I had a chat session with RK support and they told me there is a 10gb per day download limit, and download managers are prohibited. The 10gb limit is also in their Terms of Use page. Maybe this is new since you left your comment, but I just wanted to clarify this.

Just a clarification (of sorts): I am seeing mixed information about whether or not download managers are *allowed*, not just effective. I received word from RK support that download managers are NOT ALLOWED and can result in a ban. It's certainly possible that this info is incorrect, but i just wanted to update that this is the word directly from RK. They really don't want you to have their content, it seems.

Pros: |
+ Excellent content, some of the best in the industry
+ Excellent video quality
+ A ton of content, very diverse
+ Easy to navigate
+ Seriously, some of the performers are outrageously hot
+ Recently launched a beta redesign that is much better |
Cons: |
- Download limit of 10GB per day. Not a huge deal but considering they refer to their trial membership as "limited", I would expect the full membership to not be.
- Slow downloads. I'm currently downloading one video from RK, and one from PornPros. PP is averaging close to 3Mb/sec. RK is averaging around 400kb/sec. That's just ridiculous.
- Download managers are not allowed. Authentication times out (even with the "remember me" box checked) so if you try to queue up more than one download, usually only the first one will complete, the rest will fail with an authentication error. For me this is a dealbreaker. Especially with such slow downloads. When I visit the site, I usually want to download a few videos. To do that, the expectation seems to be that I will sit around and download them one by one, even though they each sometimes take an hour. Nope.
- Roadblock ad: every time I log in, I have to decline an offer to get to the pain page |
Bottom Line: |
I really, really want to love this site. The amount, quality, and diversity of the content is hard to overstate. Based on content quality alone, this should be a top site. Unfortunately it is heavily encumbered by restrictive policies and slow downloads. I have been a member off and on for a couple of years, and I have finally gotten fed up enough to just cancel and be done with it. It's frustrating to see content that's so good, but so hard to get. They did just launch a redesign, which is currently in beta. I really, really hope this is part of a larger overhaul that sees the site come into line with some of its competitors. |

Pros: |
+ Models are attractive, so there's that, i guess. |
Cons: |
- No downloads (LOL)
- Much content is available on other sites
- Some network sites claim to be user-submitted videos, which is clearly false since most of them are recognizable performers
- No response to support requests
- No cancellation form
- No response to chat request for cancellation
- Have to call and wait on hold to cancel, where they try to sell you other memberships |
Bottom Line: |
I don't know what else to call this site but a scam. Ok, a joke. I can call it a complete joke. I wish i could give it a score of zero. |

Pros: |
+ Large selection of Japanese adult video titles. |
Cons: |
- Titles are expensive compared to sites with monthly subscriptions (about $10 per title).
- Subscription services are per "channel" (studio). A single channel costs $20-30.
- Downloads are DRM-encumbered WMV files. No. Just no.
- Mac users need a special player for just this site (LOL). |
Bottom Line: |
If you don't mind having to use a specific player that totally sucks and as of this review isn't even working, and you don't mind having your right to view content that you paid for "managed" by a site which may or may not even stay in business (leaving you unable to watch ever again even though you have it and paid for it), and you are a fan of JAV (all titles here are censored with a digital mosaic BTW), and you don't mind the price, you will probably like the large variety of titles. Personally, I bought one title from this site and will never, ever do it again. Check out JAVModel instead. It's cheaper (monthly subscription, not per title or "channel") and DRM-free.
Note that in my review I state that I'm a current member. I do not have a monthly subscription to any channel, but you must have a user account in order to authenticate and watch the downloaded videos. Since the player isn't even working now, and I'm not putting more time and energy into trying to get DRM'd videos working, I will probably just delete the videos I bought and cancel my account. Lame. |

And, as if to prove my point, I just had about 15 downloads queued. I've given up on streaming from this site, so i download everything in order to preview. My internet connection was interrupted. When I reconnected, every single one of my remaining downloads failed (403). Now, if I want them, I have to find the video for each one, and try again. This site is a complete fucking joke now.

In my experience the videos are exclusive. I have been a member of this site and Seventeen Video, and have not found any overlap. Eventually most of these scenes end up released on one of the numbered My Sexy Kittens DVD volumes. And much of the Seventeen stuff ends up released on one of that label's many DVD titles (Sporty Teens, etc). They do seem to be related, but they don't seem to be releasing content in both places.
To the original reviewer: Do the pics have Zips available yet? Before I could not find a good way to download the pics at all. Also, did you have any issues with download speed/reliability? Just wondering if they have improved in that department. I seem to remember this was not a problem before, but the last few times I have checked for improvements it has been worse and worse.

Yeah I hear you about the HD thing. I have a large HDTV i like to watch stuff on, so I am always happy to see HD content available. The fact that they keep it streaming-only just frustrates me, I don't like paying for content I can't keep, and I think this kind of control is a losing game for the studios. I kind of just don't want to give them my money. But that's me.
As for the navigation, it does seem to have improved a bit. But after spending some more time on the site, I agree with you both - it's still pretty frustrating. It's inconsistent as you mentioned, and also i have not been able to find a way to search or browse content from all network sites. For example, if I am looking for content from a particular performer, I have to run a search on every single site. I'd much rather see something similar to Naughty America, Porn Pros, etc, where you can search by site OR you can search the whole network.

I will add that at the special rate of $9.95 available through thebestporn.com, it is still worth joining. I didn't feel that this discounted price should affect my overall rating though. If that discount is still available when you are considering signing up, I would probably still recommend it, just don't expect to come out of it *owning* any HD content.

Yes, this is what their tech support told me as well. Didn't work for me. From the very beginning I was logging in through the site I originally joined, and following links form there to the other sites. I was very careful about this when going through it with tech support. No amount of cookie clearing, restarting, re-logging in etc would totally fix the problem. It would only shift around which sites were accessible and which weren't. It may have somehow been my browser, but since I use the current stable, public version of Firefox, that seems somewhat unlikely. I am fairly knowledgeable about these kinds of issues and I really found it puzzling! Again not a deal breaker, just weird and a little annoying.

Pros: |
+ Tons of content, much of which is very high quality compared to other high volume DVD sites
+ Frequent updates (seems like at least one per day usually)
+ Devil's Film studio content tends to be very high quality with good looking girls
+ Newer scenes include HD streaming content which is very nice
+ Easy cancellation. Just sayin'. |
Cons: |
- Download speeds are inconsistent, often just stopping, generally only for a few seconds but sometimes for long enough to time out.
- Downloads are WMV only
- Using a download manager I get a lot of 400 errors. This seems to be an issue of overzealous security, but this is not covered in their collection of 8 FAQs so who knows...
- No zips for image sets (though the image sets are pretty weak anyway and clearly not the focus)
- File names are not helpful (eg 7080_02_big.wmv), expect to rename each file if you like to keep your collection organized.
- DEALBREAKER!!! HD content is streaming only. This may not be as much of an issue for some, but for me this pretty much does it in. These control freak studios (see also: Digital Playground) need to realize that in the current market, those of us who are willing to pay for content should perhaps be accommodated, not punished by having the good stuff withheld. |
Bottom Line: |
If you don't care about HD content, or don't mind streaming it, this is a good choice for a variety of niches in a fairly well organized, mostly searchable format, as long as network conditions are good. Newer scenes are streamable in HD, and older scenes are still pretty good quality.
However, if like me you are looking for content that looks great on your big fancy HDTV, aren't turned on by buffering screens, and/or don't want to reward studios for trying to control piracy by simply not letting customers have what they want, you will be frustrated. Combine this with downloads that often seem to fail due to having an incorrect security key, and I get the impression that Devils Film cares more about protecting their content than providing it. As long as this is the case, I will not be coming back. |

Agreed. That being said, I do think they are doing better than some others, and I am hopeful that more improvement will come. At least they are not going the route of studios like Digital Playground, who would rather you stream everything and download nothing...

Just a quick follow-up: today I am having a 100% failure rate on photo gallery zip downloads. I figure either fix it or don't offer it.

Updated: |
02-21-11 09:20pm (Update History)
Reason: Encountered a significant negative: download keys expire quickly, so no download managers
|
Pros: |
+ Large amount of content
+ Some very hot girls
+ Decent set of options for videos. All scenes are streamable (Flash) and downloadable ( multiple formats)
+ New videos are in HD, a key area where a lot of the "reality"-type, episodic sites are beating most of the more studio-based sites. the 720p versions look great on my HDTV.
+ Zip downloads for photos (when they work, which is rare)
+ Current price of $9.99/mo is hard to beat |
Cons: |
- Not friendly to download managers - I am only able to queue about 5 scenes before they start failing with expired key notices. For some reason this is even worse with photo zips (seems like the keys expire very quickly)
- Inconsistent and sometimes laughably low download speeds. I am currently downloading at about 24KB/s
- Server seems to stop responding an awful lot, but usually just waiting a few seconds and reloading will get it going again.
- Zip files often fail to download. More often than not, I get a sorry.txt file instead saying "wrong security key"
- Navigation is pretty bad, particularly for images. No links back to the scene itself, links to the zip files are only present on individual images, so if (like me) you are only looking for zips, not viewing individual images on-site, it might take a while to figure out the zips are even available. |
Bottom Line: |
There is some good content on here, and with newer scenes in HD, I think the future looks promising. Some navigation improvements would help, but the existing ability to browse by DVD, scene, model, tags, and categories keep this from being more than a minor gripe. The connection problems are extremely frustrating, but the low price keeps that from being a deal breaker (if only barely). At the current price, I can definitely recommend this site. When/if the price ever goes back up, some improvements might be necessary to justify it. One minor gripe that i didn't feel like was worth making a "con" of - i wish these sites with single scene downloads would include the model's name in the filename! It is very rare that I think "I am in the mood for scene 3 from '8 Simple Rules 3'" - no, I think "I want to see Mindy Lynn, what scenes do i have?" but... maybe this is just me. Not worth a con, just sayin'. Save me some time: put more data in the filename! Bottom line: recommended, especially at this price. Not without flaws, but i intend to keep my membership active.
EDIT: I don't know if this is new or I just didn't encounter it before, but the inability to queue downloads in a download manager is a major con in my book. Now i have to go back and find all of those scenes again or just forget about it. Frankly i think docking 5 points is the very least I can do. |

Interesting, yeah that's exactly what I've done, but it's still spotty. Tonight FuckStudies is the single site I can't access. It's not awful now that I know it changes, I can just kind of rotate :/ They really do have some great content...

|
Pros: |
+ Quality video (would love HD options but not bad)
+ Thorough: newer content has videos, stills, and screens, all downloadable
+ Newer scenes downloadable as WMV or QT
+ File name includes movie title |
Cons: |
- RECYCLED CONTENT
- No really good central spot for finding updates
- Older scenes have no full-scene DL
- Older scenes difficult to download even clips from
- Somewhat repetitive content |
Bottom Line: |
I have been a member off and on for a couple years now. I reviewed them very favorably before despite a few annoying flaws. But my most recent trip back there has been seriously disappointing. Most "new" content is recycled. Not from other networks, but from these network sites. I already have most of this content, because I downloaded it last year. I hope they start producing new content again, but until then I won't be going back. |

|
Pros: |
+ Some great content, especially older scenes
+ Newer scenes are pretty decent resolution (don't have any on hand to see exactly what it is, can't currently download to check - see cons) |
Cons: |
- IMPOSSIBLE to browse. The site only allows one connection, and I can only browse for a few minutes before being locked out. If I open too many photos in a row, for example, pages stop loading until some time has passed.
- Older scenes no longer have full scene downloads. WTF? Why take a step backward on this, esp when most of you content is all over the web (illegally of course) for free???
- No zip files for pics, pics stored/named bizarrely so you can't even get them with a download tool
- When you do manage to get a download started, the speed is pretty terrible |
Bottom Line: |
I've left and rejoined this site many times since its launch, and it just gets worse and worse. It's really a shame, because some of the content is amazing. But it seems like they do everything they can to keep me from getting to it. I've been trying to download ONE SCENE for weeks now, but I keep making the mistake of checking out a few updates first, which gets me promptly blocked. I don't see how a site like this can stay in business. As I stated earlier, much of their content is freely available - I prefer to pay for my content, but it almost seems like they'd rather I find it elsewhere.
If they ever decide to make it easy for members to get the content they paid for, I'll re-review. For now, canceling my subscription. |

I'm not sure if there's still a daily download limit, because to be honest I haven't had the patience to download much of anything at the speeds I'm getting. If i find out I'll post another reply.
