Thanks for the excellent feedback.
This site is currently going through a full redesign and will be ready in less than a month, if you email me with your username, I'll be sure to give you a complimentary look at the new site. This will include 100% of the sets as zip files, better navigation, feedback and favourites options, search functions and a much better look and design.
As you noted, some of the older videos are in different formats. This is common for sites which have been around a long time and are constantly striving to improve and therefore take the best format available at that time. To retro-convert those videos would be extremely time consuming and expensive, if we can get the pricing down to do this, we may but we're concentrating more on the new content.
I'm concerned with your comments on the video quality, as it's getting shot in HD on really good cameras and I haven't seen many shemale sites with the quality that matches, if you could contact our customer service with your problem we'll try and resolve that (although my first recommendation would be to try the free VLC video player).
The gonzo style on Franks has always been something which people have liked about this site (gonzo being the fact the models often suck or get fucked by the cameraman) but in the last year or so there has been less of this - and I agree with the fisheye lens issue, which was fine for a couple of shoots but not everyone.
I have to say your offbase with the photography, this is easily the best content I've seen of TS's - not just the models but the level of skill and style, of the photography, is far more professional than anything else.
Thanks again and be sure to contact us.

Yes, this is the place to go. I am a member of their new site, shemale.asia and I reviewed it with a better score because I think the site layout is way better. They both have the same content but the shemale.asia site is sleeker imho. The review for this actual site was one of my first ones and is not as good as the new, updated review for shemale.asia. Obviously you are/were a member of either of these and probably know about the newer site.
In accordance to your comment about the content, this place is the premier spot for ladyboys. I have yet to find a thai ladyboy site that can compare to what these people do here. They update the most (2x a week, while most are just once a week) with the best shot photos and videos. The largest complaint I hear about these sites is the music during videos but I like it, they go with the scene and you can still hear the model. If a new ladyboy site starts up, they should definintly take some pointers from these sites.
I look forward to your review. As I said I have not been a member of LB-69 for some time and would like to see your feelings in detail about the site.

This is clearly rubbish and biased.
The majority of videos in the last few years have been shot on HD. We show full length hardcores, our photographers clearly are as good as any other sites and we put up more content that the other sites.
We have more models than any other Asian TS site with the majority being hot ladyboys from Thailand and the PI. Some are the more masculine "femboy" type, the vast majority are not.
Take a look at the huge sample page on the site ... it speaks for itself. Your reviews should be removed as your clearly incorrect on many levels.

Good review which I mostly agree with. The sad fact is that Grooby will always update their content like this and they fully believe that this is what people want because they have been doing it this way for so long. It's a shame for the people like me and you who prefer one update with a full 10-20 minutes strip to masterbation scene ending in cum shot opposed to their way of updating with smaller lengthed videos involving just undressing and bj's. In your assumption that most members want to see content like we do, I do believe you are right. However, I do believe the webmaster of the Grooby sites believes the way they are updating now is the better way and probably has some good reinforcement of these beliefs if he is going to state that his members like the updates like this. But, honestly, don't feel like your in the minority for wanting updates like the way we want them. This is how the large majority of TS and non-TS sites update so obviously we have some basis for wanting the updates how we do.
However, I can see how Grooby believes this is a good way of updating. It does provide for quicker updates plus more content which a lot of people probably want. Personally, I can handle one update a week with a full length strip, masterbation, to cum shot video and maybe one hardcore scene as opposed to 3-4 updates a week with other content. But, I can see others wanting the other way as well. It's all open for debate for sure.
As far as you stating that you will get negative responses for not liking the site, I believe that it is your review and you clearly state the reasons why you feel negatively about the site. So, don't feel like you are doing something wrong by doing such a review.
As for my review, I want to re-join when I get the chance and do a re-review with all the considerations and conversations I've had with others and the webmaster to get a better and more complete review. But, I like your review as it stands and I hope to see more reviews from you from the TS niche which has only a small fanbase here at PU.

Honestly, I always knew I'd rejoin this site. While me and the webmaster seanchai have seemed to 'bump heads' in the past, it was by no means that I did not like the site or it's content. Honestly, to be doing a shemale site strictly with true Japanese TS models is very proactive and I commend Grooby for taking on this task. Getting Japanese TS DVD's to the USA are about $30-$50 USD a movie which contain 3-5 scenes and you can pay Grooby about the same to get plenty of the same models that appear on these DVD's. While I still may not like the updating style that this company does, I still understand why they do it and seanchai did make a comment how once a site is up for so long, the masterbation to cumshot videos become quite high in content. I have only joined this one site from grooby (I'm waiting for some extra money to purchase their grooby ticket thing making sites about $19.95 a pop) and when they were fairly new, so the content was so low by the time I got all of it in about 2 weeks, I was waiting for updates and waiting my last two week stay for a nonexistant cumshot video pissed me off at the time.
Thanks for the heads up and let me know your thoughts about the site and it's updates. I remember reading the blog a few months ago and they talked about bringing Marin (YUMMY) back for an update with one of her friends who looked pretty good herself.

After a few talks with the webmaster I don't think he wants to change anything and feels that his way of updating are what the majority of people want. However, I think the place would get even more pleased members if they did full length updates, even if it was one a week. Maybe two since models from South America and Thailand are more easier to get (therefore their south american/american and thai targeted sites could be two a week with full videos) but keep the Shemale Japan site at one a week because it is harder to get models. I like the shemale japan site and can account for the site doing a great job as far as getting legit japanese models and displaying them because getting TS DVDs from Japan are like $40-$60 a pop (in US currency) and you can get a wide range of scenes for the same price on their site. However, the webmaster states that his members like this way of updating and believes that our way of thinking may be in the minority. I'm all for having one full strip and masterbation scene, one whole blowjob scene, or one whole hardcore scene instead of like 3-4 updates of each of these scenes. I think the hardcore shoots were always one full updated video from I remember, so that's done right if I am correct in my assumption. I have never been a member of shemalestrokers, I have a few of his DVD's and found he does good camera work. It is on my list to join. Nice sharing ideas and thoughts with you and welcome to PU as a fellow TS lover that are too rare around here :)

I understand what your saying, but you can't have all ways.
Under what you want - which is a cum shot in every shoot, we could only provide about 4 sets per week instead of the 7-8 now. We couldn't do 8 cum shot sets a week, the budget just doesn't allow it. Also as plenty of members aren't as interested in the cum shot but other aspects ... we'd lose them, further hindering.
Just click on the ones on the new search feature that say, "cumshot" and ignore the rest!
I'm not trying to be obtuse but your criticism although makes sense to you, couldn't really be doable. I don't know any site that puts up 7-8 US model cumshots per week?
Thanks again for your explanation and feedback.,

Thanks for the review and comments.
I'd like to clarify a few points:
1. We do not focus on quantity over quality. We do focus on showing a wide range of transgenders, so not all may be to your taste but appeal to others. This doesn't mean it's poor quality material. We update about 7-8 sets per week so we hope to get at least a good handful that appeal to each member.
2. You are correct in stating we are mainly a solo site, HOWEVER, we update a full hardcore scene as well as all the solos, every 2 weeks, featuring some of the best models in the USA. These are 150 photos + and usually 20-30 mins of edited, HD 640x480 quality WMV's. These models are not cheap Brazilian content but all American. Given that these scenes are what many companies put out on DVD's - and that you get 26+ a year, it's really fairly good amount of hardcore in addition. However, if your looking for a specific hardcore site, then there are better Grooby options.
3. Your point about us splitting sets is entirely mis-guiding. We shoot usually 2 very different solo sets of the same model, maybe in a schoolgirl uniform on a bed for the 1st set, and then in lingerie, different hair, etc. with a different background. Each set is unique in it's own right and appeals to people with different fetishes, not just the cum fetish which you have. Each set has 100+ photos, full nudity, erections, spread ass and a full video with it. YES, only in one of the sets will the model cum - as few models can cum twice within a few hrs. As we show 7-8 models a week, usually 3-4 are from the first set, and 3-4 from the second "cumshot" set.
4. Stating the site is expensive, is misleading also. We're cheaper than some of our competitors showing less quality material, we show 32+ US/European models per month all with plenty of material. Look at the price of DVD's and then compare to what you are getting on Shemale Yum. We also have plenty of discount options available if you click our pay by mail, join button that brings the sites down to under $19.99 a month. The added bonuses of discounts on other sites of ours, and being one of the most honest companies in the business (no-prechecked crossales, excellent customer service, etc.) really make this on of the few sites, that does give you complete value for money.
Our forum area is now free and we have quite a few girls chatting there, check it out on the site and see why we have more members than any other TS site, why we've been the top site for over 12 yrs, and why more models work for us than any other TS company.
Thanks again.

The review is not bad at all and well founded. That's why this place is here: to provide useful info from users to get a better outlook and discussions on sites that we love or hate. These are your opinions and I agree with them on the most part. This company (grooby) does provide great sites in this small and great niche (TS) but I have always thought their updating policy was by far not the best approach. Thanks for your thoughts and review, hope you can provide some more in the future.

I have to agree with your points 100%. I am not a fan of places that goes with the quantity of quality aspect. The breaking up of videos can be a burden when you are waiting for updates because it appears I am in the same boat as you when it comes to cumshots, waiting stinks. It appears this system works for some and since the site has been around so much, there must be a lot of cumming content but I do feel your pain when it comes to how they update. Stripping updates just don't do it for me personally and I believe you feel the same way too.
Overall, good start and welcome to PU. I look forward to your other reviews.

Agreed! I was offered a $10 sub as a special "former member" - which I never was. The review is highly overrated, compared to the other high rated shemale sites. Very poor camera work, and most files are over five years old. This is probably the reason their tour doesn't show much of anything.
Not worth the $10 "special" offer.
