Bottom Line: |
I have to confess that Im always a bit surprised when I find sites like this so good. This really isnt the kind of porn I usually buy. I prefer harder-edged stuff from studios like Evil Angel and Kink.com. But maybe Im wrong about my own habits because I really, really like this site. The best comparison I can think of for this site is X-Art: the women are exceptionally beautiful, the production values are exceptionally high, and the sex is sensual. This site is a great option for couples looking for something they can both enjoy.
The site is relatively new, with the oldest uploads being added on August 28, 2012. With 133 videos and 110 photo sets available some may see the site as too small, but that position would be to completely ignore the low price of $20 per month and the overall quality of the site. The site continues to grow regularly with a new video being added every two days and a new photo set being added on alternate days (mostly, anyway).
Videos are available primarily as mp4s (480x360, 640x360, 960x540, 1280x720HD and 1920x1080HD) with one WMV available at 1280x720HD. I downloaded the largest mp4s and those played at a bitrate of more than 7500kb/s and 23fps. Subjectively they look amazing. Keeping with the natural and sensual feeling of the site, the scenes are shorter than found on some other sites because theyre a more realistic length. There is some music to start the scene but that quickly fades. None of the scenes were overacted with fake moaning.
The videos have high production quality with lighting, sound and editing all being top tier. An issue some might have with the models is their lack of variation. They are almost exclusively 18-22, petite and Caucasian. If you like that general type of model then its safe to say that they are also incredibly beautiful. There is a good mix of American and European / Russian models too. The videos are a mix of solo girl, g/g, b/g and some multiples. In the multiples with a male, the women outnumber the man.
The photos are available in three sizes (12800x800), 2000x1333 and 5600x3600). Theyre available as zips or singles. The number of photos per set varies but the average seems to be around 150.
The technical bits of the site are well done too. The layout is simple and effective and you can easily sort by photos and videos, and by tags. Streaming and download links are easy to use. The site supports download managers and I saw some of the highest download speeds Ive ever had while downloading porn.
Two points which are highly subjective and arent factored in to the score: 1) there is only one b/g anal sex scene on the site with both photos and videos; 2) facials are rare here: I like seeing facials and in this case I miss them more since several of the male models are channelling their inner Peter North with massive shots. Im guessing the lack of facials is because the site is otherwise couples-oriented and most women arent as into facials as guys are.
Im obviously highly recommending this site after what I wrote above. It is some incredibly sensual porn with some stunningly beautiful women who are presented with high production values on a well laid-out site that has fast download speeds. Some may see it as small, but even ignoring the fact that it is growing regularly it is still a great value for the high quality and reasonable price. |

Pros: |
- Huge collection of innovative videos
- Unique niche
- Multiple download options
- Photos available
- Beautiful models
- Hardcore sex in BDSM settings |
Cons: |
- Limited search function
- Organization could be improved
- File names vary and are of limited use
- No tags assigned to videos
- Some missing scenes |
Bottom Line: |
TTOO was the first Kink site I joined several years back and it remains my favourite. Most BDSM sites put a woman in bondage and inflict some pain. Some sites have a unique theme (Water Bondage) but the underlying premise is the same. TTOO is different: there is bondage, humiliation and pain, but the premise is the training of a submissive woman. The niche is the making of a sub, not what can be done after the sub is created.
The traditional TTOO shoots are broken down into days, with the normal training regime being conducted over four days. The intensity of the training is increased as each day passes. Bondage, humiliation, demeaning work, pain and training are all here. Sex occurs in the shoots. The sex is very well done but isnt the main focus: it occurs as part of the training, not just for the sex itself. The end product is near four hours of some intense video per shoot with exceptional production values.
In the past couple of years TTOO has added a new kind of shoot to keep things interesting. This is still about training, but theyll bring in multiple girls to audition to be trained. These can last from one to four days and involve much of the same kinds of training as the main scenes, but have an extra element of competition. These share the usual high production standards that Kink has. These are innovative and a welcome addition to the site.
The technical stuff is standard for all Kink sites. Each scene has its own page where the video can be streamed or downloaded. Downloads are available in either WMV or Mp4 format. Two resolutions are available for both formats. The highest resolution for both comes in at 1280x720.
Like all Kink sites, TTOO offers photos as singles and zips, but this really isnt a photo site so I wont go into any detail.
Im a HUGE fan of the Kink sites and I may have been blind to some faults because of that. The faults are fairly minor but just look more serious given the overall quality of the site. I think that for a site to be exceptional it has to provide excellent porn, make that easily available to members and has to be well organized. Obviously the first element is the most important, and Kink delivers: this is incredible porn. They succeed in the member access by allowing download managers and having servers that never slow down and give some of the highest download speeds Ive encountered. Where Kink falls down is in site organization.
To keep this succinct, here are my specific concerns:
- Limited search function the search function is limited and doesnt work well. The problem appears that when you search a term the only thing it searches is the scene title, not the performers. So searching for star X wont get you a scene if the scene is titled Rope Slut. You can search the model index but that isnt great either. You can locate scenes on specific Kink sites but you cant download them from there. The solution is to take a few key words from the title and go back to the main site page and search those terms.
- File names vary and are of limited use this is likely subjective, but the file naming convention has no standardization. If you want to have any hope of organizing the scenes into related groups youll need to do it as you download. One bright note is that each scene has a unique shoot number as part of the name and that can be searched. The issue is you may download 1234_Bobbi as the Day 1 scene in Bobbi Starrs training, and then download 1100_Bobbi_S as Day 2. The problem is that unless you rename the files as you go, the Bobbi in day 1 might not be Bobbi Starr, and if youre sorting your files numerically youre apt to get Day 1 and Day 2 mixed up. In most instances, models last names arent included as part of the file. I think a file-naming standard that captured the shoot number, models full name and day of the shoot would work much better.
The lack of a search function and odd naming are bad enough when dealing with the traditional multi-day shoots, but organizing some of the multi-girl, multi-day shoots is a lot of work.
While this sounds like Im being overly fussy, keep in mind that TTOO goes out of its way to produce multi-day shoots. These are amazing, but grouping the whole shoot together is a lot of work and their own file names make organizing the files difficult.
Other more minor concerns are the lack of tags. Im not saying that they need tags for everything, but for narrow, specific and hard to find niches they could work. Finally, while rare, there are missing scenes. The training scenes lose continuity when a day is missing.
The bottom line is this: when you weigh the good things about TTOO against the things that need improvement there is no contest. This is compelling, unique porn with stunning models in high-quality scenes. The negatives pale in comparison. If you have even a passing interest in BDSM Id highly recommend a membership. |

Pros: |
- 650+ videos
- Many big name stars appear
- Updates approximately every four days with the addition of a new scene
- Good variation in age, body type, tattoos/ no tattoos
- Variety of ways to download and view the videos
- Streaming is available

Cons: |
- Probably a bit extreme for many
- Some may not like the price |
Bottom Line: |
Full disclosure: I think Kink.com is likely the best online porn company in existence, but Ill do my best to stay objective
Obviously with any website if you dont have an interest in the material being offered then youre likely not going to like it. That is especially true for a site like this where the material offered is definitely not mainstream porn. If you dont like extreme BDSM then you definitely wont like this site, but I trust that you can still appreciate the effort that Kink puts into the scenes.
Device bondage is just that: the scenes all involve a female submissive being put into bondage by using various devices rather than more traditional ropes. Kink has amassed quite an impressive collection of implements to immobilize the models. Once immobilized the model is subjected to some further torment and in most cases there are forced orgasms. Actual sex does occur, but not in every shoot. Many of the Doms are females.
This may or may not be new since I last looked at this site, but I find that there are more big-name porn stars here. Amber Rayne appears to have shot a bunch of scenes in the past while and there are other stars that I wouldnt expect to see on an extreme BDSM site. Examples of this are Marie McCray, Sensi Pearl and Kaylee Hilton.
The scenes tend to follow a set formula: the scene begins with an interview where the viewers can see that this is 100% consensual. Then the scene is broken down into three segments so the girl isnt in one device for the entire scene. This adds a lot of variety and keeps the scenes from becoming dull. The interviews have been polarizing here at PU and Kink uses them on all their sites. I suspect that they do this more to appease the puritans and provide some measure of legal protection, but the frequent criticism of them is that including them at the first of the video can kill the sinister mood. I tend to agree with that and would prefer the interviews to be at the end or even as a separate file. But since theyre easily skipped it isnt that big a deal.
As of this writing there are more than 650 scenes and updates are posted approximately every four days with one scene being added each time.
This could be a good or a bad thing, depending on how you view it, but the models on the site dont all look alike. There is a good mix of stars and lesser-knowns, ages range from 18+ to over 40. There are models with lots of tattoos and models without tattoos. The site seems to want to appeal to as broad an audience as possible.
Another new element (which I may just have not noticed before) resolves one of the few complaints Ive had about this site. I wish that theyd include more behind-the-scenes material and show the model being put into the devices rather than just start with the model already restrained. The site has posted a few live shoots where the cameras are left rolling as the model is put into the devices and the production staff communicates with members watching the show live. There arent many of these live shoots, but it does give a glimpse into the inner workings of the site and I hope that the site continues to add them.
Being a Kink site, the technical bits are all up to or better than industry standards. Each scene has its own page and you can either stream or download the video. Downloads are available in either WMV or Mp4 format. Two resolutions are available for both formats. The highest resolution for both comes in at 1280x720. The bitrates are a bit different between the formats but both are approximately 7000kb/s. Both play at 30fps.
The site allows download managers and I didnt experience any of the links timing out. Download speeds are a bit faster than Im used to at other sites.
Perhaps the one thing that many prospective members might take issue with is the price. I agree that price is important, but price has to be taken in context too. I think that the price, when weighed against the value of the site, is very fair: this isnt cookie-cutter porn. This is all exclusive, with mostly top-name models, in a dungeon-like building and excellent production values. Kink has some of the highest production values of any porn company and this stuff cant be cheap to make. If price is an issue, be sure to sign up for emails from them because they occasionally offer membership deals. Also, once youre a member of one Kink site you get discounts on the other sites. An element to the value debate is that Kink isnt a network. Each specific site requires a separate membership. Given the high production values and exceptionally high quality of the scenes on all of the sites, I dont think this detracts from the value.
Device Bondage continues to do almost everything very well, and since I was last a member there have even been a few improvements. Even at full price the site is a great value if you like whats offered. |

Pros: |
- Large site that continues to grow
- Part of the Kink.com family of sites
- Excellent value for the price (it is worth every dime)
- Updates weekly with one scene added
- Many well-known American and European stars
- Some lesser known models
- Beautiful models
- Innovative site
- Unique site, in the true sense of that word
- 186 shoots as of this writing
- Picture available (singles and zips) |
Cons: |
- Photo zips are not of the full set (you need to download several zips to get the full shoot) |
Bottom Line: |
Yes, I know this is my fourth review of this site but Ill try to keep it interesting and informative.
Its tough to compare PD to anything else on the internet. It seems to be in a class by itself. The same can be said for many Kink sites. They take a common BDSM niche and add a wrinkle to it that makes it more interesting. And they add in production values that are among the best in the business (I think they are the best, but I dont want to bait a reader for an argument).
As I write this there are 186 scenes posted with another one due today or tomorrow. One scene is added each week. The format is unchanged: the scenes can be roughly divided into two classes, those shot in the U.S. and those shot in Europe. The scenes shot in Europe really push the limits of public nudity, and I dont mean that in a negative sense. With some European countries not having the same hang-ups about nudity that we prudish North Americans do there is always a segment of the scene where the model is exposed, used and abused in a very public environment. One of the elements that, for me, makes public nudity alluring is seeing the publics reaction. Sites that edit that out, or make the nudity seem commonplace lose, in my opinion, all the heat. That isnt the case with PDs European shoots. Even though these scenes are shot in places where public nudity doesnt have passersby running to the nearest policeman or priest, PD is able to get the heat level up and keep it up. One of the usual reactions, which I think adds to the heat, is that people pull out their cellphones and start taking pictures. Maybe Im weird (okay, thats almost certain) but that adds a lot to the realism and heat in these scenes.
The U.S. scenes used to be mostly shot in Kinks location in San Francisco. These are hot too, but the public element comes from bringing the public in to the Armories where the environment is controlled rather than taking the model out to the public. This is obviously safer, but in the past while Kink has become more daring in their American shoots. They arent public in the same sense as the European scenes, but they are occur in more public spaces like bars and sex shops where access can be controlled. There are some truly public shoots, such as a scene shot partially at the Folsom Street Fair which probably pushes the limits for American tolerance.
PD has a great variety of models. Youd expect given the nature of the site that it would have mostly fetish models who are known for this kind of work, but there are a number of U.S. and European porn stars who make an appearance too. (The scene with Jada Stevens in a gas station is worth the membership fee itself) Im not too sure about some of the European models as I dont follow many of them, but Im assuming that many of them are popular porn stars. One constant is even though there is a variety of body types among the models they are all beautiful. I suspect that PD is able to attract well-known and beautiful models is in no small part a testament to Kinks reputation for quality.
One possible downside for some people (though I dont list this as a con since it is so subjective) is that the male talent tends to be the same in each scene. Thats no issue for me, but if you happen to not like Steve Holmes, Mark Davis or James Deen then this may detract from the site.
Being a Kink site, the technical stuff is well done. Each scene offers a trailer, photos and video. Video is available as a stream or downloadable as a WMV (HD), WMV, MP4 (HD) and in sizes for mobile devices. I downloaded the WMV HD scenes and they come in at 1280x720 at 7200kb/s and 30fps. Theyre in Codec 9. Subjectively they look great.
The photos are available in two resolutions (800x533 and 1200x800). Theyre available as singles or zipped. The one thing that I think Kink could do better is offer the entire series of photos as a single zip. Im not sure why, but they break the scene into sub-scenes and offer zips of each of those. I have no issue with that (though I dont understand why they do it) but they should offer the full set as one zip too.
The subjects of degradation and humiliation come up on the forums and in comments here a lot and tend to be almost universally panned by PU members. For people who like BDSM and know Kink.com, this isnt news, but for those who dont know them, this is BDSM done right. People like Max Hardcore and the lads at Facial Abuse degrade and humiliate women for their own pleasure. Kink, including PD, degrade and humiliate women for the womans pleasure and their pleasure is obvious whether a non-submissive understands that or not.
The bottom line is that PD isnt for everyone, but if you like BDSM in a public environment this is pretty much your only option. The good news is that even though PD is in a class of one, the site is excellent and is an excellent value. I highly recommend a membership. |

Bottom Line: |
This site has been getting some attention lately, with a review just last week, so I hope I can add some new information to whats already here.
I have no idea why I had never heard of this site before because it is large and very well done. It offers a great value at the TBP/PU discount price. I went into it thinking it was a mostly solo girl site but I was wrong. Unlike many other sites that might claim this, this site really does offer something for just about everyone. There are solo, g/g, multiples, toys, b/g, anal, peeing, fisting, indoor and outdoor scenes. One consistency is the models they are almost all young, Caucasian (Easter European and Russian) and petite. There are a few models with larger breasts, but the majority are petite and proportional. Not all models do g/g or b/g. The site has material for about 300 models. Some of those have only a handful of scenes / sets, but many have a large library.
Each scene usually has a video and a photoset with it, but this site splits material with other sites on its network so the photos may be here and the video on 18 Only Girls, or the other way around.
Videos are offered as WMV (Codec 9) and mp4. WMVs are usually offered in one resolution with 720p being the most common. Older videos are obviously lower. There are some scenes at 1080p. Mp4s are usually offered in three resolutions with the highest usually being 720p, though there are some with 1080p. Bitrates are very high, with most over 10,000kb/s. File sizes can be large with most being near 1GB, but there are some that are bigger than 2GB. Obviously, selecting a lower res will reduce the size. There are about 800 videos on the site now, most average between 20 to 30 mins. Subjectively, the videos look clear and crisp. Lighting and sound are very professional. This is not an amateur operation.
Photos are also available and are usually shot on the same set as the videos. The photos are usually offered in multiple resolutions. While there are some at 2666x4000, most arent that high. Subjectively, they look good, with the higher res looking the best, obviously. Zips are offered. Number of photos per set varies.
The site updates daily with a new video or photoset being added. Some days see two updates.
There is a search function (though I didnt find it all that accurate), and each scene has links to themes. You can also sort by model.
For me, the big selling point of this site has to be the models. Im usually more into U.S. models doing mainstream hardcore, so this site was a real eye-opener for me. The models are stunning. They are all naturally beautiful and many have slight imperfections that dont get hidden, which makes them more appealing. Makeup is understated too. Some of the models have a unique look wholesome even. Whoever lines up the talent deserves a pay raise.
There is a TBP/PU discount offered, and you can buy a membership to this site or for an additional $10 you can add the whole network. I strongly recommend spending that extra $10 for two reasons. It makes the membership an excellent value, and the same models appear on the other sites so if you like a particular model youll be leaving material behind without access to the other sites. The other sites are Ivana Fukalot, Skinny Super Girl, 18 Only Girls (this is the other large site here), Alice Wonder Bang, Lay the Kat, Sasha Fucks Dasha, Natasha Shy, Vika Nymph, Sasha Blonde, Beata Porn, Kamilla 18, The Sperm Lover and Policeman. Ill post some stats and a brief review as a comment on some of those that might help you decide whether you want to get full access.
The site isnt perfect, but it is close. This may be nitpicking, but I wish the scene / set names included the model name. These models are all new to me it was frustrating to see a model I like and not know who she is. I resolved that by being careful to catalogue them by model, but some indication would be helpful.
I also had some membership problems that you can read in the comments, but those were all resolved thanks to a helpful webmaster. And to be fair, with most of those issues it seemed to be only me who had the problems.
If the site has an Achilles heel, it is that many PU members report that download speeds can drop during peak times. I experienced that too. From a comment made by the webmaster, it sounds like the problem is with their third-party network supplier and not the site.
The site is technically very well done. It looks good and it isnt overly busy. Its simple, and I mean that as a compliment. The material on the site is also well done. And the models are some of the most beautiful women Ive ever seen. Not only would I highly recommend this site to anyone who likes models who look like this, Im going one step further: this will be a site that I come back to regularly. |

Pros: |
- Huge collection of titles (close to 60,000)
- Affiliated with Adult DVD Empire a company with a long history and good reputation
- Various options for viewing or downloading (PPM, download and stream)
- Two or three (depending on the age of the title) quality options
- Speeds are up to industry standards
- Excellent customer service |
Cons: |
- Can be an expensive way to collect titles
- Limited search capabilities
- Least expensive option (1 day rental) is streaming only
- Web name is very similar to a blacklisted site |
Bottom Line: |
First a quick warning: this site is Adult Empire.com. Dont confuse it with Adult Empire which has been blacklisted here at PU. That confusing name is unfortunate since this PPV/VOD site is very good.
I have a love/hate relationship with PPV/VOD sites. On the love side, a site that offers a lot of titles is an excellent opportunity to view titles that arent available anywhere else. On the hate side, they can be like crack for the pornuser in that you only get a quick fix and then have to dig out your wallet again.
PPV/VOD sites arent like other porn sites. They dont offer exclusive material, and unlike sites like Videobox, you have to pay for everything you watch. So why bother? Because a good PPV/VOD will have a huge number of titles that arent usually available elsewhere,. Its a great option to see some titles that you otherwise wouldnt have access to.
This site is relatively new and appears to be a spin-off of Adult DVD Empire. I say that because my wish list at the older site was migrated to the new site. But the old site still offers PPV/VOD, and some of the titles are the same on the two sites though the new site has better pricing options. Of the PPV/VOD sites I use, my favorite has always been Adult DVD Empire, and the new site offers all the same quality and variety at a price that is often lower.
As with most PPV/VOD sites, there are many options available depending on how you want to view the title. You have a pay-per-minute option, the option to buy a download (most with no DRM) and then there is a streaming rental option. The big advantage that this site offers is a one day streaming rental for just $1.99. If youre familiar with PPV/VOD sites youll know this is a great deal. My preference would be a one day download rental, but thats just a personal preference.
There are negatives, but to be fair, I suspect that most of those are beyond the control of the site. What the site can control is generally great. The one big flaw is the lack of an advanced search function. The parent site has a great search function, so why that wasnt just migrated over is beyond me. What the site cant control (I suspect) is what studios will do business with them, and what those studios will charge to the site. Many studios offer decent pricing, but a few (Im looking at you, Jules Jordan) seem to think that their material is worth a lot more than other stuff. Obviously the site has to pass those costs on. But as a consumer, I can just choose to not pay those high prices. (Up yours, Jules!)
PPV/VOD sites have their limitations, but if you really want to see a title that isnt available elsewhere, this may be an option. If it is an option, Id recommend starting at this site because the rental prices can be very low. There may be lower prices at other PPV/VOD sites, but unless the price difference is huge Id recommend doing business with this site as the quality is excellent. |

Pros: |
- A very unique niche
- Part of the Kink.com network
- Over 500 scenes
- Updates several times a week
- Multiple download options
- Pictures available (individual or zipped)
- Fast download speeds (1.4MB/sec on a single download)
- Interesting mix of amateurs, BDSM models and mainstream porn models
- Excellent value |
Cons: |
Can get a bit repetitive |
Bottom Line: |
I realize that Device Bondage might not be for everyone, but if you have a bondage interest this is an excellent site. The sites claim to fame is that they dont use traditional rope bondage, but, as the name suggests, they use a variety of other means to bind the models. The most common is a set of pipes and clamps that can be used in countless ways. It all makes for quite a unique site.
Most of the scenes follow an effective formula: first there is an interview (to make it abundantly clear that there is full consent this isnt Max Hardcore). Then they move to a bondage scene with some S+M thrown in. Usually a second bondage and S+M scene follows. At some point there will be forced orgasms. Finally, the scene closes with another interview. The basic formula is also followed where there are multiple models.
As of this review, there are now well over 500 scenes on the site. They continue to update several times a week. Adding the uniqueness and creativity on the site to the volume of material makes this site an excellent value.
On the tech side, this site meets the high standards of all other Kink.com sites. There are both HD and SD wmv files, an HD mp4 and a format for IPods. You can download the entire scene as one file in the listed formats, or you can download it in segments. Pictures are also available individually or as a zipped set.
My only two criticisms of this site are subjective. First, at its core, this is really a non-sex site. Mostly the only sex is forced orgasms on the models while in bondage. This is excellent stuff, but it isnt something that Im really into. Kink.com has sites, like Sex and Submission that are more to my liking. Second, Id really like to see the women being bound, either as part of the scene or part of a behind-the-scenes view. All the scenes start with an interview, and then move immediately to the model in bondage. Please Kink, add some BTS here!
Finally, the listed price may seem high, but consider the cost and effort that goes into the site when deciding to join. This site doesnt hire a male a female and stick them in a bedroom setting to fuck. There is a lot of creativity that goes into these scenes. It is definitely a good value at full price. Having said that, there are ways to avoid paying full price. Kink.com usually offers a discount on a second site and having memberships to two Kink.com sites isnt a bad thing. Also, register as a Kink.com member (free) and get on their mailing list. They regularly email special offers and deals on this and other Kink sites.
The bottom line is that this is an excellent niche site. It is unique, it is creative and it exceeds industry norms for the technical stuff. If you have an interest in BDSM, you owe it to yourself to have a look. |

- Very user-friendly easy to navigate and download
- Part of a larger network of BDSM sites
- All exclusive videos
- Excellent value for the monthly fee
- Discount access to other sites on the network
- Excellent customer service
- Regular updates
- 77 scenes as of this review

Cons: |
None. There is nothing I would change about this site. |
Bottom Line: |
I wouldnt normally write a review so close on the heels of another member doing so, and especially since I agree with most of what Pat362 wrote, but I want to add some details.
First, as Pat362 also noted, this site isnt for everyone. Everything Butt is an anal-themed site on a wheelbarrow full of steroids. Kink.com is a network well known for its BDSM-themed material, and this site adds a BDSM element to anal play. For someone like me, who is a dedicated, lifetime ass man, and a fan of BDSM, this site is pure gold.
One thing this site is not is an anal sex site. This isnt like Ass Traffic where the focus is on anal sex. Everything Butt is a site about extreme anal play. Featured here are enemas, bondage, strap-ons, fingers, fists and some very large toys. Only on rare occasions do we see a male get to join in the fun for some anal sex. Men appear more often as in control of the situation rather than as active sexual participants. In some of the scenes there are women solo, administering their own enemas, using toys on themselves, and sometimes fisting themselves. In the remainder of the scenes, there are multiple women with at least one taking the Dominant role over the other(s).
As Pat362 noted, there are several models who appear a number of times. Pat362 considers this a bit of a negative, and part of me agrees with this, but not all of me. When the repeat models are stars like Bobbi Starr, Amber Rayne, Dana DeArmond and Felony all certified anal queens I cant really complain. To see a model like Amber Rayne, who is always on her game, enjoying some really intense anal play is a sight to behold. Id rather see a model who is capable of the intensity of the play than a model who cant rise to the occasion. I think in fairness to Pat362 Id say that I agree that while there are several models who appear a lot on the site, the scenes are different enough that it doesnt get boring.
Everything Butt is part of the Kink.com network of sites, so everything Ive written about them before also applies here. I think that Kink.com is probably the best porn company on the internet. The variety of their work, the inventiveness and uniqueness that they bring to their sites, the size of their sites, the value, and their customer service are all second to none. All of that is on display at Everything Butt.
I also agree with Pat362 that the pictures arent perfect, but I think that is due to the fact that this site and other Kink sites are more video oriented. I suspect that the photos are secondary, and this may be because there is no way that a photo can convey the intensity of some of these scenes.
If youre an ass man, and like to dabble a bit on the dark side of BDSM, you owe it to yourself to check out this site. |

Pros: |
This is the mother of all video sites
Like having an adult video shop right in your home
Wide variety of videos available to suit almost all tastes
Many studios are represented
You can download a whole scene or just take a custom made clip |
Cons: |
Get a bigger harddrive - you'll need it unless you have good self-control |
Bottom Line: |
I've been a member for approximately 3 years and have no plans to leave any time soon. Sure, not all the videos are to my taste, but I can live with that. If you join now there are so many videos that you'll be busy for weeks if not months. On top of that every 5 hours a new video is posted. Sure, Videobox has people who complain, but most of the complaints are that once in a while a video gets posted that they don't like so they have to wait. Big deal. There's enough here to keep anyone happy for a long time.
This site is HIGHLY recommended |

Bottom Line: |
As anyone who has read my reviews and comments here for the past 13 years will know, I’m a big fan of anal scenes. Further, if you add beautiful, petite young women into the mix then you can rest assured that I’ll be interested. However, for some reason, Simply Anal never made it onto my radar until recently.
I’ll have to confess that Simply Anal is also a bit different from many of the anal-themed sites that I usually join. In that it’s more couples porn or glamcore. Is this a bad thing? Not at all! I really enjoyed the scenes on this site even if they were softer than I would normally watch.
Because the site focuses more on sensual sex there is a slower pace and every scene features foreplay. While there may be the occasional scene buried in here where it is exclusively anal from beginning to end, all of the scenes that I watched included vaginal sex as well.
Another thing that makes this site a bit different from what I usually subscribe to is that there is an almost 50-50 split between B/G and G/G videos. But, because this site is called Simply Anal, even the girl/girl scenes feature anal play. I rarely collect G/G scenes but I make an exception when there is anal play involved, so I really liked this aspect of the site.
While I don’t collect a lot of European porn there are several models who I do collect scenes with. These would be models such as Alexis Crystal, Gina Gerson and Sylvia Dellai. Overall, however, all of the models have the look that I like – young and petite. The downside for others it may be that there is a lack of diversity: I don’t think I came across any model of colour here.
While this isn’t entirely on point, I did see Ani Black Fox (billed here as Any Black Fox) on a cam site recently and was really struck by her. She has a scene here that I find to be particularly erotic and, for what it’s worth, it’s as if seeing her on a cam site and interacting a bit has created a different level of interest. My exposure to her work before this was on much harder sites such as German Goo Girls and Legal Porno. I really liked seeing her in something quite different.
One of the primary reasons that I don’t download a lot of European porn is because many of the models don’t speak English. I find that dialogue in a scene can really add to it. It gives the viewer more of an insight into the models. Here, that problem does pop up. While many of the big-name European models are fluent in English there are many here who don’t seem to speak it at all. There are entire scenes where the models have no verbal communication whatsoever. (Oddly, this even occurred in Ani Black Fox’s scene even though she is fluent in English.)
Production values are high. Lighting, sound and editing is all top-tier.
There are currently 142 videos here with a new scene being added approximately every two weeks. There is a 50/50 split between B/G and G/G scenes so if you prefer one or the other there is lots to enjoy.
Downloads are available in at least four resolutions: 320p, 480p, 720p and 1080p. Bitrates for all are usually slightly lower than on comparable sites but the videos look great. The added benefit is that file sizes are a bit smaller. Roughly 90% of the scenes also offer a 4K version. Something I found odd in 2021 is that all scenes also offer one WMV file.
Streaming is also available in the same resolutions as above, minus the 4K.
The site is easy to use and it’s easy to find something you like. You can sort scenes by most recent or recommended or you can search by model. The site also uses an extensive list of tags. I have to give full credit to the site for such an extensive list, but I also found it a bit overwhelming because with each scene there could be two or three dozen tags affiliated with it. But, they are unobtrusive so it isn’t too much of an issue.
I don’t normally collect photos but I have to admit that this site is geared to photo collectors almost as much as it is geared to video collectors. Photos are available as singles and zips in two resolutions: HQ 3400x 2200 and LQ 1000x666.
While this review is intended of the specific site, Simply Anal, and this site does stand on its own well, it’s important to note that it is part of the larger Puffy Network. This adds a lot to the value of the membership. Five additional sites are included.
I use a download manager and had no issues doing so here. I found downloads to be consistently fast and stable. I didn’t encounter any limits.
The site bills through reputable billers so you can join with confidence.
The bottom line is that there is a lot to like here and it’s easy to recommend a membership. Whether you like B/G or G/G anal scenes, there are lots of each. Add in the 50% TBP discount and it’s an offer you can’t refuse! It’s a great site that’s part of a great network with some beautiful models at an amazing price. It’s definitely worth checking out. |

Bottom Line: |
I’m re-reviewing LP because the site has changed quite a lot since I last reviewed it and my opinion of it has changed a bit too.
LP remains one of the most controversial mainstream porn sites. One reason for that is what it offers is much more extreme than what is offered on other mainstream sites. Another issue people react to is that the site mostly operates on a business model that doesn’t include the typical subscription for a month of access to everything.
The system that LP uses is a ‘ticket’ system whereby you create an account with them and then are required to purchase tickets that you can then trade for scenes. It is also possible to buy the scenes individually with a credit card but the costs for this are more expensive than tickets. The number of tickets required to gain access to scenes varies widely, usually from 2 to 6.
The biggest downside to the ticket system is that it can get very expensive. I spent approximately $50 per month on this site for three years and still didn’t get all the scenes I wanted. However, I didn’t mind doing this because LP offers a unique product.
It does appear that LP is now offering a form of subscription. You can now subscribe to any of the individual studios that make up LP. What you get for a ‘subscription’ is access to that one studio only AND only access to what that studio uploads for the 30 days you’ve subscribed. That’s a serious limit.
Up until several years ago LP required an attestation that your credit card was valid. This is no longer required and you can buy tickets immediately after signing up.
The site itself is made up of several different studios under the LP umbrella. While there are nuance differences between each of the studios they are much more alike than they are different. The scenes have always pushed the boundaries towards the extreme edges of mainstream and over the past few years it appears that they have pushed even further. Most scenes feature more than just a male and female talent. They can have many different combinations though scenes with one woman and multiple men are very frequent. Almost all of the LP scenes added over the last few years feature anal sex. Vaginal sex, if it appears in any scenes, is simply an ad-on or is part of a double penetration. The anal sex is hard and rough.
Also over the past several years there has been a significant increase in the number of double (DAP) and even triple anal scenes. DAP is now commonplace.
None of the scenes have any setup or plot. The sex starts almost immediately.
There has been an increase in the number of scenes featuring women being peed on but for some reason this is edited out for the American market. (Yay Canada!)
The models are overwhelmingly from Eastern Europe and Russia though the last few years has seen a few American models. There aren’t many American models who are known for being this extreme.
As rough as the scenes are I’ve never seen anything even bordering on non-consent. I’ve bought and downloaded hundreds of LP scenes and can only think of a handful where the model looks overwhelmed.
Up until recently everything at LP was exclusive. It now appears that they are offering some softer scenes but these appear to be licensed from DDF. Don’t download the scenes from LP unless you only want one or two. A DDF subscription is likely to be better value for most. (More recently there appears to be an increase in the non-exclusive scenes so caution is advised.)
Last year LP underwent a major shakeup and it appears the dust is still settling. Two directors, one of them being a long-serving LP director was fired. There was some speculation that with the departure of these two directors LP could not keep up its update schedule. This may be a cause for more non-exclusive scenes.
Download speeds are often fast but I find times when the speeds are very slow, almost to the point where it’s best to leave and come back later. This is unacceptable for a company that charges this much for their porn.
In my first LP review I commented that the site was confusing. The site hasn’t changed but I retract that comment as I now find the search function and tags to be easy to use and effective.
Videos are offered in multiple resolutions and two different file types. VGA videos are offered though my preference has always been the MP4 files. Those are available in 720p, 1080p and 4K.
The bottom line is that this site isn’t for everyone. The porn is very rough (but not BDSM), almost all anal and even more than a few circus acts. To make matters worse, their business model is unique and not customer-friendly. Downloading LP stuff can get very expensive quickly. On the other hand, LP offers a lot of unique porn that appeals to a narrow viewer but if you’re one of those who like this style of porn then you owe it to yourself to check it out. |

- Large site
- Updates regularly

- Variation in level of tattoos and piercings
- Class-leading video quality in newer videos

Cons: |
- No zips for pics |
Bottom Line: |
The first time I joined this site I surprised even myself as Im not a big fan of tattoos and piercings. Or so I thought.
The site seems to be quite a bit different now than the last time I reviewed it. Back in 2009 when dracken commented on it, and even as recently as a year ago when I reviewed it, the site had a community feel to it, like it wasnt necessarily a professional porn site but a site owned and run by people into this lifestyle. (That was and still is highlighted by the obvious connection that Joanna Angel has with this site. Any of her fans NEED to get a membership here.) The site still has that feel to it with the blogs, a forum, event listings and chats, but it is clearly more professional now.
The last time I reviewed the site it was broken down into several sub-sites. Those are listed in my previous review if youre interested in seeing what those were. Those divisions seem to be gone now in favor of putting all the videos up on the main page and relying on a pull-down menu to sort by niche. This may be a personal thing, but I prefer the new way: all the scenes are right there and there are convenient ways to sort by star or niche.
The site is part of the Fame Digital family of sites. In my opinion, Fame has the porn Midas touch in that they nail the Holy Trinity for porn sites: the porn is incredibly hot with high production values, the site is well organized, and the porn is easy to access for streaming or downloads. The only caveat with Fame is that you need to track which of their billing companies you paid through because youll need to know that when it comes time to cancel.
Another way the site is different now is that they use a look more common to other Fame sites: the scene thumbnail opens into a page where all your options for streaming and downloads are in sub-menus. If youre familiar with any of Fames sites youll realize that this is both intuitive and easy to use. Also like other Fame sites, this one offers some of the widest choices for streaming and downloads. Other porn companies need to copy this. The oldest videos on the site date from 2008 and are available for download in either WMV or MP4 in 160p, 240p, 360p and 480p. Obviously these arent great, but they look okay and they were great when they were uploaded. The really good news, however, is that like most Fame sites, this site jumped into HD early: videos uploaded as early as mid-2009 offer both 720p and 1080p in MP4 format. This was way ahead of the curve for most adult sites in 2009. The icing on the cake is that however fame encodes its scenes, in either 720 or 1080 they look amazing. Some sites offer 1080 that still looks pixilated. Please Fame, if youre reading this please offer encoding lessons to other sites. Or just buy them out.
I downloaded the 1080p versions and those come in at 1980x1280 and 6800kb/s bitrate.
The site currently has 719 scenes of varying length. The scenes run the gamut from solo, POV, b/g, group, g/g, anal; in other words, just what youd expect from an adult site. The models also have some variation so depending on the look you like youre apt to find lots to satisfy you. The site updates frequently and regularly with several scenes being added weekly.
If the site has one glaring fault its that pics are still not offered in zips. I know this is primarily a video site, but for those who like to collect photos of their favorite models it would be a good idea to offer zips.
Download managers are supported and like other Fame sites this one has resolved the issue of short-duration time-outs. Links dont last forever, but they will last about an hour and that is a huge improvement over what was offered even a year ago.
So that leaves dealing with the 800lb gorilla in the room: that the models dont sport a mainstream look. If that is an absolute deal-breaker for you, then there is no way youd like this site. If, however, you have even a remote interest in this niche then I highly recommend checking this site out. The models are all really beautiful and but for the tattoos and piercings they look like the beautiful models that work in other parts of the porn industry. There are varying levels of body modifications too: not all the models are heavily tattooed and pierced; some are very light on both. Katie St. Ives, for example, is on this site and I doubt many would consider her a niche model.
The bottom line is that just in the past year this site has made some changes that, while subtle, have made a great site even better. Its a large and growing site that offers excellent quality (in production values and in how they look on your monitor or TV) at a discounted price and features unique-but-beautiful models. Whats not to like? I highly recommend joining. |

Pros: |
- Large collection of DVDs / scenes
- 23 sites
- Many top models
- Videos offered in multiple resolutions
- Supports download managers
- Increased time-out on links
- True HD looks excellent
- Updates regularly |
Cons: |
- Not a true network
- Membership can be tricky to cancel
- Update schedule can be confusing
- Updates loaded to more than one site
- Updates are available only as streaming for a few days before allowing downloads |
Bottom Line: |
Many of the opinions and details I wrote in my earlier review are still valid, but after re-subscribing to this site several times since I think it deserves a new review and a higher score.
The first thing to point out is that while this collection of sites is billed as a network, it really isnt in the true sense of the word. This network would work just as well, and probably better, if they just had one large site. Arguing against their classification as a network is the fact that each site isnt updated individually but a DVD is added regularly and added to one or several of the sites where that genre fits. That means that an update can often be found on several of the sites, and it also means that some of the sites only get rare updates.
The network is a group of 23 sites many of which cater to a specific niche. I included a list in my last review and that is pretty much still accurate though there have been a few sites added since.
I cant really pin down the update schedule as updates are added to the individual sites and cant be tracked as overall network updates. Adding to the confusion is that an update might be added to several sites at the same time.
This site (like the other Fame Digital sites) updates by allowing streaming only for several days. Im sure they have a good reason for updating this way, but as a subscriber who prefers to download it can be a bit annoying to have to check back regularly to see if a scene you want has been unlocked for downloading.
One big change for the network since I last reviewed it is worth noting. In the past a complaint I had with all of Fame Digitals sites was that while they allowed download managers those were difficult to use since the links timed out quickly. All the Fame Digital sites Ive subscribed to in the past few months now have much longer time outs on the links. I cant say how long for certain, but they seem to be at least an hour before they time out.
A negative to any Fame site now is that theyve made cancelling your membership more difficult. For anyone subscribing to any Fame site I strongly recommend that you keep your email confirmation as it will identify the link you need to follow to cancel. I just cancelled two Fame memberships and each had to be cancelled through a different site. To cancel you need to enter your username and password and a captcha. That seems insignificant, but the cancel process is more involved than it needs to be. I cant imagine why Fame has chosen this because so many of their sites are so good that Im sure they get a lot of repeat customers. I should also point out that while cancelling a membership a few weeks ago the cancel sites werent working and I had to use online chat. That worked fine, but the process took about 15 minutes.
This network, like all Fame sites, now offers everything they upload in HD. They list it as 1080, 720 and 540. I used to prefer WMV files and that meant that I couldnt download true HD scenes since those are only available as mp4s. Ive since switched to mp4 and since Im a big fan of a lot of the directors and actresses here I downloaded the best quality they had to offer. Those come in at 1920x1080 at 7,000 kb/s and 30fps. The downside is that the files are large, with some topping out over 3GB. The trade-off is that a lot of the scenes are long, running nearly an hour, and the video quality is incredible. This is among the best video quality Ive ever encountered. Ive seen other sites that have the same specs, but the videos arent nearly as crisp as these. However theyre encoded, Fame Digital is doing it right.
Members should note that there is some overlap with this network and the Evil Angel site. That can be bad if you have a membership to both, but it can also be good in that if youre looking for a specific title you can check both sites because it may be uploaded earlier to one site than the other.
The network allows prospective members to see everything that is available, but the preview pages dont allow you to sort by DVD title, only by scene. Once youve joined there is the option to sort by DVD.
A pro or con (depending on how you feel about this) is that once you subscribe to a Fame site youre on their mailing list. The bad news is that youll get a lot of email from them, but the good news is that youll get a lot of good offers. This network offers a TBP/PU discount, but many of the email offers were for a lower price than that.
The bottom line is that this is an excellent collection of sites that gives easy access to what they have. Download speeds are good, and there are a range of resolutions available including some top notch video quality. Much of what is offered here is harder than some PU members like, and anal sex is featured in a lot of whats offered, but if you like high quality porn with some of the top female talent working in porn today you cant go wrong here. |

Pros: |
- Huge collection of DVDs
- Many top studios
- TBP / PU discount
- Supports download mangers (with some limitations)
- None of the studios on the site are low-grade
- Something for most tastes
- Some unique and rare niches represented
- Many viewing and download options
- Many ways to sort the scenes |
Cons: |
- Some overlap with other Fame sites
- Links time-out too quickly
- Too many older scenes dont list the female talent
- No search function |
Bottom Line: |
Ive really liked and highly recommended most (if likely all) of the Fame sites that Ive reviewed and Fame Digital is no exception. This site offers a huge amount of high-quality porn for an amazing price.
For readers not familiar with any of the Fame sites, they offer DVD downloads from several major studios like Devils Film, Silverstone and Evil Angel. The same studios are represented here and there is some overlap with other Fame sites but unless youve recently been a member at several Fame sites youre still going to find a lot of material here that wasnt on the other sites.
The main page is simple and effective: you have a choice of displaying the available scenes by individual scenes or by DVD. There is a drop-down menu listing all the DVDs on the site and ability to sort by the usual porn themes. You can also view by studio or by model. There are a lot of options for sorting the huge amount of material here, but there is no way to specifically search for anything: there is no search function available. While this is certainly a shortcoming, the many different options for sorting minimize the need to search. In most cases you can still find what you want but you may need to use a few more steps than with just an effective search function.
The site currently has over 3350 DVDs. My thought is that a lot of sites that try to please all tastes generally fail, but this site offers a wide variety of porn but still remains appealing. Youll find all the usual porn niches here, like legal teens, anal, lesbian, etc., but youll also find a pretty substantial collection of transsexual and bisexual material. Youll also find rarer niches like pegging and grandmas. Im not into the niches that I just mentioned so I cant really give an opinion, but if youre specifically looking for some of them this site has them, but they arent the main attraction here. The site is by far a conventional site that just happens to have some different spices if youre so inclined. (And if youre like me and not so inclined, there arent enough of these niche DVDs that you feel cheated.) As for the more conventional porn, it runs the gamut from hard-hardcore (like Rocco Siffredi) to artcore (from the Daring Film studio.) Regardless of what your tastes are all the DVDs I downloaded have one thing in common: the production values are second to none in the industry. Unlike other sites that seem to promote quantity over quality, Fame Digital doesnt rely on filler.
One thing I especially liked about the site was the availability of older series and titles. Obviously the download options are fewer for these older scenes, but just having access to them is a big plus.
Like other Fame sites, there is no shortage of viewing options. Streaming is available in multiple resolutions, downloads are available in two formats (WMV and mp4) and in multiple resolutions. Obviously the resolution options are fewer with older material, but most of the newer DVDs offer the scenes in up to four WMV resolutions and up to 7(!!) mp4 resolutions and thats not counting separate downloads for mobile devices which offer a further number of resolutions. Many of the newer scenes offer both 720p and 1080p. Also on offer for newer scenes is 540p, which the site calls Web HD. This is an excellent option for people like me who watch most of their porn on a monitor. This is higher than the 480p that most sites offer (and is still offered here) without having to download a large 720p file. The 540p files come in at 960x540 at 1800kb/s and 30fps. The 720p come in at 1280x720 at 4800 and 30fps.
The site does offer photos but this is definitely NOT a photo site. The photos are shot during the scenes (but arent screencaps) and look good, but the main (unforgivable) flaw is that there are no zips.
The site isnt perfect but the flaws are so insignificant that they dont detract from the value. Like all Fame sites, download managers are supported but the links time-out fairly quickly so it isnt possible to queue up a lot of files at once. Older titles often dont list any performers, and with many of the European titles (like Roccos stuff) the female talent isnt always credited. There may be three girls in a scene but only one name is given. Minor, but still annoying.
The one flaw that I think really does detract from the site is that they frequently dont upload all the scenes from a DVD. In one case, for example, Tanner Mayes is the cover girl but her scene isnt available. (And Fame, I take that as a personal insult!)
The bottom line is that this is an exceptionally good value for the TBP/PU discounted price (and still good without it). This is a huge amount of high quality porn on a site with a simple but effective layout with multiple viewing and download options. I highly recommend joining. I know Ill be back. |

Pros: |
- Unique site
- Beautiful models from around the world
- Videos and photos
- Videos available in multiple formats and resolutions
- Photos available in zips and in multiple resolutions
- HD available in most scenes (as high as 1080)
- Great mix of solo, girl/girl and boy/girl hardcore
- Currently 139 models
- Supports download managers (with no obvious time-outs)
- Site updates regularly
- Might appeal to couples
- Bills through CC Bill |
Cons: |
- No search function or tags (please see comment on that below)
- BTS videos cant be downloaded |
Bottom Line: |
X-Art isnt a site that Id normally join because I prefer porn that has a harder edge to it, so I was pleasantly surprised that I liked this site as much as I did. The site has that elusive combination of stunning models, excellent technical elements and a user-friendly website. Many sites get two of those components right but few have them all. Im convinced that the sites that do get everything right do so because of site owners / webmasters who actually care about the material theyre producing and putting on their site.
The site currently has 139 models. Most of those models have both videos and photos but there are a few who only do photos. Many dont have a lot of material available but there are a few who have lots of material so it balances out.
There isnt a lot of variety in the models; theyre all Caucasian (with one or two Asians), young (18-25) and thin (but not skinny). This isnt a problem if, like me, you happen to like the type of models that the site selects, but if you prefer fuller-figured women or different races youll not be as happy with the site. There is a mix of nationalities too.
The models are naturally beautiful, not the airbrushed, heavily made-up models that many other sites feature. Unique features like freckles are allowed to shine through, giving even more appeal.
The site has many things going for it, but one thing that really sets them apart is the chemistry between the models in the lesbian and b/g hardcore scenes. The chemistry is obvious because it exists, and also because it doesnt exist in most other sites. In most other sites the overriding feeling that the viewer gets is that here are two people being paid to have sex. Obviously the models here are also being paid, but they seem to be into the sex too. This is an assumption, but Ill give credit to the models themselves and to the site staff who obviously play a role in creating and then capturing that chemistry. The chemistry in the scenes likely makes this a couples-friendly site.
The site offers lots of choice on how you can download or view the material. Videos can be streamed and downloaded. All videos have multiple options for downloads, though those vary depending on when the video was uploaded. The scenes are always available in WMV and Quicktime formats with lower resolutions for mobile devices being added more recently. WMVs and Quicktime videos are available in 960x540 and 1280x720 (5,000+ kbps) and in newer videos theyre also available in 1920x1080 (8500+ kbps). I download the WMVs and theyre in codec 7 and 30 fps. The videos are relatively short with the average being 10 to 12 minutes. A previous comment noted that these are too short, but I dont agree with that. The videos have a natural feel to them which lends itself to the shorter format. Subjectively, the videos look great.
The photos are also available in different resolutions 1200, 2000 and 4000 pixels. Theyre available as zips. The number of photos per set varies from a low of 30+ to a high of 120+ but the average set has about 80 photos in it.
The site updates daily on weekdays with either a video or photo set being added.
The site allows download managers (I use Free Download Manager) and there are no obvious timeouts.
An interesting feature is the use of original music in many of the scenes. Normally music isnt something that Id notice, but the choices here really do add to the feel of the scenes.
There isnt really anything to complain about, but I do have a couple of minor issues. I like behind-the-scenes clips especially on sites like this where it gives a chance to see more of the models personality. While BTS material is available here, and even has its own tab, I cant figure out how to download the clips. It appears that the only option is to stream them. Im assuming that the site made a conscious decision to do this, but I wish theyd make them available for download.
There isnt a search function available, nor are there tags. The videos can be sorted, however, depending on theme (solo, g/g, b/g). Normally Id criticize a site for such a glaring omission, but in this case Im not. The reason for that is that the site seems to be focused solely on the models. I realize Im making yet another assumption here, but it is possible that the site made a decision to not offer a search function or tags as a means of keeping the models more real. Thats how it feels anyway I appreciate stumbling on an incredible hardcore scene with a beautiful model and that makes me appreciate it more than if I could select shaved pussy, hardcore and anal. Or maybe Im just over-thinking this.
The bottom line for me is that Id highly recommend a membership at X-art. If you like the type of model featured on the site it has a lot of varied material available for a great price. Not only would I recommend the site, but its on my list of sites to join again. |

Pros: |
- Affiliated with Diesel Access, so the same quality is here
- Videos and photos
- Amazing quality for both videos and photos
- Incredibly beautiful models
- Good mix of solo, masturbation, girl/girl and boy/girl hardcore
- Models do live shows
- Bills through CC Bill |
Cons: |
- Site wont remember your username / password even though that option is available
- Photo pages load the whole set as good resolution thumbnails so that takes a lot of bandwidth even if all you want to do is download the zip
- Photo sets wont download with download manager (Free Download Manager specifically)
- Im unsure about exclusivity though some of the models are definitely not exclusive to this site or related sites
- Not sold as part of the Diesel Access network
- Some overlap with other Diesel sites |
Bottom Line: |
Wow Girls is obviously affiliated with Diesel Access (18 Only Girls, Young Legal Porn and more) so any comments made in reviews of those sites will apply here too. The layout is the same, the models are the same and there are even some scenes and photo sets that are on both sites. This site isnt part of that network so youll only get access to this one site with your membership.
This site has many of the same models as found on the Diesel Access network. For some, that may be a negative, but given the comments about the models on other reviews I suspect that most people would agree with my opinion that these models are some of the most beautiful young women on the internet. The potential downside of this is that if you dont like the types of models that the site has then you obviously wont like the site. The models are exclusively young (18-20), petite and (usually) small-breasted.
The site is relatively new so it is still small but it does update regularly so it will continue to grow. It updates daily with either a video or photo set added. Currently there are 48 models, 139 videos and 235 photo sets.
The site uses the same simple and effective layout as used by the Diesel sites. You can search using tags or keywords. Each of the models has a separate page to keep things simple.
Videos are available as either WMV or MPEG-4. In most scenes there are resolution options for the MPEG-4 ranging from lower resolution for mobile devices up to 1080p HD. The WMV files are usually only available in HD. The newest videos are at 1920x1080 at 7000+ kb/s and 30fps. They use WMV Codec 9. Subjectively they look amazing theyre incredibly crisp. The drawback to the high quality is that the file sizes can be large. A 20 minute video can be 2GB in size.
While photos make up more than half the site this really isnt a photo site. The photo sets are mostly shot as part of the videos. Most of the photo sets are available in multiple resolutions. Im not a photo collector but I make an exception for many of these models. The highest resolutions are 3200x4800 and they look amazing.
The videos and photos are a great mix of solo, masturbation, b/g hardcore and g/g scenes. Theres even some anal and peeing in the mix too.
There are some minor negatives and these may even come across as being petty, but they stick out a bit because the site is otherwise so well done. For starters, the site wont remember your username and password even though that option is available. To make that worse, the password is randomly generated and assigned so youll need to keep it handy. A pet peeve of mine is having videos stream automatically as the page loads. I dislike that because it needlessly sucks a lot of bandwidth. That doesnt occur here, to the sites credit, but when you open a page for a photo set the page loads with some good quality thumbnails so that sucks a lot of bandwidth as it loads. Since the average user will probably be downloading the zip file I wish there was a way to access that zip without having all the thumbnails load. Speaking of downloading photos, for some reason using a download manager (Free Download Manager at least) doesnt work with the photos. It works great with the video sets (with no obvious timeouts) but for the photos I had to download them through the browser which is obviously slower. This was also the same for the Diesel Access sites too so it must be a quirk in how they set up the sites.
I cant speak to the exclusivity of the models, but I am aware that some of them have appeared (and do appear) on other sites, sometimes using different names. This isnt a good or bad thing unless youre really into exclusivity.
Im sure that most potential members would find the fact that this site isnt part of a network to be the biggest negative. It does impact on the sense of value that comes with the site. But considering that if this site were added to the Diesel network it would essentially be a free add-on. Porn of this quality cant be cheap to produce and Im certainly willing to pay for material of this quality.
The models do live shows though I never viewed any of those. I presume (but stand to be corrected) that these are an additional cost. The live shows are recorded and those can be downloaded or streamed too.
This site, like its sister sites, does everything well. The models are stunningly beautiful and the people shooting the videos and photos are clearly professionals. The website provides an effective way to sort and download what you want. There are much bigger names in internet porn who could improve by following this site. I know that potential members might question the sites value as it grows, but the quality is near perfect and Id highly recommend joining. |

Pros: |
- 240 videos
- Streaming and downloads available
- Updates with one video per week
- Pics offered (with zips)
- File names use the models name
- Male talent knows their role
- Excellent selection of lesser-known models
- Simple but effective site design
- Supports download managers |
Cons: |
- Only one file type for download (wmv)
- Model name usually only includes her first name
- Only one anal scene
- Files added after May 2, 2009 start streaming when you open the link (make sure your sound is turned down!)
- Odd process wont allow you to browse the site while downloading anything you get a message that the server is down for maintenance
- No search function but can browse by model name and categories (tags)
- Not much variety
- Site name doesnt give clue of the specific niche |
Bottom Line: |
Fucked Hard 18 is a single themed site, the theme being massages that end in sex. I learned I had an interest in this niche when I was a member of Massage Creep and have been looking for good massage sites since then. Thankfully several PU members recommended this site because the site name gives no indication of the theme.
The site started on December 29, 2008 and now has 240 videos posted. The site updates by adding one new video a week. For those who prefer files other than wmv format, youre out of luck. Thats all they offer for downloads. Streaming is also available. The files changed as of May 2, 2009. Prior to that there is only one resolution offered, 640x480 @1200 kb/s. After that date two resolutions are offered for downloads, 1260x720 @ 3200kb/s and 1000x564 @1600kb/s. Streaming is unchanged. All files use wmv codec 9 and play at 30fps. Subjectively, both versions look good. One word of caution for the post-May 2009 videos selecting the link opens to a new page (as happens with the pre-May videos too) and when the page loads the video starts streaming. This is a pet peeve of mine as it hogs bandwidth and can be an unpleasant surprise for anyone who forgets to turn their speakers off. Webmasters: please dont do this!
All scenes run from approximately 35 mins to just under an hour.
A potential problem with single-themed sites like this is that the scenes can be repetitive. That criticism can be directed at FH18 because the only thing that changes in the scenes is the girl. The setup is pretty much identical in every scene: the camera opens on a long view of a massage table, the girl walks in, usually by the camera so we can see her ass, she sits on the table and waits for the masseur to come in. He comes in, they introduce themselves. The setup is that she has been selected for a free massage because they are filming a training video. The girl gets naked, gets on the table and the massage begins. One thing I really like is that the masseur (who is the same in all the scenes) uses lots of oil.
One aspect of the scenes that I wish was different is what happens before the sex starts. I think Massage Creep does the setup better. MC has the masseur introduce himself to the girl and then he leaves the room while the girl gets undressed and slips under a sheet on the table. The camera acts as sort of a Peeping Tom while this is going on and the masseur peeks in too. Then the massage starts and it is played straight for a while before it becomes sexualized. With FH18 the masseur is in the room as the girl undresses and gets on the table. The massage quickly becomes sexualized with the masseur deliberately going for the naughty bits very quickly.
There is almost no variety in the scenes. There is only one anal scene, one lesbian scene, and one or two scenes with two girls. Model types are almost exclusively young, petite and natural. There are a few enhanced girls, but not that many, and only a few sport a lot of ink.
Two things take this site from ordinary to extraordinary:
1) The models are stunning. The models are mostly porn stars in that most of them have a listing on IAFD, but they arent big stars in that they usually only have a handful of titles to their credit. Some A-listers do appear. While I like most of the A-listers, it is refreshing to see some models that I dont know. (One beef is that while the site uses the model name in the scene name, they only use her first name. That can be frustrating with some obscure models with relatively common stage names like Amber or Natalie. Id prefer her full name so I can source more if I want.)
2) The male talent and crew know how to make good porn. The guy in the scene does an excellent job of never getting in the way or trying to upstage the girl. The cameraman and male talent clearly understand that the scene is about the girl, not the guy. They both do their best to show the girl off. Many other websites could learn a lesson from these guys.
Pictures are available, but this isnt a picture site so they are really just an afterthought. Zips are available. Resolutions on newer pics are good at 996x1500.
The site itself is simple, but it doesnt need to be complex. There are multiple pages of scenes and you can sort by model and categories.
There are four bonus sites and several DVD sites offered with the membership but those are streaming only.
One annoyance is that you cant browse the site while downloading. Attempting to do so gives you a blank screen with a message that the server is down for service.
Overall, this is a site that is really better than I expected. The single theme and the lack of variety would suggest a lower score, but the amazing models and the sites ability to show them off to their best without the guy ever upstaging the girl pushes the site beyond the average. I highly recommend this site. |

Pros: |
- Part of the Mofo Network (10 sites in total on the network)
- Approximately 80 scenes
- Scenes are lengthy (most around an hour)
- Multiple download options (HD, SD and mobile)
- 2 levels of HD available 1080p and 720p)
- Streaming available
- Some amazing looking girls
- Better than average download speeds
- Discount through TBP
- Updates weekly
- Interesting mix of known porn girls and lesser-known models
- Photos available
- Download managers work
- Lots of fun to watch |
Cons: |
- As with most party sites, most of the guys are annoying (but not as bad as with other sites)
- Hand-held camera can be a bit shaky in some scenes |
Bottom Line: |
It goes without saying, obviously, that a large part of satisfaction in a site is subjective. If a site does all the technical bits well, it isnt going to matter too much if you just dont like the theme of the site. So having stated that, I really like party sites like these, and this is one of the better ones Ive joined.
The site is probably big enough to be a decent value on its own, but it is part of a bigger network. This specific site has about 80 videos posted and each of those is about an hour long. Each of the scenes has a unique setup that is actually interesting to watch. I didnt find myself constantly skipping ahead to the sex. There is a mix of indoor and outdoor video shoots, with the outdoor scenes usually being shot by a pool so there are lots of skimpy bikinis around. The first half of the video is taken up with the set-up and the second half is the sex.
The lighting is usually very good the outdoor scenes arent washed out and the indoor scenes are mostly lit properly. The camera work is better than average for these kinds of sites. Adding to the professional look of the scenes is the fact that this obviously isnt a group of self-centered guys who decided to make a porn site the director always makes sure that the girls are the focus of the attention.
This site, and the Mofo network generally, have the technical bits right: all the scenes are available in three different sizes. The HD is available in 1080p and 720p (and they look great!), the SD video is available in MPEG4, MPEG and WMV. And theres also an option for mobile users. I didnt list this as a con above, but given the length of these videos the files sizes are huge. Some top out at over 5GB for the 1080p. There are photos available too, with zips as an option
Another possible issue for some people is that there is very little variation on the type of model in each scene. If your tastes are like mine this is no issue here because the overwhelming majority of the models are petite and young. I dont think there are any black or ethnic models, and no one over 25 either. But if youre a fan of models like Tanner Mayes and Micah Moore and girls who have that body type, youll certainly like the girls here.
This site alone is a good enough value to justify the membership, especially when you join through TBP/PU and get the discount. But there are nine other sites (including a MILF site and a gangbang site) that only increase the value of the membership. If you like watching petite young lasses party and enjoy themselves, then this is a site definitely worth checking out. |

Pros: |
- One of the biggest and best sites on the internet
- Low monthly price
- Huge variety of material available, from mainstream to fetish
- Many fetishes represented
- Excellent download speeds
- Many options for downloads available
- Streaming is available
- Editing the clips is an option
- No download limits
- New material added daily
- Some HD material being added
- Access to premium channels for a small fee (note that if you dont want to pay the fee the basic VB membership is still the best value on the internet)
- Added premium access to some Kink.com scenes and some Reality Kings scenes
- Seem to have improved the quality of their updates since my last review
- Daily updates seem to all occur at once now, no more checking in every few hours |
Cons: |
- While not as obvious as in the past, there is still some reliance on lower-grade porn to make the daily updates
- Still adding compilations where the original scenes are also available
- The Evil Angel and Vivid premium channels are no longer bundled for one price
- Kink.com and Reality Kings only available on VB3
- VB3 seems like a change driven by marketing rather than a genuine move to improve the site |
Bottom Line: |
This is my fourth review of VB since becoming a PU member many years ago. I had hoped to focus on the new, improved, VB3 but Ill have to leave that to someone else. Im sure that VB3 is fairly easy to use and straightforward once you get used to it, but with VB2 being as simple and straightforward as it is already why bother changing it? Im familiar and comfortable with VB2 so I used that.
Unless youve been living under a rock you know about VB. This has to be one of the best, and probably the best, DVD site on the net. It offers a huge amount of material for the low price of a membership. I cant imagine that there is another site that offers this kind of value.
There are a lot of good reasons to join VB: size and variety are the two biggest ones. There are almost 10,000 DVDs on the site now, with more being added daily. The site doesnt concentrate on serving one fetish or niche to the exclusion of others either, but it serves many very well. There are members who complain when they dont like an update, but I think that approach forgets that there are probably a lot of people who are pleased with the update. Also good are the options available to view the scenes: there are multiple download options depending on the quality you want or the size you can store, and streaming is also available. Download speeds are better than average.
The downsides to the site are pretty minor and probably mostly subjective. I find that they still seem to push quantity over quality, and I find a heavy reliance on lower-grade European material.
VB now offers four premium channels. Evil Angel and Vivid were added quite a while ago and both now have a decent library available. These two were bundled for a while, which made for a great value, but now they are separate add-ons. That probably makes more sense given that these two studios offer vastly different material and likely have few customers who seek out material from both.
The two newest premium channels are Kink.com and Reality Kings. I didnt add either of them on. Im not really familiar with Reality Kings (though I have had a membership) so I cant give a good opinion. As for Kink.com, if youve never been a member of any of their sites this would be a good way to access some stuff to sample it. There is a good sampling from many of their sites, such as The Training of O and Water Bondage.
Even with the few things I dont like, VB is still likely my favorite porn site. It has so much to offer at such a low price that it is a no-brainer to join. Unlike other sites you dont get a staggered membership at first you get access to the probably the largest porn stash on the net with no download limits. A membership here for a few months will give you a better collection than some porn shops have. It really does have something for everyone. |

|
Pros: |
- Creative, innovative site
- Beautiful models
- Extreme BDSM
- Outdoor settings
- 25 scenes and growing
- Updates with at least one scene per month
- ‘Clips’ and photos too
- Downloads and streaming
- Multiple resolutions for downloads
- Supports download managers |
Cons: |
- Slower than average download speeds
- 4K files cost extra |
Bottom Line: |
Dom the Nation (DtN) is a relatively new site by the creative minds behind Assylum and Slave Mouth. If you aren’t familiar with either of those older sites, I recommend checking them out and reading the reviews. Those sites are two of the most unique and creative BDSM sites I’ve ever seen. In terms of creativity, I’ve not seen anyone else come close. DtN is every bit as good as it’s sister sites but adds creativity.
What differentiates DtN is the setting for the scenes. Where both Assylum and Slave Mouth are shot indoors, DtN scenes are shot outdoors. Some of the elements that the two original sites are known for, namely bondage, extreme S&M, rough anal sex (there is no vaginal penetration here at all), face-fucking, watersports, degradation, humiliation and general depravity are all present here, but in outdoor settings. For me, shooting scenes outdoors adds a whole new element to these already-unique scenes. It adds an element of risk that, for me, heightens the allure.
Instead of using creative devices to bind and restrain the models, in most instances they are bound on bare ground including dirt, gravel and even jagged rocks. Sometimes softer surfaces such as grass are used.
Most of the scenes have been shot in the US though the crew recently did go to Italy and some of the scenes shot there are now making their way onto the site. Unlike the sister site, there is no unifying premise here. Here, it simply bondage and sadism for the sake of that alone. The site labels itself as having BDSM “documentaries” and that is an apt description.
This site began in earnest in early 2020, just before the pandemic hit. Lockdowns hindered site growth but they are back to shooting and uploading. There are currently 25 scenes uploaded. Here, a scene is called a movie and tends to be 40 minutes on average. There are also currently eight “clips.” These are shorter, more focused videos where there may just be oral sex or some specific act or bondage. Blended in among all of these are seven photo sets.
The site has made the unusual decision to not have any means to separate the videos, clips or photos. There are simply six thumbnails per screen and a description below that outlines what the file is. I suspect that not being able to filter for just videos, for example, is a creative choice because it is obvious that the site is trying to create a flow. While there isn’t necessarily a story behind these videos and clips, they do tend to flow together. And, even if you don’t want to view the photos, they are very easily skipped over.
The models who appear on the site are generally mainstream, though models who also are known for some extreme acts. Models such as Charlotte Sartre, Lydia Black and Rebel Rhyder all have scenes here. But there are also models that I don’t normally associate with BDSM who have scenes here. Those would include Rory Knox, Brooke Johnson and Claire Roos. Regardless of the model, they all give over-the-top BDSM performances. Many of the scenes feature multiple models in the same shoot. In some cases, all of the models are being subjected to BDSM and in other cases one of the subs is assisting the Dom.
For the basic subscription price you get access to stream or download files at 480p, 720p, and 1080p. 4K videos are available but require a premium membership. A note if you are streaming: the scenes default to the trailer so make sure to select the full scene.
An ongoing minor complaint that I have had with the two older sister-sites is that download speeds are much slower than I’m used to seeing on other sites. Unfortunately, that continues here. I suspect that since all these sites are related that they are all run off the same servers. This is simply a minor concern, however, because while the speeds are slower, I’ve never had a problem with the downloads timing out or crashing.
One other minor negative for me, though it may not be an issue for everyone, is that many of the scenes are shot over several hours and some extend into the night. While the lighting can make up for some of that, my preference would be for scenes shot entirely in the daylight.
DtN is certainly not a site for the faint of heart. Make no mistake, this is not a playful, vanilla BDSM site. This is a site where the BDSM is degrading and, in many cases, likely quite painful. If, however, you like what Assylum or Slave Mouth offers, then I strongly encourage you to look at DtN. Moving the scenes into a less controlled outdoor environment really adds an illicit element to them. If you do like extreme BDSM, you owe it to yourself to take a look at the trailers here. But, as with my conclusions regarding the sister-sites, DtN is class-leading but most definitely not mainstream porn. |

Pros: |
- An excellent network of teen-oriented sites
- 14 sites available
- Network continues to grow (new sites added recently)
- Updates regularly
- Many incredibly beautiful young (18+) models, many early in their careers
- TBP / PU Discount
- No download limit
- Permits download managers
- Streaming available
- Photos available
- Bills through Epoch |
Cons: |
- Download speeds are a bit less than I get at competitor sites
- The search function has less function in the members section than on the preview pages
- Id prefer more anal scenes |
Bottom Line: |
I have to admit to being a bit surprised that this network hasnt been reviewed more often here. Im guessing that part of this is just due to the wide variety of interests within the PU community such that a great teen-themed site goes without the attention it might get if everyone shared my (limited) interests.
The network is a collection of 14 sites and each of them is either specifically teen-oriented (18+, of course) or has a non-teen-specific theme but still uses the freshest faces available. Of all the sites, only one, Her Freshman Year, doesnt appear to be updating. This isnt a deal-breaker though since it is a relatively generic theme that is easily satisfied with several of the other sites on the network. If there is one usual theme not represented by a site it would be anal sex. The whole network only has 32 anal scenes out of the 1000+ available. If it wasnt for the exceptional teens I might just take this as a personal insult.
The network also includes a massage-themed site called Rub-a-Teen. This site has stirred up a bit of controversy around here because it is a clone of the Tricky Masseur site at Teen Mega World. The site sticks out for two reasons it appears to be the only non-exclusive site on the network (I might be wrong on that though) and it is the only site that has non-U.S., non-English speaking models apart from the Latina site. I dont hold it against the network that they bought a whole site, but Id have preferred to join this network to get it rather than Teen Mega World. And honestly, Ill bet that if the guys behind this network made their own massage stuff it would be top quality.
When I last joined this network about 18 months ago I found it to have great porn but the technical bits were a bit dated. There were limited choices for file formats and their definition of HD was a bit loose. The good news is that this is no longer the case: in October 2011 the network rolled out mp4 as their standard format and all new scenes are available in three resolutions, including 720p and 1080p. One WMV file is still available as is a file size for mobile users. I downloaded the 720p and those come in at 1280x720 at a 2400kb/s bitrate and 30fps. They look great on a monitor and I suspect theyll look fine on a TV when I get around to trying that.
Each of the scenes is available in a variety of ways (in segments, full scene, etc.) so most users will find what theyre looking for. I may not understand why the network has so many options, but I appreciate that they do and I think this shows their positive attitude to members.
Photos are also available as singles and zips and as stand-alone and screencaps. I wouldnt call this a photo site but for those who like photos you can get a fix too.
Other positives are that the site bills through Epoch, allows download managers with no obvious timeouts, and doesnt impose any download limit.
There are some negatives, but I dont want to over-emphasize these as they really are minor in light of the overall quality of the network. The most serious of these negatives is the search function. Full disclosure here I might be dead wrong on this, but I searched and tried for an hour and couldnt find a solution. Heres the weird issue with the search function: each scene has a series of tags. The tags can be used to sort the scenes. But when youre on the preview page the sort function works to narrow your choices, which is, I assume, what it is intended to do. You want blonde, footjob and glasses? On the preview page youll be left with the precise scenes that have those three elements. When youre in the members section though, the tags just pile on each other. Select blonde and you get any scene with that. Add footjob and you get all the footjob scenes on the network rather than just the footjob scenes with blondes, which means you get a lot of stuff you dont want. I looked long and hard and cant find a way to make the tag filter work when in the member section. If Im wrong, please say so in a comment.
Other minor negatives are that the download speeds are a bit slower than Im used to. Not enough to really complain, but noticeable mostly because the site is so well done that this minor issue sticks out.
This is neither a negative or a positive, it just is, but given the newness of some of the models theyre only doing solo stuff at this point. This is a bit disappointing but if thats the choice of the models then I cant criticize the network for that. Im just stating this as a fact.
This is a great network that continues to add sites and scenes. One scene is added per day, spread over the 13 updating sites. I think this is a great network even at full price, but at the TBP discount it is a must-have for anyone who likes teen-themed, high quality porn. Not only do I recommend it, Ill definitely be back again and again. |

Pros: |
- Among the best Public Nudity sites on the net
- Many well-known porn stars
- Simple and effective site design
- Good lighting and editing
- Multiple formats available
- Videos and photos available
- Very daring |
Cons: |
- Forced to stop updating
- Photos seem to be a bit of an afterthought |
Bottom Line: |
This is my second review of this site. I returned to it to see what was new and to download the videos and photos that were uploaded since I was last a member. I expected some changes, but one of the changes that I found was definitely a negative. Ill get that one huge, negative change out of the way first: the site is no longer updating and hasnt updated since early November of 2011. According to the news posted on the site the owners didnt make this decision, rather it was forced on them through a cease-and-desist order from the City of Los Angeles. (As an aside, I see that a similar site, Nude in L.A. doesnt even exist now. They were a decent site in that they were more daring than most, but also managed to strip out a lot of titillation pun not intended. So full marks to the guys at Teasers who are still keeping the site alive.)
The other significant change was just starting as I wrote my last review. At the time of that review they had only posted two scenes with the new format so I wasnt in a position to do much more than simply note the change. The site now has 13 shoots with the new format. The old format consisted of breaking a models scene down into various parts and labeling those parts accordingly. The new format seemed to be an attempt to create a quasi-reality-show feel to shoots. They are still on the Teasers site, but theyre in a separate tab. Theyre branded as Real Girls of Porn Valley. Im not opposed to the new format (with one major exception being that there is an opening screen on each segment) but apart from the labeling of the shoot, and of the individual scenes, there really isnt much of a change, and there certainly isnt any major improvement over the older format. If there is a positive, and this is subjective, it is that the scenes seem to push the limits a bit more under the new format. Because that tends to be model-specific that could just be luck though. (I suspect that some of the more daring shoots are what caused the Citys legal response. Seeing Jennifer White standing naked in front of my house certainly wouldnt cause me to complain, but Im probably not a good example in this case)
The format for both the older and newer shoots follows a bit of a formula. Most shoots follow the formula. The model is filmed as she tries on outfits and we see her changing; there is usually a scene with the model in a short skirt or dress and the camera follows her around in public areas as she flashes. There is a scene in each shoot where the model parades around in a skimpy bikini. There are also two or three clips of the model at a caf (usually outdoor) where she is interviewed and asked to remove some clothing. Finally, there is usually a clip where the model is in a secluded, but still public, location where she strips nude and masturbates. In many shoots there is bonus material of the model masturbating back at the photographers house. In the public scenes people and cars can be seen going by. This is subjective, but I really like that the site usually doesnt edit out the interaction between the model and the guys filming.
The models are the sites main asset. There are many big porn stars here, and seeing them in the wild can be pretty interesting. Alexis Texas, Eden Adams and Katie St. Ives, among many other big names, have scenes here. If there is one downside to having such a model-centred site it is that the heat of the scene is really up to the model: if the model is daring and adventurous the shoot will be more fun to watch than if the model is shy and reserved. But a huge advantage to this is that this is one of the few public nudity sites that does show the models being nervous.
The technical stuff hasnt changed since I last reviewed the site, except now there are now more scenes posted. There has been some new BTS material added too. The videos are available as WMVs (resolution depends on when they were added but maxes out at to 960x540 @ 3000 kb/s). MP4 videos are available in high and low resolution.
Photos are available, as singles and zips at 800x1200 but the main thrust of the site are the videos.
Some readers will disagree with my position that a site that no longer updates still has lots of value. This is subjective, but given that this site does contain a lot of material, serves a rare niche (American public nudity), and that political authorities seem to be closing in on that niche, I think the site is an exceptional value. The way these guys shoot their scenes puts them in the top few public nudity sites, and maybe even the best out there. Given that the site is under attack and others have closed, if you have any interest in this genre my advice is to join now before they disappear. |

Pros: |
- Huge site
- Excellent quality pictures and videos
- Pictures and videos given equal effort
- Stunning models
- Good mix of North American, European and Russian models
- Some porn A-listers and some relative unknowns
- Many options for downloads
- Well organized site (simple where it doesnt need to be complex)
- Good mix of softcore, girl-girl and hardcore
- Best search function Ive ever encountered
- Supports download managers
- Older material appears to have been remastered to make it look better |
Cons: |
- Fairly tame for fans of hardcore |
Bottom Line: |
Subjectively, this really isnt my kind of site. Having said that, this is a repeat membership for me since this was one of the first pay sites I joined six or seven years ago. I was impressed then, and Im still impressed.
Most PU members will know this site, so I wont spend a lot of time describing it. Nubiles is a huge site featuring a bewildering array of young, beautiful models from around the world. There is enough variation in body type and age that anyone could join the site and find hundreds of models to fit his taste. The majority of the models are American (with some porn girls here too), Eastern European and Russian. But many other nationalities are represented too. The site currently says there are 1030 models, close to 600,000 pictures and over 5400 movies. I have no reason to think theyre making that up.
Most sites seem to fall into either being a picture site or a video site. If they do one well, the other is just a necessary add-on. Not so here. Regardless if youre a picture guy or a video guy youll see the site as exceeding your expectations. One format isnt dominant over the other and one doesnt detract from the other. This is a lesson many other large site could learn.
Nubiles has been around since 2004 so youll obviously find some variation in picture and video quality. Having said that, it appears that the site has always pushed the limits of technology so even back in 2004 they were better than most. Even the oldest pictures and videos still look good. It also appears that some of the videos have been remastered to make them better. If this is true, and I think it is, this underscores the sites efforts to provide the best quality available.
All but the oldest picture sets on the site are available in two sizes. All sets are available as singles or as a zip. The newer photos in high res come in at 1600x2400 and the low res are 800x1200. The older pictures are 800x1200, which would have been amazing quality in 2004. They may have been updated at some point. Photos sets vary from 60+ photos to 100+ photos. Subjectively, the quality is excellent.
Videos are available in a wide variety of formats and sizes. There arent many other sites that offer this many options. Even the oldest videos on the site can be streamed or can be downloaded in multiple formats. Newer videos are available as streams in three different resolutions. Downloads are available in wmv, mpg, mp4 (low and high res), avi and mobile. Older scenes also offer the video in segments. My preference is WMV so thats what I downloaded. They use codec 9 and the videos are 1280x720 @3600kb/s and 30fps. Subjectively, they look great.
The search function on the site is incredibly complex in its operation but simple to use. It allows a member to sort models by personal attributes. The usual traits are listed, such as breast size, hair colour, race and age, but there are some obscure attributes that can be sorted too, like braces, skin tone (tanned or not) and even by nipple type. You can search by type of outfit, You want to see a model smoking? You can sort by that too. The setting is searchable too. I know I said that Met Art has the best search function Ive ever seen, but Nubiles is better still.
One thing Ive never seen before and I wish would catch on is the ability for members to post links to other pay sites where the model has material. This is great for models who change their names a lot. To me, this function demonstrates the professionalism and customer-interest that Nubiles has.
The only negative I can think of is purely subjective: the site is just a bit too tame for my liking. There are lesbian and hardcore scenes here, but they arent the main focus. Hardcore isnt just an add-on, because those scenes are very well done, but the main focus is solo girl and solo masturbation. If youre a hardcore fan there is enough here to warrant a membership but you wont find anything that pushes the limits. I only found one anal scene, for example.
The bottom line is that if youre an active porn buyer you owe it to yourself to check this site out. It doesnt try to be everything to everyone (the lack of hard hardcore, for example), but what it does it does almost perfectly. The models are amazing, the photos and videos are well done and the site is laid out to help you find what interests you. I highly recommend Nubiles. It is definitely on my list of sites for repeat memberships.
(One last thing: I only noticed this on one scene, but I wonder if other older scenes have the same issue. Theres a scene with Kate, aka Kathleen Kruz where she gives a blowjob and the scene has been edited to jump right into the event. The original scene had a brief but playful setup that made the scene so much better. I hope this hasnt happened in many other scenes. In my opinion, the setup is as important as the sex.) |

Pros: |
- Unique concept with creative scenes
- Beautiful models in extreme hardcore oral scenes
- Many mainstream porn models
- 47 scenes
- Downloads and streaming
- Downloads in multiple resolutions
- Supports download managers |
Cons: |
- May not be updating
- Slow downloads
- Definitely not for everyone |
Bottom Line: |
Slave Mouth is a unique oral-only BDSM site that started several years ago. It’s affiliated with the same people who have Assylum, a unique, anal-themed BDSM site. Much of what makes Slave Mouth worth checking out is paralleled with Assylum. I recommend checking out the reviews of Assylum if you are considering a Slave Mouth membership.
Calling Slave Mouth unique is deliberate on my part. I’m choosing that word even though I know it is often overused. But, in this case, it is accurate and applies.
The site uses the same underlying premise as its sister-site, Assylum, which is that women with sexual depravity, in this case some sort of an oral-fixation, come to be treated by the male talent, Dr. Mercies. Dr. Mercies uses all manner of bondage, insertions, suspensions and oral sex to help cure his patients. For fans of rimming, as I am, this is a commonly used treatment tool here as well.
The sad news is that I think Dr. Mercies’ success rate is quite low. I suspect that after all of the depravity that his patients remain with their oral-fixation.
Slave Mouth is anything but vanilla. As much as I like this site, and I have put my money where my mouth is many times since it was created, I recognize that it isn’t for everyone. The scenes are rough, and in some cases extremely rough, they involve restraint, sometimes in stress positions, sometimes in suspended positions and the scenes all feature rough face-fucking.
One of the many things that has always impressed me about this site from its beginning is that regardless of how extreme it is they do bring in some mainstream models. Admittedly, some of the models that they bring in such as Anastasia Rose and Rebel Rhyder, are known for pushing their limits even as mainstream stars. But what I really appreciate about Slave Mouth is that they do attract known models and not just fetish models.
The site currently has 47 scenes available. These are available as downloads in 480p, 720p or 1080p. 4K is available but requires an upgraded premium membership. Streaming is only available in one resolution. While it certainly open to anyone to see this as a cash-grab just to get 4K downloads, I see it differently. As someone who is happy with less than 4K, I get a price break.
All of the scenes have excellent production values. While many of them use stationary cameras, there are enough of them and they are moved frequently enough that the video never becomes repetitive.
When I last reviewed Slave Mouth, I noted that the download speeds were significantly slower than what I experience on other sites. This issue remains. In fact, while my personal Internet connection has increased and I see lightning-fast download speeds on many sites, Slave Mouth continues to have much slower speeds which are even more prominent now in contrast. I suspect this has something to do with the technology behind the site and unless that is upgraded then the slow speeds will remain. For me, this is certainly not a deal-breaker but I mention it so that any prospective subscriber is aware of it.
The biggest concern I have about Slave Mouth now is that it appears to be in decline. Over the past couple of years, the frequency of updates had been reduced and as of this writing, the last update was three months ago. The lockdowns during the pandemic certainly contributed here. However, while this is bad news, and I can’t say otherwise, I suspect the decline is attributable to the site owners opening another unique BDSM site called Dom the Nation.
If Slave Mouth does not continue updating, I think it will remain a good value for first-time subscribers. Getting access to 47 unique scenes involving creativity like almost no one else does is well worth the price of a monthly subscription.
As I’ve said with Assylum, perhaps the biggest reason to discourage someone from not joining Slave Mouth is simply because of how extreme it is. This is not a site for somebody who wants to dabble in oral-themed BDSM. This site is for someone with a specific interest and who knows what they’re getting into. Luckily, Slave Mouth puts up excellent trailers for each of their scenes so a prospective subscriber can watch some or all of these to get a sense of whether they are comfortable taking a membership here.
While last time I gave an unequivocal recommendation to join this site, even though it was relatively new and small, I’m going to scale that recommendation back just a bit. Until it appears that the site is updating again it isn’t going to be worth a membership for someone who has been there just recently and downloaded scenes, unless of course, there is a recently uploaded must-have seen that someone wants. But, for the first-time member, or for someone who has not had a membership in a while, and who knows what they’re getting into, then I still highly recommend subscribing to Slave Mouth. |

Bottom Line: |
Mixed X is a new porn site started by the Hungarian model Cristina Shine in late 2020. In its short tenure it site has attracted a lot of attention and has received two AVN nominations (studio and scene). It’s also been nominated by XCritic for Best New Studio. These nominations are from peers so they carry a lot of weight.
Does this new studio/site merit that kind of attention? In my opinion, it does. Everything that Cristina Shine brings to bear here is industry leading. The site describes itself as featuring the art of cinematic handheld porn but that doesn’t really do it justice. I think anyone who has collected porn for more than a couple of years might be sceptical about handheld scenes. We’ve all been burned by that. But here, the camerawork is impeccable, bordering on being cinematography.
The scenes themselves are built around a thin plot. For example, in one scene Cristina Shine is playing the assistant to a demanding boss. There is a sexual tension built up that makes the scene amazing.
There are currently 40 scenes available on the site but with two new scenes being added every week it won’t take long for the site to grow. And keep in mind that these scenes aren’t simply thrown-together gonzo scenes.
While a small site can hardly be said to have a broad mix of scenes, it’s fair to say that this site is certainly aiming in that direction. Many of the scenes have anal sex and there are several lesbian scenes as well. It’s also fair to say that this site can be categorized as an interracial site because many of the male talent are Black.
It’s also fair to say that this site can be categorized as being suitable for couples. I suspect that many women would appreciate this story and the acting.
One thing that makes this site stand apart is that the acting is actually very good. Cristina Shine herself is a good actor and it certainly seems like she has recruited co-stars who are as well. While my own tastes tend to run to gonzo, I do appreciate porn that sets high standards for itself and meets them. If you are going to have acting in your porn then it might as well be good acting.
Speaking of acting, the scenes have a lot of chemistry between the actors. I know that it is trite to say this because any porn actor is going to try to give the sense of chemistry, but here it really is an overriding attribute for the scenes.
The site isn’t an exclusive vehicle for Cristina Shine. Other top Eastern European models have scenes here as well and they are also excellent. Amirah Adara, Nesty and Cherry Kiss are here. One advantage to having the model roster that they have is that many of these women speak English. Even for those models whose English skills aren’t great, just having dialogue is a big factor in both production values and heat. I don’t collect a lot of porn with Eastern European models so many of the women here are unknown to me though they are all beautiful.
The site itself is easy to use and has a good tag system. You have three choices for both downloads and streaming: 1080p, 8000kb/s and 30 fps, HD 720p and 480p.
This is certainly not a deal-breaker and I’m not even going to count it as a negative, but it is a pet peeve of mine to have videos start to play automatically when the page loads. For one thing, you need to be cautious in case your speakers are turned up, and for another it will use bandwidth until you turn it off.
Photos are also available. Those are available as singles or zips and come in at 2160 x 3840 resolution. Screencaps are also available but they are very low resolution so I wouldn’t count on those as a deciding factor in joining the site.
I found download speeds to be somewhat lower than I would expect to see on a site of this calibre. It may be, however, that the site is new and popular or that the server needs an upgrade. This is not a deal-breaker, however.
This site is not part of any network and there is no bonus material offered. You get only what you pay for. There are some discounts offered for members and these may have value for subscribers.
There is a pre-checked cross-sell when joining so be careful. The site does bill through Segpay who are, in my experience, reputable and safe billers.
There is no TBP/PU discount listed but when I joined I was offered a 50% discount. I just checked before posting this and that offer is still active.
The bottom line is that while this site is new and still relatively small what it has going for it is that it is growing quickly and it offers porn on a level not seen on many other sites. If your preference is for plot-based porn with good acting skills and high production values, then you owe it to yourself to check this out. There is a reason why it’s garnered so many award nominations. |
