For subscription website videos over 10 min do you prefer streaming or having to download the file?

For subscription website members on here if there is a video/movie on a site over 10 minutes in length do your prefer to be able to instantly stream it or wait for it to download on to your computer?
 
I am surprised there are still some subscription sites who do not offer instant streaming. We are in 2016 not 2006 so the technology to do so is definitely available.
 
I click 'download' and move on. I don't enjoy it until later, if that.


I don't need to surf porn anymore; I've enough to last several lifetimes.


I focus on specific fetishes, e.g., filipinas right now. It keeps things manageable.

In the time it takes to download a file (for example 20 minutes) one could easily stream/skip through 20+ videos.
With the flood of content that is out there, time is crucial.
 
Perhaps the mindset of some sites is streaming would making viewing all of the content on their sites easier and faster.
Downloading takes more time so you are less likely to view everything quickly and then cancel your membership and move on to something else.

I stream, but I also like to download really good HD scenes.

Have you seen the stuff they are putting out on that new site Vixen.com yet? Quality shit. Its really REALLY good porn. Got myself a subscription and never regretted it. Especially for that price.
 
I download, mainly because I have slow internet so stream quality may have to be lowered to get the video running smoothly.
 
I prefer to download good quality HD scenes to watch and enjoy later.

I too got myself a subscription to this site and would recommend checking it out. Good quality porn at a great price.

Yes, I was wondering when someone was going to bring that site up. They have been pretty good so far, but the muted coloring on the vids is a bit odd to me, though I know that is the "style" with many of these "erotic" sites. I love that they are going balls deep with 4K, which is the only way a site gets my money these days.

Muted as in lots of white?

Muted as in the coloring is very subdued/filtered and that is a result of poor post-work or bad on-set camera work. In order to jump to 4K, the industry mostly went with digital cinema cameras, which have a more complicated work-flow than the HDCAM/DV stuff that the industry had been using for years. In order to properly use the digital cinema gear, you have to have an understanding of coloring and grading, which most adult content folks have no clue about, because it was never part of the game back in the day. It's like going from a Ford Taurus to a Porsche racing car. You can drive it, but if you try to do anything cool with it, you'll be making mistakes because you haven't been trained on how to handle it. I don't know how familiar you are with Digital Playground, but when they went to the RED digital cinema cameras for all of their features several years back, they had the same problem because Robby D. and other folks didn't quite know how to deal with the footage, so a lot of the stuff came out looking muted or washed out or just funny looking in general. I'd really have to pull up some photos and stuff about digital cinema workflows to show you exactly what I mean, but it's been a constant problem with the 4K digital cinema cameras. Some porn sites don't use those and stick with the 4K professional camcorders, which have the same resolution, but are easier to deal with than the digital cinema cameras.
