Mrs SGS and myself were looking last night and we currently have subscriptions to 19 sites between us running at the moment.

Do you subscribe to any sites to see what’s going on?

We are always staggered by the amount of complete crap out there. We re-subscribed to one US “personality” site yesterday after about eighteen months to take a look and it was toe curlingly bad.

There is some great stuff out there now which are miles ahead of the crowd but the rest is quite dire.

Yes, 19 is a bit of a worry. :)

Some people would call it a porn addiction, but since you're in the business i think you don't count :) which has been your favourite site so far?

Well we both have bits that we like from sites in various niches but if it was for the quality of the content, ease of use and value for money and if I was a porn subscriber rather than a researcher (our story and we’re sticking to it :) ) then Bangbrosnetwork by a million miles.

We have had at least 5 or 6 separate subscriptions running with various sites for years and there is now a HUGE gulf in quality now between the vast majority of crap sites out there and the few very good sites.

I don't think i've been a member of any of the bangbros sites.

I came across a few sites with really blury and grainy pictures. I wonder how well it retains - although then saying that, amateur is in.

I never watch porn - that's disgusting

OK I'm lying - the only memberships I ever bought though was to Insex when it was live, and later Hardtied but that's only because I had the hots for the guy who ran it LMAO

I don't really care what my "competitors" are doing - it's not why I'm in this business. I don't compete - we just make what's in our derranged heads and if we like it then it's just a bonus if it sells.

I can remember having a subscription to Insex too a couple of years ago when we were pitching at the BDSM market. Whatever happened to them?

I've only ever subscribed to two sites - http://www.sierras-fantasies.com and the site of a hot Iranian chick whose name escapes me (and it's bugging me!).

I do get a steady stream of free subs to various sites though, which is nice :D

I tend to blackmail my competitors into giving me a free pass.

I dont sign up to anyone's sites...In my line of work I tend to be given free passes but never seem to look at porn...

I tends to be looking more along the review lines these days, never properly at the pictures...Omg whats happening to me?!

Anyhoo, Mr SGS I made a sale and received no free pass!(ok yes it was just A sale lol but one counts more than none!)
