Pyrenees's Review
from rearadmiral:
I like the genres they cover but I find some of their scene setups to be repetitive. The scenes seem to follow a set pattern.
If you're still a member there can you see if Brutal Pickups has updated recently please? I was a member there recently and the most recent update was May 2016. I like the public element of those scenes and would consider rejoining if they had new stuff.

Thanks for the comments.
Resolution is definitely an issue but the newer stuff is quite good at 1920x1080. The problem with the newer stuff is that it's pretty repetitive.
Unless there is a strong compelling reason for you to join this one is likely best avoided.

I cannot agree with your review in some respects, but I shall only deal with this one:
"Their search function is terrible in every respect and their video streaming is prone to breaking".
I have not found streaming problems. As for the search, I believe it is very good, what is terrible is the navigation. My advise: always click first on "Videos & Images". For whatever the reason, it makes a change. Then you can search by title, description, keywords, SKU (movie number identifier), starring, producer, release before, release on, release after, & production year.
And always duplicate tab in your browser before attempting any link, because "back" always leads you to the home page.

I think this was a truly great review of an interesting website. I also have to add that it takes a bit of courage to sign up for a site that PU does not do business with.
I was a member several years ago and liked the content. Do they still use fuzzy camerawork with very little lighting? I felt this style to be an acquired taste that I did not like. I did not have any billing problems either.
Did you ever sign up for Spermastudio? It has a lot of the same type of content, but without the billing problems. I am thinking of rejoining as it has been several years since I was a member there.

This isn't a big improvement, but at least now you can pay double the price right upfront and get full access immediately. I didn't pay double upfront but did quickly to get access to the BTS stuff but that turned out to be a dud. I'm glad I joined but likely won't join again.

Last week I reviewed Grandadz, a similar site that used to be called Beauty and the Senior. Lets keep in touch. My email on PU works.

The black version of this is Ghetto Gaggers. That site does not come with this network, but is instead part of Ghetto Doorway. I was last a member there almost two years ago, but never wrote up a review. It did have the same download limit problem then. By the way, JM is a DVD company that has hard content, but it is in no way connected to these sites.
Nice to see you back and posting on PU.

I'm a big fan of Kink too and would score it as high. But, also like you, I think Kink needs to consider what made it great and get back to that. They still are the best BDSM network on the internet and now that they offer a membership that allows access to everything they will remain that way for the foreseeable future. I agree that they need to get back to where they used to be and start a couple of new sites. It's possible that they haven't toned things down (though I think they have) but certainly other sites bring more passion to BDSM. Remember Water Bondage? That was an amazing site and I wish they'd bring that back. It's probably too expensive to produce though. The Training of O has also been toned down a lot. Remember the 'old' days where it really was BDSM training? I really liked some of those older videos filmed over four days with discipline training mixed in with some sex. I just don't 'feel' it with the newer scenes.
Great review!

I think this is a great comment Pyrenees. While I'm still enjoying the new updates, I agree much of the older content was superior. I might rejoin every few month to check out what's new. But I don't think Kink is going to be able to hold me into a long term commitment.

I suspect it's a mix of greed and desperation for them. They've had some other issues over the past year too. One of their more popular and prolific directors left. They've also started making some scenes from the DDF Network available and I suspect that may have undermined some of their credibility. I can imagine that someone who wasn't aware that these scenes were available on a traditional subscription-based site would be pissed to learn they spent expensive tickets to get a scene instead.
Another problem that crops up regularly is that their download speeds are often very slow. I might be willing to forgive that on a cheap site but LP is so expensive I'd like the buying experience to reflect that.
You've hit on this in your comment and others have mentioned it too on another forum: the number of models they hire (or are willing to work for them) seems to be down. You see the same models over and over again.
I really do hope that LP is able to pull this out of the tailspin they're in. Whether that means that I can afford to buy scenes again or not is irrelevant but I'd like to see them be successful. The scenes they offer are unlike anything else.
I wonder if a traditional subscription-based model would work for them? Well, it would. I don't think there is any doubt about that. Even if the subscription price was higher than normal (even $50 USD per month) and they never offered any discounts I think this would drive a lot of business their way. At $50 per month I wouldn't keep a recurring subscription but I could see joining three or four times per year. I realize that their business model is a bit different since the site is made up of different studios. But I think that’s how Evil Angel works and they’re able to be successful with a subscription model and still keep their directors happy.
(As an aside, I join the two Pierre Woodman sites – Woodman Casting X and Wake Up N Fuck – a few times per year and those are expensive and never offer discounts. But like LP these scenes are unique and I’m willing to spend the money to get access. I really think LP could make a subscription model work.)
I’ll look forward to reading your upcoming review. It’s been a year since I was a regular at LP so I’d like to hear a current and objective viewpoint.

Thanks for your clear and intelligent reply.
I was afraid that my review was misleading. That is didn't show clearly the pros and cons of the site.
And I have doubts about the value or validity of a site score.
How the score should be used.
I've read most of your site reviews in the past.
And while I don't agree 100% with all the ideas and scores expressed, I think they are useful to help choosing which sites to join.
What I like most is that your ideas and viewpoint are fresh to me.
I feel like I've got into a rut in my reviews.
But hoping I will do better in the future. :)

I am not trying to sell you on the site.
You look at my score of 90, and think that is a site recommendation.
It's not.
The score of 90 means that, if you personally enjoy the type of videos they offer, then you are getting a large amount of
professionally shot videos for a low price. Which would be good value for your money.
Except: If you experience the download problems that you experienced, that would reduce the value of the site.
Also, the large file sizes reduces the value.
Also, if the overpowering ads make the site harder to use, that is negative value.
I was trying to be honest and fair in my review. But it's really misleading to think that a score implies how much an
individual will enjoy a site. Personal preference is far more important in how each individual will enjoy a particular
site. But I think that if you enjoy the type of content that Naughty America does provide, it's deserves a high score--because the negatives that I experienced are less important than what the site has to offer.
I don't enjoy the site. It was a mistake for me to join-in spite of the low membership price. But again, that is based on my personal preference. Which should not be the controlling factor in rating the site. The rating or score should try to indicate how much a site is worth, versus what you are paying for access. It can get complicated trying to come up with a fair value of the site's score. But that would be a topic for another day.
I thought my review has value. It's not entirely comprehensive, but I think it tries to be an honest opinion of my thoughts.

They did not improve Naughty America site recently.
I've read your review of the site.
I don't think anything has changed since you did your review.
I did list some cons or negative factors about the network:
1. The overpowering presence of ads on every page.
2. The over-large file sizes for videos.
3. Slow download speeds.
I gave the network a score of 90 based on the following:
Huge amount of content.
Professionally shot videos.
Wide range of niches.
Access to 4K videos.
Access to virtual reality porn.
If you joined the network, I doubt that you would enjoy the network any more than you did in your previous experience.
But---
I did not experience any PC problems while downloading files.
I did experience slow download speeds, but probably not as bad as what you experienced.
If you didn't enjoy most of the sex scenes before, there's no reason I can think of why you would appreciate them more today.
I thought I made it pretty clear in my review that I did not enjoy the network. But I believe that many people would appreciate the site/network for what it has to offer. And that was the controlling factor on why I gave the network a high score.
I mentioned that if I had remembered joining the site before, I would not have re-joined recently. But that is personal preference. I don't enjoy most of their videos.

Yeah I probably was a bit too generous. But the 4k videos just look incredible! And they seem to be the only decent network of sites with tons of content/updates that offer 4k. If only it didn't take forever to download everything lol.

I think if you've been a member before and have all of the old stuff, then the site is fine for downloading a few new things throughout the month.
If you're a new member, then it's going to be a lot of trouble and impossible to make a dent in downloading the catalog.

Their business practices also suck. Refer to the comments and earlier reviews.
50 is too high a score for this once terrific, but no longer, site. (Yes, I know that we cannot score any site lower than 50, but in this case I wish we could.

Yeah nice review Pyrenees, for me this sites network is making porn I actually like cause they show much more realness, ok some girls don't always do it for me but lots are natural looking and there are some real beauties in these sites, you're right some amazing enthusiastic girls that are shy at first then get into, that to me is a winning formula, if only other sites could go in this direction I'd be happy lol.

Not sure how you did your math but its wrong; the site charges 39.85 euros which converts to about $44 dollars.
While I'll agree that is a high price compared to most sites, if this is your niche then it's easily worth it for what the site offers. Even if you like to check out other sites on occasion this price doesn't exactly break the bank.
As far as not understanding this fetish I'm sure there are plenty of people that won't understand the ones you have. Move on and live your life......
