1. Newest videos look nicer.
2. Lots of extra material.
3. Scenes are very well-planned.
1. Navigation could be improved.
2. On the expensive side.
3. Older video quality isn't great.
4. Not enough to see right now.
"Overall they need some more time to grow and mature here for my recommendation." |

Today's site we're going to take a look at is called Mask TV. Besides having some porn with people wearing masks in it, they really do a lot more for the world as a whole here. They fulfill your fantasies! Unfortunately I didn't see them doing too many favors for young, dorky white guys (though there were a few old dudes I would have not looked at had I known), so I may be out of luck here.
It'll take $30 to get in the door, which is a little more than I like to see usually. For that, you'll get access to some of their other sites as well (though I think Mask TV is their flagship offering). Once you login (which required entering my info twice), you're on the fantasies page which is where the magic happens. They give you some info on how to submit your fantasy, though the site seems on the small side right now so I'm not sure they really get to everyone. I also had the misfortune of clicking that large image block of text a couple times (trying to get focus back on my browser) which kept taking me to a form to fill in. I wish that whole thing wasn't clickable!
The episodes consist of video only, but they have a few parts to each one so hopefully the lack of pictures isn't a huge deal. Some have a trailer for some reason, which doesn't do much for me in a members-only area. The descriptions are good enough to figure out what's inside. The other parts I'm unsure about are the pre- and post-interviews, and the directors comments. I guess when I join a porn site, it's more for the porn than anything else. I think they're cool as extras, but not as a main source of content or anything.
The actual videos usually come in two quality options in Windows Media format. Some, but not all, also add a Quicktime option as well. I had to enter my login information again as the videos are stored on a different sub-domain, and again as Windows Media Player opened :( A majority of the videos look just okay, even in the high-quality option. They are 320x240 around 250kbps, and look a bit choppy all around for me. Newer ones are 480x360 and 575kbps, which look a lot better. I think the big story here is the production, which it looks like a lot of work goes into it. They're a bit cheesy at times, but they try to get everything done right.
I don't see any update dates listed anywhere, so I have no idea how often new stuff comes along. This relates to the biggest problem here which is just size vs. price. They need some more content here if you ask me, and I hope that can bring that count up next time we're here. Once the newer videos outnumber the old ones, quality won't be as much of an issue either. The site looks nice, but could also be made a little more user-friendly in navigation and browsing. What content they do have is decent, but I'd personally like to see more episodes and less extra stuff.
