| Pros: |
- I'm thinking it's the biggest porn site on the internet.
- It's a DVD site sort of and a separate studio that shoots their own content and that licenses some content that's only available on previously exclusive sites.
- The amount of classic content makes it worth joining. I'll go into that in BL.
- Navigation is pretty good considering how much content they have.
- Download speeds are very good, 80%+ of my max download speed.
- TBP/PU price makes it an even better deal
- Could be a treasure trove for collectors and likewise, could be a good place for newer porn users to start a collection.
- Numbers that are unbelievable in amount of content.
- The original content is on par with most of the big networks like DDF, Reality Kings, etc...
- Updates 4 full DVDs per day and 4-5 updates per week from their original content.
- Will leave you feeling like you got your money's worth.
- 16,500+ models |
| Cons: |
- Well, it can be overwhelming. I think the numbers will show that better than I can say it.
- Here's a real con, the vast majority of the videos that aren't their original content come in all shapes and sizes of resolution. Including some as low as 480p.
- In some sort of strange way, I consider this a con, there's a lot of content on here that was exclusive to other sites for many years. Maybe it just feels like I've spent all those years collecting exclusive content now see a portion of it here in one place. |
| Bottom Line: |
I usually start a review with a lead-in to the expected tone of my review but...
118,552 videos. Over 20,000 DVDs included in that number.
Others have mentioned the connection to Videosz and I can see that too. Some of the videos I've download still have the Videosz watermark on them. But there's also videos from once exclusive sites like DDF and 21 Sextury. Consider me shocked on those two. I thought maybe the DDF content would be a small sampling but it's over 700 videos from DDF.
The studios they have on here are common for DVD sites to have but not in this amount. They have 1,649 videos from Private. And 3,600+ from Eromaxx. Eromaxx is the studio behind Tainster. I do remember Videosz having some of Eromaxx's content for nearly 4,000 videos? More than anything, I'm showing why it's overwhelming even to an old porn digger like me. I have joined DDF, 21 Sextury, Eromaxx/Tainster and been overwhelmed by their sites. Here, they have these studios plus 8 pages of more studios. I would need a year subscription to this site to feel like I covered all of it.
Also of note: When you come to a DDF video on their site, under the video it states it's from DDF and that's on every video that's not exclusive to Bang. I think it's a nice touch because it shows they're not trying to fool anyone.
Their DVDs took up the first 3 weeks of my membership. April Flowers, one of my favorite models to collect, has more content on here than my entire 10 year collection of her has in it. She was a huge star in the late 90s, early 2000s. Charlie from Vivid? She's here. Just name a model, they're here. My all-time favorite model Eve Angel almost always did exclusive content only. She has 30 videos on here.
There is the one big con and that's the varying quality. I'm taking a guess that whoever licensed this content from exclusive sites did so for the original content not any remastered content. Same with DVDs, they are in the original resolution so you will see a lot of 640x480 (the old standard in DVDs) videos but where does the need for quality pass the need for quantity? A good example, the April Flowers scenes, because they are from around 2000, I've never seen them anywhere in any better than 480p quality. So, no loss there but there are DVDs here that I have seen at other DVD sites in better quality.
Over to their original content. They have it separated into sites like most networks do. You get these exclusive, original sites with amount of content out from each:
Bang! Real Teens - 107 scenes
Confessions - 53 scenes
Glamkore - 33 scenes
Bang! Japan - 353 scenes
Casting - 77 scenes
Real MILFs - 7 scenes
Gonzo - 56 scenes
This original content is very similar to what you'll find on the big networks. I will mention that the Japan content is uncensored and as the number of scenes shows it updates a lot.
So, if I were to try and explain what this site is it would go like this ... it's a newer network that has read and heard many complaints about not enough content so they went and added a top-tier DVD site and collection to their site so if you feel there's not enough original content, you can go back and find some DVDs you want or collect favorite models.
I can say with confidence that this hasn't ever been tried, at least not on the scale they are doing it. I do remember a few networks trying to add DVD content to their bonus sections but I would say Bang's non-exclusive content surpasses Videobox and Videosz. Which shows the value. With the TBP/PU price at $17.99, you're getting a DVD site as good as the best DVD sites and an exclusive network too. For some reason, I keep going back to the Japanese content. I have always been intrigued by Japanese models but most of the hardcore or even solo masturbation I've found is censored. Their Japanese content includes uncensored, situational masturbation, like sitting in what is supposed to be a public place with a skirt on. One camera shows the model's face while the other is in front of her skirt, under the table, showing her masturbating in "public". The other original sites they have are good but I have been burnt out on most of the straightforward network content.
My score might not look as impressive to some but I'm putting a personal twist on the score because I don't have the time to go through all this content. I also believe it goes into elevating quantity over quality which has also hurt the DVD sites in my recent reviews of those. If you have the time and patience to go through 122,000 videos and you like current networks like Reality Kings, add 10 points on my score. I did get all the April Flowers content and a couple of other old favorites. I also downloaded 75 of the Japan scenes too. Others will say my score isn't bad and it's not meant to be. This is a good site for anyone. Collectors like me will find content they haven't seen of their favorite models. Others will like the original content. It's deserving of the praise it's receiving. |
