It isn't that anyone is ignoring the material you mention; rather it is that the material is not readily available to the members of this site who seem to be most active, namely, those in the USA.

As a minority member here (a part of the small gay contingent), I have to say that all seem to be most welcome.

Hurricane, seeing as how ADT itself is based in the US, I think it's natural that most of what goes on here reflects that fact. That said, I'd like to hear more about porn going's on in various parts of the world too. Are you volunteering to review European dvds, sign up European stores to the price search engine, and provide content? If so, Yay Hurricane!

Would be fine, if US porn were in a league of its own.

But that is not the case. European movies like "Edel Huren" (DBM, Family Blue) and "Schlampen mit der Faust gefickt" (Videorama, Faust Fucker) are better than any US porn I have ever seen.

[In my opinion "Euro" porn and European have as much in common as a French restaurant and a French Burger King.]

[Link]

So, instead of making inflamatory remarks, why don't you use the forums to educate us as to WHY US porn is so inferior to what you've seen. Give us some examples of what American porn you watched so we'll have a basis to compare your comments. The forums here are designed to include opinions more than exclude them so rather than just list a few of your favorite titles, tell us why those titles are so great and why we should yell and scream for distributors to release them in the largest market on Earth...

Oh yeah, why isn't Private considered Euro-porn? You've made me curious as heck. Especially since they force you to sit through a zillion different copyright warnings in a zillion different languages. Thanks again!

Just a detail: you can skip all the initial info on Private DVDs just by pushing the Menu button on your remote (at any time after the first second).
We try to bother you the less we can.

However, appreciate that everyone has an opinion, hence you say DBM is hot shit, while many people will be, as you say, of the opinion that Evil Angel (who do put out European made movies with European casts, directors etc)are the bees knees and so on.
Also be aware that while swearing undying loyalty to Evil Angel (I am using them merely as an example), many US forum contributors will be entirely unaware of the existence of DBM or Videorama.

So take these "so and so is best" comments with a pinch of salt. You don't agree with them, so let us have your reviews! That's the way to correct the imbalance as you see it.

BTW I am not sure about the distinction you make re: Euro porn?

[Link]

Of course ADT covers mostly US porn. US stores support the site. US porn companies send screeners. Private is the only non-US company that sends screeners and takes an active role in the site. (thanks, Private :) And Orgazmik is our only non-US store sponsor (thanks Orgazmik :)

We do everything we can to support our international members (eg adding international shipping rates to the price search.) And welcome reviews of European porn.

You have to realise that there is no distributor in the US for any European porn label other than Private so how do our friends in the US get these films to review in the first place.

If you say why not import there is one big hurdle. All European porn is made for the PAL market and is unplayable in most US households without the right equipment. We in Europe are fortunate and can play NTSC dvds with no problems.

Another hurdle is cost. How many European retailers do you know sell porn dvds at a reasonable price? I know of only one in the whole of Europe. The rest try to become millionaires overnight.

I try to redress the balance by reviewing primarily European titles just to give the visitors at ADT a bit of variety. But I can only do so much with a limited budget and time.

So why don't you help us out here and post some of your own reviews. Finally, is there an European equivalent of ADT that primarily reviews Euro porn?

Personally, I like a lot of the german movies that include bondage. I try to buy one or two every time I'm in Europe.

One of the reasons we can't get them at stores here in the US, is because movies that have both sex and bondage in them are still considered obscene (ie. illegal) in most of the United States.

Please review some!!!

>What types of European porn do you like?

I like the recent Videorama material by Harry S Morgan, for example "Schwanzgeile Fickluder". Pretty girls, and a good mix of kinky action (anal, piss, lesbian, fisting).

DBM: Debora Coeur is always great, and I like the movies by SX Kowalski e.g. "No Limit" (nice lesbian anal play)

Sorry, I am not into the bondage/leather/masks stuff.

[Link]

Private is boring to me. I'd rather see a good Buttman flick (BTW Buttman anal divas rocks !!!!! Good work John)
Mots of the Euro performers though doing extreme stuffs don't look like they are enjoying it (I still wonder what enjoyment a stunning 20 yo Czech beauty get from being pooed on ?)

Anyway, for having seeing porn from both sides of the Atlantic, I find US porn more innovative within the legal constraints they are imposed to and performers do seem to enjoy which is the most important in skin flicks, right ?

[Link]

Yes, I do like fisting scenes. It can be very erotic. See my "Dino / DBM " posting, featuring 10 top DBM videos. Videorama's "Maximum Perversum" series is also nice (sometimes!), while the "Faust Fucker" series is rather extreme.

Piss: doesn't do me anything. But as a short interlude it is certainly fun to see. Scat: no way.

US porn: I like Rocco, Christoph Clark, Tom Byron, JY LeCastel. Good stuff, but all rather basic (anal, dp). I haven't seen any US porn that matches the esthetic, stylish, decadent, bizar content of the best DBM or Videorama movies. If you know of such high class US porn, please enlighten me!!!

PS: and why doesn't Private fall into this "euro-porn" grouping of yours, especially since they are hugely profitable and based in Europe?

[Link]

Private: I don't like them. Not genuine porn, but slick (look at the covers, hardly a naked breast to see) and commercial. Clever marketing. They sell their products in malls and CD shops! Clear indication that they target the MTV-generation, couples, female students.

[I have one typical Private DVD in my collection: Superfuckers 1 by Pierre Woodman. Slick (trying to pleasing everybody and failing to do so). All quite average. The fetish scene is going nowhere, lesbian scene is weak, and the gangbang scene lacks good action and close-ups. Strangely the two "girly" scenes are okay.]

Companies like Videorama, DBM, Puaka make ZERO concession to the public. They will put a fisting scene in close-up on the cover, GREAT! Very hardcore, only available in porn shops and through mail order. That is the right attitude.

[Link]

Private not genuine porn? What is porn? Hardcore sex, by any reasonable definition. Haven't you been on here under another name about this? Anyway, your view on them is original, let's put it that way...

By the way, why do you keep referring to EUROPEAN producers (Clark, Rocco, Le Castel) as American?

Videorama DBM et al DO pander to the public - they give the punters they know will buy their videos exactly what they want. They ARE commercial in their own way - e.g. they know they would turn off HC fans like you if they put a "soft" cover on the movie. Their marketing tactics may not be as slick as Private's but you're living breathing proof that they work...

Sbando Boy, Gabriel Nine and Astroknight, thanks for your support.

This site has so much U.S. content because the site is developed in the U.S., the majority of visitors are from the U.S., quite a bit of the world's porn is produced in the U.S., and the stores that pay commission are based in the U.S. and sell porn produced in the U.S.

Either you don't understand that, hurricane, or you're just trying to bring up your point, which has been acknowledged and commented on. Your pronouncement of the obvious is not going to change the focus of this site nor the visitors to this site.

If you feel so passionate about this issue, I encourage you to develop your own site and cover the content you feel is appropriate.
