elephant's Review
from Karup:
Hello Elephant,
We are very aware of the KarupsPC members area being outdated and have been working on it for a long time. It's right around the corner from being ready and we're 100% positive that every surfer will find the new members area to be a breath of fresh air compared to the current, outdated layout.
The reason it's taking so long is because the site has such an enormous amount of content, as well as the fact that when it was oringally designed, we didn't plan on one day needing to go back and rebuild it from the ground up. Had we planned for this, it would have been done long ago, but unfortunately, we didn't do this over 10 yrs ago when the site launched.
I'm going to send you a private message & offer you a preview of what the new KPC members area will look like when it's finished. Even if it isn't enough to ever have you back as a satisfied member, I'm confident you will agree that at least the members area is a big improvment than it was for you at the time of your review. And that alone will have made it worth taking the time to hopefully change your opinion.
Regards,
Jeff

I definitely agree that it's way behind on design and functionality. Those 12-pic zips are ridiculous, and so are those mile-long lists of pic categories. I rejoined just 2 weeks ago myself in hopes that the redesign they'd told me about might have come through, but I knew I was taking a gamble.
At least there was 7 months of content waiting for me. But now I'm all "drossed-out."
Hoping someone will join AFTER the redesign is completed and will review the site here.
Still, unless their server upgrades are lagging, there's no excuse for them to not have just gone ahead and at least provided larger-sized pics and single zips for whole galleries, back in Feb. as KarupsHA did. The same goes for the videos, which you're into. Makes me think that the management there is too inflexible to make adaptations to the present time.

I've never joined a femdom site because I have no desire to see guy abused anymore than I'm curious to see a guy take a strap-on. I'm fine that some people like that kind of stuff but I'm not one of them. I've been a member of fucking machines, ultimate surrender, public disgrace, whipped ass, sex & submission, everything butt and bound gangbang.
I didn't like the first 2 and I'm borderline on the third. I've already said that the machines make way too much noise for me to enjoy the scenes. Ultimate surrender is mostly wrestling in front of a crowd and less so about sex. Nothing wrong with that since that's how it's advertised but I wanted more than the site offers.
I enjoyed a couple of the public disgrace videos but the premise doesn't appeal to me. Seeing girls abused in front of a crowd is not my kind of porn. The only ones that I liked were filmed indoors.
Now I've been a member of all the other sites more than once except for bound gangbangs but that's only because the site is new. I always comeback to these sites. I have a soft spot for everything butt and whipped ass because these are mostly women with women and anl is always the main theme.

I agree that it would be nice if they offered some kind of group pricing but I don't really mind paying a little more than for other sites. The reason why I don't mind is that I find them to be one of the best internet porn companies and they've retained that quality with all the problems facing every other company. I don't know if you ever look at their calendar but Tanner Mayes did a fucking machine shoot on August 2. I don't know if this is a one time deal but I certainly hope not.

The only site that seems to have less tattooed girls is fucking machines but as much as I wanted to like the site. Those machines make a lot of noise and that overhadows whatever thrill I got from hearing the girls have an orgams.
Mind you 30$ for 2 months is really hard to pass up. Especially if you have never been a memeber of the site. I much prefer girls without tatoos and implants but I`m usually able to overlook that for the kink sites because unlike your standard porn. The girls that choose to do kink shoots are usually into this stuff or want to try it. In both cases it tends to make for great porn and when it doesn`t then the site is usually quite honest about it and tells the viewer that such and such scene had to be cut short because the shoot was too intense for the performer.

You are correct that on paper they would make more money but the reality is that if they made each scene only one kink then every dick head content thief would buy those scenes and post them on free sites and there goes their extra money. By making them so expensive then they don't get as many thieves.
It's possible that you saw a different screen then me but the sites that I saw at 14$ are really 29.95 for 2 month memberships. The 14$ is not a lie so much as a little bit of misinformation. The only way you can get that price is if you join for a year. Mind you 29.95$ for 2 months is an amzing deal for any of their sites.

I've never really understood the pricing for this site. The only thing that I can see is that they offer it because people might want to stream some scenes rather than join the site. Maybe the reason why they charge such a high price for buying a scene is that they'd prefer the people buy a membership. There are plenty of deals where you get a 2 month membership for 29.95$. That's less than 15$ a month and that's hard to beat for such great content.

As it is not changing, I've got a feeling it is just a marketing trick aiming to make us think exactly "at these prices you really might as well subscribe for a little more".
Well, at least they're not cheating us, pricing is out there, fair and square.

It seems the "Pornworld" subscription covers the old Glam Porn studio and DDF. It might be worthwhile if you plan to buy (or want) more than a couple of dozen scenes from those shown but if you want full access to Legalporno (as I do!), you may be disappointed.
Although it's miles better than some of the price-per-video being charged by some thots on Onlyfans!

Valid points. I'd likely sign on for that rate. The drawback for LP would be that many subscribers wouldn't keep recurring membership but would join occasionally to download the scenes posted since the last time they joined. But it would still be very profitable for them. And I agree that the ticket system probably prevents some people from 'joining' who would otherwise take a membership.

You're right. I believe they do dole tickets out 40 at a time every 30 days. So if someone was in a rush to buy a lot of scenes, buying direct tickets would be what they'd need to do. It's just a much worse value.
It just occurred to me that part of their calculus for not offering memberships with access to all videos may be an effort on their part to discourage easy pirating of all their content.

@elephant and @rearadmiral - which is why I have never joined LP: it's too expensive and could be highly addictive. However, I have a collection of about 150 LP movies and it hasn't cost me one cent (yet). Sure, they're not 4K movies, but I can live with that. I am finding these movies quite boring recently: same scenarios and someone described it perfectly: a "circus act".

I suspect that they are already raking in huge amounts of cash with their current business model which gives them little incentive to change it. They also show no signs of any kind of decline that might otherwise cause them to try something new.
Bear with me while I make some completely uneducated assumptions.
The latest Charlotte Sartre scene is currently showing about 55,000 views. I highly doubt that means that so far 55,000 people have bought the scene. I suspect that number is how many people have accessed the page or watched the trailer. My biggest assumption is on the number of people who then buy the scene. Charlotte is a big-name American star so I’m guessing that a conservative estimate would be that 5% of people who access the scene buy it. That would mean so far that 2750 people have bought it at approximately $5.50USD for a total of just over $15,000USD. I suspect that amount probably has them in the black on the scene already. But remember that the scene just went online yesterday so it still has lots of legs in it. I plan to buy a copy but just haven’t gotten around to it yet. Truthfully, I need to add some tickets to my monthly allotment before I can buy it. The Aidra Fox scene took the last of my tickets.
But look at another older scene that probably also generated a lot of interest – Samantha Rone’s first double anal that was uploaded in August 2016. That scene currently has views of 230,000. Again assuming that 5% of viewers buy it that means the scene (based on my uneducated assumptions) grossed approximately $63,000USD. (I had to assume a 5.5 ticket requirement because I bought the scene when it came out so I can’t see the ticket cost for it any longer.) Even if they paid Samantha properly for that scene they have definitely made a lot of money off of it.
I suspect that in choosing the two scenes that I have I am slanting things a bit because these scenes were probably bigger draws than many others. But it’s also possible that my assumption on uptake is low and maybe 10% of viewers buy the scenes. That doubles the gross for each of them.
Not to drag this out, but I think a good comparison is between Kink.com and LP. Kink is clearly in decline. They still produce some of the best BDSM porn available but it seems to me that it is a sign of decline that they can no longer sell memberships to individual sites but now bundle them as a network. If LP is generating the interest that they are then there is lots of life in their business model yet.
But like you, I definitely wish there was a one-price full access membership.

Upgrade their servers again? That implies that they've done so in the past! With these speeds it is as if they have an old Atari as their server.
With LP, I'm willing to overlook their quirky ways because there isn't really anyone else like them out there. I even overlooked their requirement that your account had to be verified but at least they've dropped that now. As for pricing, it doesn't happen often, but there are some scenes that can hit near 8 tickets. I realize this is supply-and-demand, but the scenes with A-list American models tend to be priced the highest.

Thanks for the comment. I said it earlier, but it bears mentioning again: when your site takes three experienced porn buyers to figure out you may be doing it wrong. I'm sure their porn is expensive to make - many scenes have multiple models and most feature some extreme acts - but I agree that if they simplified their business model they could improve sales. I first heard about LP on another forum and it was raised by someone who asked a legitimate question as to whether the site even took memberships from outside Europe. That may be a silly question for any other site, but this one is so complex to join and use it was a valid question.

I can't comment too much about the looks on the girls face because I simply haven't seen enough of any of their scenes to have a decent sample but these guys aren't trying to shoot porn where the girl is having a good time so it's probably next to impossible for the girls to fake it. I guess their formula works so why change it? I won't say anything else on their method of billing but their ticket based system is a guaranteed cash cow. I mean how can it be anything but that when a 30$ membership only gives you 35 tickets which will get you a maximum of 35 videos but only if you pick old content newly updated. I would say that 35 tickets gets you about 7 to maybe 9 scenes but that's it.

The main reasons why I wanted to join this site is because they hire all the really hot new Euro girls and they make them do some truly hardcore stuff. Their choice of models is amazing. Just look at Lucie Wilde: http://www.eurobabeindex.com/sbandoindex/luciewilde.html
for a good example. You would think that good looking girl having hardcore sex would be a great recipe for success and I suppose to some people it is but I've come to the conclusion that the stuff LP does is so bad that they prove that it's possible to screw up a great recipe.
The reason I've come to the above conclusion is that whenever I watch a preview (obviously a full scene is impossible since I got shafted) of any of their scenes then there are recurring themes that ruin the scene. Here is the list in no articular order.
1-Hot girl is made to look as skanky as possible.
2-White sofa, white wall, bright lights make all the scenes look like they were meant for some kind of documentary rather than porn.
3-The sex is mostly all circus porn so you get weird positions, pile driving penetration of the girls orifices and a general disregard in regard to the model.
I'm kind of glad that I didn't actually get to download anything because I would have had to delete it all from my drives sooner or later.

If you're looking for something in this genre you can't do better than Lelu. I'm blown away by the fact that she updates every day. Most solo sites can't keep up with once a week.
I caught some flack for scoring her at a 100 in my review, but I have to stand by it. My mantra is she under sells and over delivers - that something I can't say about any other site.

Glad I brought the site to your attention. It is exactly what it says it is, a bit of a rarity in my experience.
If you do join please do a review. I know I was criticized for my over the top enthusiasm, I wonder how someone who's completed more than twice as many reviews feels?

Yeah, the $5/month rate is why I stick around. There is a ton of content. The older stuff is great....I'd rather pay $5 than use up hard drive space....good luck and I hope you're able to get that rate.
Customer service is actually pretty responsive

21sextury is always tweeking their network and I think this is just their most recent one. It wouldn't be so bad if you could at least access all the lez cuties scene on their preview page but you can't and that's where the problem is currently.
