I am often surprised how this site survives being one of the most expensive around, I guess it must have a loyal fanbase with deep pockets.

I would really like to join this size but it is a gamble trying to decide which membership option to choose. I'm not that interested in videos but if I joined I would most likely want to download every photo set in zips at the highest resolution and really don't have any idea if the 300 GB or 500 GB membership option would allow me to do that. If there is anyone out there who has downloaded every photo set and can tell me the total file size of all the sets it would be much appreciated.

Hi skippy! I have signed into this site many times for review purposes and think it's a really cool concept. Is the "pay to play" one you're thinking of Life Selector?

Yes, so far all content is uncensored. That was one of the main reasons I joined this site. Very smooth and nice navigation too. Great download speeds too.

from Colm4:
I joined this site a few weeks ago and disagree with some of your points.
First, you say the jerk-off hand gesture seems weird. I disagree. The site is called jerkoff instructions, as to instruct you. So I kind of expect them to 'help me'.
Second, not getting off with the sound off doesn't really apply to this genre. It's all about dirty talk and weird situations, like babysitters wanting a raise, the girlfriend of your son who likes older men or even (step)daughthers/sisters who get hot by seeing you jerk-off.
Totally unrealistic, sure, but I think it works.
And ofcourse with over 1500 scenes, you can't expect every scene to be perfect. Some scenes ARE bad and have no chemistry at all. Just skip to the next one, there's plenty.
And lastly, 30 seconds isn't correct. A typical scene is 8 minutes where about 30-40% is build up and the rest is about the 'instruction'.
I would also like the scenes to be a bit longer, but it's not that bad.

Ariel's awesome and there is TONS of material on her site. It's oddly organized - you'll find a lot of material under her blog, for instance. It's easy to miss things if you don't click around in all the nooks and crannies.

Looks like I need to keep looking around. There is one bonus site that isn't bad called Ariel Rebel. Although I don't recall seeing the girl before, the solo site has Recent updates, decent vidos, etc.

I took them up on an email offer to join at $15/month and have been considering making the effort to write a review. They currently have 135 videos and 149 image sets. The photos are pretty lame but the videos are another thing. "Real orgasms"? Yeah, well, as real as they get in porn. Scenes are 11-12 minutes with a fair amount of teasing/stripping. Don't look for screaming and thrashing about; the masturbation is genteel and fairly quiet with few props that I've seen. Video quality is exceptional and the women mostly stunning. I got my money's worth in two videos of Mila Azul.

Hi Skippy,
I am sorry that you had problems getting signed up for an offer, and that you subsequently ran into issues with the single sign on process.
I took a look at our ticketing system, and this seems to be a resolved issue. If not, please let me know about it right away, and I'll jump in and be sure that things are lined out.

Hi, I am sorry to hear that there was any confusion regarding your signup. ECHST.net is one of our billing platforms, and an email should have gone out with your signup information.
I've looked at the open tickets for our Customer Care team, and am not seeing any that seem to match your situation. Would you mind to drop me a line so that I can ensure that we resolve any concerns, including the unwanted duplicate MetArt membership?
You can reach me at selena@metart.com . I look forward to hearing from you.

ECHST SEEMS TO GET MORE COMPLAINTS THAN CCBILL OR EPOCH.
IF YOU DON'T HEAR FROM METART SUPPORT IN A COUPLE OF DAYS, I SUGGEST SENDING ANOTHER EMAIL TO THEIR SUPPORT, AND TELLING THEM ABOUT THE OVER-CHARGE FOR METART MEMBERSHIP.
IF YOU READ SOME OF THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT ECHST, PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT POOR/RUDE CUSTOMER SERVICE, AS WELL AS FRAUDULENT CHARGES TO THEIR CREDIT CARDS.
PLEASE LET US KNOW WHAT HAPPENS.
METART USED TO BE WONDERFUL WITH THEIR CUSTOMER SUPPORT. FAST AND RESPONSIVE AND CARING.
ECHST IS NOT A NEW BILLER COMPANY. BUT I'VE NEVER USED IT, EVEN THOUGH I'VE SIGNED UP WITH A LOT OF THE METART NETWORK SITES OVER THE YEARS.

SEVERAL YEARS AGO THEY USED TO OFFER $10/MONTH MEMBERSHIPS TO ANYONE WHO BELONGED TO ONE OF THEIR SITES.
BUT THEY STOPPED THAT DISCOUNT YEARS AGO.
I THOUGHT IT WAS A NICE BONUS FEATURE FOR BELONGING TO ONE OF THEIR SITES.
ONCE IN A WHILE, THEY WILL OFFER A NICE DISCOUNT TO ONE OF THEIR SITES.
I FOUND AN OFFER TO JOIN EROTIC BEAUTY FOR $1/MONTH A FEW YEARS AGO, AND JOINED.
SO I'M STILL PAYING $1/MONTH FOR EROTIC BEAUTY.
BUT I'VE NEVER FOUND ANY OTHER OFFER THAT WAS THAT GREAT.
P.S.: I'M TYPING IN CAPITAL LETTER BECAUSE IT'S EASIER FOR ME TO READ. I'M NOT TRYING TO SHOUT OR BEING RUDE. AS YOU GET OLDER, YOUR EYES DON'T SEE AS WELL.
BUT I STILL LIKE PRETTY PICTURES OF NAKED WOMEN. LOL.

Hey, I was just reading this and wanted to mention that MPL Studios long ago resolved my issue and I am now a happy member there. I wrote a review of that site here on Porn Users.

ALS's redesign several years ago is one of the only ones that I really liked. Too often redesigns actually ditch good features or leave behind a portion of content. I haven't checked out MetArt's redesign, but I see where you guys are coming from with the complaints.

I agree the old format is much easier and simpler to use.
Plus, it's the once I've been accustomed to.
Separately, the new format can mess up the intro page.
A few days ago, the new format page came up automatically, and everything was in tiny size. The thumbnails were tiny, the text size was tiny, and there were 2 black bars on the sides of the page that took up most of the page.
I sent an email to Met-Art support, asking how to get rid of the page and return to the old format.
Support emails me back, within a few hours, but their reply was not useful. They said they could not duplicate the effect that I was seeing for the Met-Art page.
I increased the size of the page using the VIEW-ZOOM option on my Firefox browser, and that allowed me to find the icon to return to the old format. (I couldn't read the page in the new format since everything was so tiny, except for the 2 black bars which were taking up most of the page.)
Anyway, I will use the old format as long as I can.

I am still using the old format. I find it easier and simpler.
I did not pay any attention to the Beta version pushing the live girls section in my face, as that doesn't interest me.
What I did find was that the Beta version name tag was different for the same photo depending on which version you download from. I ended up with duplicates. So it is not so easy to change to the Beta.

from Drooler:
The new format is fresh and new, but I can think of some things that meet that description but are less than appealing. ;)
I went through a bit of puzzlement before I figured out how to use the new zip download interface. It's a bit more work than the older version. Of all things to push more out of view, that was not the best choice.
What I haven't seen in the new setup is the option to increase the size of the thumbnails when you're viewing the contents of a photo gallery. I'd checked through the user settings to see if they'd done that, but I didn't find anything. If you ask me, the thumbs are too small.
ALS Scans, which is under the MetArt umbrella, does a better job at thumbnail size. Could the child be the father to the man?
I'm sticking with "classic" MetArt for as long as I can. And the "live girls" will go on living without me.

This is a most excellent and helpful review. I was a huge Met-Art fan back in the day but it looks like I stopped in late 2010. Over time I've gotten more and more into video, mostly hardcore, but I miss those gorgeous women and have given serious thought to resubscribing. Your review pushes me closer and closer to doing that. Thanks.
And the discount doesn't hurt.

from greg909:
I'll also chip in with a couple of "cons". I think that Met-Art gets too much praise for their image quality. Sure, there are some sets--maybe 15%--where the quality is superb. But the majority are just OK or even flat-out bad. There's so much badly focused, dark, grainy crap here, that it's a relief when you finally find a set that's worth saving. Unfortunately, it's the regular contributors each day who are the mediocre ones and the really pro photographers only show up occasionally.
Secondly, I have no problem with the site being soft core, but so many sets here are heavily processed to remove skin detail, hair, etc. What you're left with often just doesn't look like a real girl, and that's what takes me out of Met-Art.

from Monahan:
Well written review, Skippy. Being an on and off again member over the years I agree with everything you say. However, there are a few things to add to the "con" list, IMO.
First and foremost, the site is a PHOTO site with a few unimaginative videos, usually on the cheap videos of photo shoots. The good part is you get to see more of the model than you would in an edited set of photos.
Second, their naming conventions suck. Some of their models are in the main stream with totally different names. Worse, the standard procedure seems to be to pick a random female name with a trailing number to differentiate the models with the same name. Fortunately, once a name is assigned, they stick with it rather than have multiple names for the same model.
One more minor annoyance (very minor) is that, when they do daily updates, they don't mention new sets they have added late to previous updates. That means you'll need to review the chronological update displays to find new stuff you probably didn't know existed.
Other than these minor negatives, there is no better porn site in the business both in the quality of their product and in having the most ethical and fair business practices in the business. (I was amazed when I decided to sign up for an annual membership after being a monthly member for a few weeks, they prorated the unused portion of the monthly fee as a credit on the price of the annual membership.)

Excellent review. I basically agree with everything you wrote. Except possibly I don't find the cross-selling very annoying, compared to what many other paysites do.
Obviously, I would like to get their entire network for free, after joining any one of the network sites, but we can't have everything.
I think that Metart is the best value in the network.
I even paid for a lifetime membership to Metart. I only wish I had done that from the start, because it would have saved me the monthly and annual memberships to Metart that I have paid for. Except that I think for many years while I was a member, they didn't offer a lifetime membership.

Thanks for the clarification.
It was an empty day, so that is why I posted my comment/reply.
I do think that MetArt is a great site.
I never got a refund from them. But I was never double-billed from them, as far as I know.
Stay well.
