Well, I find the studio websites are a mixed bag. Some do it better than others and even within a site, some stuff stinks. Take Evil Angel for instance. Pretty easy to navigate but some of the older material I have to use the IAFD data base to see who's in a movie and if it contains the type of material I want because the web master does not label them at all. Just yesterday, I found a movie there that was totally incorrect - different movie by different director distributed through another distributor. I jumped all of that one.

Well I have to tell you that after I read that (though I'd read his review) I saw the date of mbaya's review which was on the 28th of March, so my educated deductions says "Nope".

Thanks RA - it's a good site and I'd be interested to read your take on it. I'm not sure about the DM issue - IIRC that the link you click on to download then redirects to a CDN - something that DTA wasn't able to follow and just downloaded the placeholder file.
Other DMs may work? I wasn't really bothered since I have fast download speeds, but my connection is arguably capped so it's nice to use a DM to download out of hours (which doesn't count toward my cap).

Wow! I joined here 2-3 years ago and, going by your review, nothing much has changed - not even the amount of content (by much). If it's still a small site, something's really wrong.

I rarely have joined the teen solo sites. There were way too many of them that used the ol' "Sign up to see her naked!" lines in the fully dressed previews. Then when I got inside, they were naked, but had soap suds on their boobs, legs squeezed together. Kitana Jade/Cherie Roberts comes to mind. Not to mention, the months I kept waiting for Next Door Nikki to get naked. It's funny how the times have changed in porn in just a decade or so. I remember when the future stars of Euro porn did hardcore for their first 4-5 sets, then went to 5-6 years or more of nothing, but solo or lesbian.
From what I remember about Melissa's site it was pretty good. So it should be a safe join.

You know rearadmiral, I'll never understand sites like these. They snatch these new models up, put them on solo sites, seem to keep them on only the solo site and outside of chance and luck, very few of us will even know they exist. It reminds me of Raven Riley who I think could have been the biggest internet porn star of her era if someone would have thought to put her on maybe Twistys or any of the other big multi-model sites.
And I don't know what's happening to my mind when I notice nice, muscular thighs over every other part of the female anatomy. I do still have this site on my very short list of to join sites and thanks for the heads up on the join options. I will take advantage of joining through Melissa Pass.

I think that when they decide to license, they probably don't get to choose whether or not they get HD, whomever they're licensing it from does. For example, it looks like they've just started uploading scenes from Teen Fidelity/Porn Fidelity, but all those scenes are in standard definition, even though at least some of them are available in high definition on that site.

Thanks RA, I'm sure you will find some stuff there you like (as I did), just be prepared to do some video editing yourself, and to be frustrated with it at times!

And here I thought I took a lot of shit on those occasions when I've been told, very emphatically, that my opinions are wrong and that server issues were something I was doing wrong. But I've never been threatened with a lawsuit. Congratulations - you win the gold medal?

I think that they haven't really changed anything since day one and maybe they get just enough people to join to make it worthwhile to keep it as is. If you are a fan of Janet and plan on buyng many of her movies than joining the site is more than worth it because you get a 20% discount on her movies. Sadly that's not the case for me.

I think a membership would be slightly better for you, rearadmiral, since you prefer younger models, but if you look at the comments accompanying "mature" updates then you'll know that I regret taking out a long term membership because VB will make sure they don't upload too much of anything that will cause a storm of protest. When first I subscribed I still downloaded the lesser quality DVDs but now I can't stand them. HD has spoiled me, so no more long term subscriptions to sites like VB and Videosz unless they turn all HD and that is not very likely!

I agree that they'd probably be better off if they focused on 1-3 movies per day and just made them of "better quality" (i.e. HD, more well known actors/studios). That would probably buy them some more time before the content dried up entirely. About the only way I can see them being able to get back ahead of the curve now is if they were to attempt to buy content from websites that have stopped updating relatively recently. It would give them a ton of (probably) lightly seen content at a cheap price.

I just don't see how they're going to fix their HD problem without raising the subscription price, to be honest. Because most of the companies that still exist and are shooting their content in HD already have their own websites and aren't going to sell/license that content to Videobox. So they're probably just going to shell out more money to different companies to get their not-new HD content. And as you noted, even the premium channels aren't doing it, since they still want to give you a reason to join their site instead of going through Videobox. This is just the danger of being a site that doesn't produce its own content. They're at the mercy of the market, and the market isn't going to be kind to them.

The volatility of the business is what makes some of the lifetime memberships a risky bet.
But $100 is a low price for lifetime privileges.

from messmer:
Good observations re. quality, rearadmiral. I have been downloading HD videos ONLY for quite a few months now because the so-called DVD quality scenes (640x480) just won't cut it on a widescreen modern monitor. Most of them come across as too soft and blurry.
BTW, I think that should be 5 updates a day making the inferior quality contents 80%. :-) And I am having a TERRIBLE time with VB because HD MILF and Mature videos (my preferences) are few and far between and when they do appear as an occasional update they are chock-full of enhanced breasts! Aargh!

from messmer:
Great review, as usual, rearadmiral! Just a couple of remarks re. personal preferences. I can handle the interviews at the end of a scene just fine, as a matter of fact I like them because they re-assure me that the model was not abused. I just don't like them at the beginning and usually fast forward through them because they destroy the mood for me.
Also, in connection with this site I found that there was too much rope bondage for my taste. I like the psychological "torment" like public humiliation or humiliation in general, or abusive language (hey, it's BDSM) in a BDSM site better than clamps, or wax, or rope. Just some general remarks, actually nothing to do with your excellent review except for the interview thingie! :-)

from joekramer08:
yeah, i don't get this site either...i almost seems like the site's videos have DRM attached to them...so even if you can download them, it might not be worth the hassle of DRM. I wish they'd do a review or at least update the site facts on thebestporn.com so we could know what the download situation on this site.

Excellent review, ra - just finished the lastest term - and that site got loads and loads of material. And I downloaded "tons".
But pretty strange - do not go back much to watch....got that strange feeling: most of it is repetitive - and yes, it is strange.

It's a little worse than the scenes start to look the same because frankly most of them usually do that anyway. No what I meant to say is that you now get about 2 or more almost identical scenes with the same girl and often the same guy(s) doing the same thing in a very short period of time. It's not necessarily a deal breaker for you but I was for me. I'm sure i will join sometime this year but not anytime soon.
