I was a member of this site several years ago, and I had
high hopes it may have improved significantly. Unfortunately
it has stayed quite static, only changing the navigation
interface.
The movies are good content, with a reasonable number
of them, but relatively medium/low quality compared to today's
standards, and certainly showing their age, with many having
been traded on the newsgroups for a long time.
Most movies had previews, and are collected together
by series. Canine and Equine feature in roughly equal abundance,
with some eel, snake etc. Just a few links were broken on
some of the movies, but this was a small exception.
Pictures are OK, but not really much more than grabs
of the content on the videos.
All the 'AP' series are there, with Movie sizes generally
in the region of 3 to 4 Mb, with an occassional one that
is larger.
One thing to watch if you do signup - when you login, it
gives you the members zone in a new pop-up window, leaving
the home page open - this is OK except the home page has
a lot of active graphics which are then sitting there eating
up your bandwidth - so remember to go back and shut it down.
Navigation is OK, but can become confusing at times
- with some links to other sites that have little more to
add than the original site.
Speed of access is good, I experienced no problems getting
a fast download on ADSL.
Summary - OK if you need to collect the AP series
and you don't want to wait around for them to cycle onto
the newsgroups again, but probably on the expensive side,
unless you get in on a special promotion.
Ian says:
Nothing much to add to Tralk's review, just to mention that
all new members get a free DVD delivered at no costs and
all members have also access to the Bestialitylife.com Life
Show every second Friday. Just the Lifeshow, not the other
content from this site!
