Abigail Mac's first new scene in over 7 months is also Brazzers' first VR scene... I guess they're taking the Naughty America route of wasting prime talent on VR scenes. So disappointing, considering that her mainstream shoots are few and far between now.

^^The percentage of VR in general is very less and doesn't seem to be increasing atleast in the porn side of things .

I was surprised - the cheapskates actually shot a photoset for Abigail Mac's VR scene. Small, but legit.

Just noticed some of the new scenes and upcoming scenes are available in 4K. If you play the preview a 4K option is available looks like they are finally going 4K if this is the case I will join for 12 months with download options.

Does anyone know for sure?

^ Of the last 24 videos, only 3 were 4K (and they weren't the last three):

Jelly Stepsisters' Girl-Fight for Big Cock Anal
DILFs Get Her Wet
Nursing A Boner (2700p. lol)

The bitrates are still pretty poor, tho.

For arguably the biggest studio in the industry (and owners who own a large stake of the industry) it's pretty pathetic they'll spend the money on top talent but cut costs on the final product (what viewers see; bitrate starved videos)

It will never happen because I doubt the organizations have the courage and most events are sponsored and awards bought in advance, but maybe if every industry award event snubbed all MindGeek sites and scenes for an entire year, it would send a message. Do better.

Why nominate and award trophies for scenes that objectively look worse than other studios?

You can say awards aren't everything but I'm pretty sure they do matter to those who have huge egos.

^^ It's kind of crazy your right they pay for top talent, they also put a bit of effort into production with overall good camera work and lighting etc. But then skimp on encoding they have been shooting in 4K for ages but just not made it available.

I'm hoping that they seem to be going to offer 4K is a great first step.

So Brazzers Plus is completely gone. So shocking that once you put everything behind a paywall, your traffic is driven to zero.

That site should've been for free sex shows that you had viewers just send tips. That's originially how it started, but then they decided to put everything behind the paywall!

They are offering 4K now but what is really dissapointing is that they have changed their HD Bitrate from 12000 to 6000 and now to 3380kbps which is a total joke. They even downgraded the existing Scenes that were 12000. I just watched one of their new "4K" Scenes and they just look like a stretched out HD version. The Picture from the HD and "4K" Content looks so washed out and the Quality of their writing also has really gone down over the years. It looks like they prioritising Mobile Devices because of the Small File Sizes. It´s really sad to see how low Brazzers has fallen.

I like that they're going into VR, however I do hope that they make VR scenes in addition to regular content and not as a replacement.

hi guys.
anyone knows about a series that alektra performed called "blue romance" for brazzers?
there is 2 part with keiran lee and manuel ferrara but the last(i assumed) part that is with erik everhard is not showing anywhere!
in the trailers there is a part that alektra tied to a chair that i think is for the missing part
can you help me understand that? :D

^^ The site newbrazz.com tends to show older Brazzers scene trailers. Try this:

https://newbrazz.com/search/alektra/

Near the bottom of the page, you can see that there are two parts to Blue Romance.

^ Hmm, I'm not sure what to say. I know Brazzers has gotten rid of a number of scenes on their site but those scenes are still listed on IAFD or Data18.

Sorry I couldn't help.

^ and ^^

I found a scene that says Blue Romance Part Three, with someone who looks like Erik Everhard. In the scene, she is up against a white countertop or in a white corridor setup. Is that what is missing? Here at ADT we are not supposed to mention any free sites. But the scene does have the Brazzers logo in it.

It is true that quite a few scenes have been deleted from Brazzers.

Also some scenes have had parts within them deleted. The Slutmother, with Kelly Divine, is one example.

The scenes with parts deleted usually have rougher sex or what some consider to be degrading scenarios.

If it is Alektra tied to a chair, as you suggest, that part of Blue Romance is a good candidate for deletion.

As a member of Brazzers for almost 5 years (yearly subscription), tonight I signed in and discover the site has changed yet again.

Seems like MindGeek consolidated all their sites to the same design. Sites in PornPortal are now searchable and watchable. I got in on lifetime subs through the PornPortal for pretty cheap (RealityKings, Mofos, Twistys, etc)

However, I have lost the ability to download anything. Can't even download ZIP galleries for older scenes!!!

MindGeek is truly a shit company.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but all sites (including those owned by MindGeek) still encode their videos with MPEG-4 AVC/H.264?

For 4K videos why doesn't anyone use HEVC/H.265?

Maybe nobody knows how since the industry never bothered with 4K Blu-ray discs.

There are mixed opinions, but there are some collectors who will re-encode their 1080p HD videos with HEVC to reduce file sizes but still retain as much of the bitrate and sharpness as possible.

Instead of keeping all their videos as MPEG-4 AVC and compressing them as much as possible (presumably to save bandwidth/hosting costs because apparently the biggest company in the industry needs to penny pinch) they would arguably get better results encoding with HEVC; smaller file sizes but would NOT look terrible.

Popular freeware such as Avidemux and Handbrake allow us "civilians" to encode in H.265. So it would not be too difficult for a studio to freely select the H.265 option over the H.264 option. It is true that 265 offers better compression and even a better look than 264, but it does take longer to encode than 264. Also, 264 is more compatible with video players than 265 is, although most video players can now play both.

My experience is that many videos are still being encoded in H.264. It is not as if everyone has jumped on the H.265 bandwagon. It could be the shorter encoding time required, or it could be that people prefer to work with what they are used to.

As an example of this way of thinking, there is an alternative format to PDF, called DjVu, that has been around since 1998, produced originally by AT&T, that was more efficient than PDF, and could have been used by an everyday PDF user. The DjVu format was also preferentially used to encode archives of prominent US magazines because of the format's superior compression, but DjVu is hardly used or known about today, although still freely available for Win, Mac, and Linux. PDF does the job, not necessarily the best job, but a job people are familiar with.

I think the industry as a whole is not as interested in creating the level of quality that the customers themselves might strive to create were the customers running the studios, especially customers who are also ADT members and see a given porn movie as more than a temporary fix.

It's a rough life, isn't it?

Do you remember the Brazzers Glory Days with Kelly Divine at up to 12000 kbps?

Then along came the deletion and/or "trimming" of scenes, and plummeting bit rates.

And now you have to purchase the luxury of downloading, too. Always grab while you can.

Yeah, Brazzers went downhill pretty hard. It used to be the best between 2009 and 2016. Went downwards after that
I can point a few things that made them go down pretty hard

1- Overly used makeup on the stars- All the Brazzers scenes from the past 4 years involve heavy use of makeup; so much so that every pornstar looks the same. Before you could see the natural features of the face and each star looked different but now every star has the same plastic face with no features, I looks so bad. The same star looks different and natural when shooting for VMG or NA than when shooting for brazzers etc. Make up is one of the things that looks the best when a little is applied- just look at their videos b/w 2009 and 2014. Kendra Sunderland, Skye blue etc. looks generic AF when shooting for ZZ while they look hot af when shooting for some other sites. Using Makeup as if it were Halloween is what made me and a shit ton of other long time members gave up.

2- Overly reliant on VR style POV= they ruined so many potential hit scenes with VR style POV like anal scenes of Jordi with Alena Croft, Alura Jenson etc.

3- Making so many comedy porn- This one pisses me off, a comedy porn is good every now and then, specially if it involves good fucking, but brazzers has many scenes, specially ones with jordi where they ruined it- no good fucking, weird positions, way too much focused on the parody aspect- if we wanted to watch comedy, we would go to youtube or netflix, not ZZ

4- Lack of new powerful male performers- this one hurts brazzers the most, From older talent getting weaker and out of shape and shooting the same style videos (Yes, I'm talking about Keiran Lee- Manuel and Mick blue are 7-8 years older than lee but are a 100 hex better) to newer talent being used more in a comedy routine and don't know how to fuck and all have the Jordi-esque style where they just hump like noobs. The only good talent the've got left, that can fuck like a pornstar is Xander and Mick. Danny D isn't what he used to be- see his scenes with Rebecca moore or cathy heaven etc.

5- Lack of good female performers- During the 2009-2016 era, Brazzers had Rachel Roxxx, Jayden Jaymes, Audrey Bitoni, Lisa Ann, Nikki Benz, Peta Jensen etc, and now they have sh*t-all. B/w lack of good pornstars, overly dolled up stars, lack of solid sex and BS scenes; brazzers went from "The world's best porn site" to the "World's best joke site"

No. You don't like the current performers on Brazzers and that's okay but you don't get to say that they aren't good performers because you don't like them for whatever reason. Talk shit about Mindgeek for being a horrible company with bad business practices but don't bad mouth the performers.

Everyone is talking about the quality, but did anyone notice they started adding trans content?

Doesn't seem to match the brand.

? No, Both haven't made anything worth watching in years. For porn, dramas and thrillers are the types of porn stories I like.
Nowadays, I only really watch porn with a plot and story, so I don't watch anything from Brazzers. They have the money and performers to make a great 2-3 hour series or movie but haven't.
Brazzers and Mindgeek could be making porn art and porn cinema but decided to just make the same lame low effort porn trash you see from every mainstream porn studio.

I said that with a wink because I think Brazzers would only be capable of dumb trash comedy ala Sandler. ZZ is like McDonalds or any other fast food chain.....or like an NBC sitcom. I wouldn't expect quality or thoughtful productions there.

This is almost a complete shitshow at this point. Haven't signed on for a membership with them a long time. Saw a deal online, decided what the hell. When you sign on they're only going to allow you to stream scenes. Whatever but THEN you realize half their catalogue is no longer on the site and to make it worse, you can still see the trailers for some of the scenes on the site before logging in, which is where you come to the realization it's no longer available. What a joke they've become smh...

Thanks, adt4addictlol.

Perhaps comparison-shop. I really like Kelly Divine. She has 98 video entries at EvilAngel.com.
Many are classic scenes, and some of the videos have her and other girls highlighted, too.

I recently joined EvilAngel, mainly to download Kelly's videos. The discount price was $14.95.

The following image is a screenshot I took of her at the site.
You can see the many different download options available for one of her scenes.
