| Bottom Line: |
Legal Porno is probably the most expensive site you can belong to. It has fairly poor navigation, is more complex to understand than it should be, and is setup more like a digital store than a traditional membership site.
Despite these problems, I believe it consistently produces the best hardcore content each day of any site I know, making it well worth checking out if you can deal with its cost.
As a non-member you can view trailers of all their videos the same way a member would so you'll have a good idea of what content is available and if it appeals to you before you join. I appreciate this over sites that hide their updates from non-members or offer no trailers. LP is upfront about their content offerings.
99% of the videos are of young slim Europeans doing very hardcore anal scenes that you'll either immediately love or hate. There aren't really any tame scenes on this site. Any model working for LP really earns their paycheck.
Each month you are a member you accrue tickets that can be used to purchase premium scenes. I've seen these scenes range from 1-4 tickets. They are usually just under an hour long and are available in 640x480 and 720p resolutions. I wish they were in 1080p but the bit rate they use is high enough that their videos actually do look quite good.
Once you get a movie (whether free or premium) it is added to your "PornBox". The PornBox is like a digital locker or file manager, and shows you all of the videos you've ever acquired and you can download them from here. There's no limit to how many videos can be added and one positive of this approach is that once you've added a video here it is always available. Even once you are no longer a member you can return and re-download anything as many times as you want. The videos are yours for life as if you bought them on Amazon, iTunes, etc.
I'm told joining used to be a hassle because they made you prove that your credit card belonged to you but that is no longer the case. You can join the site as easily as any now and there is no attestation procedure to go thru.
You can buy scenes or tickets a-la-cart if you want but it's a bad idea because it costs so much more. If you want the best value then you need to choose the option to be member for 3 months which costs $79.90. So yeah... not cheap.
For that you get access to 1500+ free scenes (these cost 0 tickets and are decent but mostly not HD) and each month you accrue 40 premium tickets you can use towards the newest premium scenes. It is worth noting that tickets never expire. So there's no rush to use them before your membership ends.
In addition to this, each day that you are a member you earn 1 "free ticket". The free tickets can be used on premium scenes that are over 1.5 years old.
So you end up with 120 premium tickets + ~90 free tickets over the 3 month time period. This is the best bargain available on this site but obviously not at all cheap.
I think the idea of 2 kinds of tickets is confusing and dumb. Personally I'm OK with using tickets for the most recent scenes because I understand it's costly to produce what they are churning out but I think all scenes over 1.5 years should be totally free for members and not use a separate ticket scheme. Since every day another 2-3 videos become ex-premium videos this would give a constant stream of hi quality free videos for members and would make me gladly keep a constant membership going.
I find this sight tough to judge. On one hand it's so pricey that it's hard to call it a good value. On the other, I can turn to any page on their site and I want virtually every video they have and every day they produce new videos that look just as appealing. I can't say that about any other site. On many sites I'd need to wait a year before there's enough content I might want. On LP everyday they have something I think is worth while.
If you like their content, you'll have to be the judge of exactly how much it's worth to you. But since you can view the trailers of all their videos for free there's no harm in looking :) |
