Excellent review, rearadmiral. I agree with you that VB2 is better than VB3. At the end of my last subscription I ignored VB3 altogether. I did have a problem with the site because I found that not enough of the updates featured mature women while models from the 18 - 23 age range (your cup of tea) abounded but, who knows, with my changing tastes I might give the young 'uns another look! :-)

It's good to see your coming around messmer! But now that you mention it, 'mature' is probably an underserved niche on VB.

VB2? VB3? What are these strange and new things of which you speak?

I am one of the few dissenters here. I joined them once and never went back. No customer service, the worst download speeds I have ever encountered (down to 1kb/sec on occasions!), regional discrimination, worst of all was the way the videos had the wrong dimensions so the bodies looked distorted. I have to admit I'm virtually on my own with my contempt for videobox.

Enjoy! I'm trying to decide whether to hang around for another month. I'm caught up on video downloads but I've been going back and getting higher-resolution versions of favorite scenesnow that I have a faster connection. And i also feel a bit guilty since I've downloaded probably 700GB so far this time.

Happy to do it. I know that this site gets reviewed a lot, but I like to think that a new review can still add something.

VB2 is the VB that you're familiar with if you've had a VB membership in the past couple of years. VB3 is a new, updated interface. The porn is still the same, it's just that the look is different. I really can't give you an opinion on it because I used the older interface because that's what I'm used to. VB3 does seem to be as easy to use though, so if it becomes the only interface I won't have a problem with that. Two of the 'premium' channels - Kink and Reality Kings - are only available by using VB3.
My biggest complaint with VB3 is that it 'fixes' something that wasn't broken. I suspect that it was a change made by marketing, not the webmaster.

I'm not surprised to hear that there is no customer service. I suspect that the site is just so big now that customer service just isn't on the menu any longer. I don't think I've ever had to contact them for anything so I have no experience with the customer service.
I can't say I've experienced the speed and distortion problems that you report. I use Free Download Manager to allow we to queue up a bunch of scenes and then leave it to run on its own and my normal DL speed is 1880KB/sec.
I realize that it is a personal preference, but give some thought to trying them again. Customer service probably remains as bad, but the other issuse may have been fixed.
