Seems odd, do videos play at non-porn sites like YouTube or CNN or something? I don't think it would be an issue with Java unless you accidentally removed some other stuff too. I've never had a problem playing videos without Java, you could perhaps reinstall the browser or something just in case removing java somehow screwed up something.
Maybe try fewer concurrent DLs? I wish I had a connection that would get me 2MB/s, best I ever seem to get is 1.5 or so, I hate the ISPs around these parts.
Hey messmer, there was some other site that did this, but I can't seem to recall which it was, TeenDreams or something? If you look at the file location it has some really long list of characters with your IP address in it, and this list of characters seems to change after a while. Perhaps there is some workaround for this issue, but I haven't come across one.

Pros:
-Very large collection, with a pretty wide of content
-A good number of attractive ladies
-Excellent price when I subscribed ($5), but the TBP price is still great
-I like that many of the sites have some type of setup, rather than straight gonzo
-No DRM
-No download limits that I encountered
-Download speeds typically good, I got 1.5MB/s using a download manager which is my connection max
-Download managers work (I used DTA), the most I could seem to get was two concurrent downloads, although there are some issues, see cons.
-Good navigation, scenes are tagged, there is a search function that works better than most sites I have used, as well as comments (which seem rarely used), favorites, and forum
-Network updates frequently, 15 times in the last week, 65 times in the last month
-Camerawork is generally good, at least compared to their American competitors, not as many lingering closeups, long shots of the guy’s face, etc
-Cont. in BL
Cons:
-As others have said, too many fake/large breasts
-Ads on login are annoying
-Lower price for the first month with a vastly increased price thereafter, seems to punish those that want to stay around for a while (or take advantage of those that forgot to cancel)
-Though the tags are nice, and being able to sort through all the scenes using their ‘Porn Finder’, they are a bit overly ambitious with some tags (petite as far as I know doesn’t just mean short)
-Download mangers work, but they do file location shifting so if you queue up too much stuff you will get file location errors
-Older videos are poor quality, although they appear to be remastering some of this content
Bottom Line:
Pros Cont.
-Scenes are generally well done, little abusive male talent, not much jibber-jabber from the cameraman, they do well in this area where so many other hardcore American sites fail miserably
BL:
Though I generally dislike American hardcore porn sites these days, I think this might be the best of the bunch. Where so many others fail in so many ways (aweful camerawork, horribly annoying male talent, iffy business practices), this one seems to do a fair bit better than average in all of these areas. I think for the price, it is definitely one worth joining for at least a month now and again if you are into hardcore porn.
This site is somewhat softer than some might like, so if you are looking for a harder edge (more anal, more abusive behavior), you are probably better off trying a different site. But, I would imagine most that are in to this type of videos would be reasonably satisfied with their purchase.
There are a few things the site could do better, as listed in the cons. I found the tagging to be highly inconsistent, listing women with C-D cups as small breasted, a few that I am pretty sure have fake breasts are ‘natural’ (although I’m no expert), and general misuse of some categories – which is annoying for someone who is a fan of small framed models and keeps getting large breasted results. It would perhaps be nice if you could select more than one category (for example petite and natural would have been greatly appreciated) or if you could select a “not” category.
I did not experience any of the dead links messmer mentioned, so perhaps this is resolved, or perhaps it is only in the MILF sections (see his reply to my review).
If you are interested in hardcore American porn, I would probably join this network over any of the other options (BangBros, RK, PornPros), as with all of those, I have gotten so frustrated that I just let my subscription lapse without returning after the first week. While there are some areas they could improve, like having a bit more user interaction on scenes, labeling better, removing some of the ads, I think it is generally the best of the American hardcore networks.
I said 'other', as like pat I think it is a bit more towards the cheating side on the spectrum, but perhaps not outright cheating, especially if you keep going back to the same model and there is significant interaction.
I have never really considered joining a Jules site, the stuff I have seen of his always seemed a bit too 'hard' for me, but perhaps I should consider it, as most of the recent places I have joined have been pretty disappointing...
Like RustyJ, I usually just look at what is on the front page, from time to time I will search the forum to see if a topic I am curious about has been previously discussed.
I hate the word cunt, also I there was some riley brooks scene where she said the n-word a bunch - deleted that crap and most of her other stuff. racists aren't sexy.
Thanks lk2, its not that I was all that interested, I generally don't like cam sites, they always seem like a scam to me for some reason (if I want to tip, I'll go to a nudy bar, thanks). I was more concerned that we may be getting charged for it. Thanks again for all the effort looking into it.
In case anyone was going to join this site, I would play around a bit on the site before paying, if you backout from some screens the price will drop to $19.99, also if you get to the join screen from different locations you get different prices.
Didn't they used to have a much more significant preview, for some reason I always come back to this place even though I am often disappointed.
did you get charged anything for this lk2, or is it just a cam site that requires you to pay-to-play? I also took advantage of the deal, but couldn't find any such email amongst all my spam, and I don't see anything on epoch. You would think they would tell you about these things when you signed up or something.
Like I said in my reply, I agree this is typical of American sites these days, and I believe many here have complained about it at others as well - I don't intend to pick on this site exclusively, I'm sure many of my reviews of American sites have the same complaint. I agree this site has a lot to offer, and I generally like it (aside from using flv on some of their videos and changing video locations to restrict download manager use) but I think to many knowing off the bat 50% of it is crap you wont ever be interested in is a bit disappointing (not that I ever really download more than 10-20% of any of site).
With regard to the large breasted comment, I tend to put large/fake in the same category, although fake is definitely worse, as I am not a fan of either and this site has a tendency to have many of both (once again, as do most American porn sites). I guess this is why I join mostly euro sites lately - I'm sure many would gripe that all the women are flat in sites I enjoy, and I would take that as a valid complaint from their perspective, even if a bit hyperbolic.
You must admit though hodayathink, for many 50% fake is a very large percentage (and people are prone to hyperbole about these types of things), additionally beyond the 50% fakes there are many natural large breasted women. Not to say the site doesn't have its fair share of natural models, my impression of this place is always "christ how many fake/large breasted women are at this place"? I guess it is probably just typical of American porn sites these days for the most part though...
