Pros: |
- One of the internet's largest sites and highest quality sites.
- No longer is just about teasing or non-pink or non-sexual poses, the site continues to become a little more risky each time I join and it's a very welcome change.
- Not only will you find at least a dozen or more models you really like, you most-likely won't see half of them thanks to size of the site.
- Download speeds are very good (80% of max).
- The models are all very attractive, very much teens and they're becoming more playful.
- The quality is close to as second to none as you can get, that's technical quality.
- The pictures can be so big that they're bigger than life-size. I opened one and all I could see was the model's belly button and a couple freckles. That's virtual reality to me.
- For a site this size the navigation is very good.
- The videos are nice technical quality and some are good, not great but the real draw here are the pictures. |
Cons: |
- So, about those videos, it's not meant as disrespect at all or even demeaning to the models but most of these models are so young that they're just not seductive in the videos. It reminds me of watching a woman do naked yoga. Some might like that but some won't.
- Similar to the other sites on Met-Art's network, there are cam girls over on the right of your screen.
- This is a new one that I hadn't seen before, "staff selection" videos. Looks interesting, started playing one ... it's a 30 second sample. If I want it ... pay $4 for 1 video. I don't like it. I know, I can skip it but when you're posting videos of non-masturbation then post one of masturbation and tell me I have to pay to watch/download it, I don't like it. |
Bottom Line: |
I've been trying to review sites that aren't reviewed as much but my subscription to Met-Art is running out in a few days and I wanted to review it.
For years, Met-Art frustrated me. I like pictures as much as videos. They're taking really good steps to improving the photo sets. More models are starting sets in clothes and teasing, that's a big improvement to me since used to it was "she's naked" in picture 1 and by the end of the set she's still naked and not showing anything. Now, you're going to see most everything including the fun teases, upskirts, upshorts, panties slid over. I'm glad to see them adding more sexuality to their site. I used to kind of "poke at them" for their models doing the "what is over on that hill over yonder" poses. Now, they're doing, "I'm bending over, what do you see?"
I listed in the cons and I really don't like the "staff selections" videos that feature masturbation, which very few if any of the regular membership videos show. At that asking price, two videos would cost almost as much as I pay for a monthly membership to Met-Art. I've been borderline on complained about Met-Art X having masturbation while Met-Art doesn't but I think Met-Art at this point has earned the right to stick to no masturbation videos on Met-Art ... which is why I don't like the staff selection videos. It makes me feel like they could just combine Met-Art and Met-Art X if they're going to charge extra for masturbation.
Met-Art's strength has always been photo sets so I didn't really punish them in the score for the video problems.
You get 4 new photo sets per day, which is more than anyone that I know of. And they have a very good variety of settings. I know someone asked recently on another review of another site about photo orientation. Met-Art has a good blend of both portrait and landscape orientation in their photos. The overall numbers would normally be more than I would try to include in a review but I'm going to try it in this one.
Here goes nothing...
18,886 photo sets
812 videos
And yes, those numbers could be wrong! I would say even if they're not exact, they're fairly close. Just estimating, that's around 1,500,000 and 2,000,000 photos. When you add in that high technical quality, it's all but impossible to complain about Met-Art.
I'm going back to the beginning because I have been very impressed with their style of shooting in the newer photo sets. We've got upskirts, upshorts and the lost art of skin-tight shirt with nipples sticking out. I don't want to say they've been influenced by anyone but a lot of these newer sets are very similar to the sets on Zishy, which to me is the best tease photography site on the internet.
The navigation features updates tab, films, photos, model list, blog and they all work! It let's you focus more on what your preference is and with a site this big that's a must. Maybe even ALS Scan has influenced them a little on the photos, I just thought about that and threw that in.
They also are adding a better blend of models, they're almost all slim/slender but a few are more built and you're starting to see more Hispanic, Asian models. That to me is where Met-Art is at their best. You're capturing very young models, so the teasing and hints at shyness is important to it. This also plays into the large photos. If it's an upskirt and you open one of the large photos, you can see everything you've ever wanted to see through the models' panties. The combination of adding more tease and big photos offsets the video problem for me.
You of course can download the photo sets in zips and some of them are as big as some videos you've downloaded. These newer photo sets are nearing 8000 long end. We have joked before about the huge pictures sometimes showing imperfections but in this case, with all this teasing, I don't mind being able to count the pubic hairs she missed while shaving.
Similar to Zishy, I just can't go all the way to a 100 with Met-Art because porn is photos and videos. I will say that if they improved their videos it wouldn't really change how I view Met-Art, as a photo site. So, maybe it's best that they don't try to become a solo masturbation video site. I don't even know that I would download the videos. I have a Met-Art folder that has over 300GB in it and it's all photos. It's going to be a long time before anyone threatens their dominance of the photo porn world.
I would recommend it to anyone but I like to think everyone likes some photos. If you're dead-set on videos, I can't say you'll be happy with these videos. I do want to mention someone asked a few months ago about sites that have videos of fully nude models lightly touching themselves but not full masturbation. Met-Art fits that description well.
Like some of my other recent, highly-rated, well-known sites, I probably won't review Met-Art again unless there's major changes. It's near perfect as it is. |
