Paul Markham Teens is the home of Paul Markham, "one of the worlds leading teen pornographers" since 1978. He sure does feature a lot of fresh-faced young girls engaging in hardcore sex action on his preview pages, which is enough to get anyone excited for what's in store in the member's area. $34.99 (recurs at $29.99 per month) gives access to all 531 of his high quality video shoots and over 168,800 images - now that's a lot of content! He promises daily updates and high quality, exclusive content covering a variety of categories like amateur, big tits, DP, anal, solo, lesbian, and of course, teen.
The Pros
Good Variety of Original Teen Content.
There's just a ton of content here! Lot's of variety, very hot young girls, hardcore, softcore, 3somes, pissing, etc. All of the content is tastefully shot, yet gives you a real sense of erotic pleasure. Most of the content is either girl-girl/toy or solo content, so I'd like to see even more hot boy-girl content being added to the mix (currently there are 213 boy/girl sets).
Some Nice Quality Content.
Much of the content is fairly nice quality, with image sizes as large as 1600x1067 pixels (although I noticed this varies even with the newer content) and video streams as high as 4000k (1280x720 some noticeable compression).
A Few Nice Browse Options.
A search feature is offered which allows you to filter & sort through the content by specifics. The content is broken down into categories and if, while browsing through, you find a model you like, clicking on her name will take you to all of her content. There is also a model index offered for additional browsing.
Other Good Stuff:
Videos are offered in full-length. The image content is also offered in 3 sizes as well as a zip file for download.
Lengthy scene info and some nice model information.
Updates appear to be added daily.
The Cons
Download Manager Use Will Ban Your IP, User/PW.
It took me over a week to finish this review, and not until the end of the week did I finally figure out why my user/pw kept getting banned. Of course it's my fault for not clicking on the disclaimer that reads "NOTE: We do not allow you to use auto downloaders (click for details)". Once I finally clicked for details I realized that you are able to use a download manager, they just block your ip the next time you try to log-in. Frustrating!
Some Content Appears To Be Rotated Through.
Based on my last count for the content inside Paul Markham's members area back in 2006, the actual #'s haven't really changed enough since then to agree with the amount of updates that appear to be added. In 3 years a total of 8,000 or so images and 130 videos have been added. While that's still an increase, it's not exactly on par with the update schedule and his archives only go back to 2008 when our initial review was written in 2006.
Inconsistent Download Options, Formats & Quality.
Browsing the videos, your main option for download throughout appears to be WMV. sometimes you are given the option for a higher quality WMV download, sometimes delivering at HD quality scene. Other times the HQ option isn't available. There are some, but very few videos that offer an iPod download. The lack of consistency is questionable since the room for availability is there.
Image sizing is also inconsistent. Further validating my though that content may not be exclusive and/or is being rotated through, some of the newly added image sets only offer images up to 1024x768 pixels, while others are 1600x1067 pixels.
Some Content May Be Found On Other Sites.
You may have seen some of this stuff elsewhere. I think this is all original content in that he shoots it himself, but at least some of it has been sold to other sites, which means you may have seen it before.
This is probably the only place to see his full body of work, and there likely is a ton of exclusive content here too (he doesn't differentiate them if that's the case), but there is the possibility that this won't be new material for you.
Minor Negatives:
The design is a little on the plain side. It's basically just a white background with black text and lots of tables. For the most part, the site looks clean and there are a few good browse options, it just looks dated.
Can only download one image set ZIP at a time.
Users Must Enter WMV Format Extension For Downloads.
Bottom Line
Quality teens in a variety of inconsistent quality content.
Oddly enough, the one recurring theme here at Paul Markham Teens appears to be inconsistency. Inconsistency in the quality of content, the download options available for the content, and possibly even the true "new" updates are coming in inconsistently. With that said, there's still a lot to enjoy about Paul Markham teens. I love the amount of variety in the sets and the type of shoots that are involved, and when the quality is good, I love that too! Unfortunately though, I was all too put off by the inability to use download managers on his site. More specifically, it's the fact that you are able to use a download manager, you'll just be punished by having your user/pw & IP banned from the site. In the end that's what left the most sour taste in my mouth that even the sweet ass, cute young girls couldn't change my mind.
