I've been commenting that while I do think it is fair to charge extra, particularly for the 1080p, they should definitely let people know up front, even if they have to fine print it.
What they should do is simply allow new member to download the lower quality 720p up front, since this is what is made available on just about every other site now with no wait.
As far as the 1080p stuff though, I can somewhat understand them charging the premium. I think it may well be of a higher quality than any HD on the net; certainly it's the best I've seen and I've been around. Even some other sites that advertise 1080p don't really compare to the kind that Brazzers is putting out right now. I know that's a bold statement and I could be wrong since I haven't seen every site, but you'd have to see it to know what I'm talking about. In addition to the fact they are putting out 2-3 of these per day.
We are also talking about massive file sizes for the 1080p, like between 4-5 GBs for a 30 minute scene. They can't be expected to make that available to everyone right off that bat. They've got so many members it would quickly overload the servers; even guys trying to download regular wmv files would be impacted. This would cause them to institute some kind of download limitation which would turn off many long time members such as myself. (luckily I'm still only paying the $9.99 loyalty discount).

I just downloaded the AssTraffic HD Sample. While it is not far from the Brazzers quality it does not quite match it. Brazzers if brighter with much richer color textures. The difference is not huge but substantial, and definetly noticeable immediately.
Put it this way, I have a very powerful computer that plays the Brazzers HD smoothly with no problem at all, but if I try to fast forward a scene it will not let me do it, the video freezes. No other HD porn has ever given me that problem. I may start a forum thread to see if anyone else knows of a site with HD of the same quality.
As well though the other concerns about AssTraffic still stands, namely a lack of updates (according to the TBP review), and no network access.

You make some good points. While I do believe it is fair to charge a fee for the 1080p blue ray. They should let you know up front that it is not an immediate part of the membership. Really what they ought to do is as I had previously suggested, make the 720p HD available immediately, since that is what most sites are offering now. That would still allow them to charge the premium for the full HD.
Overall then we disagree over whether or not it is fair to charge the premium, but agree that it they should be more up front about it, or at least need to find a different way to do it.
As for Ass Traffic, I already conceded that they may well have the same quality HD as the Brazzers 1080p Blue Ray. However I am not sure, maybe I will download the sample and give you my opinion in a couple of days. The only thing I would say that it is apparent that not all 1080p is created equal, since the website Pornpros also advertises 1080p but it is nothing close to Brazzers quality.

Wanted to make an addition to my response.
During my normal surf session today I did notice that Pornpros also states they are using 1080p, so it is open to debate. However I also am a member at Pornpros (9.99 loyalty discount) and I am quite sure the 1080p they use is not nearly the quality as that of Brazzer'. (not even close) Looking further the file sizes for even the most recent Pornpros HD vids only range between 600-700mb's. While for Brazzers they range from about 4-5 GB's.
Even still I'm sure Brazzers advantage will not be a permanent one in this regard, and it will be interesting to see what happens when others catch up.

Lol, I wish I were a webmaster for Brazzers, I'm sure it would be much more lucrative than what I am doing currently. Nonetheless...
First off I originally stated that Brazzer's HD is the best I have PERSONALLY seen; I'm no expert on the subject. You may indeed know of other sites that offer video that is equal in quality to what they have at the moment. (Although I would probably guess that there are not many.)
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.
However even if it does offer 1080p it still a poor comparison since:
#1 There is no network access.
#2 Site hasn't been an updated since August (according to the TBP review in September 09) may well be dead, not sure since the have no update schedule listed on the preview.
#3 As of the TBP review in September they only had about 138 HD videos. Brazzers has a little over 300 already with updates of 2-3 per day.
Nonetheless, some have brought up legitimate beefs with the Brazzers model that I do agree with. First if you purchase a yearly pass you should be given access to the HD vids immediately since you have already paid up front. (I actually think that is a bit ridiculous.) They should also think about giving immediate access to the 720 HD since that is what you would get immediately at a comparable site
All in all I'm pretty confident that Brazzers is the only one putting out 1080p porn in quantities this large. Even DDF's vids aren't nearly as impressive and they've been the standard for a while now (as for as networks). For that I think charging a premium is fair. Besides from an IT standpoint offering complete unrestricted access to file sizes that large would be painful at best. I've been on sites that had no HD and what shut me out due to server demand (Scoreland).
Speaking of Scoreland now THAT is model I disagree with. They segregate nearly ALL of their HD content to a completely separate site called ScoreHD. It's basically the same exact videos from across the Score networks but just in HD format, forcing you to pony up another $30 (standard price) if you want the HD vids. (But there are no pic sets at SCORE HD)

I didn't want to play the bad guy here, but I think this site is getting a bit of a bum rap. First I would say that the new 108p HD videos are absolutely STUNNING!! It's not easy to impress your average porn connoisseur nowadays, but I can honestly say It is by far the best HD I have personally seen on the web, I don't know if it can even get any better. Certainly I will admit that they had issues before with vid quality but now they have clearly gone from worst to first in dramatic fashion.
That said, I can also see from a business standpoint how it is fair to charge a premium for the new HD. First off as stated before it is by far the best HD out there, particularly if your talking about "mainstream" sites. Second, as they have mentioned, if they allow everyone access to the HD vids it would almost certainly overload their servers. Most of the 1080p vids are huge, were talking 4-5GB's for a typical 30 minute scene. Even the 720p vids are around 2-3GBs. If they just allowed the typical user with a high end computer and a fast connection to download whatever they wanted it would be a nightmare for everyone, including those just wanting to get the regular wmv quality.
Nonetheless 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. I think that's fair. Many users like myself took advantage of the loyalty discount a while back for $9.99 a month so it's not that bad. (Don't know if they still offer it now)
As far as the billing issues I can't speak to that, although I am not downplaying it. I'm just saying it hasn't happened to me and I've been a member for a while, had to change credit cards etc. I will say that for those who had yearly memberships that is indeed a bummer. They ought to have some sort of yearly recurring membership so you don't have to renew manually, but I can see how some people wouldn't want a membership to recur yearly, most sites have that as a one time thing.

I am a long time member, basically took advantage of the loyalty $10 discount. What I would say about the HD is that it is truly stunning. It's by far the best HD quality of any site I have been a member of. They basically went from worst to first in that regard.
That said if you hadn't seen the HD and still gave it a 92 that is fair enough although I think you would have been pleasantly suprised had you gotten the chance to check it out.

I have already taken advantage, coming back to lock it in after a very brief absence. I plan on probably keeping sticking around permanently, yet another of the dozens of sites I should have reviewed already.

Exactly. I just clicked the link to take a look again. I see that they have simplified the front page to make it look like the main Brazzers site. There are no DVD covers to be seen at all, which suggests that it has original content.
I usually am not one to criticize Brazzers nonstop like some others (I'm still a member). However this is boarderline fraudulent. I'm going to create a comment to warn other users.

The problem with that site is you would really just be better off with a VideoBox membership. Most of the guys that might join that site are probably members at VideoBox or another similar site that has more content.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm honestly suprised they are still around with all the iterations theyv'e gone through. I was mildly interested a few years back until I saw how few sites were updating for the price (and a small catalog to begin with).
It seems they discard customers like they discard sites.

Too bad, I still plan on returning here in a couple of months and doing a "power download" of the content I like.
This site even at $29.99 was still too expensive for anything more 'one month every now and then' subscription anyway.
By the way, the $29.99 price also included all 19 sites, although I think they just added the "Watching my Daughter go Black site", so I'm not sure how many that is now. (18,19 or 20)
Nonetheless, too good to stay away, too expensive to stay.

No not billing fraud against customers. Chessie had put up a video on Youtube a while back saying that the company that owns Chessieland de-frauded her. She was encouraging fans to visit her new site Chessiemoore.com
Note: I may have the two sites mixed up since it was so long ago and things may have changed since then. But hopefully you get what I mean.

Yes I've been to this site and it is quite bad. Although it was years ago and at the time the quality wasn't at least acceptable. Chessie considers this site a fraud. She states they ripped her off, leading her to create Chessiemoore.com, a site I haven't been to yet but was considering. Too bad you say it isn't very good.

This looks like more of a review than a comment. I have been a member here before; does a fairly good job for what it is. Although, if you like such content (particularly the hardcore) I would refer you to sites like, BBWsuperstars, BBWpornpass, and perhaps all kinds of girls.

Toadsith's Reply
I appreciate your reasoned response. Yes, I meant that NA has more content that CougarsinHeat (CIH). Also remember that in the comment I did agree with you that the content on CIH is slightly better (more and better pics, very slightly higher vid quality etc.). However I still don't think these differences are significant enough to justify the price. Remember this site charges MORE than NA does for a pretty massive network. The only way it could offset that imo was if it was bringing a particular niche to the table that is unique, or hard to find, but the premise of the site is pretty much the same as NA, many of the models are also the same.
I had no problem at all with your review though, as a standalone sight it more than holds it's own, and many of your points are justifiable.

Oddly enough I'm actually a member of this site (I have a discount link for $14.95 a month). I joined the sister site Club Tug (normal hand job site) and this comes as a bonus.
As far as the fake cum, it's obviously about the fantasy. The network as a whole has a mixture of themes varying from humiliation, young and old (milfs and young guys), cfnm, teens, etc. The enormous cum shots are used as a plot device of sorts and overall I'd say I like it.
The only problem is that all of the early videos (which comprise roughly half the site) not only use fake cum but also have the women stroking what is obviously a fake plastic cock.
I found this to be too outlandish to get into. For that reason, I can only download the more recent vids which have the women stroking a real cock and uses camera angles to create the illusion that all of the cum is coming out of it.

This company has had some questionable billing practices, so I would warn you against taking a membership. I may go back, but with a limited prepaid card only.

I joined Devils Film for $9.95 through Idealgasm.

However, my list of network seems to not be quite as expansive as Mbya's (based on him getting Evil Angel as well as all the sites he listed in the forum thread he started).
I think they might be toying with different levels of access, as well as possibly randomly selecting customers (so they can still have a control group of customers with just individual site access to compare against). Just a theory, but the welcome page did mention something about me being "selected".

rearadmiral based on the info i got after joining Devils film this is basically in an experimental/beta testing phase right now. I had absolutely no idea I was getting access to all these other networks until after I paid (for Devils film only).
My guess is they are market testing this to see if a Netflix style model (complete with "Adult Time original content") will keep members of these individual sites from cancelling.
If it doesn't work they can pull the plug at any time, and customers won't be able to complain because all they committed to giving you was the individual site you joined (in my case Devils film).
