (for who appears in a video) are useless.
-Videos have subtitles to translate the Russian the models speak. But the video download files do not have the subtitles. Not a big deal, because the subtitles are mainly boring. The sex action is what counts.
BOTTOM LINE:
Sorry for the poor language, but these site/network really needs a makeover to make the site contents easier to use.
When you compare Teen Mega World or Diesel Access networks or X-Art or other high grade sites to this site, you begin to realize how much thought was put into making the other sites/networks easier to use. At Young Sex Parties, there is little to no thought to making the site user-friendly. They opened a site, dumped cheap amateur-style, home made videos into the site, and let the members sort through the mess without any helpful model list, without any effort to name the models on a consistent basis, without bothering to add a listing of the models in the videos.
Choice of file types for download:
FLV For Windows,
MP4 For Windows, Mac, iPad, iPhone4
MP4 For iPhone3/iPod

3GP For mobile phones
Number of site videos:
The Best Porn (the parent of the PU site) lists the number of site videos at 117.
I believe The Best Porn site reviewer just took the number of videos from the site facts, instead of counting the videos themselves.
You have a sort-of-listing of the videos pages, 24 pages in all, with most pages showing 5 videos. The last page has 3 videos. But like I mentioned, there are duplicate listing of at least several videos on those pages.
So the 117 video count at this site means you have 117 videos if you include the duplicate videos.
If you want to follow that system, then if a site has 10 video, and they list those 10 videos twice, then the site can claim 20 videos. Or even 100 videos, if they are sloppy enough to list their videos duplicate times in a list.
The models are real teens. Both the girls and the boys. The girls are OK, not really cute or super-attractive. On average, the models are less attractive than the teens you will see at random at a hometown mall. Maybe that's partly because the models appear to wear very little make-up to make themselves more attractive. The models' clothes are what they could buy at a thrift shop or the Salvation Army store.
The bottom line is, after watching a number of these videos, I start to find them mostly boring and a waste of time to watch. I much prefer the glamcore videos at X-Art or Diesel Access network, where an effort is made to present the models attractively. Or even Teen Mega World videos, where less effort is made to make the models attractive, but the physical attractiveness of the models is higer than the models at Young Sex Parties, and the overall quality of the videos is better than the Young Sex Parties videos.
In my opinion, the amateurish feel of the videos just means cheap production values, unattractive selection of models, cheap clothes and cheap settings.
I hope that I will find better videos at the other bonus sites in this network.
I just joined this network today, because, like you, I have been interested in a few sites in the network, and this seemed like a cheap way to get access. Since I just joined today, I have to get used to navigation at these sites. I click on a thumbnail, and instead of loading a video I want to see, I am re-directed to a site that I can sign up for. You weren't kidding when you wrote that: -Each page on the site is loaded with third party advertising.
I signed up through the Young Sex Parties site, but it's all part of the same network, I assume.
I think your description of the network/site is very accurate, from what I've seen so far. I've only watched 2 videos, but they both have a very amateur feel to them.
But I do believe there are more professionally shots videos at this network, because I've seen some of them in the past.
Do any of these sites have a simple model listing with nice-sized thumbnails to show what the models look like?
I posted a comment a few weeks back that Wow Orgasms, their newest site, has good videos that I think are new to the network. I can't swear to that, because the network has so many sites, and I certainly haven't seen all their videos. But I think the videos at Wow Porn all are new. That's currently 30 videos at the site. The update rate is irregular, sometimes one video a day, other times they might skip a few days with no updates, and then add a video.
I vote for the trantric yoga moaster where life is one long orgasm. Open your third eye, people, and swallow everything in life as it comes rushing by, to savor each moment of bliss. Who needs ejaculation? That is for pussies.
My definition (not an official definition, just my own, because I don't know how the porn industry defines the genre): Glamcore is what some people at PU have called heartcore. It's a romantic approach to hardcore porn, where the emphasis is on "soft", non-gonzo sex. It's become very popular the last few years, with sites like X-Art, SexArt, Babes, Passion HD, Joy Mii featuring attractive models, usually has soft instrumental music background, some storyline (implied) beyond a simple wham-bam-fuck of two or more hard bodies. Trying to inject a bit of eroticism or meaning beyond a simple fuck.
Like the name implies: Glamor + hardcore = glamcore.
They re-designed the preview pages for Teen Mega World.
The preview pages now show a clearer listing of some of the member sites you get access to with a membership in Teen Mega World.
They say you get access to 33 teen porn sites.
But the preview page only shows thumbnails for 24 sites.
For years, I have complained that Teen Mega World (and its member sites) do not show a clear listing of all the sites you are supposed to get with a membership in any one of the sites.
The new preview page is a much better listing than the previous one that showed a tiny thumbnail for some of their sites.
But it still does not show clearly all the sites you are supposed to get access to.
Is this a Russian or Eastern Europe thing, where you can't show clearly the sites you are supposed to get access to with a membership?
Also, the preview page seems very limited. Apart from the page listing the sites you are supposed to get, there is a page for "latest videos", "top rated girls", "categories", etc. But if you click on a thumbnail of a model you might like, instead of going to a page of the model where it lists her videos or photosets, you are directed to a signup page. The same thing happens if you click on a thumbnail of a video you might want to see a sample of: instead of a sample video, you are redirected to the signup page. You click on "Browse all our categories", and instead of a listing of the categories, you are redirected to the signup page.
I guess they want you to join their site.
But a better sales pitch would be if their preview gave a potential member the chance to see a model's page that shows a nice-sized thumbnail of the model, with her content at the network.
And it would be helpful if they included some sample videos lasting 30 - 60 seconds to show what the videos are like.
The network has a tremendous amount of videos, many of very nice quality, and I think they are missing an opportunity to showcase their goods.
I don't know a single PU member that has written they like the Metart videos. I guess it's a mental thing, but the videos at most softcore sites are really boring, no matter how attractive the models might be.
I've joined Metart a couple of times for the 1-year membership. But most of my memberships were for 1 month.
Current Member for over 1 month (at the time of review).
Pros:
-The finest softcore teen glamor site on the Internet.
-A huge amount of photosets, number of individual models, number of contributing photographers.
-Easy login.
-Long time before site timeout.
-No DRM.
-No download limits.
-I use DownThemAll download manager, which works at this site.
-Fast download speeds. I normally get 1.3 MB/sec, which is my maximum download speed.
-CCBill billing agent, which is one of the best credit card processors around.
-Search engine to allow you to search for models or photosets or photographers that you might like.
-Wide range of locations for the videos and photosets. In studios or houses, in fields, forests, at lakes or oceans or beach, they pose their lovely models to best advantage to show off these beauties.
Cons:
-The cons are basically minor. This is without a doubt the finest softcore teen glamor site on the Internet.
-The sheer size of the site (number of photosets, number of models, number of videos) appears to turn some people off. Instead of appreciating the massive amount of content, many people seem to
think the site has too many photosets to go through, and that, because there are so many gorgeous gils, that the models themselves are not as attractive as they really are.
-Metart has a patent on filming gorgeous naked teens and making the videos boring and a waste of time to watch. This is something I've wondered about for years: It's just a wasted opportunity of attractive models.
-The site will disappoint those looking for midcore or hardcore action. This is strictly a softcore site. No boys are in any photosets. If there are two girls in a photoset or video, their interaction is extremely softcore. No masturbation or fondling of the other girl.
Bottom Line:
As I've stated many time in the past, this is the finest softcore teen glamor site on the Internet.
There is an amazing amount of content. The site updates with 4 to 6 updates daily, which is just amazing for a single site.
Site statistics:
Number of photosets: 12,534
Number of videos: 1,045 Movies
Number of models: 2,766 Models
Number of contributing photographers: 250
Number of photos: 1,365,839
Those are staggering numbers, that blow past any softcore teen glamor site that I'm aware of.
Metart is the giant in the field, not just in terms of quantity, but also quality. Since it's start back in the late 1990s, Metart has featured high-quality teen softcore photography from leading photographers around the world.
The photosets are offered in three sizes for both online viewing and for download:
Low definition, medium definition, high definition.
The videos can be streamed or downloaded in three definitions as well: low, medium and high.
Metart was the site I picked for my first review for PU in 2008. At that time I gave the site a score of 97. That turned out to be the highest score I've ever given to any site. Since that time, the site has only increased the number of models and photosets and photographers. I think the review I did about 4 years ago is still basically accurate today.
One difference is that the Metart live shows/live chat have changed. Metart used to offer an in-
house live chat that featured a number of girls that were live each day for a number of hours
daily. The public shows were basically free. True, you could pay for a private show, or you could tip a girl during her public show. But it was basically a free source of entertainment, and the girls were friendly, and the shows were not designed to maximize the amount of money the members would pay to watch the show. That seems almost quaint today. Most live shows I've seen recently try to get the members to pay to watch the girls perform.
Metart no longer has the in-house live chat shows. Instead, they offer a link to a commercial live chat program designed to make money off the members. I believe it's cheaper to go to a topless bar than to watch a private live cam show.
Lately, the site seems to have loosened their rules, and allow two girls to kiss in a photoset or video, but the kisses are almost chaste. The sample video in the preview pages gives a false impression the site has erotic videos. It's true the videos inside are of naked girls, and many of the models are attractive. But I can't emphasize enough how boring these videos are.
I complain about the boring videos. But because of the massive photoset content, the high quality of the photos, the number of photographers that contribute to this site, the site deserves its reputation as best in breed of teen softcore glamor sites. I gave the site a score of 97 about 4 years ago, and the site has only improved since then, adding more content, trying to make using the site easier to use over time, changing the default filenaming system to make the filenames more descriptive, and in other ways they try to make the site more user-friendly.
I am giving the site a score of 99.
How could they improve this site, to give it a perfect 100?
That would be a fantasy project:
1. They could delete almost all their
videos, and hire whoever shoots the videos at X-Art or the Diesel Access network. But that would mean a change in the Met-art philosophy, which stresses softcore porn.
2. They could send their models over to my house, where I could tell if their models are really as attracive as they look. At my age (I'm in my 60s), I couldn't do that much with these girls, but it sure would be nice to try. But that might be illegal. So maybe they could hire me as a stunt cock. Again, that would mean a change in their softcore approach. But maybe they could start a "Metart meets an aging fan reality show", because reality shows are very popular today.
Unfortunately, that's only in my dreams.
For $20/month with a PU discount, this site is a fantastic bargain. Or $99/year, which is an even better deal if you join the site for a month and believe the site is worth a long term membership. I think the site is like a museum of Most Erotic Teens, which I believe is the former name of the site, from which they changed it to MET-Art. For a softcore teen site, this is truly the best in show.
PU is the only forum I belong to. Well, maybe that's not entirely accurate. I joined some Yahoo groups years ago, but it's been years since I visited any of them. So I don't know if a Yahoo group would be considered a forum, or if I would still be considered a member of any of those groups I did join. I'm not even sure if those groups still exist any more.
Thanks for your prompt and informative reply. I think a 1-month subscription would be worthwhile, if only to get the photosets that I had previously from Glam-deluxe that I seem to have misplaced.
The bonus sites would be a nice bonus, even if they are not updating.
And I wouldn't expect to Glam-deluxe to update very frequently anyway. Even when I was a member about 5 years ago, the update schedule seemed very irregular, from what I recall.
Ema/Avril A is lovely. And there are a number of other models who I particularly like at Glam-deluxe.
There is a new photo set of her at Erotic Beauty dated 2013-02-10.
That is a new photo set I haven't seen before. I am currently a member of Erotic Beauty, and the photo set was actually shot years ago. I am basing that on how she looks. Her physical appearance changed very little over the years she was active, but you can still tell that she was getting older as the years went by.
The photographer, Thierry Murrell, has used her a model since she first started out. He is the main photographer at Glam Deluxe. And he also contributed a lot of her sets to Metart.
This is her first appearance at Erotic Beauty. But like I said, this is a photoset that was shot years ago.
It's been about 5 years since I was a member of this site. Back then, they had some really cute models. Nice softcore photography. Their preview pages give a very limited idea of the site contents. They advertise the site updates twice a week. But the preview pages don't show the posted dates of any recent updates.
What is new to me is that you are supposed to get a large number of bonus sites with your membership. The bonus sites are solo model sites and multi-model sites. I believe many of these bonus sites are archive sites, that have not updated in 1 or more years. But maybe it would be worth a 1-month membership to see what these sites have. Or not.
One cute model is Ema, who has her own site named Ema's Place. The site preview states she is 18, but she is also featured at Metart, under the name of Avril A, which says her current age is 25. I think Metart tries to be more accurate about a model's age than most web sites.
Anyway, Metart has 20 photosets of Avril A, the last one posted 2010-11-19.
The preview pages for Ema's Place state weekly updates, ultra fresh content. But my guess is that the last update to the Ema's Place site was probably a few years ago. I don't think Ema (or Avril A, or whatever name you use to call her) is still active as a model.
And that's probably true of many of the bonus sites you get with a Glam Deluxe membership. Bonus sites that no longer update.
I wish that the preview pages for these porn sites would more accurately reflect the current state of these sites, instead of promising you fresh, weekly updates that you won't be getting.
LOS ANGELES — Acclaimed adult industry photographer and videographer J. Stephen Hicks passed away Feb 06 2013 .
Hicks’ career spanned more than three decades. His work appeared in nearly every adult magazine including Penthouse, Hustler, Club, High Society, Gallery and more.
Hicks’ website —DigitalDesire.com — will continue to carry on his legacy.
They use many of the same models at 18 Only Girls, Young Legal Porn (those are Diesel Access network sites) and Wow Girls and Wow Porn (the Wow sites).
The furniture and locations and settings are usually minimal for the photosets and videos.
Back in December of 2012, the 18 Only Girls and Young Legal Porn sites were using the same preview pages. A PU member noticed this, and asked if the preview pages reflected what was inside the two sites accurately. I said the public preview pages did not show what was inside each separate site, but was a mixture of what was inside both sites. And the PU member thought that was false advertising.
Since then, they have changed the preview pages of 18 Only Girls and Young Legal Porn to show what is inside each individual site.
As far as I can tell, the public preview pages for Wow Girls and Wow Porn are different, and probably reflect content that is inside each site, and not a reflection of what is in both sites combined.
I think rearadmiral brings up an important point: For a collector, the search for porn is just as important as the porn you collect. I know I spend far more time looking for good porn than I do looking at it, especially with videos. Photosets are much easier to collect, because there are so many excellent sets at different sites. But with videos, you can look and look through average or poor videos before you find a few that are worth collecting.
I'm not an IT professional by any means. I can turn a PC on and off, and that's about the limit of my tech knowledge. (I can also click a mouse at the screen, and hope that will accomplish whatever it is I want to do).
But CCBill is one of the better payment processors, in my opinion. I've always had a good experience dealing with them. They send confirming emails when I subscribe or cancel a membership, which seems to be rare today. And it's nice to be able to search their site for membership information.
I don't like random passwords. But aren't those a function of the paysite, and not the credit card biller?
I certainly understand your frustration. But instead of blaming CCBill, the problem seems to me more with the paysite. The few times I ever had to contact CCBill customer support, it seemed to me I got courteous agents who tried to be helpful. CCBill can only do so much, they are only a billing agent, they don't have complete control of the account.
I've had problems with paysites in the past. But I don't blame CCBill for those problems. I think CCBill is a positive factor for me in joining a site, because I know that it will be easy to cancel a membership.
I was a member of this site years ago. There were some photosets that seemed, to me, more erotic than the usual Metart set. Maybe because the number of photos per set was smaller, and that seemed to imply greater selectivity in choosing the photos to be included in a set. The sets with Victoria were especially erotic.
When you write that you bought a longer subscription, how long do you mean? The only subscriptions I see are the 1-month and the 1-year. Did the site impress you enough for a 1-year subscription?
I agree with Jay G, except that now I'm in my 60s, I don't think 40s is all that old. But even in my teens, I didn't really think 40s was "old age", just a lot older than I was. Old age back then were my grandparents, who were probably in their 60s or 70s, with white hair and all.
The content of the two sites is similar. But I believe that each site has its own exclusive content. What I mean is, the content of each site is exclusive to that site. They do not share content (although both sites do use the same models).
