(recurring)X Rated Classics is up for review today, and this site features some pretty standard hardcore action from years past. All of the clips here seem to be from 1990 and before (I'm mostly guessing on the dates, of course), when porn was in its heyday. You can see everything from lesbian to hardcore to threesomes and groups, though I don't know that they'll ever get quite as wild as what we see today. $30 a month gets you in the door, which I guess isn't bad, but I wouldn't have minded seeing that number a little lower.
Granted, this site is basically based on DVDs (or. rather, VHS as they were called previously), so you expect decent numbers. However, it's still no less impressive that they offer over 1,000 scenes up currently. That number seems to be growing, as well, so I assume things will only get better in time, much like the porn here.
We actually get requests quite often from people looking for sites like this. The old-school porn is definitely still in the memory banks of quite a few people out there, so there should be a good set of the porn population that likes this stuff. It may not live up to the craziness that we're used to these days, but nothing is more fun than seeing some old favorites to bring back the memories.
Updates come pretty regularly it seems. I don't think there's a set schedule, as sometimes you wait two days, and other times you wait a week, but new stuff is put up often enough. Each update could bring one new scene, or several.
Of course, not only is this basically a DVD site, as mentioned, it's one with older porn. This material is definitely not exclusive to anybody at this point, and it would be pretty easy to find other similar sites that offer the same exact scenes probably.
The whole navigation setup here just isn't what I was expecting. They basically have their scenes listed like any other paysite would, but there's not nearly enough organization. First, these all come from pretty famous movies, I presume, so why not offer some way to browse by those movies? Second, it's just a large site, so they could also get into the whole search or categorization thing if they wanted, in case people were looking for something new.
Again, this one kind of goes with the territory I guess. These scenes were all filmed decades ago, so the quality was just a little different back then. They didn't expect these to end up on something called the internet someday, so they weren't worried about that kind of stuff. They don't look bad, but they definitely don't live up to anything you're used to seeing that was shot more recently.
For some reason, they don't offer any streaming or Flash videos, which may annoy some.
On top of that, for video downloads, only WMV is offered. They do have clips and full scenes at least, but the video options are pretty weak overall.
There are some fun scenes at X Rated Classics, but on a site like this, all your competitors probably have access to the same fun scenes. So you need to set yourself apart more with features, updates, size, etc., and I don't know if that really happens here. The site is pretty basic overall, and could use a lot more features. Better navigation, more video options, and consistent updates would be a great start. Like I said, it's not a bad site really, but I think they could do so much better than what they offer here currently.
