Current Member for less than 1 month (at the time of review).

| Pros: |
-Sometimes has a special discounted price or $5 for the first month.
Also, even though the ad did not specify any site except Erotica X, it came with access to the other four sites in the X Empire network.
-You get 2 confirming emails on joining. They give you your login details, plus the membership pricing.
-You can choose your username and password, to make remembering them easy.
-They have a nice model index.
-The content is advertised as exclusive.
-Login and member pages are secure (https). So your membership should be secure from hacking, and your ISP has fewer records of your site usage.
-The network has over 1400 videos.
-The site (and network) has an active forum, where you can can interact with other members, models and staff. A lot of the comments seem useless to me: staff congratulating members on earning "Agrees badges"

| Cons: |
PROS(CONTINUED):
(if a member makes a comment, and other members agree with the comment, you can earn a "Agrees badge", or staff congratulating members for "First Anniversary badge", for staying a member for 1 year.
The forum does cover a wide range of dates and issues, and it can give some useful background on the site/network, if you're into historical data on how the network works.
-You do have downloading privileges for the photosets, which download in a zipped file of one definition.
-The photosets are collectible. The photos are focused, well-lit and provide a record of each accompanying video.
-The tags for a video describe the sex action fairly well. There is also a trailer to give you a better idea of the video action.
CONS(START OF):
-Although part of Gamma Entertainment (which owns Adult Time), you don't get access to the Adult Time network.
-The biller and support are not the regular Adult Time entities, but ones I've never heard of. |
| Bottom Line: |
CONS(CONTINUED):
But since they are part of Gamma Entertainment, I hope they will be OK.
-The Best Porn states there is a daily download limit of 300GB. But that seems to be a huge amount of data to download, and should not be a problem for most PU members.
-Sometimes you are timed out of the site, and have to solve 2 captcha to re-login.
-Although the confirming join email stated I had streaming and downloading privileges, it turns out I only have streaming privileges for videos. I can download the photosets.
-Slow update rate. The site averages about 2 new scenes per month. Partly the slow update rate can be explained by the covid epidemic, which has halted production for most porn studios.
-Search engine is poor: if you put in the search term "Sadie Blair", it returns videos for Sadie Blair, Chanel Preston, Cherie DeVille, Blair Williams, Edyn Blair.
-Ads on every page. But at the bottom of the page, so not so bad.
BOTTOM LINE(START OF):
Current number of site videos: 347 scenes. The network has around 1,400 scenes.
Average runtime of video: 20-50 minutes.
Each video has a matching photoset.
All videos have the option to stream in 288p (or 360p) through 1080p.
The newer videos posted in the last few years usually have a 4K option.
You can add videos to a favorites list.
You can stream and download your favorite parts of each video, to save the "good parts".
You can play a slideshow of each photoset.
The videos and photosets have tags to help you sort/filter the content.
You can add your own tags, comments and ratings to the videos and photosets.
X Empire network has 5 sites:
All Black X
Dark X
Erotica X
Hard X
Lesbian X
I joined on a special discounted price of $5.00 for the first month.
The offer stated it was streaming only, with a membership in Erotic X.
It did not mention gaining access to the X Empire network of 5 sites.
However, once I joined and got the confirming emails, the emails stated I had access to streaming and downloading privileges.
Also, that I had access to all 5 sites in the X Empire network.
I don't know whether the ad I joined through was a mistake, or whether the site/network has messed up software, but I was happy to get access to all 5 sites, plus also getting full streaming + downloading privileges for $5 for the first month, recurring at $19.95/month.
Note: after going to the member pages, I found that I had access to all 5 sites in the network.
I could also stream (photoplay) the photosets, and download them.
I could stream the videos, but downloading the videos required a $9.95 upgrade.
So the confirmation video was in error: I did not have downloading privileges for the videos.
Or, you could argue that downloading privileges for the photosets made the downloading claim true.
PU has a discounted price of $14.95 for the first month, recurring at $29.95/month.
That is supposed to give access to the entire X Empire network, with full downloading privileges.
I would classify the videos (and photosets) as heartcore style.
Many of the videos have a plot where there is some problem between the model and the stunt cock: either they are both in other relationships, or they have a problem with each other emotionally. However, the stunt cock is supposed to be a smooth talker, who quickly convinces the model that they are right for each other, and a few kisses turn into sex. So the emotional feelings are supposed to lift the sex into a meaningful scene, where it's not just lust, but yearning and love and glowing sex.
Maybe if Disney opens an X-rated division, they can start making these kinds of films, and put them into the Adult Section of their Disneyland Parks (joke).
The selection of models is good. These are not the extremely attractive teen models of the Wow network, or even the very attractive-on-average teen models of the Teen Mega World network, but normally attractive models in their twenties. The models don't look like porn stars, but look like very attractive regular people. Not glammed up. Just good-looking females in their twenties. The videos and photosets are nice settings, nice furniture, the videos are clear, crisp, well shot and focused.
Maybe I'm bored with porn right now. I thought the videos and photosets were well done. Not outstanding, but well done. I'm not going to pay the $9.95 upgrade fee because I haven't found any special videos I want to collect. And I have so many other fine memberships already, that I don't need the videos from the Erotica X site. I have Adult Time network, the Wow network, and some other sites that are more than enough to add to my collection.
I'm giving the site, with it's access to the X Empire network, a score of 85.
It's a nice site, a nice network. But it doesn't impress me enough to extend my membership past the one month mark. |
