"With a great price, daily updates, and good content, what's not to like here?" |

ONLY3X (i.e. XXX) is up for review today, with visions of sex plastered all over their tour. Besides the previews though, they don't really tell much about what you'll find inside. You can tell there appear to be daily updates here, the content is 100% exclusive, they claim DVD-quality videos, and more. Another great benefit is the fact that they've lowered the price of membership for our readers, bringing it down to $15 a month instead of $30 a month. That'll definitely help them in the value department!
The goods:
- Quality is good. The specs vary from one video to another which is strange, but overall the video looks quite good here (some are even in high-definition, though that's not the norm).
- All exclusive content. What more can you say for the fact that they offer up exclusive content? It's better than non-exclusive for sure :)
- Updates come daily. They mix it up pretty good between picture and video sets, and something new is added each and every day. The way the present the content is a little familiar to another daily update site out there, but at least the updates are coming.
- Great price. $30 a month would have definitely been on the high side, so I'm glad to see the $20 a month special they're running for us. That makes the daily updates of all-exclusive content even that much more fun when the price is so good.
The bads:
- Downloads came a little slow for me. They did last time I was here too, and the same is in effect today. They're coming in about 1/4 of our top speed, and my download manager won't work because of their crazy URL schemes. Add that to the fact that you must fully download each scene first, and it's definitely a problem.
- Navigation could still be a little better. You can never tell if you're clicking on a photoset or a video until you get through. Even browsing the galleries and videos is annoying, the former because of a very confusing link to see the other pages, and the latter because they just mix video links up in a paragraph form instead of laying them out neatly.
- Vids must be fully downloaded. Combine this with the slower than usual download speeds, and you have to wait a little too long to see an actual video here. Some of the really high-quality videos can be approaching a gigabyte in size as well, which doesn't help anyone.
Conclusion:
The pros here are obviously the daily updates, exclusive content, great price, and good quality. The site itself could use a little work to help you find that content better and all, but that's definitely changeable someday. I'm surprised this site is scoring as high as it is as it didn't totally grab my attention right off the bat, but they do well with the basics and that serves them well.

Review: 08-25-08 |
Only 3X continues to grow and grow here with the daily updates, bringing their numbers even higher than they were on our first visit. They now offer around 700 galleries and around 550 videos, which is quite a bit of content. One sad note is that it turns out only around half of the content is exclusive here, and not all of it like I had assume before. It'll hurt the score some, but I'm sure they can make it up in other areas. The quality has been bumped up since last time with the addition of an HD video area, and some even larger pictures. All this, plus the special bargain price has been dropped down to $15 a month which is even better. Overall, everything looks even better this time around, though there's always room for some more improvement.
Score decreased from 85.0 to 84.5.
