I'll confirm some of Skippy's observations with this informal review. This site is little more than a subscription tube site - with mostly amateurish content. I've not had a problem with spam (yet).
When I want a break from the usual "Pro" shenanigans, I'll subscribe to an amateur site.
I read TBP GF Network review so I went in knowing it wasn't going to be great. Even with low expectations, it was pretty disappointing. I signed up to Oral Girlfriends which is part of the GF Network.
The site is called AmaLand and it claims to be a network which consists of 20 (or so) "girl friend" sites. A site has both photos and clips (it wouldn't be fair to call the videos "scenes"). The photos and clips are unrelated to each other. A photo does not tie back to a clip and vice versa.
Since many clips have multiple site tags, the clips are duplicated across sites and in some cases a clip will show up several times on the same site. Some sites have a few hundred clips/photos, some have thousands of clips/photos.
Clips have static watermarks or crawls: "As seen on AmaLand". The video quality of the content is poor. Many clips are 320 x 240 screen size with low bit rate (300 to 600 kpbs). Some are of better resolution/bit rate. Most clips are around 4-10 minutes long. Some are in the 15-20 minute range. There are some webcam clips that are more than an hour long.
Much of the content is amateurish because the photography and lighting are of very low quality. Most of the clips are shot POV and are very shaky (i.e., many clips look like they were shot lights-out during an earthquake). Many of the clips are unedited. You'll see clips presented sideways and even upside down. Clips will begin with lots of camera thrashing and end abruptly.
I consider sites like Wifey's World, Jenny and Joey, Asian Deepthroat and Home Grown Video to be quality amateur sites. AmaLand can't hold a candle to them.
Speaking of which, I saw what looks to be a JnJ scene and a Wifey clip on AmaLand. I also spotted a scene from the old Seymore Butts "Blow Me" compilation (scene 9). That made me wonder where the content actually comes from.
Steaming is done via JWPlayer. When I tried to scrub ahead on the timeline the clip would stop playing with a "media loading error" and the streaming would halt. I was able to use a download manager (IDM) however I found that if I did D/Ls with more than one connection, the speed dropped to 1/2 or 1/3 speed.
On any given page you get 4 or 5 ads for affiliated sites.
y opinion is the subscription is not worth $28/month. When I went to cancel I was offered a "special discount rate" of $1.12 recurring every 30 days. For what you get, even that discounted rate is too steep.
The CC processor is Vendo and both sign-up and cancellation were painless.
