Adult Rental is a video on demand site offering a huge DVD archive available in a pay-per-view setup. With a monster collection of titles, they've got movies from all the studios and stars you might hope to see in dozens of categories of action. The PPV system does make things a little different, but it's hard not to be immediately impressed with so much to see.
The Pros
Huge collection of movies!
They've got a massive collection of DVDs available. There are currently over 8,350 full-length DVDs online which is much more than we typically see on a site.. They have everything in every category that any star has ever appeared in, it seems. Ok, maybe not quite. But if you are looking for something in particular, odds are you can find it on Adult Rental.
Good navigational tools.
Getting around the large site wasn't too difficult. They offer multiple ways to browse the content including by date, category, pornstar, and studio. You can also view the top rated scenes or use the keyword search.
Other Good Stuff:
A good amount of info is provided for each DVD including the studio, stars, niches, production year, scene length, director, and description.
They've set up a special price for readers of The Best Porn, at 9 cents per minute and $6 3 day rentals.
Video quality wasn't bad. Some of the scenes looked a bit dated, but it's still a professional quality collection and the movies streamed smoothly. Each scene also has multiple quality options, going up to HD (although it's not actually HD).
The Cons
Videos are streaming only.
The videos cannot be downloaded. They only stream in-browser. The only way to have an extended play of a video is to purchase the 3 day rental for $6. That gets expensive, and even then you only get access to the movie for three days!
Expensive PPV set-up.
As with all pay-per-view sites, the price structure usually winds up costing you more than you would spend on a traditional membership site. With a cost of 9 per minute, you'll end up spending $8 to watch 90 minutes of a movie or $6 if you decide to purchase the 3 day rental. So basically, watch two or three DVDs and you've spent an entire month's membership to another site. With other video sites offering hundreds of titles, that can be downloaded, for much less, pay-per-view sites are only a good deal if you're looking to view one or two specific titles.
Minor Negatives:
There are no headshots or photos of the models on the model index. You have to browse by name with no option to just skim through the pictures.
Non-exclusive content. These are all non-exclusive DVDs that can easily be found on other sites.
None of the material here is dated. It does look like they're adding new DVDs, but I can't say on what kind of schedule.
Videos are offered as a mix of streaming Flash and wmv files. There wasn't a lot of consistency here as to what format you'd find on a given scene.
Bottom Line
A huge DVD rental collection with lots to see along with some expected issues.
Adult Rental is worth a look for anyone looking for a pay per minute DVD rental site. They offer a large collection and some good user features. Most of the issues are inherent to the genre, like the higher cost, streaming videos, and non-exclusive content. They could do a few things to upgrade the quality and they could improve the user-friendliness still. Overall, though, it's a solid collection that I'd recommend to PPV fans.
