"Exclusive bondage pics & vids of where the emphasis is on 'forced orgasms'."
Not surprisingly this site titled The Bondage Channel is all about...bondage! It's a personal collection of bondage shoots from David Mack. Apparently he's operating in Florida and enjoys working with bdsm amateurs and pros. I mention this because the site definitely has a personal feel to it as opposed to a corporate one so it's interesting to know what the webmaster's philosophy is.

The Goods:

- Well Done Exclusive Bondage Action. This is the true value of the site. The chicks are put through a variety of entertaining bondage shoots and it's all original. Sometimes its one girl and other times there's a couple of girls getting tied up and whipped. Actually "forced orgasms" is one of their main themes so lots of toy and pussy play is incorporated into the action.

- Balanced Picture & Video Content. The Bondage Channel does its content in "shoots" more than separate picture and video sections. Basically each shoot has videos along with accompanying pics. About the only time this isn't true is a small number where the pics are actually screen-caps from the videos. Overall the quantity of content is strong with a nice mixture of videos and picture galleries.

- Helpful Model Index Page. I found the model index to be the easiest way to navigate the site. It links through to each girl's appearances and gives a little bit of biographical info. More than the girl’s pages it’s in the written shoot summaries where interesting background info about the action can be found.

The Bads:

- Older Vids are Real Player Only. It appears that in mid-late 2005 they started including both WMV and Real player formats for the movies. The material prior to that is in Real Player only which is a format that I don't care for.

- Old Pics are Small. The newer photos are large and look very nice. Similar to the video formatting issue, the older pictures see a drop off in content from what's been added recently. The good thing, of course, is that they have stepped up the content quality and not just stuck with their old sizing.

- Navigation is Somewhat Choppy. Outside of the model index I found the design and layout to be only average. One specific difficulty I had was logging in to view the member's content. It took me a minute to figure out that there isn't a member’s link but it's necessary to try and view a content set in order to get a login prompt.

Conclusion:

Bondage fans should enjoy The Bondage Channel's collection of exclusive and fun shoots. The emphasis on forced orgasms is a different twist than I've seen before from a fetish site of this kind. Aside from the few kinks in the design and video formatting they have accomplished their goal of offering up an interesting collection of bondage-focused content.

1st Follow-Up Review Review: 07-13-07

The Bondage Channel continues to update with a new shoot every 2-4 days so they continue to build up their exclusive collection of pics and vids. They've also added a lengthy "History" page describing the philosophy of the site and David Mack. The "Goods" and "Bads" points made in my initial review still apply to what the member's area has to offer. The exclusive and entertaining shoots are the site's biggest asset whereas video quality is an area that's lacking.

Score increased from 79.0 to 80.0.
