tangub's Review
from Mackenzie Model:
Can I add that you can actually download everything off the site including videos!
I am confused as to why right click 'Save as' eludes some people?!
In Google chrome it actually downloads the video automatically when you click on it rather than streaming.

Sites like that etc will always have zips sets because their models are paid models that are not exclusive and available in several sites. With most multi model sites though - it's bought content from a photographer that sells X amount of licenses to anyone buying. Zips don't matter because there is no girl to become sad or feel exposed when her content is being traded for free.
I respect you love zips and they matter to you and others as well but that doesn't change the fact that we don't offer them, and never will, regardless of how many people are upset. It's our site, not theirs. If you were a nude model online, you'd feel *very different* on the topic, I can assure you.
Often, customers don't grasp how things are run behind the curtain. You see tits and ass and assume the ladies have no feelings or thoughts on things. This is where Bella is very different from almost every network out there because we treat the ladies like ladies and they make their own decisions. (we don't make them for them) We're not going to zip hotos and have tons of free video content for tube sites like many others do when what it translates to is the model feeling more exposed because she's being given away and traded on boards for free (thanks to zips being downloaded and posted from no-moral members that feel the need for a ^ 5 is more important than respecting a model's rights). We don't put out either (zips or free video samples) and the model doesn't get traded the same way as those sites that do have those things.
Guess what else not having zips everywhere does? it keeps her relevant and in high demand. If anyone can get Bryci on any number of multi model sites - is she as popular as if she's not everywhere? Penthouse is the only place she's had content published, I photographed her for Penthouse magazine last year (Oct 2012 issue).
Photos matter, as I said.
Please look up the word "context". :) You're not quoting me completely there are you? I said the majority of people chose videos over photos. Surveys done here in PU show this as well, look them up. We had our own surveys done and they told us the same thing, 4 our of 5 people rank videos as more important but this doesn't mean we're stopping doing photos. As I said before where you misquoted me, photos do matter - but videos matter more.
But hey, thanks for staying on context and posting an ad for another site in a Bryci review. Very classy of you, indeed.

I never created the profile saying United States and no apologies necessary. :)
I respect that regional bothers you, but again - ccbill sets those rates based on market flux to protect the webbies from assorted fees that occur when we get chargebacks, fraud etc.
A shame we can't make everyone happy, some people just need to be heard. So sorry if I wasn't hearing you. I know that's frustrating when that happens.

Why can't people read? Seriously. All you're doing is going in circles. What I said to Capn, applies here as well.
I'm not a US based website.
I have already covered why we have regional, what regional is and why others use it. I have pointed out to you that we're not CCbill and we don't set the rates. I have pointed out that ALL BANKS WORLDWIDE buy into market fluctuations and adjust their rates accordingly.
If you have an issue with the way CCBill sets things, call CCBill. I am not CCBill.

Not sure if you're aware of this - but we (the sites) don't set the rates. CCbill sets the rates based upon bank rates and fluctuations in bank rates that occur daily/weekly. The rate changes as the market changes. I am not sure how often they modify things, again, we are not ccbill.
CCbills' own explanation on their site:
"Because the market fluctuates daily, we update the CCBill Recommended Ratios on a regular basis. If you click the Accept Regional Pricing button below you are accepting today's CCBill Recommended Ratios"
I view it like this -
If you have a dollar bill from America, and you go to Canada or Spain - is it still worth a dollar? No. Why not? Market fluctuation. Perhaps in the USA your dollar is worth a dollar, but in another country, it might be worth more, or less. Regional pricing accounts for the averages and sets them accordingly.

I'm not sure if you read what I said or if you took it our of context etc. Photos are important, but to the majority of users, they are not as important as videos are.
To the average guy, when he goes to fap - does he use a photo or two or videos? Obviously different for everyone but survey says... videos.
That is not my personal opinion, that is fact based on surveys we've done, other sites have done, even PU has done int he past. Videos are more important, but that doesn't mean photos are not important. They are and always will be. That's why we still create them and more to the point, create them at higher resolution than any other site out there in our niche. :)

It is because they have got away with charging them a modest extra rip with the majority of folk . Now they are trying it on to see how much the market will bear.
If more folk had baulked at it & made a stand as I & a few others have done, we would not be in this situation!
If I see any ' regional pricing ' I'm gone... for good!

We offered zips for a three week time period when we first started in Feb 2009. By March we had removed the zips option and we have never and will never return to it. Zipped photos mean your content is in trader forums for free. I can think of solo model sites that don't offer zipped content, and it's hard to find their content. I can think of solo model sites that offer zips and it's incredibly easy to find their content.
If we offered zips, perhaps we'd get a few more sales initially, but for the headache it'd bring and then out content being all over, sales would drop and it's simply not worth it to us. There will always be pirated pix/vids no matter what the site is, that's part of the industry. If we can slow it down though, we do.
What's funny is we get maybe one email a month asking about zips. It's nowhere near the issue many in here make it out to be. Nobody really cares that much about photos anymore, videos are more important to our user base according to 4 out of 5 people.

I guess my ignorance is showing. See that Bangbros is a big and long lasting company I thought their long tenure meant integrity.
As you're comments point out - I seem to be mistaken.
Thanks for your help and thoughts.

that's even stranger. the exact url I was directed to is: http://www.assparade.com/t7/?prg=pps&...&cmp=warningpage
I thought it was rather strange that access from the main site had different behavior then the direct url.
Do you see the same thing when you go to the above url?

from Ed Freiland:
Hi,
You surely noticed that we upgraded our member area during the past weeks and made several changes to make the navigation easier. The old filter has been turned off and we introduced the brand new 'Scenes' and 'Models' pages. By using them you can find easier the requested scenes or models. As it's a new improvement it may contains a few bugs, but we're continuously checking the scene tags to get proper search results.
There can be a technical issue if you're using Internet Explorer - in this case please give a try to a different browser.
About bug reports please open a ticket on our site and the customer service will help you to resolve it.

Kind regards,
Ed

Noticed the search engine last few days is all over the place. And blank spots where pictures should be and reload does not fix. The search gives names or scenes not asked for. Not sure what is up but seems to have become worse.

Hi Tangub,
Thanks for the compliments. I look forward to your take on the site as well. If it was not for the shear amount the give you and HD photos and Vids I would have rated it lower. Any other site irritated me like this would be normally in the mid 70's. But when I can find what I am looking for the women are smokin and the site redeems it self slightly.
PS the DL manager compatible is a huge plus for they site. If that was not here lol I may toss my pc out the window too .

I guess you have to be realistic. But there are sites that have an archive of cute and attractive models that should still be worth something, but the sites go out of business, and that content can be lost.
It's happened in the past, I'm sure it will happen in the future, especially with the downturn that porn sites seem to have experienced in the last few years, whether because of the financial recession, or other factors.
It's not just porn sites. Automotive companies in the US and elsewhere have killed off brands that were around forever. The Oldsmobile brand was over 100 years old when it finally died in 2004.

It isn't working for me yet either so I suspect they're still working out the bugs. It'll be a useful tool once it is working though.

I don't know if you are aware but she retired from porn at least 2 years ago. She sort of left the door open for a possible return but most people felt that she wouldn't be back. I like most of the girls in the network but most of them have been gone from porn for many years so I know trhat i would only be paying for older stuff and for some of them some really old stuff.

Looks like an interesting addition to the genre - as you say, a bit sparse, so babes.com is likely to be my next heartcore join - but this is worth keeping an eye on.
