One more update - As this site slowly circles the bowl. . . The outside banner lists 18,570 DVDs. . . But, click on that to get inside the site, we see a listing of 11,000 DVDs - That`s down from 23,000 just a few months ago. . . And 99% of their recent "New Releases" over that time span are well over a dozen years old.

I signed in and immediately saw the significant decrease in content that you kindly informed us of, benmar51.
I can confirm that a new updated review should appear on The Best Porn by the end of next week.
Thanks for being vigilant and sharing these details with us.

Sad like I said this used to be a favorite site. the last couple times I joined it about 9 years ago I turned a video in that all the download links were dead, During that 30 days it wasn't fixed, like two years later I joined it still wasn't fixed. Didn't even get so much as an automated response. The only thing worth while are the channels but I'd rather join the official sites.

I used to love this site back in the day and agree they have gone way down hill. Are they at least updating the files to better quality? It's easy to see why though, all the big name studios release exclusively to their own sites so all thats left is old stuff and bottom of the barrel crap.

You will be missed, but you might not be missing much. After about 3 years I rejoined and the site has gone down. Streaming is slower, downloads are slower and custom downloads often do not work.
All 15 new movies (over 50 scenes)for the last few are exclusively Lesbian.
I'm gone.

Yup which is why I haven't been back in years. Better off joining the official sites, I also found with evil angel that these were chopped up versions with the complete unedited versions being on the official site.

I used to love this site, but customer support is pretty much nonexistent. I emailed like five times that a dvd was not downloading, waited the entire length of my membership and it wasn't fixed. joined again about a year later and it still hadn't been fixed and emails went unanswered that time as well. haven't been back in over three years. 95% of new content added is just rehashed compilations so the only thing on the site worth joining is the premium channels. Vivid hasn't updated in years and I think they pulled the reality kings or porn pros channel too, can't remember which had a channel on there.

Wow, a rare Rudyard Kipling reference on Porn Users. Are we becoming too sophisticated?

Without question, you were a great asset to the site. Among fellow members, you would undoubtedly have a 100% approval rating. Chances are oversight of the comment section got handed over to a new employee who failed to understand your contributions to the site. There's a possibility upper management wasn't even aware of what was taking place. This is why I suggest taking it in stride, and not letting it get to you. I understand your frustration, but would never characterize your work as "wasted effort." Firstly, I wouldn't rule out your comments being resurrected onsite, and secondly, even if that were not to occur, think of all the individuals you helped over that nine year span.
At the time you left, was the blog still available to members? I used to be able to access the blog as a non member, but can't seem to locate it now.
I just joined Nubiles (for the first time) a few days ago. Early indications are very favorable. That's the only site I'm with at present.
Wonderful to have touched base with you, and outside of this issue, hope all else is good on your end. I'm okay. Be well my friend; we can keep up with one another here.

Hi Benmar,
Good to see you. I haven't visited Videobox for many, many years, and am sorry to hear of your recent experience with the site. Once Alison, and afterwards, The Content Dude departed VB, interaction between membership and site representatives declined to less friendly levels than had previously existed. I wish them no ill will and am surprised by your final sentence, but again, I haven't been around the site and have no knowledge of what has transpired of late. My only advice is not to take it personally, and move forward. Are you a member of any other sites at present?

Thanks for the additional info. I've only ever joined the premium channel in the very beginning of my membership so wasn't aware that you got a reduced rate if you waited until your main membership was about to expire. Do you know approximately when the lower cost comes into effect. It's not something that I personally care for but maybe some of the other people reading your comments will want to know.

Your suggestion was quite good. I was only trying to tell anyone who's a fan of Elegant Angel movies and who may not be aware that it's probably better to go with Elegant directly then it is to join VB since you'll get a lot more content for your money.
I'd much rather that VB add the older Elegant titles than the newer stuff since that's the stuff that I can't find anymore.
I also wish you a Merry Christmas and in case we don't talk for a while then an Happy New Year as well.

Yes as someone has said above, it's a better option to just go direct for most of videobox's premium channels. You will have far more EXCLUSIVE content to choose from, which is always the key. VB never gets the newest stuff anyhow.

Thanks for the info but I don't think it's such a good deal since VB was already offering Elegant movies prior to this. All they've done is add more recent titles but it's not really worth it since you can get all of these titles plus many more by simply joining Elegant Angel directly for 4$ more.

It's apparent that you are associated with vb. You still can't read or reason. VB's problems are not occasional, they are daily. If you are not totally illiterate, do your own research in this and other forums and you will see. Or, you could communicate directory with vb customer support as I have. They acknowledge the problems. Or you could just go back to your gay and tranny sites and calm down. Lastly, what makes you think I am not a girl, and as for my ass, you'll never see it.

1. As to moving the new releases, they did not announce it, you had no idea where they were or if there even were any. After many complaints they moved them back to the home page. It was a big deal. Nuff said.
2.Many members have complained about 404 redirects, site freeze-ups, long delays, log in failures and similar problems. These are reasons so many members still use VB2, the old site, which IS still available.
3.I agree that there are thousands of good dvds for new members, but the cutback from 5 new movies per day is more a factor of budget problems, as is evidenced by the continuing low quality of the new movies. I for one would be willing to pay more for this site if the technical problems could be addressed and the new updates improved in quality. I have told customer support this. The current price structure is not adequate to support such a large site with such complex options.
4. The page you go to in order to play a scene mysteriously quit displaying the star's name recently, even though it is shown on the prior page and on the movie summary. I was mot referring to uncredited stars. One member has received an email from customer support acknowledging that this is a problem, and that they are trying to fix it. Any fool knows that uncredited stars happen at the studio level, not at the end site level.
I suggest you spend a little more time reading and trying to understand critical posts before you blindly defend a favorite site.

Which is why I would love to find a way to access their video content without joining their site. The idea that this place might have been that, even if I had to pay an extra fee on top of the normal membership, might have been enough to get me to join.

Thank you, that is what I was looking for. I might just join here instead of my next VB subscription, just to take a look at it.

from Indy0603:
I have a little different twist (AND COMPLAINT) about the downloads..
Ive joined the site a couple time in the past. Generally speaking, I enjoy the content and quality...
My most recent experience was an offer to join for $9.95 for 1st 30 days.... and it includes downloads.
Well... the downloads are incredible slow... I mean... like dial up slow!! BAD!! My download speeds were in the range of 120kb/s - 300kb/s, on average. So.... for 4K material, you are talking several hours to download 1 video!! And Guess what?? If you leave the download unattended and return you will be sad to learn that the download stops before completion with an error message.."Authorization required". :(
A very frustrating experience. I am CERTAIN they do it intentionally, because all other sites I experienced have far better downloads. Ive run downloads side/side for comparison...and other sites download speeds are excellent!
I have a sneaking suspicion that they limit download speeds because of the good price offer of $9 dollars.
I have tried many tactics to improve the speed, but to no avail. Ive tried a different browser, different computer, cleared my cache & cookies...isolated my ISP so that Im the only active user, Halted my security software....etc. Nothing changed. STILL DAMN SLOW!
Regardless.... Its deceptive and I makes me crazy.... so... I wont be returning to this site again. There is plenty of good porn out there managed in a fair manner, so its senseless to stay with this frustrating site.
..and yes... I agree with another reviewer.... I think they share same material with Lethal..

I logged in using our account and am still able to download videos. Was it the trial membership you signed up for? That one is limited so downloads will not be included.
