Commentary continued
Streaming includes 2 options, high and low definition. I find that having a low definition choice is a great option since I generally stream just to get a preview. It’s less time consuming then loading the stream in HD.
To give you an idea of the playfulness of the site, the first set centers around a parody of the TV show, “Blind Date,” or more specifically, “Blind Date Goes Ersties Porn Version.” Included in the set, in addition to a parody of the game, is an interview conducted by head honcho Paulita Pappel with one of the models centering on the blind date theme. Strangely, this video is in English with German subtitles. (Some of the videos are in German with no subtitiles.) Also in the set is a video of a parody of the game show. Lastly, there’s another video of the chosen couple having sex.
Solo scenes don’t necessarily include masturbation – one called “Lap dance” simply shows a nude model breathing heavily and moaning while sort of dancing. The audio is stated to be binaural, a special audio technique like 3D. I did not test this with ear plugs and had no desire to do so. Others may find that the audio makes a big difference.
I found many of the interviews tedious and boring. On the plus side, they’re realistic, candid, cover a range of topics and sometimes funny. One model is asked the very original question about her favorite position. The response was hilarious: “Just lying down.” But really, I don’t need an exhaustive biographical interview for each model. I guess that’s why the fast forward button was created.
The site is a refreshing change from the usual in most every respect. Hopefully, San Fernando and other sites will take a cue from Ersties. Despite some flaws, I highly recommend the site for those that like this niche, more like a cross between softcore and hardcore with models (not actors!) and a crew who seem to be enjoying themselves. I am generally not such an abundance of solos and lesbians as well as softer hardcore, but I enjoyed Ersties very much. The site deserves to be praised for their innovation.

I joined over the weekend for 29.95 recurring at 35.00. I'm fairly certain that this was not a special PU discount. I experimented and went to the site directly (not through PU), no cookies, and got the 29.95 price. Among other subscriptions, they offer 29.95 recurring and 35.00 non-recurring. This seems to be aimed at everyone. Amanda, you should twist their arm for a better deal!
Elephant, this is a unique site in terms of structure, frivolity and playfulness. However, the content is not for everyone as with most any site, including me though the jury is still out. I will likely do a review in short time.
Generally speaking, I don't understand how the custom of charging the same (or more) for subsequent months makes any economic sense. I have to think that the vast majority of users download most of the content they want within a month. It's the law of diminishing returns. Why pay the same or more for subsequent months when you're getting less? I can see doing it for streaming, but that's it.

Khan, in hindsight, I've got to disagree with you here. Just because a site provides content doesn't mean it should warrant a listing on a trusted review site. That's my opinion. Better content can be found on free sites, seriously. And more importantly, this site is engaging in murky financial policies. I believe PU would be doing more of a service to members to take the listing down rather than have them experience what I have.

I'm not sure what benefit to other users a review would serve. I literally spent under 45 minutes on the site and there's not much to add then what's in the comment. And I'm not going back there because there's not much else to see and I'm afraid I'll suffer sever psychological trauma if I have to look at it again, haha. Again, still feeling my way around, but doesn't the comment serve the same warning that a review would?

No argument from me, guilty as charged. My only concern is why PU or TBP would continue to list a site with info 4 years old and more. That really is the only rationale I had for joining, the mistaken belief that if it's listed on these sites it's on the up and up. Still, mea culpa.

As lk2fireone mentioned, it was probably a pre-checked cross sell. That would have happened when you went to pay for Evil Angel and fuckbuddy was pre-checked. Most of us have fallen prey to this deceptive sale.
If you haven't already done so and you're not interested, I suggest not logging in to fuckbuddy. In addition to contacting Evil Angel, I suggest contacting webbilling.com and tell them you had no intention of joining fuckbuddy and ask for a refund. As a last resort and if you're so inclined, you can dispute the charge with your bank.

Guss's Comment
Hi Guss. There are many comments in the reviews and comment section about the difficulties with canceling on this site. Based on those comments, it seems that they make life difficult to cancel and take their time, but eventually do honor the cancellation request within a week.
Assuming you are located in the US which I believe you are, you are protected by federal banking regulations. If you paid by credit or debit card, you have further protections. While the law is not clear how much time you must give to cancel a recurring subscription, I believe the term "reasonable" applies. I would take that mean 3 business days, not 30 days.
Personally, I would sit tight - you have a month before the recurring charge is due to take place. Just make sure you have your cancellation request documented. If they charge you, dispute it assuming you used a debit, credit card, paypal or ACH. You will prevail and the bank or credit card company is obligated to issue a credit. Having said that, others have warned against disputing for the reason that you may get blacklisted. Personally, I wouldn't be concerned about this.

I'm with you on amazon. I spend a fortune with them and am a prime member in addition to prime fresh. Too bad they have bad (presidential) politics. But let's not go there. Jet has better prices on some items and carries some things that amazon doesn't. In my limited dealings with them, their delivery has been as fast if not faster than Amazon. The concept is basically the same though Jet carries only a fraction of the items that Amazon carries. Competition is a good thing.
As to how the bank allows duplicate authorizations - it's because they're for different amounts and the bank can't distinguish that it's a duplicate. Jet initially authorizes for the entire purchase. A day later, they authorize for individual purchases. For example, I purchased 3 items in my latest order. Immediately following placing the online order, they authorized the entire amount. The next day, they authorized each item separately. The bank told me that several of the authorizations were duplicates and they rejected them (I ordered 5 cases of water and apparently they tried to authorize each case separately).
I can't fault the bank - how are they supposed to know? Being a nut when it comes to these things, I called up Visa USA and asked for clarification about Visa's rules. Talk about bureaucracy! I got nowhere. I know I know, I'm an obsessive nut when it comes to these things. ;)

They need time to sharpen their pencils to write the cancellation order ;).
Not to digress.... coincidentally, I was just speaking with my bank about authorizations from jet.com - the company that aspires to be amazon.com. What a racket! It's my third time ordering from them and I keep forgetting about their ridiculous policy. They authorize all purchases twice thereby tying up available funds. The duplicate authorizations go away eventually, but that doesn't mitigate the hardship it may cause by having funds unavailable needlessly. When I questioned jet.com, I was told it was the way their system operates. Great answer! Calling my bank simply to find out if they're allowed to do this was an exercise in patience and I eventually hung up after being transferred around. I personally don't really care about the funds being unavailable - it's the principle. The experience was something out of Kafka. I don't know how they get away with it.

If you paid by debit/credit card, I would threaten to dispute. Just the mere threat of a dispute is generally enough to persuade a processor to issue a refund. At least that's been my experience. My guess is that the processor knows they're gonna lose and they are jeopardizing their status with the credit card companies, i.e., Visa Int'l or Visa USA.
I have gone through with a dispute a few times and I've always prevailed and gotten my money back. Other members say that this may cause problems in the future by getting blacklisted. I've never had such a problem.

I had problems with the player also. At the time, I think it was a little tricky with a Mac. However, I found customer support to be very helpful and we resolved the problem.

pat362's Review
Excellent review. I was rather surprised to see a pay-site review from a veteran, pleasantly so. Hot Movies was the first porn site I experienced, the first review I left on PU, albeit uninformative, and the subject of my first post in the forum. Memories.
I hadn't visited the site though for years. I traded in going to pay sites for downloads. Then I decided to go back and look at Hot Movies a week ago. Your review is a coincidence though it reaffirms my thoughts. I still had 10 minutes left on my account. I forgot how much exclusive and excellent contact it contains. I miss this site and am going to plunge into it again.
Ironically, another veteran member called me a shill after my first post where I mentioned this site (and another site). It was such an unkind welcome that if it weren't for graymane (where is he?!), I was gonna take my ball and go home. Glad I stayed.

Thank you Amanda! I'm not complaining, too much anyway. It was awfully sporty of them to charge only $1.48. I was able to download all the available scenes once I figured out the limitation. -) But yes, it should be mentioned on the trial somewhere about the minor limitation, not that it should or would prevent anyone from taking advantage of it.
Not to digress, but I do have a very legitimate complaint. When I first joined, the download button wasn't available and it seemed to be streaming only. I sent a message to them and never heard back. Bad support, boo. Later on though, the download button seemed to appear.

Thanks for responding and glad to hear the network is taking steps to improve support.
I did go the link you provided and sent a message at the time of the problem but received no response.
However, things seem to be okay now except for the extra $4.95 charge. The $29.95 charge was reversed and it's not worth the energy to fight the $4.95 charge.

I think most of us will agree that Epoch and CCBill are the gold standard. Unfortunately, we don't always have options.
Japan HDV uses 3 processors, something I never saw before. I never experienced a site that uses different processors give the user an option which one to use, but then again, I haven't been around the block as much as you. One has to play games to get to use the processor of choice, like put in incorrect credit card info with a processor that you don't want to use and hope it defaults to the preferred credit card processor. I wonder what the rationale is behind this.
In my case, I wasn't paying attention to the credit card processor being used and simply accepted the default. My bad and I'm paying for my mistake, if not monetarily then with a waste of time dealing with this now. I have to think most users don't pay attention all that much to credit card processors. This group happens to be a savvy bunch and we make a big deal about processors as we should.
On the plus side, for me anyway, I never lost a nickel. I have no issue disputing a charge with my bank. I've always prevailed in disputes and never had it backfire on me by being blacklisted anywhere. I also find that once you threaten a site or credit card processor with a dispute, they generally back off. I'm guessing that's because they don't want to lose their processing privileges.
