I think by now most of us are aware of the Lightspeed Girls' sites including: Tawnee Stone, Jordan Capri, XXX Raimi, and Dirty Aly, as well as many other cute, young girl sites. Even when writing the follow-up's recently for some of these sites I noticed that the video links now take you here, to LightspeedTV.com, "the only all-video site with all of the popular video content from all of the Lightspeed sites!" Wait a minute, did I read that right? All of the Lightspeed sites? There is over 26+ of them, you know? The price is still rather high, set at almost $40 bucks per month, but there are more than 620+ short video clips to check out, all of which can also be access from a membership at Lightspeed World, but let's just say for a minute that all you care about is the video content and nothing else, well that's where Lightspeed TV comes in.
The Good:
- Lots and lots of video content here to check out with updates coming in sometimes multiple times per day & week. You'll find all your favorite Lightspeed cuties in all their live action glory. There's even a model index listing all 28+ girls and their videos. Most girls have about 30 videos, but a few of the classic Lightspeed girls can have more than 100+.
- Each video update lists a quick description including location, clothing, panty color, girls, action & niche. It's too bad they don't cross link all these descriptions; that would really make browsing fun. But I digress, there are plenty of format types to choose from: WMV (clips & full), MPEG (clips), QuickTime (full), iPod (full), and mobile (full). These are download only (no streams) and your best option for quality is either the QuickTime or WMV option, but I think it could stand to be improved quite a bit overall. More on that later. I should also mention that only the full-length WMV files are 1100k. The smaller clips are only 550k.
- One nice feature I found that I haven't seen before is the ability to tag the video with a keyword that will be added to the Lightspeeds’ favorite’s library and searchable for later use. Pretty cool, but I didn't see the actual search feature anywhere.
- The site design is quite rough around the edges but does offer what's new, most popular videos, a model list, and all your extras.
The Bad:
- Quality stands to be improved quite a bit. I thought the QuickTime videos looked the best, but they were still somewhat washed out. Only the full-length WMV videos went up to 1100k, but even then the quality was nothing to write home about.
- Site design is rough. Everything is text, text, text. I like that they offer a model index with preview thumbs, but where the information about the girls. These are exclusive Lightspeed models after all. It looks like they might be gearing up for a search feature in the near future, but as of now there is no way to browse by specifics.
- Why join this site for $39.95 per month when you can join Lightspeed World for the same price and also get access to the girls' image content? It just doesn't make sense.
The Conclusion:
It's nice to see the Lightspeed group of sites strive to make some changes, but overall I'm not sure they're really headed in the right direction. Rather than focusing on an additional site to join at a high price, they should be working on giving all of their sites/main network pages a face-lift, as well as bringing much higher quality content. Granted, if you like the Lightspeed girls and just want to see their videos without all the fuss, LightspeedTV.com is your answer. But if I'm spending almost $40 bucks per month on something I want to see it all.
