| Pros: |
-Can stream or download videos.
-They have links to porn review sites, including TheBestPorn.
-They have a short bio for Rocco Siffredi, the male star of the site. It lists his favorite drink (Vodka Martini, just like James Bond), and other facts that his fans might find interesting.
-There is an online store, where you can buy the latest DVDs featuring Rocco Siffredi, the Italian stallion (he was born in Italy, but now resides in Hungary).
-Easy login. Just need username and password, which can be saved. No captcha required.
-Can easily switch between sites in the network. Do not have to re-enter your username and password.
-PU discounted price of $14.95/month recurring.
-No DRM.
-Long time before site timeout.
-Part of the netFameSolutions network. You get over 20 sites included with membership.
Some of the bonus sites are small, niche sites. |
| Cons: |
PROS (CONTINUED):
But there are at least 5 major sites with a lot of good content. By good, I mean OK DVD quality videos, that are much lower in quality than videos at X-Art or 18 Only Girls or Young Legal Porn.
-Good download speeds. I regularly get about 1.3MB/sec, which is my max download speed.
-DownThemAll download manager works at this site.
-Can search for a model across all their sites. But the search will return the sites that the model's name appears at, whether that name represents a single model, or different models using that same name.
-The videos and photosets have the date they were posted to the site.
-Get a wide range of videos Rocco Siffredi has appeared in during his career, which spans more than 20 years. You don't get all of his work, but this guy has been in more than 450 porn films.
-Site updates with 1, 2, or 3 videos per week, along with matching photosets.
==================
CONS
-Many times they don't list some or all of the models in a video. |
| Bottom Line: |
CONS (CONTINUED):
-Many models don't have a thumbnail to show what they look like.
-For many videos, only choice is 240p or 480p. Some videos have a 720p or 1080p option.
-The video lighting and colors and camera work are just OK, but far below what you can get at sites like X-Art.
-The prices for videos at the online store, whether you purchase the DVD, or download to own, are expensive: DVDs cost about $60; a download of the DVD is about $50 (you own the file for your own personal playback).
A much cheaper alternative would be to join a pay site, and download the DVDs at that site.
-Watermark at bottom right corner of videos is large and very visible.
-They appear to rotate content. I've been a member at this site several times before, and there are videos that I used to see here that are no longer posted. They were Rocco videos, so there shouldn't have been any problem with the ownership. I guess they just drop some videos over time. I wish they wouldn't.
-They have a photoset accompanying each video. But the photos in many of the sets are screencaps.
=========================
BOTTOM LINE
Site Stats:
Movies: 1373
DVDs: 266
Pornstars: 1318
Pictures: 8214
HD movies: 413 (out of 1373 total movies)
Videos can be downloaded in 240p and 480p. Choice of MP4 or WMV download. Most videos do not have a higher definition download choice available. Some videos have a 720p and 1080p choice for download.
They have a photoset accompanying each video. But many of the sets are screencaps. I see little value in most photos, because they are not posed or framed by a professional photographer, not lighted by a professional photographer, the colors (skin tones, background sets) are ok to tell what is happening, but nothing to appreciate or respond to in an erotic way.
Some photosets at Rocco Siffredi are better than screen caps. An actual photographer took the photos. The photos are framed, they have good lighting, good colors, etc. They aren't the high quality you would find at a photo site like Met-Art or MPL Studios, but they are definitely better than screencaps. If you are a fan of Rocco
Siffredi, these photosets could have value for you as an addition to the video of the same shoot.
But again, I think the photosets based on videos posted at sites like X-Art, 18 Only Girls, or Young Legal Porn have higher quality, actual eroticism, much greater appeal, than any of the photos posted at Rocco Siffredi. The photosets posted at the other sites could be collected. But only a fan would appreciate or collect even the better photos posted at Rocco Siffredi.
There are tranny/she-male videos at Rocco Siffredi.I don't remember seeing them before at this site.
The WMV file is 30%+ or more larger than the MP4 version of the same video. I can't tell if the increased size gives a better definition or increased clarity. Both versions are supposed to be the same definition. So download the MP4 version, because it takes less space.
As I already mentioned, the videos are just OK in quality. These are taken from DVDs. The lighting and colors and camera work are OK, but far below what you can get at sites like the 18 Only Girls or Young Legal Porn or X-Art. You look at videos from 18 Only Girls from the last few years, and even the 480p videos just look so much better (better camera work, better focus, better lighting, better colors, etc.) than the videos at Rocco Siffredi.
Maybe some of the sloppiness is deliberate: maybe they are trying to create an effect that you are viewing scenes that are unscripted. But I much prefer videos that show they are professionally shot, that look sharp and well-lit with good to excellent skin tones.
The main sites in the netFameSolutions network include:
Devils Film
Peter North DVD
Rocco Siffredi
Silverstone DVD
Silvia Saint
Each of those sites contain a massive number of videos. A large portion of those videos are hot. The videos are OK in quality, but below what you will find at sites like X-Art. The videos are more like the quality you will find at Teen Mega World. Except that at Teen Mega World, I believe that camera work (focus, lighting, steadiness of camera, framing, skin tones, etc.) is actually slightly better than the videos at Rocco Siffredi.
In addition to the massive number of videos in many different categories you find at the 5 main sites, you also get access to a large number of videos in niche categories at other sites: including: lesbian, creampie, tranny, hairy, etc.
I'm giving the site a score of 80, because of the massive amount of video content and the wide range of categories you get access to. If they improved the video quality, improved the search to make the site easier to use, and put nice-sized thumbnails of all the models so you know what the models look like, and listed the
models in all their videos so you can tell what models appear in what videos, and did a few other upgrades to make the site easier to use, then the score would improve. |
