Yes, and add to that the fact that those of us who willingly pay to support these sites often have limitations (streaming-only for example) that people who use piracy sites don't have. It seems as if we're being punished.

I'll chime in on that and agree also. These sites are walking away from money if they don't offer a deep discount to returning customers for a longer term membership. For the most part, though, looking at it from their perspective, if you are interested enough to come back at full price, why should they give you a discount?
What I have found is that some sites offer a re-join discount through their biller. Sometimes the cancellation email you get will say "If you want to rejoin, you can do so at $" and they provide a link. There is no time restriction on a lot of these so it never hurts to try. You can also sometimes go to the biller's website and find your original subscription and see what the rate is if you rejoin from there.
Here's an interesting one. Going to my old membership through the biller is my first choice for rejoining. I have been able to do this a few times when a site's rate has gone up. That probably saved me $60 last year. Once I even opened a chat and asked about it and was given the lower rate. Only the best billers will consider this, though. A few are complete asses.
Check with your billers!

Hi,
Interesting. I joined Diesel network in December, was only given a $29 option and was not given a streaming only option. Then I was offered access to the other sites for an additional $20 a month, so I took it. I let that one lapse as I only drop in for one month a year. I don't mind being told a full subscription is $29, but getting a $19 offer only to find that it isn't a full subscription is criminal.
One thing I noticed is that Twistys prices vary a LOT for no reason at all. For Twisty's, I got 3 different rates from the same computer by going to the join page with different browsers. PU price was $19. Regular price via Chrome was $29 and regular price via IE was $25. And of course I could not tell if any of them included downloads. I would be really pissed if I spent $29 and found that downloads were extra.
I recall that In The Crack has a view-only rate and they have different rates all the way up to 4K downloads, but the information is absolutely clear when you go to sign up...clear enough that I remember it without looking. View-only starts at $10. The rate including 2k HD downloads is $39. I even asked them if they have an annual rate and they said it didn't fit into their pricing structure...so I go back once a year.
If a view-only rate works for web sites, I think that's great for all involved. But changing a regular price to a view-only price in an effort to quietly raise prices, or worse, using a bait-and-switch without telling customers up front, like Twisty's is doing, should not be tolerated.
I take comfort in knowing that historically, every site I've ever seen where the webmasters get too greedy has either failed or dropped in ratings to a C level site. Judging from recent comments and ratings, clearly Twisty's is well on it's way.

"And I wonder what will happen under Trump?
Will he give in to conservatives and start a new crackdown on porn?"
Don't take anything for granted. Look at how fast a single executive order changed the lives of so many trying to enter the US. How quickly do you think payment processors would respond to a similar executive order? For better or worse, Trump has already lit many other bigger fires, so hopefully the porn issue will stay on the back burner.

I reread and edited the review (2am reviews are not always the best...) and borrowed your "conventionally attractive" term. :-)
Thanks again!

Thanks! I try to be as detailed as possible and when I run into something that is far from the norm, good or bad, I like to elaborate. This one had some cool features, but compared to the leaders out there, the quality just wasn't there.
Your term conventionally attractive is perfect. Very few 18-24 year- olds are not attractive in some way. But very few look like Anjelica or Malena Morgan. Very hard to describe that without sounding like a complete ass.
You should get a set of Google cardboard glasses for your Android or iPhone, just to try it. There are a few sites that will send you a pair for free when you sign up. VR is very cool, but using a full-blown VR headset takes a little more effort than just sitting down at your desk or whatever.

Ah. My bad. I read X-Art and thought MetArtX. I wrote an X-art review back in 2012 and haven't been a member since 2015, so it looks like it is time to rejoin! Sinc X-Art and Colette are part of the same group, it is entirely possible that some of the sets are duplicates.
I'm a current member of TMW and, again, you are absolutely correct. I'm not sure where I was looking but I must have been confusing it with something else I had open at the time....or I was having a stroke. It was only 9:00 so alcohol or sleep deprivation could not have been the culprits.
Thanks for the response and for the corrections. All good!

Looking around a little more, I do see a few common models on Colette and Met Art. Heck, I just found Leah Gotti on Met Art from 2015 (disappointing sets of her, though, considering she has quickly become a really popular, full blown, do everything porn star now...interracial 5 guy gang bang on Colette? I'm more crushed than curious.) But I am still sure they are not sharing material. I may join Colette since it looks interesting and I haven't before.

Easiest way to figure this out is to look up model names at indexxx.com
I am 99.9% sure that the material at Met Art X exclusive. It is not the same stuff at Colette and TMW. MetartX uses many of the same European models as Met Art and, with the possible exception of Nancy, I have seen none of these models at TMW. TMW is primarily US porn models. I have not been a member of Colette, but it looks like those are mostly US porn models also. If you look at the model listing and check names against Indexxx, you will see that these TMW/Colette girls might be at ALSScan, but I didn't see any at MetArt or MetArtX. There are a few models that might be at both, but it isn't the same material. Now...I do see a couple of lesser Met Art models at WTF, but that is not too surprising since WTF is a European site that collects material from all over. I have never seen any authorized Met Art network material on any sites outside of their network, so I am pretty sure that it isn't the same material there, either.

Possible but seeing as they are the ones who actually ripped their own dicks off than who exactly will they revenge against?
Mind you there was a discussion on another site regarding Darth Vader and whether or not he still had his original equipment and the answer that was given is that he lost it when he caught fire after loosing his battle with Obi Wan. Of course that's only if you accept that the prequels are an integral part of the entire Star wars series of movies. I do not because the prequels only borrow info from the other movies and manage to fuck up the logic and continuity of the story.

I can access the site.
Besides, it's part of the wtfpass network. And, BTW,
- Join at TheArtPorn says "$34.95 for 30 days access"
- Join at WTFPass says "Limited Offer! $9.95 for 30 days access"

so not including the newtwork sites, this site has 483 updates? are they all exclusive? I've never joined because the preview page was so awful to me, with just a bunch of pics from the same few scenes thrown in together in a mash and that's it.

Excellent review! It is especially good to know you get access to both sites. I am not sure if that was the case when I joined years ago. The WHOLE reason I joined was I saw a foursome on Beeg with Klara and Paloma and their front facing double doggystyle is STILL in my top ten all time favorite scenes. There is a 5 min clip of it on Spankbang atm. Anyways thank you for the very good review!

The "latest videos" page has 12 videos listed, which includes a couple of upcoming videos. Of the 12, eight are VR. Maybe they recently produced a bunch of VR (they're short) and the mix is not going to be typical. But I do hope they don't ignore those of us without VR.

It's gotten irritating actually because so many of the updates are VR and are of no value at all if you don't have a viewer. And the VR stuff is apparently all bad POV handjobs and the like. Boo!

They have a bunch of VR videos on the regular site already. Shipping on the home deliveries is likely to be expensive considering they're all in Russia or Eastern Europe. I'm going to start saving my pennies now.

Agreed. I'd be lying if I said I never joined a site through an email offer or through Idealgasm, but the offer has to be far better than what TBP/PU offers, and that doesn't happen often. I find that most offers I get are matched here at TBP and I'll always join through here to ensure that the primary funding source is alive and well.
Two other things about Idealgasm that are worth noting:
1) they offer deals on the same sites, over and over. It seems rare that a new discount is offered, unlike here at TBP/PU where new discounts are always being added;
2) Idealgasm offers no way for users to comment on the deals and potentially warn other users of possible problems. I joined a network through Idealgasm a few weeks ago and the deal was sold as full access but it actually only gave access to two of the network sites. If that happened here at TBP/PU a member would have made a comment and warned other potential subscribers away and the TBP/PU staff would have found out what was going on.
All that to say that I completely agree with you.

You guys should both be aware of a site called idealgasm.com. . . . I joined Evil Angel this month. . . at $9.95/month. . . RENEWING at $9.95/month. . . . Don`t know if it works in Europe, but it`s worth checking out. . . Now, I never join a site without first checking with idealgasm.
