You've written an interesting review of an interesting site. I've been a member here a few times myself and I share most of your opinions on the site. I haven't joined in a while mostly because the speculum use and vaginal fisting really aren't my thing.
I didn't know that they were affiliated with Met-Art these days. Thanks for pointing that out.

Hi RA,
AlsScan is affiliated with Met-Art. AlsAngels is not. I think it is pretty clear that the guy who runs these sites has always separated out the models by body type and put the curvier ones on AlsAngels. I wrote reviews years ago mentioning this. I hope he is doing really well with the Met Art arrangement, but for whatever reason, he is keeping ALSAngels for himself so the resources they provided to make the ALSScan site more functional are not available here. I think it is also clear that he has some specific tastes that apparently a large number of people share that are pretty much unique to these two sites.
But, like you, I am completely turned off by some of the bizarre, more clinical things on this site and would be much happier if the huge 200+ image photo sets were broken out into, perhaps, stripping and spreading, maybe masturbation, and whatever else is going on in them. By breaking out the sets, the site could draw people who are just looking for straight nude or sex stuff without forcing them to look at the more extreme items that are present in every single set. Ultimately, I think that compartmentalizing the sets would draw and keep more subscribers. It would also provide an opportunity to break up what is now one huge release into two. Webmaster, I hope you are reading this!

Many years ago when I first joined ALS Scan I was a bit uncomfortable with how they classed the models between ALS Scan and ALS Angels, with ALS Angels models 'unworthy' of the main site. maybe I'm the only member who noticed that though.
What I really miss is their Caribbean trips. I still watch those occasionally as they're a lot of fun to see. I suspect that with the porn market these days those kinds of shoots are far to expensive. They also had some European public nudity stuff that was great too. I wish they'd have more of those too!

Hi RA,
That's funny, I always thought the more attractive models always ended up at ALS Angels, at least that's how it was in the beginning. I would read about a popular model's photoshoot in the blog at ALSScan, then I would find out that the shoot was only over on Angels. I even commented about it on one of my early reviews. I suppose this is only a little worse than, say, Met Art listing additional sets of the model you are looking at along the bottom of a page even though many of the sets are on a different site.
In any case, Scan used to be the really young, really skinny, small breasted girl site and Angels was the site where the young, C-cup or better girls and pros went. I think it is still that way to some extent. I do not think there is a D cup anywhere on Alsscan. The delineation is STRICTLY a way to break one site up into two to generate more revenue as the type of material is identical.
Yes, the Caribbean trips were nice. But the industry has changed a lot and I'm guessing good models are much less common and much more expensive these days. I don't know what the contracts looked like back then, but the days of "Hey, I'll fly you to the Caribbean for a week along with 10 other bi/lesbian girls and all you have to do is a couple of photo shoots" is long gone. Now it's probably 10k a week per model regardless of where. Oh well.

LOL! I think you discovered why our recollections of Scan and Angels is different. You thought the models at Angels were better looking and that's the opposite from what I thought - but you note that the Scan models were "really skinny, young, small breasted..." Yup... that explains why I preferred that site!
Thanks for solving that mystery.

I don't get this at all. I'm a huge fan of ALS Scan - have been for years - and - like you - the speculum, gynecological stuff is not appealing to me much at all, nor is the pissing stuff that Alex, the guy who runs the sites, is so excited by.
It's one of my favorite sites because of the models and his photography makes them look hotter than they do anywhere else. I've been a member only a few times of ALS Angels because there have only been a few models on this site that make me feel like I needed to join. Again, though, the photography of those models is absolutely outstanding - the best on the internet. Check out the Andie Valentino & August Ames material - so freaking hot!
I fail to see how anybody is being forced to look at photos that you don't want to look at. That's the great things with photos. You spend times with the photos that you want to spend time with. You never have to spend any time AT ALL with photos that don't interest you. It's pretty much the same with videos, for me. There's the pause button. There's the stop button. There's the button to close the video window when you want to stop watching.
The problem I have with lots of people with particular fetishes is that the material is subsumed by those fetishes. On the ALS sites, I don't find that to be at all the case. There's plenty to enjoy even if you are completely indifferent to the fetish elements that the guy who runs the sites finds to be the most exciting elements.

I understand what you are saying about the photos, but the vids? Do you download them or stream them? If I'm downloading material (which I am), what I don't want to do is spend a lot of time sifting through and deleting stuff I don't want. That means I am deleting half of the material in each set because EACH SET includes one of the aforementioned fetish sections. Yes, I like ALS, too, or I wouldn't keep coming back. I like it for the attitude. But each time I sign up, I do it because I forget how ridiculous some of the fetish material is.
You are suggesting that I just skip the part of the video I don't like or skip the images that I don't like. In order to skip them, you have to LOOK at them and looking at stuff you do't like pretty much defeats the purpose of visiting a porn site in the first place. MANY other sites separate out the straight material (in both photos and video) from the more fetish-like. Some even break them out into channels or separate micro-sites. There's no reason why they can't do that here, too. None, other than it would be slightly more difficult for the webmaster (even though he would have more sets to publish)
I like ALS and I enjoy the girls, but they've been using the embroidery hoop for DECADES now. It isn't sexy or erotic and I'm really sick of it. By breaking up the 200+ photo sets or the 25 minute videos, they could cater to their audience much more directly.

Good one! I have nothing at all against skinnier girls but ALSScan has more A-cup-to-AAA-cup girls than I've ever seen anywhere else.

VERY Funny! :-D I totally get it. The AAA-Cup (There, I said it again) girls I have dated were small enough to lift with one hand, which could be a lot of fun, but I prefer boobs that work well as bang intensity meters without risk of knocking me out. Variety is one of the spices of life, though, and a couple of my favorite models (Lorena G for example) don't have much up top but more than make up for it in other ways.

I occasionally have to set the record straight when people say that I don't like breasts. I point out that I most definitely love breasts - I just prefer A and B cups. But, admittedly, on a scale of importance to me, breasts rank much lower than a nice bum.
Mmmm... AAA-cup...
