Pros: |
++ Good $3, 3 day full access trial through TBP
++ 17 site network
++ Exclusive Evil Angel content though some of it may be on other sites
+ No cross sales on signup
+ Some 720 sized HD vids
+ Fast download rates (about 1.5 mb/sec on a single download, about half that for 2-3 channels of simultaneous downloading)
+ Lots of anal and fetish vids for those into that
+ No DRM
+ A good number of recognizable porn stars
+ 100's of scenes / dvds spread across the network in a variety of niches
+ Several updates per week |
Cons: |
-- Crappy search function and no cross site search
-- Photosets are worthless and no zip function
- HD streaming vids are pretty choppy even on my broadband connection
- A lot of sites have some overlapping content
- Video quality varies from great to crap
- Many scenes and DVDs lack model info and scene tags
- My computer crashed a few times during downloads (not if this is the site but this rarely happens to me)
- Limited number of HD movies on each site, older vids are pretty low in quality
- If you're from Canada, read the terms and conditions before signing up, it's sort of messed up for the up north folks.
- Some of the featured directors sites have actors and/or directors yammering on during the scenes. |
Bottom Line: |
Other than the prospect of a cheap full access trial I don't know why I really signed up this site and I guess it shows in my score. For the uninitiated, this site is part of a 17 Evil Angel site network. Evil Angel tends to lean to the harder side of hardcore so don't expect much gentle solo softcore/midcore and story line material in the hardcore. Here's the bottom line:
PICS: In the network, most sites have only a handful of pics for their scenes. Most pics are just pose shots before the action. No zips. Good sized but only 30 to 40 pics per set. Quality and cropping varies. Skip this place if you want pics.
VIDS: All the sites have some 720p vids that download as MP4 files. All offer a high and low bitrate wmv download as an option. Most come in at 640x480 for the "high" quality content (non HD). All scenes have low and high level streams and the HD ones also offer HD stream but that was choppy even on my high speed connection. Fast download speeds but streaming took about 5 seconds to buffer on the "high" setting for me each time I jumped within a scene. Most quality is average while the majority of scenes are professionally shot with good lighting.
NAV: Navigation needs work. No model directory and no cross site search. Many sites have scene tags but many don't and not all are correct. No model info for many scenes so you're stuck if you want to find out who some hottie is. On each site you can search by movie title but the listings don't include all the movies on the site. Basically, lots of hunting and clicking to find what you want.
Overall, I can't really recommend joining unless you're a bit Evil Angel fan (in which case you've probably seen most of this stuff) or you're a collector looking to find specific porn stars. A lot of these sites have DVD series but even most of the series are just random or incomplete. This whole network feels a bit like an after thought, which it may well be in comparison to the official EvilAngel website (never joined that one so I don't know for sure). Videobox and similar sites offer a lot more content for the money once you get beyond the 3 day trial period.
Once you get beyond the known pornstars, the girls are fairly average looking and the production quality can vary quite a bit. I didn't find a lot that personally appealled to me and even with the crappy navigation / search, it only took me a few hours to scan over the offerings in the areas I was interested in. Average be this place so average be the score. |
