I think the ladyboy niche could always use new quality sites. Honestly, I'd say I've only found two sites that does this niche right with quality plus quanity in Lb-69/shemale.asia or Ladyboy Player. However, I'd say there are enough TS sites out there from the Americas. There are a few ladyboy sites out there that come close but really do fail in deliverence or are just old and not updated. There just really is not enough high res photography or videos in at least 1280 X 720 for ladyboys, I've found quite a lot for the Americas. But, obviously this site is not even there with that but I would still love to see a new ladyboy site that can come even close to the two listed above. There are a few ladyboy sites that I cannot find reviews for or know enough about that I have considered taking a plunge, I'm just so worried these days of doing this before I get enough info.
I think I got an email offer for this site and I remember thinking it may be a quality site after the sites get their 'feet wet' but I have so much TS content from the Americas that I'd have to reconsider without a quality ladyboy site in the network.
The site tour allows you to view everything they have. One thing I kind of liked that J Sex Network and SexAsian18 don't feature is these are obviously scenes from DVD's but you can download just the scenes with the models instead of the whole movie if you want just that particular model's scene. It looks like the more mainstream stuff of JAV plus they have what appears to be a solid uncensored area. Also, you get access to bonus sites. Anyone been a member and care to let me or anyone know about it? Anyone heard anything?
Interesting facts, I think I have just found a new site to add to my laundry list. But, I could not find any information on exclusivity. I'm guessing they are because Asian TS is exclusive. I may email them if no one can has a clue on PU.
I found this to be the only basic burden of the site, that and the videos being a bit underpar in terms of technicalities. It's a shame that this site and Anilos are the only two basic good sites for mature content. Oh, and that Karups one too I guess? Well keep me posted if there are any stand out updates but until that, I think I may just be happy with my monthly purchase until next year or so.

Pros:
- Exclusive content of younger models in solo masturbation, insertions, gaping, speculum, lesbianism, and peeing.
- All models are shaved and quite petite, these models have breasts on the smaller size.
- Updates daily with mixed content.
- No DRM.
- No Download Limit.
- Picture sets are updating at excellent resolution (~3504 X 2336 or 1600 X 1067). These vary with updates, going a bit higher or lower. Older sets are all in the smaller size. All available in zip format. Watermarks are non-intrusive.
- Videos are updating in true HD quality in 3 different formats being DivX, mp4, and WMV (1920 X 1080, ~8000 kbps or 1280 X 720, ~4000 kbps). Older videos are being updated to higher res or just available in two formats (720 X 540, ~3200 kbps or 640 X 480, ~2750 kbps). There are other options as well, a lot of variation.
- Older stuff is being remastered to formats above, so the site is constantly updated the old with the new.
- Director's Blog area for news.
- Model Index.
Cons:
- While navigation is easy, the site design has about 4 different formats that it has used in the past. These all stayed how they were at the time, so you get pages of all variations. A minor flaw, but these should all stay consistant for easier viewing.
- While I stated the fact that these models are petite and small breasted as a pro, keep this in mind when you join. There is a sister site, ALS Angels for more voluptuous models.
- While both the older photos and videos are being updated, the bulk of the material is still in the older formats at the time of this review. Just keep this in mind.
- There are a lot of videos of behind the scenes and photoshoots. While I see a purpose of these (more in bottom line), it is worth mentioning.
- The site updates models based on a voting system which is great, but in the older content it makes for downloading the picture set zips a bit awkward. Sometimes you get zips with only 1 or 2 photos in it or 2 to 3 different zip files for one set.
Bottom Line:
ALS Scan has been around for awhile. The site boasts plenty of content at more than 70,000 pictures and over 1 TB of videos. Featuring mostly small breasted euro models, the majority of the models are extremely cute in nature. While I personally like my models a bit bigger in general, I cannot knock the site for wanting these type of girls here. The directors appear to create such a comforting aura with these girls resulting in extremely quality content that is both sexually arousing for the models and fun. It's one of the first sites in awhile that the models appear to be enjoying themselves for real and not just putting on a show for money.
The videos in the new format are the BEST I've ever seen to the date in terms of quality of clarity. Finally, a site using a true HD camera with the right compression. However, these files can get extremely large. But, it's worth it in my opinion. There are 3 styles of video content. These being BTS & photoshoots, solo masturbation, and lesbian scenes. The BTS & photoshoots are not there exactly for the pure sexuality, but I found these to be a great glimpse in to the model's personality. These display everything from gaping, speculum, peeing, to staged masturbation or lesbianism. The masturbation scenes are very well done in terms of the sexual energy and camera work. As stated before, there is a comfort level that these directors produce which makes for these models truly enjoying exploring their bodies. There is just a raw feeling in most of these videos that really struck me the right way. These videos are clearly potraying a young woman enjoying herself sexually in a real fashion. The lesbian scenes are quite raw as well. The models used for these scenes really appear to enjoy each others company and are truly attracted to each other. Lots of kissing and smiling, but intense fisting, fingering, and licking as well. I really don't gravitate towards lesbian content but I found these videos to be quite impressive.
The photography is top of the line and features mostly simulated masturbation and or extreme close ups or long shots filled with tons of props for insertions. The newer high res show off the model extremely well and are not photoshopped for fakeness. But, even the lower res photos look good. You will probably be downloading a few of these because the high res photo zips can be as large as the videos at ~500+ MBs for a scene.
Overall, with the mix of awesome photos and extremely great videos, this site is something else. The solo model content mixed with the girl-girl action is solid. Plus, there are scenes at vacation spots with 5+ featured models which are some of the best content I've ever seen at any site so far. I love those scenes. The site may be lacking in site design and the older content not being up to par with the new updates, but with the attempt to reformat those I believe these cons can be overlooked. The site is bringing new models in and upgrading the old. Recommended!
I'm in the getting there stage. While I enjoy photography from sites, I'm already to the point that the artsy stuff like MetArt does not get me aroused at all. While I can appreciate the vision and what they are, as far as getting me aroused I can fully say that I need harder stuff for that. Clearly, I'm sure this is from just seeing harder content (either softcore or hardcore) in general so much. However, even the harder softcore stuff (I.E. ALS Scan) are getting a bit on the boring side for me as well. But, not fully, somedays I can look at some of my favorite models in photography and really get excited (for a lack of a better term). Although, during these times, I usually will start with the pictures but I always end up watching videos of the model or sets eventually.
lol at the ring toss being a naked dude with a woman throwing the ring on to his erect dick.
Interesting site but I think the price is a bit high for the amount of content you get. However, thanks for bringing a site that is qoute end quote, against the grain for anyone who may be interested.
A lot of users do mention if the use of download managers is accepted. I, however, do not usually mention this due to the fact that I just use DownThemAll! from FireFox and I don't think this constitutes as a download manager that would be prohibited (it does not use multiple threads for one file or accelerates). So, I would not know to begin with if one is accepted or not. But, you can always post a reply asking most reviewers a question if they don't mention it and most will reply with an informative response, at least if they know or not. Don't be afraid to ask!
By the way, a good way to find out is to just email customer service of a site and ask. If they don't respond, well then should that not consititute the site as being shady to begin with? Hope to see more reviews soon!
Honestly, when I made this I really thought that it would be a land slide in the 18-35 range being in the 1 or 2 or the more, the better niche but am a bit suprised that the majority are saying no tattoos is better. However, the fact that the 36+ range have none so far in the more, the better niche was what I thought was going to happen. It's always fun to see in polls what people really think. This is why I love doing research when I was in college and can hopefully do more if I ever go on for my masters.
I am in the 18-35 range I put 1 or 2. I am so used to seeing tattoos in not only porn but real life that a casual tattoo here and there is so normal to me, I don't even notice really. Of course, the bigger the more anyone would notice, so yeah if it's considered one 'sleeve' (whole arm tattoo) that's a little different. But one or two on anywhere is quite normal to me so I don't mind. It's not that I prefer none to a lot, I just don't mind 1 or 2. If they have none, that's cool, if they have a lot, I can like that too. But, if I had to choose I'd honestly say I prefer none to a little than a lot.
I used these age ranges because there was a huge forum post (I think it was about fake boobs) and the tattoos thing got brought up with a few arguments that maybe younger people would be more tolerant of tattoos than older folk, just do do the normalcy of tattoos these days. So, I was interested in what the difference in opinions would be in the different age ranges. You only get 6 options in these polls to write in responses so it was limited, if I had a choice and with more options I would probably do an 18 - 25 range, 26-35 range, 36-50 range, then 50+ but obviously that would be redundant and it's not like were doing scientific research here :) I just thought maybe 18-35 would be more of the 'younger generation' and maybe over 36 would be a bit in the 'older generation'. I know you were probably just being sarcastic but I thought this did owe a bit of an explanation.
Thanks for the info and by proper shoots I did mean exactly what you thought by not being video stills. You gave me everything I needed to know and I appreciate it.
In light of the recent poll and my interest in this site from before, did you ever get around to joining this site and can you give me any details? If not, that's alright but I am quite interested in the site for something different.
Just a few questions that will help me in deciding to put this site on my list of sites to join:
1. What is the resolution of the photos, you state 3 different sizes but not what the sizes are.
2. Are these photo sets proper photo shoots? If they are, are they accompyning photo shoots to the videos? Meaning, are these shoots similar in location and outfits as the videos provided?
I'll have to second that and go so far as to say 480 X 320 is NOT acceptable by any means. Maybe in the early 2000's but nowadays, the standard should be at least 720 X 480 but I will admit that by the end of this year, 1280 X 720 should be the standard and become average.
Man james4096, you seem to be in a slump in joining some poor sites lately :( I checked out your recent reviews and there are so many in the lower numbers recently. I really hope you can get to join a nice site soon, I'd love to see a positive review SOME time soon! :)
I'll want both, even with todays animation I am intrested in both. With it getting better, hey why not check it out. I don't think it would be anything to rub one out to but that's what the real stuff is for right?
This site is supposed to have a butt load of photo sets with a lot of models. Do they come in zip format? This has been on my list for an extremely long time to get photos, I figured the videos would be shit. However, since the site is so old, I figured they would get better videos as time went on. Looks like they are garbage huh? So, what's up on the photo sets, a good res with zip downloads or?
I tend to check out the users that I trust the most and find sites that they enjoyed, then use TBP for any hardline facts they may have not mentioned. If it is a site not reviewed by PU's, I always check TBP to see what they say. However, I can get sucked in to sites with no TBP or no PU reviews and comments, hence, taking a stab at it with the preview and tour alone. However, I found myself more disapointed than happy when I do this. So, I'm attempting to stay with sites with info from TBP and PU these days. I tend to find outside reviews to be overally high scored. When joining sites based on these reviews, the sources tend to overscore or be outdated and usually are pretty far off in the review than I thought. So, I stick with TBP and PU always and ignore the rest.
I do remember experiencing problems but as I stated in the comments you posted, I was just beginning to use download managers and I thought it was my fault which apparently was probably not the case. But, this was the tail end of my monthly membership (like the last week) and before that I just downloaded the old fashion way with no problems. Plus, in that review, I believe it was like the 4th or 5th one I ever wrote as a new member (I think it was like the 3rd or 4th day as a member) and I was not nearly as good as grasping the most important details or coming in to my own as to how to write a good review yet. So, I don't know if I would score it the same or include those exact details that I wrote if I wrote one now on the site.
But, that banning stuff is extremely tedious and hopefully nothing like that happens in the future in any sites you join. Plus, now others can see that this is a problem with this site if they decide to join. Lack of good customer support (let alone, any, lol?) is extremely important to state and I am glad you gave a clear concise rundown of your situation for others to grasp. Good luck in the future!
This really stinks that you never got that reply from them and the site provided such a poor experience. I think the score is fair considering what you went through and it shows that you can still be level headed and take the whole 'picture' of the site with adding your experiences vs site content/features to create an honest plus judgemental review. A good read and you are right on the photos, while being mostly non-exclusive from gravure they have a very nice collection of not only Japanese AV stars but softcore to non nude models as well. Good insights and I'm glad to be seeing you writing more reviews as of late, keep 'em coming!
While I can admit I do like videos a bit more, I do have love for photography as well. As far as this poll is concerned, I find myself being indifferent so I put can go either way. I'm more concerned with what the model is actually wearing. I've seen some extremely horrible fashion in some photography. So I suppose if what the model is wearing is cute, then either taking it off or putting it on can be equally as good. But, it's all about the beginning or end result being nudity :)
