Today we're revisiting Black Stud Society. If you like muscled ebony guys, the men on this tour are definitely eye catchers. They're masculine, cocky and just fucking hot. There are some gorgeous black men on the tour, although a couple of the guys are latin or blatino. Still, most are ebony hunks and amateurs, so not to worry. The tour doesn't mention an update schedule, but it does tell us that the site is updated regularly. Want to know more? Then join me for a look at what's new at Black Stud Society!
The member home page is pretty basic - links to images, videos and pay per view at the top of the page are followed by the latest update, links to the site sections, each with the 5 most recent updates for the section. There's also a pay per view offer and a link to a bonus site. There are no dates anywhere, and the latest update isn't actually linked. The site currently offers 130 videos, which is 89 more than there were 27 months ago, and there are 167 pic sets, which is only 20 more than on our last visit.
The videos are offered in both streaming Flash and downloadable MP4s. The Flash videos play in an embedded player, and are shown at either 640x480 or 720x480 at fairly low-average quality. For those with handheld portable devices, the MP4s are shown at from 176x144 at 277k to 320x240 at around 400k, and both are average quality or better, although the smaller ones are too small to make everything out. The videos are full scenes and DRM-free.
The photo sets each feature black men showing off their bodies and their huge assets. Most of the pic sets are exclusive, although some are shared with other sites owned by the same company, and I did find a single pic set that was non exclusive. The pics pretty good quality although shown at around 333x500, they could be larger. Each set can be browsed in a thumbnailed gallery and is also offered as a slideshow. Some of the guys also have a video link, which leads to a preview video for pay per view videos.
The men of Black Stud Society are everything the tour indicates. There are plenty of hot black studs, blatino guys and some hardcore and interracial action. And let me tell you, some of the models here are very well-hung. From guys in t-shirts to black leathermen, massive bodybuilders and mature dark-skinned hunks, I liked the variety and the quality of the men here.
In addition to the Black Stud Society pics and videos, full members get access to a section called "Magnum's Tapes" featuring 8 videos of one of the models. There's also a bonus site called Finest VOD where members can watch a collection of videos featuring muscle men, ltin guys, pornstars and big dick men.
I did run into a couple issues on this site in addition to those already mentioned. One is that I couldn't find a mention of rebilling prices or policies on the join page, and had to find them on the terms in the fine print. It was also a bit frustrating to find so many upsell links to pay per view.
The Black Stud Society men are everything the tour promised - hot, muscular and most are black. The action here includes plenty of stripping and jacking off, plus some hardcore and interracial black-on-white action. While there's no way to know when the site updates, there have been 89 vids added in 27 months, which averages to a video being added a bit more often than every two weeks. The Flash vids could be better quality, and the downloadable versions could be bigger. Still, the bottom line is that the men are hot enough that Black Stud Society is worth checking out.
Things we liked:
- Hot black hunks
- Videos are downloadable
- No DRM used
Things we didn't like:
- Video quality is low
- Downloadable video sizes range from small to tiny
- No rebilling membership info on join page
- No way to know how often/when site updates
