|
Pros: |
+ Features just about the most gorgeous girls on the planet....naked!!! How does that work?!?
+ Huge resolution photo sets
+ Great download manager support with no connection limits
+ All pic sets available in 3 different sizes - all zipped
+ Nice favourites, voting, and model index system
+ Very regular updates
+ Good value for money
+ enormous back catalogue |
Cons: |
- Some videos are poor (not all though by any stretch)
- No explicit content - a lot of the girls don't even spread :-(
- Like to keep everything? You'll need a few Terabytes of HDD lying around |
Bottom Line: |
In my eyes the best picture based, non hardcore site on the internet. No question worth the monthly subscription (currently $30 per month, $60 for 3 months or £100 for a year) - 4 updates a day (usually all photo sets but around 10 video updates per month instead of photo setse) - first day of the month is 6 updates.
The site is not explicit, there are no BG sets or insertions of any kind. The odd GG set is tame and not really worth the bother. The real strength of this set is the quality of the models. You know the sort of girl you see in magazines (the sort of girl that doesn't exist in real life - they're just too perfect)? The sort of girl you could never hope to get to first base with let alone any further. Well - Met Art is a strike for the normal guy - a chance to see what these perfect creatures are really like. What's going on under the clothes of a girl with movie star looks. Why these girls take their clothes off for money I have no idea - there's hardly a girl on the site that couldn't earn a perfectly good wage just modeling fully clothed!!
There's a pretty steady influx of new talent too - it's not like they've got a few top quality models to strip and stuck with it - rearely a week goes by without some new knockout talent appearing. And I cant' remember a day going by without at least one new photoset being worthy of...well...worthy of Met Art earning their money from me!!!
The site is quick to navigate with full thumbnails of everything and a full archive going back further than most of us have hard drive space for. Each model is fully indexed so - sea a girl you like? You can easily find all the rest of her content.
The servers are quick and there are no download limits - I set use FDM to run 4 connections and get very few connection issues. Just as well - there's currently around 1Gb new content every single day!
Only slight niggles:
-Video content is often just video of the photoshoots and if not - is often a little too arty for my taste - lots of quick jump edits.
-I'd like a little more info on the models - maybe some interview reels. Most models have a small bio text file but they are VERY short and not really that informative in most cases.
-There's maybe a little too much airbrushing at times but this site is all about perfection so I'm not one to complain about the webmasters going that tiny bit further to float my boat.
I can't recommend this site enough - if you're into art shoots then you'll already be a member, have been a member or have been living in a cave for the last 10 years. If you're into harder stuff then maybe this shou;dn't be you're primary site but...hey...we ALL like beautiful girls yes? They don't get any more beautiful than on Met Art. |

|
Pros: |
+ Huge amount of content
+ Gorgeous girls (on the whole)
+ Nice simple site navigation
+ Super quick downloads
+ All photosets zipped
+ Vid content available as whole or part files in multiple formats
+ Nice model of the month feature |
Cons: |
- form based login with OCR causes havoc with scheduled download managers
- Implants everywhere (not really the site's fault but...)
- Some content can be a little too "soft" (but the hard stuff makes up for it. |
Bottom Line: |
This is a great site one of THE great porn sites of the last ten years. Updates are consistant and many - usually 3 photosets and 2 at least 2 videos a day.
The models are usually American, often European, and (even better IMHO) occassionally British.
The photo quality is good if not perfect (the hi res sets are not in the league of MetArt but are excellent none the less). Video quality is as you would expect these days - archive stuff is low res and the recent updates are amazing - true HD 720p and available in multiple formats.
The site is quick and really easy to navigate with voting, comments, model directory, recent updates, archive....etc, etc, etc.
One reallynice feature is a monthly "treat". This girl is featured for a month with additional sets, interviews, extra bio info. Currently it's Sasha Grey (who appears to be startlingly intelligent!!!) but we've even had Peach (my absolute favorite) and somenewer girls like Alexis Texas (her arse being worth a months subscription fee alone!).
So - it's a classic site. Everyone should have been a member at some point if onlyto get all the archived material of your favorite girls. That said - theday I cancel will be a verydark one indeed! |

Karup's PC

|
Pros: |
+ A lot of girls, most with multiple picture sets and many with video. Many girsl I've not seean elsewhere as well as the usual suspects.
+ Almost all exclusive content
+ An increasing number of HD quality vids
+ Nice easy site navigation and good server speed
+ Comprehensive model index
+ HUGE 10 year archive
+ Nice search engine
+ no problems with download managers and no download limits
+ simple zip downloads for photo sets (choice of two resolutions)
+ single or mulitple video downloads for each update
+ Did I mention there are a lot of girls in here? |
Cons: |
- Some video posted is still low res
- Doesn't update every day
- Nothing very "different" about either vid or photo sets |
Bottom Line: |
The main strentgh of Karups is the size of it's back catalogue. I'm not convinced there are girls in Eastern Europe who aren't featured somewhere in the archive. Certainly, if a girl has taken all her clothes off in the Czech Republic she'll be somewhere in the Karups model index!
Personaly I find the video the most compelling download here but the photo sets are also excellent if not quite up to the hires standard of some other sites. All sets are availble in standard or hires zips.
Video res can be a bit hit and miss. Most of the archive is pretty low (640x480) but this is to be expected really when the archive goes back so far. Most recent video is stated as HD - although even this can vary from 960x540 to 1280x720. The vid content though is good - most of the videos take a standard strip -> masterbation format and the girls get naked pretty quick and are never shy about showing the lot! Hardcore videos are also common and are usually pretty standard: clothed, she sucks him, she gets naked, he licks her out, he fucks her, he comes on her face/tits, end. You know where you are and there are few suprises. The BIG plus is lots of the girls are exclusive - never seen a lot of them elsewhere and that's no mean feat comming from someone with over 10Tb of porn.
Karups doesn't upload every day but there are always areound 4 or 5 updates a week with 6 pic sets and 2 or 3 videos and amongst these there's nearly always a winner!
Overall I'd recommend Karups if you're not after imaginitive photoshots and video. If you like pretty girls you've not come across (haha) elsewhere to simply take of their clothes and show you their "all" then you won't go too far wrong here. Nothing earth shattering but good quality reliable updates backup up by a simple and fast site. |

|
Pros: |
- Mostly gorgeous girls.
- Great quality videos
- Full dated complete archive going back to 1st Jan 2001!!
- one click zip downloads
- Download managers supported (using the rollback site - see below)
- Casting videos and pic sets for a lot of the models
- Good mix of soft/hard/lesbian/indoor/outdoor etc. |
Cons: |
- Horrible new site design (slow to load and uses a login form that stops download mangers from working efficiently. At time of writting however you can still access the site using the rollback server - rollback.1by-day.com - who knows how long they'll keep this online though!)
- Updates dropped to 1 per day rather than the advertised 2 per day as of April 09
- Some sets can be a little formularic (but it's a minor gripe)
- fortnightly "jokes" small picture update instead of a new model with a full video. |
Bottom Line: |
Hey - it's 1byDay. If you have never been a member at some point then you can't really be a porn hound. Some of the (IMHO) most gorgeous girls in the business started here before they got too much surgery (Juditta), stopped doing hardcore (Eve Angel), or sturated the market (Sandra Shine). Fortunately a lot of those sets are still in the archive. Including the previousl mentioned "used to be perfect" Juditta (I bought a dildo from one of her sets when I was a member back in 2002(ish) and it's still a prised posession.
The girls are often gorgeous (not always it has to be said but more often than not) and are often pretty exclusive to 1BD sites. I've never been a fan of the other niche ddf sites so can't comment on duplicated sets.
The sets are often original concepts with interesting camera work and the vids have the right kind of balance between tease, closeup, full nudity, postions etc.
Everyone should have some DDF content in their collection and 1BD is a good place to start...and maybe even stay!?! |

Enter Belladonna

|
Pros: |
- Belladonna -> She's a dirty, dirty girl!
- Video content pretty good quality and recent posts are single file videos.
- Great BTS and interview videos.
- Lots of exclusive content |
Cons: |
- Lots of upselling.
- No zipped photo sets.
- Videos only in MOV format.
- No regular update schedule |
Bottom Line: |
If you're a Belladonna fan then this is a must. Belladonna is a one off - got to be the dirtiest pornstar out there - double, triple are just the beginning! I usually like my porn to involve beutiful girls with knockout bdies - but Bella is the exception. OK - she's not classically pretty and her body is not perfect but it's what she does with what she's got that makes her stand out.
Site is a little outdated these days - has a bit of a 90's feel to it and navigation is a bit amateur but it's the content that matters and a good download manager will get you some nice hardcore, dirty porn. |

Pros: |
+ Different from any other site you'll find
+ Generaly very hot girls
+ Bonus Photo sets with each download
+ Recent software is pretty reliable
+ Interview videos for each model
+ Cheap if you pay a subscription rather than buying setes on an ad hoc basis
+ great online comments section |
Cons: |
- No way of viewing the "performances" other than with the software
- Sets ore often not very explicit |
Bottom Line: |
Bored with the usual sites? Then this is for you. The content is played back using bespoke software meaning the girls appear dancing on your desktop. The software itself is great - small footprint, highly configurable and a recent annnouncement on the site says new sets will be alpha blended (meaning desktop integration will be smoother). You can set up favorites, transparency and even some very nice screensavers.
Nice - EXCEPT there is no way to choose the content - each set is made up of a bunch of stripteases varying from fully clothed teaser sessions through to full spread lovelyness. You can force a girl to strip (right click - strip for me) but you can't choose which video to play - or rewind or pause, etc.
Which makes the whole thing a bit of a gimic really. I thought about trying this out years ago but put it off. The new software and quality of models made me take a 6 month subscription out (currently 10euros per month one new strip per day) but it's very difficult to ...er...."use the naked girls for their intended purpose"...if you catch my drift!! Gorgeous girl gets naked, spreads herself for you (if you're lucky!!) and before you know it she's back fully clothed and poncing about with a pole. Then there's no way to go back and find the content you want again. I guess some may like this luck-of-the-draw. Not me.
Of course, the plus side is 100% exclusive content and there are some VERY hot girls here - Eufrat, Walleria to name but two.
Each stripteased also has a goo quality matching photoset which is also striptease based and set against a plain white background. Each model also has a couple of videos including interview reels - again, a nice feature if you like a particular model.
So - a difficult one to call really. I'll mark it up for being a good community site with hot models and good content BUT the limitations have got to make me mark it down to an "average 79". There was a peice of software for the earlier version sets that allowed you to control what was played back but there's nothing like that for the new version. Shame - as that would fix all my gripes. |

Updated: |
05-09-13 07:27am (Update History)
Reason: Some errors in my original review plus additional thoughts after a few months of membership
|
Pros: |
Ann is damn near perfect if slightly off her prime
Excellent image quality
HD Video quality |
Cons: |
Not much content yet
Updating is a little inconsistant
web cam shows are always the same time (no good for the UK!)
Only zips for the first 10 image galleries |
Bottom Line: |
I've been a big fan of Anna's for years. Hers was the only "tease" site I have ever had a membership to way back in the days when seeing one of her nipples was a rare occurrence. I guess she was playing the long game as she's gradually been showing more and more over the years and guys like me just keep coming back for more.
***
I wanted to update this based on a few months of membership.
First off the video quality is much better than I initially stated. Downloads are full hd rather than the low BW streamed ones.
But - the hardcore video is pretty poor as it's all shot by either locked off cameras or handheld iphones. So the action is either low qulity or missed altogether. I mean - she's still got a sweet body but if you want great HardCore this is not the place to go.
The photo shoots are dropping their quality a little too. Almost all outdoors and voyeur style recently and updates are not that regular.
So...if you're a big time Ann fan - still go for it (even if she's not QUITE as hot as he was 10 years ago!!) but....be a little wary.
I left her annangel.com site a while back when the frankly ridiculous piracy protection ruined it. It was a real shame as Anna was putting out some wonderful videos and getting closer and closer to hardcore.
So...I was VERY interested to see the new xxx site but was wary of joining in case the same draconian download restrictions were in place. But - having just joined up I'm pleased to say that all content is downloadable (although only the older galleries have zips).
The site is pretty simple - you can either jump straight to gallery updates, video updates or the blog list which includes both plus some nice little extra comments on photos by the godess herself.
The site is a little too reliant on WordPress so if you want to comment on any posts etc. you have to be logged into both the site AND wordpress.
Overall - this is just all about Anna. She's had once of the hotest bodies on the internet since around 2004 and she's still got it...in spades. With a bit more work the site could be worthy of her...it's just not quite there yet. |

Pros: |
- Lots of "completely nude" sets
- High Resolution photo sets
- Zipped content
- Exclusive sets
- Good site navigation - uncluttered design
- Online favorites section (galleries & movies)
- Works well with site ripping software & download managers |
Cons: |
- not much variety (lots of outdoor shoots)
- Nice blog section hasn't been updated for a couple of years
- nothing you can't get on (IMHO) superior sites such as FemJoy and MetArt |
Bottom Line: |
Don't get me wrong - I like the site. I like my porn to feature insanely beautiful girls. You know - the kind of girls that on an unfair planet you would never get to see topless - let alone spreading their labia. Just occasionally this site delivers one of these creatures and this was what tempted me to AVErotica in the first place. But...it doesn't appear to be happening enough to keep my hard earned money going to Mr Volkov. THere are currently around 130 models on the site and a quick browse through the mug shots only meade we really want to investigate around 10 in any more detail.
The site is well laid out if a little simple and feature light. The set rating feature seems underused (even the "Top Rated" models seem to have only around 80 votes each) so isn't very reliable. Not a big deal to me as I tend to download everything and keep everything but...
Video content is of a high quality but updates are only once a week and most have one of those awful Kenny G style soprano sax soundtraks.
If you're a fan of very naked, usually quite pretty Russian girls in fairly explicit poses then this site is probably for you - especially if you can't afford the membership to MetArt. Nut But I'd be suprised if you kept the membership going for more than a few months. Personally - I'll probably join for a month every other year or so and use download mangers to rip the last year's content as both download speed, no DLManager limitations and full archives will make it a good deal. |
