For The Best Porn users only, $15 bucks per month and you can have access to over 300+ sites and 3,500+ video downloads in over 11,000+ GB of content. Welcome to Porn Access where they offer unlimited access and unlimited downloads, as well as hundreds of content zones (sites) and bonus zones, etc. They "guarantee" DVD quality movies in full length feature scenes, easy browsing and more. Members can expect daily updates and convenient browsing features to make navigating the site a pleasurable experience. If you have a taste for a wide variety of niches and can't get enough video content to add to your computer porn library, then this just might be the site for you.
Just like the tour, the member's area allows you to browse all sites where you can find a site by category, find a site by actor, or even by studio. They are listed in alphabetical order by niche category, or you can simply search the network to find more specifically what you’re looking for. As you can see from the site, Porn Access offers most of the mainstream niche categories like: amateurs, anal, Asian, blowjobs, busty, gay, hardcore, lesbians, mature, pornstars, teens, and of course, what would any site be without them trannies. Although not the largest of AVS's out there, offering only 300+ sites as of yet, Porn Access does focus on and cover a realm of the AVS world that others have yet to cover, videos. With a fresh and simple site design, members should have no problems finding sites to access. About 3 new sites are added every week, with at least 3 new videos being added daily, so you can expect to see this growing archive continue to get even larger. You can browse through all the categories of sites, or you can search through the newest sites, most popular sites, actors, studios and more. Find one you like, bookmark it and you'll find that it'll easily be accessible in the future under your bookmarks page, which is unfortunately kept in your browser "favorites" section rather than in the main member's area--I did not so much like this, I would prefer to be able to access my "favorites" from a folder on the main members area page. In any case, though, I have a feeling that members will almost never be at a loss for new material or where to find it.
Members also have the option to rate each zone 1-5, which then helps sort the most popular sites list; this is where I started. A few of the sites in this list are sites like: joggs, Grandma Movies, MovieSensation, Big Busty Hardcore Movies, My Lesbian Story and more. There are 100 top rated sites in total. So what does a top rated site look like? Well, they look pretty nice, actually. Some of them update every day with new full length movies, breaking them down into parts and the options for connection speeds are there, offering 3 different choices for each clip. Some of them aren't always the simplest sites to browse, but I think you'll find that there's not too big of a mixture of complexities even though you are dealing with so many sites in the first place. Overall, though, the options for viewing each video is standardized from what I could tell and offers 2 different downloadable file sizes as well as a streaming option (540k). Your largest file size option plays as high as 1000k+ and offers great quality picture and sound, easily viewable full-screen quality. I was highly impressed by the quality of the videos here and the options in which to view them even though your only choice for file type is Windows Media, which is probably the most universal one any way. The only potential problem that I can see members having is for those of you who are on a dial-up connection. In that case, it might take some waiting time in order to watch these videos as most are anywhere from 12-20 minutes in length.
Well we know the quality of video is consistently good throughout the sites, so how's the actual content? From what I've seen, it is damn good! Really though, how can you go wrong when it comes to high quality videos? If it's made into a video it's because it's hardcore and it's good and that's exactly what we have here. If you have a liking for real Asian hardcore videos, foreign language and all, you'll find plenty here as well as great hardcore anal, amateurs, blowjobs, lesbians, teens and more. There really is a good mix of hardcore pleasures to be found here no matter what your favorite niche is. The videos are all up to date and, for the most part, well categorized. Of all the different niche specific categories, the largest amount of sites is in the hardcore category which houses over 75+ sites, followed by teens with 43+ and the fetish category with 30+ sites. The smallest category of sites is the classic/vintage niche (3+) and most niches have anywhere from 7-24+ sites to choose from. The actor list will be especially helpful for those of you who know specifically who you're looking to see and the search by studio option is just as good if you have a favorite production company of videos that you like to see. You'll find many well known studio companies here like: Red Light District, Barely Legal, Zero Tolerance, Fallen Angel and more.
Overall, I think Porn Access has a good chunk of sites on hand and browsing through them was a real pleasure. The quality was good, though the quantity of content compared to other AVS's is going to suffer slightly due to the fact that this is one of your newer AVS's. There are a few positives to that as well, including a better range of quality sites and better site navigation, of course. Seeing as this is a video AVS, one that allows members complete unrestricted access to downloading all of the content ones heart could desire, it is easy to say that one who is considering joining should also be connected to the Internet using a broadband connection. Otherwise you're just wasting your time here! One last thing to remember about the content here is that nothing is exclusive; this is all purchased/licensed content/DVD's from other 3rd party sources. In addition to the 300+ sites, Porn Access also gives members access to a number of extra sites (7+) encompassing many different niches, as well as access to live feeds and bonus images/videos. If you're one who can't get enough video downloads to fill up that hard drive of yours, Porn Access is a worthwhile AVS to become a member of. Considering our users get access to all this for $15 bucks per month, that's essentially a steal for so many quality downloads from a variety of niche specific categories. My only main reservations with Porn Access was the fact that it has almost half as much content as other similar AVS's and doesn't update with new sites quite as often, although, they do offer reasonable download options along with great high quality ones for each video and the main members area is great for searching for those specific little pleasures we all love so much.

Wow! It feels like such a long time since we've looked at any AVS's let alone done a follow up on one. In the last 11 months or so Porn Access has been steadily growing it's archive of hosted sites and video content with there now being over 595+ sites and about 4,500+ videos. They've done some re-designing of the members area as well but I am still equally as impressed with the amount of browsing features and site design overall. And although I can't quite remember what all your download options were for the sites last time around, I went to take a look since I noted download options being somewhat limited as a con last time, and while they don't offer as many choices for media file type, you are at least offered full-length downloads or streams in high and low quality. And at a low $25 bucks per month (for our users), Porn Access is quality and that, at least, is worth something!
Score increased from 86.4 to 88.0.

It's been a while since we've been inside the Porn Access member's area, but it's definitely a name that's not easy to forget. And now with more than 1,300+ sites included with membership there's really no question as to why. That's more than 10,500+ videos in more than 30+ different niches, and newest video additions can be found streaming as high as 2000k, although I thought the quality looked too washed out at times. It doesn't look like they've added any new search or user features in the main member's area, and that's a shame, but the discounted price tag of only $14.95 per month still stands and that's one hell of a deal for such a variety of video content.
Score decreased from 88.0 to 87.0.
