Thanks, calculation follows:
51min 16sec = 3076 sec
4,675,992,829 bytes = 4,675,992,829 * 8 bits = 37,407,942,632 bits
So we have average bitrate = 37,407,942,632 / 3076 = 12,161,230 bits/sec, or approximately 12MBit/s . It is indeed HUGE (Asstraffic has about 8MBit/s); on the other hand, higher bitrate does not always guarantee higher quality, so it's a pity that Brazzers don't have an HD sample for public download, so everybody could compare their quality.

If you can tell me (for the same file) it's size in bytes (megabytes, gigabytes) AND it's length in minutes, I can easily calculate it's bitrate. Thanks in advance.

Do you know what kind of bitrate they have? Or at least can you tell how long one single file is (in minutes) and how large it is (in gigabytes)?

With AssTraffic colors already being IMHO vastly oversaturated, I can't say it's a good thing if somebody has even more saturated colors.

And you see that "video freezes" as an ADVANTAGE for Brazzers?? No comments.

Oh, so not only their marketing, but also their programmers went downhill recently; doesn't look too good for them :-(. Still, if they refunded money, it's not a bad sign (most of the sites won't bother at all with refunding and even with answering e-mails these days :-(( ).

I agree, that's why I've put their ranking not as 50, but as 75 :-).

> I have to ask how you've missed all the comments and reviews about this site...
I didn't really miss them, but there are two reasons why I still wrote this comment:
1. Even after reading reviews, I didn't expect it to be THAT bad.
2. with average PU rating being in 85+ range, I don't think it is yelled loud enough :-).

> As for Ass Traffic, it is a site that I was vaguely familiar with before but had never had an interest in membership. Now after having had a look they do indeed shoot vids in 1080p so it probably does match Brazzers offer from that standpoint.
Thanks for comment, but did you REALLY compare Brazzers stuff with Asstrafic HD samples (I think they do have HD sample for free)?
> legitimate beefs with the Brazzers model that I do agree with. First if...
VERY FIRST, they MUST tell RIGHT ON THEIR HOME PAGE that all the HD they're telling about on their home page (like "NOW IN FULL HD" and "Join now and embrace the future with the best HD experience") will NOT be available for the price they're asking for. Do you think THIS kind of stuff (telling user "Join now and embrace the future with the best HD experience", and THEN, when he clicks there and 'Joins now', PAYING them money they're asking, to ask MORE for this very 'HD experience' they've just promised and he just paid for") is fair?? This is CHEATING (or MISLEADING advertisement AT THE VERY LEAST), and IF I would join them because of HD they advertise, I would FOR SURE ask my bank to revert transaction.
Is there a chance of them stopping this kind of CHEATING of THEIR OWN USERS? I don't think so, unless they will get hit by reversed transactions because of it (which I hope for).

1. Are you sure their stuff is really better than HD from AssTraffic? I doubt it (and AssTraffic is NOT charging anything extra for them, and DOES provide good download speeds).
2. WHOLE 100% of your reply is EXACTLY what their support / webmaster would say in reply to user ranting about their newer policies (ESPECIALLY passages like "if you still want to get the HD vids you have two ways to do so. Purchase the credits, or remain a member for 6 months."). Rather strange, isn't it?

Thanks for warning, I need to double-check my credit card bill (they didn't overcharge me for 1100, but a few bucks could have slipped without me noticing it). But if they DID charge for something which didn't happen, I really think it will be THEM who will be in trouble, not ME. My bank is usually pretty customer-friendly when disputing credit card charges (yes, they ask lots of questions, especially "Did you already try to contact the merchant?"), but after all they are doing their job pretty good.

Putting video encoding quality aside and concentrating on the content itself (and anyone paying attention to my rants all over PU will know that it is content itself what matters to me :-)), I will say that from what I've seen to date (which admittedly is too little yet to form reliable opinion), they're MUCH less boring and repetitive then MOST of the sites out there. Just one example of creativity not to be found elsewhere: session of underwater sex in scuba diving gear (from BigTitsInSports); for me it's a clear sign that their production team does indeed care about the footage they're producing.
And BTW, I'm pretty sure that ANY adult web site with regular updates is BOUND to be repetitive. While it is sad, but there aren't too many ways to vary adult scenes :-(. Give me ANY site and I'll make the very same "repetitive content" argument about it. And comparing Brazzers to other networks (like, for example, FilthFreaks or Jerk-Off Pass), IMHO Brazzers are MUCH less repetitive.
Their deceitful marketing is a completely different story, and I'm completely on your side in this regard.

> And yet, they must be doing something right - people keep going back.
Not sure about the "adult industry", but in other areas it's common to have marketing guys fairly separate from the "production" guys. So it seems to me that Brazzers have good content production team (these are the guys who're "doing something right") and horribly greedy marketing team (which I'm pretty sure will backfire sooner rather than later).

For some reason I don't really trust you; review is way too close to poorly worded e-mail spam.

It would be indeed "cross-sale" and "special offer" if checkbox is NOT pre-checked (like reputable sites and processors like CCBill do). If it is pre-checked, I name it swindling; sure, you can invent your own names. BTW, I'm pretty sure that my issuing bank will side with me in disputing this charge if I will ever fail to notice such small print (on payment page I was selecting some specific price, and was charged a different one, with amount actually being charged being NEVER shown to me; that should be enough for bank, VISA or court to revert this charge and put fines as well as punitive damages to processor and/or merchant). Disclaimer: opinions here are just my personal opinions and shouldn't be taken as legal advice.

Wow, thanks for the information, but how can I see if any of the other users also has such suspicious "computer sharing"? Or you just automatically suspend them?

To make a change in a pattern of our recent disagreements :-), I should agree with you here - it does look suspicious. There is also just one thing that puzzles me - how one of these guys managed to get "trust" rating by Marianna? Maybe she should check if her password was stolen/guessed?

some cases, he doesn't even plan on putting them on the site for
months and months. I think it's a very dishonest practice, and I will never join again because of it.
I agree that this practice is dishonest, but what else would you expect from the guy saying "Tricked into sucking for the camera" on his main page (which is either lie or crime) and upselling right from his home page?

Thanks, though I think this comment is more a review than a comment, and would be quite a good review :-), so I think you should start writing reviews rather than comments; IMHO it would be a valuable addition to the site.

In addition: there is another site I've just run into and will think of joining; it is Lady-Sonya. From info in public areas, she does look more as a powerful (and sexy) woman than a dom; she also does seem to do some switching.

Women being powerful but not dominating? Don't know of such sites, as well of sites featuring 'switches'. So if you'll find such a thing out, please let me know too :-).
As for more mild action, you may want to take a look at meninpain.com (not all action there is exactly mild, but on average it is quite mild compared to others). Also some of models from there are indeed switches (and several were featured both as doms - on meninpain and as subs - on other kink.com sites such as sexandsubmission, 2 examples of such models are Annie Cruz and Isis Love, but there are more I'm pretty sure); while it is not exactly a site about switches, getting some clips both sites (with the same model being dom and sub) can be kind of close.
PS I was a bit afraid of writing yet another positive thing about kink.com because somebody can say I'm affiliated with them which I'm definitely not; it is just that in 'Safe Sane Consentual' BDSM niche very few can compete with them (with one notable exception being SlavesInLove).
