| Bottom Line: |
I've been a member off and on over the years, and written both good and bad reviews. I have to say, there have been many improvements and this site is top notch.
Search doesn't always work well; sometimes I'll search for a model, get only one scene as a result, then click through to that scene, click on her name, and then see a list of scenes. Not sure what's up with that but makes me wonder if I'm missing out on content from my favorite models.
There's some weirdness with video formats. Newer scenes are available as MP4 only (which is perfect as far as I'm concerned), in 720p or 1080p, each of which has further options for bitrate. Seems a little like overkill, but I won't complain about too many options. Where it starts to get weird is on older scenes. Many are available in multiple resolutions, multiple bitrates, and multiple formats (MP4, FLV). Since they aren't very consistent, sometimes you just have to download a few and pick the best one. Also, older content that has 1080p downloads appears to just be upsampled from lower resolutions. Slightly blurry, with a tiny bit of discoloration around edges. Occasionally I will find a better quality version of the same scene on a different site like Videosz or Videobox. Seems to me like this site should have the canonical best version of their own content.
I would love to see some 4k content. Other sites are starting to do this, and I feel like this studio would be perfect for it. I didn't let this affect my score, as not many sites have 4k yet.
Bottom line: the site has drastically improved in the past year or so; I've even noticed improvements in the past couple months. Content quality is great, but like most sites, once you go back to older scenes it gets kind of hit or miss. Navigation is MUCH better than it used to be, but search could still use some tweaking. Can't wait to see them upgrade to 4k. All in all, a great site that's getting better. |
