| rockerhard Member Music Fucking City 20 Posts 10/05 |  Posted - Oct 12 2005 : 2:08AMWell I'm on a mission to find another high quality paysite to join. That means a lot of surfing, a lot of research, and a lot of reading of the fine print and terms and conditions. I've learned my lesson having been fooled before by misleading tours and broken promises. During my surfing, I've noticed that some paysites only offer videos in the streaming format. For those that might not be familiar with streaming videos, they can only be viewed from a browser on your computer screen. You watch it in real time and they cannot be downloaded to your hard drive. I find it amazing that some paysites actually advertise streaming videos as a benefit to potential subscribers. The reality is that most surfers who are familiar with streaming videos will run like hell from the site as soon as they see the words "streaming videos". A lot of perverts like me have kids, and some have wives that don't approve of their porn viewing (thank god I'm not one of them). Because of these factors sometimes we need to be sneaky to get our porn fix. Being limited to watching the porn from our computer screen just isn't to sneaky or convenient for that matter. Streaming videos can be useful if used properly, and that is to provide it as an option to subscribers as a ways to preview a video before downloading it to make sure we like it. How do you all feel about streaming videos? Would you subscribe to a paysite on a monthly recurring charge that only offered videos in the streaming format? I guess some perverts must like it or else these sites wouldn't be able to survive. Or perhaps they get a lot of traffic consisting of inexperienced surfers who just don't know any better. Hell, I don't know. Interested in your opinion..... [Link] |

| Do Not Filter My Results Member 173 Posts 6/05 | Posted - Oct 12 2005 : 12:55PM As far as good sites, I just joined videobox.com based off numerous good reviews. I must say it is very good and you can both stream and download and there is no DRM - The video quality is good as well. It has more than 400 videos on the site - I had been a member of videoz.com which is good too. But I do like videobox better because they seem to have more gonzo type titles than videoz. Videobox also has better video quality and does not buffer on new releases. Finally the price is right - $10 a month. [Link] |

| Joel Member 331 Posts 5/05 | Posted - Oct 12 2005 : 5:41PM Provided streaming in offered through quicktime & preferrably windows media it can work well. Java is slow. However, sites like meatholes.com (and all those that come with it) allows download only. The problem with that is that it often 10 parts, which personally, I find to be really really annoying - it gets confusing which parts you have downloaded and which you haven't, and you keep having to change the video every few minutes. Download is this format is a total no-no. BangBros.com offer streaming, one big download, or download in parts. 1 membership gets you access to all their sites. You should check that out.

| Jacco All-Star Member "liable to deprave and corrupt" 2673 Posts 5/04 | Posted - Oct 13 2005 : 2:28PM Luckily my boss understands too that DRM is wrong, you should never treat your customers as criminals. All DRM is usually cracked within days and it just annoys the majority of your customers, most of whom are honest. The second type of DRM is just evil! Jacco [Link] |
