Well, the trial is $10 for 2 days, so it is pretty steep as far as trials go. I always used to like this site as well, it certainly seems as though it has been going consistently in the wrong direction for the last couple of years.
So, after realizing the price had changed, I figured I'd do the full access trial to see what was new. The good news is the trial is in fact full access, the bad news is I find this site to be pretty mediocre. While I think the high scores are fair, given they have some great older content, there isn't really all that much that is new that is all that good.
They "remastered" some older material to "HD", while it does look better than the sets I downloaded before a couple of years ago, it is most certainly not HD - I'm not sure why the encoded some of it at such a high bitrate with poor source material.
There is still plenty of good material here to get, however if you have been a member in the past, it probably isn't worth joining, especially given the new price.
I would post a review, but it would end up sounding pretty much exactly like exotic's. Although I would score it a bit lower, and would strongly note that the new site design is downright shitty. You can browse by model from the main DDF page, however be aware that this is usually not all the material available for that model (for older stuff you have to go to the individual site). I also fine the design of the site to be quite ugly, and there are many glitches - mismatched screenshots with sets and several models where you click on them and it says 0 sets available. Sometimes you can find sets by those models if you dig through the individual sites, but to me the whole point of joining the "mother" site is to get easy access to ALL their material.
Though I'm not a huge fan of the way 21sextury merged all their sites, they did a much better job than DDF.
This site is definitely mediocre at best. You have to be a member for 4 months to get access to Tasty Teen Video! You are better off just joining that site seperately. I made the mistake of joining with the 3-month membership figuring it would give you access to all of their sites - it doesn't! Probably should put that in the review i suppose...
See my other response for update info, should have put that in the review too!
The newest sets I saw were (m/d/y): HDteensvideo: 8/8/09 Exclusiveteenporn: 4/9/10 (appears to still be updating, or perhaps just recycling content - only 2 video sets per month) Bestfuckedteens - says 4/22/10, but I really doubt this is accurate as it appears to just display todays date no matter what
teensamateurvideo - says 4/22/10, once again I doubt it
fucking-young - newest video is 6/25/09
pearlteens - says 4/22/10, but I doubt it magic-porn.biz - newest video is 11/15/08
In general, I would say that few if any of these sites are still updating, or updating very infrequently.
These are dates listed on the site, and I couldn't really tell if they were doing any recycling as I have never been a member here before.

Pros:
-Attractive euro models
-Good video quality, 1280x720 10000 kbps, pretty crisp
-Decent selection of bonus sites, although some are only available as loyalty sites
-Photo quality okay, 1024x760 typically
-Zip downloads available
-Decent download speeds, 1 MB/sec
-Download managers work
Cons:
-Smallish collection, 100 or so videos and 114 photo sets at the time of this review
-Very poor navigation, no real search function, most video sets dont even provide a model name.
-Camerawork isn't very good in most videos
-Models don't always seem very interested
-A bit too "gonzo" for me
-Expensive for what you get
-While you get access to several bonus sites - many are either no longer updating or not exclusive
Bottom Line:
I'd say this site is acceptable, if it were a bit cheaper I might recommend it a little more highly. There are some good videos on this site that I will definitely keep, but the many negative issues with the site are quite a drawback.
When I joined you get bonus access to the following sites: HDteensvideo (144 video sets, 68 photo sets)
bestfuckedteens (36 video sets, 219 phot sets) pearlteens.com (13 video sets, 85 photo sets) - don't think exclusive
teensamateurvideo (129 video sets, 289 photo sets)
fucking-young (130 videos - most in parts only, 1000+ photo sets) - not exclusive
And several other pretty much worthless non-exclusive sites.
The navigation of all of these sites is pretty much the same, you click on photos or vidoes and bring up a list. Some are a bit more evolved, but not much. I didn't see a model index on any of the sites, or a search function. Some videos are given stupid names, but many don't even have model names.
Given the size of the sites, I am not sure why they have "loyalty" sites, as I doubt anyone ever stays around long enough to become a member, or at least they shouldn't. Especially since you don't appear to be given any kind of discount for being "loyal" and you only get like one extra site a month.
Bottom line, even though the video quality is pretty good, and there are some attractive models to be found, I'd probably look elsewhere unless there is a specific model you see in the preview that you really like.

Pros:
-Great price with the PU discount
-No DRM
-Download managers work
-Newer videos are full HD, 1280x720 3000 kbps was the best of what I downloaded. Pretty crisp even though the bitrate is kind of low for HD
-Most videos are "DVD resolution" 640x480 1500 kbps, pretty crisp even at this resolution although the older the material the worse it gets.
-Scenes for the most part have a story, this is a plus for me, some might find it a negative since often only 50% of the scene involves sex.
-Can download DVD in full for most movies
-Pretty decent sized collection, over 400 DVDs and 3000 photosets (although some of the photsets I looked at were empty)
-Photo quality is okay, most is 600x900
-zip downloads of the photosets
Cons:
-Inconsitent download speads, rarely faster than 600 kb/sec
-Site can be slow to load
-Odd navigation
-A bit too focussed on large breasted women for my tastes, but there is a reasonable variety
-Some videos not downloadable, although I would say most I tried were
-Behind the scenes stuff is streaming only
-While they have a lot of stars, the vast majority only have a couple of scenes with a select few having 10 or more scenes.
-mp4 is the only available download format
-Not much in the way of photos (even though they have 3000 sets), many girls don't have any listed and most are the same scenes as the videos
-Infrequent updates, only about 1 DVD a week and a couple of photo sets a week since I've been a member
Bottom Line:
While one might think my score is a bit high given all the cons, I think for the PU discount price, this site is definitely worth joining. It surely has its share of problems, but clearly it is a work in progress - and actually a lot better than I thought it would be given the other reviews I read here.
The site certainly has navigation issues. There is a search function available, but it is just a text search. Browsing by model can get a bit frustrating, as the model page loads a streaming movie of the most recent video by that model at the top, and loads all the DVDs, Movies, Galleries, and Promotional shoots available at the bottom, but you have to click through this list which can get annoying if the star has a ton of available content (like Kaylani Lei). One other nuisance is sometimes if you go straight to a scene no download option is available, but there is one at the page for that DVD - unfortunately the DVD download tab just lists the downloadable scenes by number so you have to remember which scene you are downloading.
One good part of the nagivation is that every scene lists a good bit of information tagged to each scene: who is in it, what action is involved, costume, positions, type of tits (natural/fake), location, body details (tats, piercings, shaved, etc.) and cumshot location. Most of these tags are clickable, however when you click them it just brings up a list of all the DVDs (not scenes) that have this tag, so clicking "natural" tits is pretty useless. Interesting concept though, if implemented a little better it could be very useful.
I didn't have any experience with customer service, so can't comment on that, the biller was CCBill for me.
Overall I'd say this site is pretty good, especially if you are a fan of any of the Wicked girls, as there is a good bit of content for all of them, the main reason I joined was price and their vast collection of Kaylani Lei videos - and the price. I found the vast majority of the content on their site to be downloadable, and not streaming only - although I am not sure how much of their archive is actually on the site. The oldest movie I saw was from 1991 (Maddams Family) and it was downloadable - although I didn't download it, so I can't comment on quality. There are 436 DVDs listed on the site at the time of this review.
Even though the site has its flaws, and far too many fake breasts, I'd still say it is worth joining for a month. I'm sure almost any user could find some content they liked that would make it worth the small price to join. However, due to the infrequent updates, I doubt it is worth being a member for more than a month.
I agree Goldfish, of the newer stuff I downloaded, some of it is pretty decent quality although nothing I downloaded was full HD. I think that the material that is lesser quality is either re-post (although I can't recall having seen it ever) or content they made a long time ago that never got posted. I haven't seen any of their material anywhere else, although that by no means shows that it is exclusive. I still think it is a pretty good site, and at least they have not gone more in the direction of their sister-site Twistys.
For $10, I figured what the hell. Unlike what others have said, I have found most of their content is downloadable, however I am not sure how much of the archive is on their site.
Download times and page load times are aweful slow, however.
Yeah, I joined about a year ago with the trial, poked around a bit realized there was nothing new and cancelled. I don't think they have added any new content in quite some time...

Pros:
-Very attractive, mostly euro models
-Good video quality 720x480 2500 kbps on most older material, 1024x576 4000 kbps on newer stuff
-No DRM
-Videos downloadable in parts or full scene
-Good mix of content: hardcore, "midcore", some lesbian, and some softcore
-Download managers work (at least for videos)
-Reasonably priced
-Okay photo quality, newer stuff is 1350x900
-Zip downloads of photosets
-Decent sized site, about 400 models
-Site seems primarily focused on videos now
-I think most content is exclusive
-Good download speeds, maxed my 7Mbps connection when using a download manager
Cons:
-No bonus content
-Poor navigation, although the site says it is version 2.0, I don't see any significant improvements from a few years ago
-No search function
-No forum, model information, or anything of that nature
-When you go to cancel you are given links to Epoch and CCbill, however I was billed through DHD media, and a link is not provided.
-Inconsitent updates, don't appear to be on a schedule, seems like 2 videos and 2 photo sets per week
-Couldn't get download managers to work for zipped photosets (although this might just be me, as I've had this problem elsewhere)
-Videos and photos are watermarked, although not terribly annoying
Bottom Line:
This site used to be one of my favorites, as it had great content from models like Belicia, Sonia Red, and Eufrat when they were younger.
However, the newer content certainly is not nearly as high quality (from model attractiveness perspective) as the older stuff in my opinion.
This day in age, most people expect some type of search function. Although they do have a model list, that is pretty much it as far as useful navigation tools. The Most Popular tab is somewhat useful, although most of the Most Popular material is older.
This site could definitely use a re-design, and work on getting models and content that meets the quality of their older material.
I didn't have any experience with customer service, although I would assume it would be pretty much the same as Twisty's.
This site is definitely worth joining if you have never been a member, however if you have been a member recently, it is probably not the best use of your money.
When you go to the join page the price that comes up is $24.95, I tried deleting cookies, using a different browser and all the usualy stuff, same price.
Do you think this site is worth hanging around for an extra month as a bonus site? Looking at the models I'm a bit undecided, seems like some of the women are pretty good looking, however there isn't a super large archive.
Eh, well I'm the only one that picked booze. So I don't sound too great either... I could probably manage building a raft on my own, but I'd need some beers! My favorite star might be fun, but I'd think you'd need a mountain of blow to keep most pornstars happy...
I'd be more concerned with my ISP tracking my behavior than the government, as though your government my be tracking data and listening to conversations I'm sure most of this data is ignored - as there are billions of people around, i'd hope they'd have more important things to pay attention to than my porn habits...
Most recent video is 8/09. Though videos are encoded at a high bitrate (8000 kbps) and typically 1280x720, I don't think the original source is HD, as the videos are not nearly as crisp as other HD sites.
Also, getting the 3-month membership does not give you instant access to any bonus content, which is stupid.
Some decent material here, but not worth the price. And the vast majority of bonus sites are crap.
70 bucks is plenty. I've gotten pissed off at sites scamming me out of like $5. But, I guess I must just be a tightwad.
Personally, I never understood the attraction to this site - especially given all the "problems" people have noted with their billing, customer service, etc. Of course, I can't stand fake breasts, so the site is just generally unappealing to me.
