Yeah, I knew there was a change like this coming After April 2nd but it's way more drastic than I had realized.
As far as I can tell they really don't tell people what the membership actually includes before sign up. Just that it is eligible for upgrades for an additional 10K videos and 200+ VR scenes.
Are you able to see what the cost is for their channels?

I currently have a subscription that was active prior to this change, so I still have access to everything that they locked out on April 2. I'm interested to see what the pricing is like for new members though because things look pretty dire.
Damn near everything has been broken out into a separate channel: including most (if not all) VR content and most (if not all) of their major series/sites - My Friend's Hot Mom, 2CST, Naughty Office, Housewife 1on1, My Dad's Hot Girlfriend, My Friend's Hot Girl, I Have a Wife, etc. etc. EVERYTHING.
It's not clear at all what content a base subscription will even get you. If it's just a random sampling of 100 older videos though, that's probably going to seem worthless to most people.

Yeah...this seems extremely bad. I had an active membership prior to April 2, so I've been grandfathered in to still having access to everything that's locked out. If you're considering a new subscription though, absolutely don't do it until someone takes the bullet and figures out what the new pricing structure is like.
It seems like damn near everything (if not literally everything) has been broken out into a separate channel. If you're just going to get 100 random videos from the backlog for the base subscription price, that's essentially going to be worthless for anyone looking for new content or specific pieces of older content.
TLDR: Do NOT create a new subscription until more details are available.

It would appear that the membership gives you access to purchase channels for various video series like "My first sex teacher" etc. at $35 a piece. I think NA is now the most expensive site in existence if you want access to all of what they used to offer with a normal subscription.

Naughty America was on my list of sites I'd regularly join. I really like a lot of what they produce. But... based on what you guys are saying it looks like a new subscription won't happen until at least there is more information available or Naughty America gives up and goes back to the old model. Or maybe this will just kill them after a while once everyone who isn't aware of the changes joins without the knowledge of the changes.
I get that the porn business is changing and that it is getting hard to make a profit these days, but crap like this will only make paying for porn even more rare.

Apologies for the double post above - first one didn't seem to go through so I wrote a new one.
Anyway, I don't know if this pricing is the same for every channel, but there are a few things that were moved into channels before I started my current sub. One of those is Wives of Vacation, which is showing that it's $17.95 for one month or $50 for unlimited access (as long as subscription is maintained).

Here's as much as they are willing to detail: https://tour.naughtyamerica.com/media/you-have-questions-weve-got-answers-1576
It's...pretty bad if you haven't kept up your membership with them. Very much like Loot Crates from Electroic Arts video games.
It's like going to a restaurant where you 1st have to pay a gate fee. Then they throw you a random side order of last years fries, onion rings, who knows could be anything.
Then you can order from the secret menu no one can see from outside the restaurant from a growing number of food categories for an unknown price that may contain fresh food or may be something stale that was made years ago.
And if you leave the restaurant for any reason they will take the food back via the Heimlich Maneuver.

Blimey this does sound like madness and a sure way to piss people who pay for their content, sounds like an awful deal now, I'm staying away for sure, thanks for the heads up.

I should say that the OP is incorrect about only having 1-2 new scenes a month. They are rotating in content each week. The thing is the content is random, so it may or not be something you wanted. If you want a specific thing you need to buy the channel for it.

That sounds like an apt and accurate analogy. RIP Naughty America.

Yeah. This does invoke the same sort of nickel and diming that a lot of video game microtransactions do.
NA has always kinda been my default go-to for pornstar porn, but I guess I'm going to have to find a new one.

It's kind of odd that NA is going in this direction when other sites are going in the opposite - Karups, Hard X/Lesbian X etc, Teen Fidelity/Porn Fidelity - all making the related network's sites available for one price.
My suggestion - give it a year. I would bet $5 - I know, I've never been a big better - that they'll go back to their previous all-inclusive model within one year - or lower their prices for the individual sites so that all combined they equal what the unified site used to be.

I was just about to join NA after being away for a few years but thought I'd better check back here first. Good job I did. You saved me wasting some cash. I'll join Brazzers instead. I used to love NA and have been waiting for the content to build up before re-joining, but I guess I will never again. Their new pricing structure will mean that as people still want the content but not pay crazy prices for it, it'll end up on file sharing sites soon enough.
If that happens NA won't be around much longer. A real shame.

Word is they may be close to Bankrupt. They may not be thinking long term.

I don't know who works as the "voice" of NA, but reading the forum, they come off as a complete asshole. Members - not just average people walking down the street, but members of the site that are trying to nail down how this whole thing will work are told - and I quote, "Everything will be constant flux. With your membership you will have options to make purchases as they become available."
When you click on a video on the site before joining, their big "sell" line is, "Get Access to Select Full Videos and Upgrades"
Ooh, boy, nothing like joining a site to get access to "select" full videos and upgrades.
I wouldn't join this site now on a bet!

Scott used to do most of their PR, but more recently it's been the owner. And yeah, he's not as tactful. Still, there's really no way to spin this and make anyone feel good about it no matter who was out front.
