I’ve decided to stray a little from the usual lesbian or and toy porn topics today, as my long time favourite adult video site (with downloadable hardcore DVDs) has gotten a couple of very noticable upgrades about a month ago that are definately worth mentioning. And with currently 259 lesbian and 137 masturbation scenes among the 4200+ total (not to mention all the girl/girl action in the loads of threesome and orgy movies if those are your thing - they are certainly mine :P), I guess we aren’t necessarily straying all that far from the theme here at Babes and Toys anyway.
On March 9 VideoBox gave their already speedy one-DVD-a-day upgrade schedule a huge boost.
Here’s a quote directly from the site (members’ section):
“VideoBox is new and improved!
What’s better than one new DVD per day? How about 1 scene per hour?
Not only do you get about 5 times more content than before, but we also aim to increase diversity by adding 1 scene from 24 different DVDs every day. Each day, we’ll add the next scene from DVDs that aren’t complete, and start a new DVD to replace the ones that are full.
So check back often — you’ll get a fresh scene every hour!”
There’s a neat little counter below the message showing how many minutes remain until the next scene is added - so if you’re really starved for porn you can spend way too much time staring at that countdown, waiting to see what’s coming next (no, why on Earth would you think I do that? :P).
In less than a month the collection of downloadable DVDs at VideoBox has grown to a whopping 753 as of today - and at this pace they will be ahead of the still largest direct competitor, VideosZ, in just a few months. And obviously the monthly membership price at VideoBox remains entirely unbeatable at $9.95 a month (and for that you can download movies 24 hours a day if you like).
The other big news is that for five bucks extra a month you now have the option of downloading all recent and future scenes in full DVD resolution (don’t know if they will go back and add that option to all the old movies).
720×480, 3500 kbit versus the regular “high” download option at 480×352, 650-800 kbit. The latter is fairly decent, but after having taken a look at the new DVD option I’m definately gonna stick with my upgraded membership.
The DVD quality files are pretty huge though as you would expect - around 400 to 500 Megabytes, so I’ll probably only be downloading my favourites in that quality.
You can read more about the new DVD resolution videos here, and compare them to the three other download options.
I have a review of VideoBox here if you’re interested. I haven’t updated the site info box with these latest details yet, but I will in a few weeks when I start going over some of the old reviews and updating the stats.
