Alongside the ballsy product review, I also had the chance to review and experience Good Vibes’ pay-per-minute video on demand.
First, Good Vibes gets thumbs up for having porn on demand. I like my porn online. Moreover, I don’t like to shell out $40+ for the porn I like–I know, I should be supporting women-directed, queer, diverse, independent porn. But I can’t afford that, not when I cringe at spending more than $5 for a lunch.
So. Back to my point. On demand=good. Having easy access to the porn is plus points in my book, but I had a few problems (technical and otherwise) with Good Vibes’ VOD.
Now, Good Vibes has a great selection of porn. As soon as I got my 200 minutes credited to my account, I was raring to check out all the porn I had set my eyes on. The only problem? Not all the titles listed online are available for VOD.
The Crash Pad? No.
Superfreak? Nope.
Any of the volumes in the Crash Pad Series?! Oh, wait, lemme see…that’s a negatory.
I hope you like Belladonna. Like, really really like Belladonna. Not that I have anything against that, but I wanted to see something from the Pink & White crew.
I did manage to catch Madison Young’s latest, Lesbian Life: Real Sex in San Francisco. I skipped to the good bits, enjoyed what I saw (hot!), but I didn’t get to finish it. No–I know what you’re thinking and that wasn’t that reason. This brings me to my next point.
Maybe it was something on my end, but my computer and the VOD did not seem compatible at all. I used the updated Windows Media player, but after about 2-5 minutes of cunthappy times, the video would go all schizo: green tint all over and an upside-down image. Try as I might to make out naughty bits in the porn, it was not worth the effort. Plus, green pussy? Not a turn on.
It’s a shame, really. At 10 cents/minute (if you buy 200 minutes), it’s a steal and very good option for people like me, who like to watch porn instantly on their computer, who prefer not to buy a full porn, and who only watch minutes at a time anyway. I hope that more titles will be made available to VOD soon, otherwise it’s back to picking through questionables over at pornhub for me.
