I said in my review I didn't have any problems while living in the USA. I see your living in the states so of course your not going to have any issues with this website from the problems I am having. Anyway a great website or a great business can make or break it simply from quality customer service. If you bought something really expensive from a huge store which has everything you could want but you end up getting a defect and you attempt to return it for a refund and the store refuses would you continue to do business with that store? If a business is only going to do so much to help a customer because of policy or just want to keep your money and leave you hanging, I am sure you will be just as upset as I am. Remember, it only takes one bad thing to make a bad impression on someone and I am saying it happens in life in general no matter how good something is. 1by-day has broken a business trust. If they had refund my money I would have given them a decent rating of 90 because made it effort to help a dissatisfied customer. I would do business with them again but only when I get back to the US but after this scenario hell no.

Man, that's the weakest excuse I've ever heard - "some reviewers at Porn Users are saying bad things about our site so we're going to cut our updates by half!" I can't imagine that they would be so petty or dumb. It's a premium-priced site and the flagship of their brand, so it doesn't seem like a wise move - but perhaps they looked at how going to 2 updates a day had affected their membership and just didn't see a difference between joins at 1 update a day and joins at 2 updates a day - so why not save the money and cut back to one a day?

I can confirm this.
The login process has been reverted as well...hooray.
Ya know, I can understand when a porn site removes archived content because of a change in ownership (see SoCalCoeds, they removed all their archived stuff because they didn't own the videos due to the ownership change), but there was no reason for 1by-day to remove the archives, especially when it is on a separate page with separate model listing.

Some of their material is now showing up on ALS. Photo shoots and some video. Haven't check them out yet. Something must be up with this site. They where so good for so long. Must be change of ownership that is cheap and not up and up. Avoid for now.

yeah, I was looking at this site. From what I've been reading.. I think its safe for me to pass on it... It was ranked very high a year ago... if they are trying to save money by dropping the archives..probably should drop the price to $30, and gain more memberships that way..instead...

This is under different ownership isn't it?
Looks like scores are going to be changing, and the once venerable site dropping in the rankings.

I was one some DDF sites earlier this year and noticed that recycling content was getting to be a bit of theme with them. My guess is that we can all look forward to "hot new releases" from the year 2005 coming soon ... maybe the porn industry needs to apply for some government bailout money so they won't do this to us any more ;)

Yeah just noticed this too. What a joke. There is some really good content older than 2007, besides the fact that many of the current models listed on 1by-day had a boatload of content that has now disappeared.
I'm going to write a review soon, but I guess they didn't like the fact that all the old content was ultra low quality, and not up the standards they established in 2007.
However, there is a term that they should become accustomed with: "remaster"
If sites like Ten.com can remaster their content, then so can 1By-day.

I'm still on a 1byday subscription and the same thing with the login happened to me -- it's become no longer usable as a "saved" access.
It might be to thwart hackers. My account had gotten hacked once and they had to give me a new pwd. Glad that I save everything, so I had little trouble finding it, but it's still a nuisance to have to enter the usepass on every visit.
Maybe I'll just visit a little less often -- more viewing per occasion. *sigh*

That may be a new thing because the last time I was a member they had very little overlaping material. At least it does appear that they have strated posting brand new material as oppose to re-editing older stuff.

I didn't get much from Euroteenrotica ("reruns" were one reason), but at least one zip was named with the model and a different DDF site.
Also had a problem with one of the Tarra White photosets. When I tried to open the zip, it was "blocked" by Windows because it had come from a different computer, the system told me. I chose "unblock" in properties, but it still wouldn't open. Trash, reboot, try all over again, same problem. Now that's more of a Windows issue, I'd think, but it tells you that these "separate" sites do have more things specifically in common than just the DDF umbrella.
Wivien/Vivien/Wanda I remember used to show up a few years ago without the boob job (and she was ample without it). If you look at the Vanda's under "V" at eurobabeindex, you'll see a girl wearing a black choker collar whose DOB is in 1976. I think that's her, and it's the only listing they have of her. She indeed looks like a woman in her '30's now, and doing very well, I must agree. She's also got five galleries (no vids) as Vivien at Europornstars.
Zuzana Z I went nuts for when she first started showing up: one set of her from ClubSandy with her standing at a wooden post in a silk blouse and a jean shirt. That set still just floors me. She's gained weight since her debut, but I still never pass on at least checking her out.
Oh, almost forgot: Happy New Year!

I had the same problem with I joined - the next morning - this was back on 12/24 - several sites were unavailable. I e-mailed their webmaster who got their tech dept on the problem and added 3 more days to my bonus memberships. It was cool to be able to check out DDF sites that I hadn't before. I thought Hot Legs & Feet especially had great material of the bonus sites.

I actually took the offer, but it cost $29.95 (Hot Legs and Feet, which I hadn't been to for about a year).
Didn't have the problems you're having, but I haven't logged in today, either.
I'd been curious about some of the other sites, but that curiosity was satisfied pretty quickly. Some of the sites are quasi-clones of the flagship 1byday, whereas a couple of them, the busty site and the "taboo" site, really did have more original content. And the taboo site even had some American models in there, too.
But I'm not into bean-bag chair ta-ta's, nor do I get off on spanking, pissing, or skin-tight black latex. Well, the latex was more fun when Julie Newmar played Catwoman. Jeez, I'm getting old!

Don't worry, the content gets repetitive after a short while even though they have a rigorous update schedule.

Yes, I also had the same kinds of mixed results with Peck's Power Join, all the while thinking, "Instead of this 'fix,' why not just offer full-length versions, too?" Club Sandy and PixAndVideo have done so at least sometimes, but it's hit-or-miss. Can't say anything about their past 6 months or so as I've been away.
As JD1961 points out, redoing such a volume of older vid material would amount to a lot of crunch time. One wonders if they even have whole scenes archived somewhere privately.
And again, it's especially a problem for long-lived sites that offered segments because so many people used to be on slower connections.

If you use a PC, you could try piecing the vid segments together with MovieMaker, which came with XP. Extra work for sure, I'm afraid, but I thought I'd mention the idea.

Well, I certainly wasn't looking to delve into a legal discussion. I am not a lawyer. I was simply noting what I've learned from working in the industry.
As far as your question regarding copyrights?
IMO, doubtful it's a factor. While there *might* be some cases where a Trademark or Service-Mark could be an issue, in the case of the model's name, I doubt that's playing into it much (if ever). This would be especially true if the model had ever listed the name on a release given to someone else.
Going back to the general issue, the things to keep in mind are ...
1. Model's have different names on different sites.
You can like it or hate it but it's a fact of life. There are a myriad of reasons for this and that's not likely to change in the foreseeable future.
2. It's often the case that model's don't control their own content.
Again, you can like it or not but in most cases, when a model signs a model release and accepts money for her images, she loses (most if not all) control of how (and often where) the images are used. Limitations would be part of a contractual agreement (or conditions) set on the model's release.
Anyhoo ... that's about the best answer to your question I can offer.

Concerning the remark .... "... and whatever name they sign, they have to use. "
Just so you know, that's not correct. It may well be what some webmasters THINK is correct but I assure you, most know better. While the webmaster MUST record (and save) every name the model has ever worked under (any alias, maiden name, etc) she's given and every name he's used for her, there is no law that I'm aware of (.... and I've been working in the industry quite some time) that says a webmaster must use the models proper name. As I mentioned, the model will often suggest what "stage name" they want to be listed as.

Thanks!
Stracey I first saw on 1byDay, and I was immediately smitten. Simi first at FTV Girls, same thing. They both get a lot work. Have seen one and/or the other at Errotica Archives, MCN Nudes, MetArt, Babelicious, InFocusGirls, TeenDreams, and EuropeanGlamourGirls.
