I agree that the new format 21st Sextury is using is confusing, but they have improved it some. I went through the whole process of finding the site that had the most sites I wanted with it. I didn't realize it is much easier than I thought it was. Here is how you do it.
Go to a site on their network that you are interested in. Click "Full Network" once that opens up, look over at your right, you will see a dropdown box, if you click it and scroll down, it lists all the sites you get instant access to. If you keep scrolling it will tell you the order you get the loyalty sites, 2 per month that you stay as a member.
You can also look just above the samples and it now tells you how many sites you get instantly by number and how many loyalty sites you can get.
I joined through zoliboy and got 35 sites instant access, including this one, Lezbo Honeys, Footsie Babes, Sweet Sophie Moone, Playful Hands about 8 sites that are really good, the other 27 are okay at best. Still, with 8 really good sites for $30, that became a good deal for me. On a side note, the ones that looked to have the worst bonus sites were Club Sandy and Pix and Video.
Yeah, I had joined Sophie for $29.95 a couple of times last year, so that was a shock when I got it the first month as a member of Mandy is Kinky. I was kind of worried that I would get the low end bonus sites, but ended up getting more than a dozen that I really liked and would rate in the above average range. I really didn't know Mandy is Kinky isn't updating. What happened there, I downloaded a few clips that were the unusual costume variety, so I just stopped fooling with it except to get the Mandy content and the Zafira set.
They removed it awhile back. I went to join the trial not long after that review to get the rest of the Skillful Hands content, but it was gone and even worse, they've changed the Skillful Hands site. It used to be exclusive content, now they just add scenes from DVDs that are available at any DVD site.
I think Rocketpay is okay. I don't like that they want you to use the "remember me" feature, which recognizes you if you join a different site that uses Rocketpay and tries to pull-up your past payment info. I'm sure they're trying to be helpful, but the last time it pulled one of mine up, it was a card that expired in 2012.
I don't know exactly how credit card processors work these days, but I do know that they charge a fee for their full-services. The sites lower their costs by having the sign-up and cancel pages on their sites, instead of having separate CCBill sign-up and cancel pages. It also allows sites to include things like surveys when you go to cancel. Mano Job does that. It's five basic questions like, "What would you like to see on our site?" and "How can we make our site better?"
The cancellation link is on the main page of the site at the top. You'll see "support". When you click it, the drop-down menu comes up and has "cancel" as an option. From there you cancel just like you would on CCBill or Epoch and they do send a cancellation confirmation email too. They seem like pretty decent people. I posted a comment about one of their sites being broken and they had it fixed almost immediately.
Oh and Rocketpay has been around for awhile. They used to be the primary for all of the Kink sites. And I know I touched on it in my review, but there's no DL Limit unless I missed a point. On my last night of the membership, I downloaded 142 GB and didn't hit a limit.
Hey Denner, as a longtime fan of Eve, I visited this site on a trial a few weeks ago. The content is from Eve's site and from her licensed content that appears on Twistys and a few other sites. I may be wrong, but my understanding according to the guys at her official site, she has retired. I'm guessing she got married. I had noticed that a lot of her newest material, she had a very large wedding ring on and several of her last sets were in a wedding dress and wedding lingerie. Her official site hasn't updated in over a month now, and that I know of, she hasn't had any new material surface on any sites, the newest I have seen is on Sweet Eva on the Teen Dreams Network, and she has lightened her hair color in it, still dark, but it has a light brown look to it now.
Hey Denner, the video files I have from Teen Brazil look pretty good, the specs on the videos look better than the actual videos though. The properties on the video files I have say 720 high end 2000+ bitrate, which should be near perfect, but they aren't. I would rate the video quality maybe a 7 on a 10 scale, though the video content, the girls and action are really great. I still have every video that I downloaded from Teen Brazil, which is rare. I usually delete some or put them on DVDs, but I still have every episode on my hard drive. I remember liking the Mega Pass network, but it was mainly for the Brazil/Latina sites they have.
And thank you for the review. I try to keep up with the Brazilian sites, but the best ones are Mike in Brazil and it has a daily download limit, so it was nice to get some new Brazilian content that I hadn't seen. And I agree, it is always nice to see replies to reviews. Thanks for the reply.
I had wondered if the X would throw anyone off since for example, FTV has FTV X and that's male/female hardcore sex.
Met-Art's "hardcore" site is Sex Art. It's not going to make you think of Evil Angel or Burning Angel but it does a good job of presenting the beautiful Met-Art models in hardcore sex.
Met-Art X is more like DDF's One By Day site used to be and how 21 Sextury's Club Sandy and Pix and Video were.
This is all starting to be confusing after seeing Khan's post about them getting a higher price. Maybe it has something to do with my browser having been to Met-Art through a promo email a few days ago? The original link you posted was also giving me the $19.95 price. Ever since I joined Met-Art, in 2010 I think, for a full year subscription, they've sent me some really good deals.
I meant to reply to this, but had been on a mini-vacation. One thing I should have added, not for sure if this made any difference, I had a year membership to Met-Art last year. It ran out about 3 months ago, so I don't know if the offer was maybe offered to just those who had joined it long-term or not.
One thing to remember hondaman, the reviewers that "ding" Met-Art for no hardcore, are saving people money that are only interested in hardcore. You mention that it isn't relevant, but it is to someone who has never been on the site that would be reading reviews. Interesting discussion here in the other posts. If I could humbly offer you some advice hondaman, don't mention other sites in a review and say they aren't as good. It will make some of the members question if you are trying to promote the site you are reviewing over the competition.
Otherwise, very good and thorough review for the first time.
I also had a problem with the "moods" of the models on Met Art, I think I referred to as, "What is that on that far away mountain away from the cameraman?" They look like they are trying to pose naturally, like they are distant and caught in a moment of thought. My attempt to show that the pictures are too dramatic for their own good isn't working ha ha.
I do like the models, but one thing that really hurts is that a lot of the models have been seen on other sites, in much more playful, fun sets where they give off a whole other vibe. That's it! The models look too serious on Met-Art. On the basis of the site's quality though, there is very little, if anything to ever complain about as you pointed out. It just feels like the personality from the models is lacking. Great review.
I figure that I already was teased enough in my early 20s to pay someone to do it now! My first ever porn solo site was this extremely cute model named Sweet Dominique. I was so built up that I would see some nudity when I joined it. I did, of her taking a shower with soap covering all the good parts of her body. I'm also a big Aria Giovanni fan who for the most part is a tease model these days, but I at least have seen some content of everything she has.
I think this site would be great for those like my wife. She really enjoys the pictures and says things like, "Look at how her shadow cascades over those rocks!" WHAT? I don't want to see her shadow! The thing I agree the most with you about on this site, the damn pouty poses. Smile! You're making money off showing your body, I would be smiling if someone paid me money to pose naked! And really, if I walked up to a gorgeous model, and I was single, and she was pouting I would just walk on by.
Pink Panther, This is why I need more than 1500 characters! Though, I don't find the models that different in general. Maybe it is because of similar poses or hairstyles? I do like the site as one to look at, my wife loves it, she also loves Abby Winters, a site I really can't stand at all.
Skinny women are a no-no for me. Coming from California, I've been around the naturally curvy or surgically enhanced curvy women. The waif-skinny ones are to the point that they turn whatever turn on I have, off. I would prefer a meatier model that some call "fat" like the girls on Ox Pass.
But I do agree, their photos are beautiful to look at. Similar though, if someone parks a new Lamborghini in front of me, I'm going to enjoy looking at it for a little while, but I'm going to get bored and want to drive it eventually! I have trouble with the imagination part if I have never seen what I am imagining. Similar to Next Door Nikki and all those non-nude models, I could never get into those because they never show what I am imagining. Most of all, even my wife thinks the videos are bad! Thanks for the comment
Hey Schnitzel, thanks, I actually join the site for my wife. She loves very softcore, highly erotic photography, but really isn't into anything much more. I find myself looking for more pictures! I'm digging through a zip file saying, "Where are the rest!" I really can appreciate their quality though, and similar to how I will reply to Pink Panther just below this one, I am a lover of curvy women, so those real skinny ones aren't going to do much for me. I'm also more into the at least trimmed pubic hair models, not really into shaven slick either, but the full bush isn't my type either. I'm open-minded enough though to know there are guys who are opposite of me in those regards. Thanks for the comment.
Hey SD, the good thing about Lucy is that she also isn't waif thin, has some meat on her bones, though she isn't that well endowed up top. Nearly all of the big multi-model sites have some content of her. Another that I had just thought of, though she hasn't had a lot of new material lately is a model named Lenka G. The only problem, some of her content has short blondish/red hair, the rest long dark hair. Sure, come on out and look at our collection of goth girls. I joke with them that they are on the wrong coast since 90% of the other women at the office have long blonde hair with deep tans. It was interesting at the last Halloween party two of the short haired goth girls dressed up as, "Sad Goth Girl" I take it that is a comic book or cartoon character, maybe anime or something like that. With schoolgirl outfits on and combat boots. Our barbies out here look at them like something is wrong with them.
Hey SD, I prefer the really long hair models, but I go from the extremes. I either want really long (near waist) or short, above shoulders. Have you seen Lucy Lux? She has content scattered about on the main big sites, Twistys, Xisty, etc.. She is really cute too, pretty short hair.
I too notice that the short hair models are usually covered with tattoos, really there are 3-4 "alt-chicks" that work in my building with the very short hair, tattoos, black rimmed glasses, dark purple to black clothes. It is definitely becoming more mainstream than I expected.
I was on Misha Online just last week, looking around to see if I noticed many changes. They have my all-time favorite Sandra Shine set, real sassy looking outfit, looks like she is in a high rise apartment in Chicago. I don't even remember when I was a member, but had been meaning to join, just to get that set and see what else they have.
I think you might be thinking too much. In my reviews, I try to include options and advice for everyone not just experienced porn users. Have to remember a lot of the newer porn users are still getting so excited they are falling for cross sales, so there's no way they're going to remember a process to get to the secondary biller. I will tell you this, Bang Bros is getting smart to it. I already had a membership to Bang Bros and was trying to add the upgrade package. They took me to a payment page, I did the wrong expiration date trick and they booted me back out. It gave me a page about calling to upgrade my membership across the phone. A customer service rep is the one who gave me the advice on using a prepaid card. He said when a person joins a recurring membership site, the biller has no way to know how much money is on the customer's card but that the biller knows if the card can be charged again when it recurs. He said to get a prepaid card with the exact amount of a subscription plus 1 cent. That 1 cent is enough to fool the biller into thinking it's a debit card and not a prepaid card.
That is interesting Buckhead. I rarely read the privacy policy on a site. I'm not for sure how to take it though.
One example I would give. This Fame Pass company seems to be running hundreds of sites. I've joined one of their sites one day and will have 10 emails the next day to join one of their other sites for a greatly reduced price. Mofos would fall into a similar situation since they are ran/owned by Manwin. Manwin owns a lot of sites, do a search in the forum for "Manwin", I know someone posted a thread about them buying out a lot of sites.
I've accepted the spam part of being a porn lover. It's annoying and all, but I just use an email address that is for nothing but porn sites. I don't know the full legal rights they have, but I'm thinking spam is probably the limit of what they can do.
Though I wouldn't say you're being too paranoid. I would however look into Manwin. Seeing that they would have a ton to lose if they did anything illegal, it would be hard to see them risking the loss for a few bucks here and there to do anything more than sell your email, age, etc...
I just noticed this review after you mentioning for me to comment on your reviews. Does the site have zips for pictures? That is a big selling point. How big are the pictures, the resolution? What resolution and bitrate are the videos? When you mention the older videos are not as good, you say the format isn't as good. What format are they? Is it the resolution or bitrate or both that is bad on the old videos?
Most of all though, you say this isn't the best site of this network, which is the Brazzers network, but in your reviews, it is the highest rated by you, which site from the network is better?
The one thing about the DL limit, I'm not having any problems with it. What I have been doing is downloading 2 full scenes from each site, each day, equals about 8 GB per day, and I have yet to be cut off. My understanding is that they get you when you download a lot from one site in one day, like if you downloaded 8 full scenes in 1 day from Money Talks.
Agree about the daring men parts, some of it is just sickening. Some of it comes off as very staged too. The one scene where the women are washing cars. The guy's girlfriend who they get to flash later in the movie, is in about 4 other videos on their other sites. I guess they could always say she had never been in porn until that dare, but some of it just seems a little fake.
