I have noticed that there are still a good amount of pay sites that still do not have ture HD scenes. Most of these site are the dvd rip sites they say the videos are HD but the scenes are only 350mb to 500mb to small file size to be ture hd. Why are these still back 4 to 6 yrs ago they need to get with the times and get true HD videos

Let's take Videobox since it is the biggest dvd site on the net at the moment. Videobox or VB for short has over 14,000 movies currently in their library and they add 6 new movies each day. That means a little more than 2000 movies added each year. I don't care if they claim that all their movies are in HD because it's a lie or at least an half-truth since a large portion of these movies were never filmed in HD to begin with so it's impossible for them to release them in HD. HD technology is pretty recent so older dvd titles found on dvd sites can at best be remastered in a higher resolution but that depending on the source material may not be a good idea. It's like trying to magnify a smaller resolution photo. At some point the quality gets worse and worse.

I know a lot of videos were never filmed in HD you still should have better quality than 250mb to 300mb scenes

^The size of the file is representative of the videos resolution. A higher resolution equals a larger file so an older video has by default a lower resolution because it was filmed and uplaoded that way. I don't know how well you can Remaster an old video file but if you can and the final product is significantly superior than the only reason why you wouldn't do it is because the cost is just too high.
I love older porn so I would be thrilled if they offered remastered videos made in the 70's and 80's. Until they do then I'm stuck with the quality available.
