I always preface reviews on sites like Personal Clips with the fact that I'm not a huge fan of these things. It's a community-based site with users uploading the content, in hopes to get a huge collection of true amateur porn. My biggest beef is that there are some huge sites out there that are relatively cheap, whereas Personal Clips is $30 a month. Another big hurdle is the quality which is always well below average, and then of course the relative lack of consistency across the board with everything. Since you have the basics now, let's get into what I do and don't like here.
The goods:
- Lots of content up. The 6,000+ pictures don't impress me a ton unfortunately, but the 2,600 video clips should be pretty sweet. You have to get past the fact that most galleries are small, and most videos are short, but you should get a large variety here at least.
- Updates come daily. It looks like around two galleries and three video clips are usually added daily, which is what helps the site grow so much. Of course it varies from one day to the next, but those are pretty reliable numbers.
The bads:
- Quality is well below average. It's mostly the nature of the beast here as a lot of people are using crappy digital cameras, or webcams to post their content. Plus, just because a few people know what they're doing doesn't bring the site up as a whole.
- Most galleries/vids quite small. On the flip side, some of the contributors have posted a lot, but many of them do not. You're stuck with the couple of photos, or minute-long sex scenes. Again, it's not a hard and fast rule, but in general the scenes here are a lot shorter than most porn scenes you're used to.
- Nothing really sets this one apart from the rest. Sure they have a lot of content and update daily, but so do the other user-submitted sites out there that I'm aware of. The $30 monthly price tag is what sticks out to me unfortunately.
Conclusion:
You've already read my disagreements with these sites, so I won't re-hash them here. If you're into this content, I'd say Personal Clips is as good as most of the other sites out there for what they offer. There's a lot of content in a wide variety of categories. The price is a bit high in my opinion, but once you get past that at least they deliver on what they promise once a member.

Review: 05-22-08 |
With more content and a cheaper price, I think we're off to a good start for this followup. They've given our readers a special discount to $20 a month instead of the usual $30 a month, which is cool to see. Somehow they're quickly approaching 10,000 video clips as well, which is 3-4x bigger than at our last visit. Updates continue to come daily, which I'm sure has helped bring those numbers up. A few other small additions might have been put up, such as a search box and dated content, but the two main things above are the biggest help for me.
Score increased from 75.0 to 77.0.
