These straight guys show promise - here's to hoping they'll keep their site on the straight and narrow.

Please note - We found this site to be either to small or not worth reviewing in detail. There are currently no plans to review this site in full.
When it comes to mega-sites, Straight Guys Are Broke is quite the anomaly; for starters, it actually has the exclusive content its join page advertises. Straight Guys' 38 videos (five of which are available as HD-quality downloads) are all bright, new creations that have obviously been shot solely for the site. Refreshingly, the dudes in the videos actually look straight; when it comes to the (quite popular) straight guy niche, many sites underestimate the intelligence of their members by passing off camp twinks as "straight" fellas.
The quality of the site's ample bonus content doesn't hold a torch to its original material, though; that, coupled with their regrettable lack of an update schedule, means I can't fully get behind these fiscally fragile flip-floppers until they take a stand and up their game.
Things we liked:
- All videos downloadable with no DRM
- All image galleries are professionally shot
- Some HD quality videos available
- Original content is actually exclusive to site
- Over 150 bonus feeds relevant to niche
Things we didn't like:
- No set update schedule
- Quality of bonus content is often questionable

My rating:
You can tell its new, but i loved the content. Hated the bonus crap, but I did enjoy the exclusive videos.
Not sure what DRM is, but I enjoyed the download experience, non of that having to enter my bloody username & password.
Not sure whether to stick around or not, as I couldn't find anything about when the new stuff is coming out.
