  • Upcoming price and download limit change

In other words the Black Friday sale isn't even as good as the upcoming price change. I find it strange that the non-recurring option says Black Friday Sale above it and the price is the normal non sale price. Most companies have their cheapest pricing of the year for Black Friday sales.

I do like the idea of cheaper options, however more limits is not so cool. Maybe you could offer more plans and just keep the older options available too at the more expensive pricing. That way we could choose to be more limited to save money if we want. I could see this as a better option because new users would most likely prefer less limits and older users would mostly not even notice the new limits unless their collections are lost for some reason.

I'll be the guy. I paid full price for LT awhile back (2+ years), so if the only benefit is that I can download 20% more vids (so 30 instead of 25?) then I don't really care about that. Give me more monthly AI scripts instead so the difference in cost amortizes eventually 😉

Worst doublevr can say is no

Came back here looking for a reason to resub because of the Blake promo, but don't see any videos that would make even a 1 month sub worthwhile, especially after seeing this post.

I'm a playstation user so I have no choice but to download. Downloading at 50KB/s is a terrible experience. It's like I'm back in 2005. Other sites are faster.. and allow more downloads. They also don't say I'm "misusing" the service they sold to me, or call me a data hoarder.

In the past I've had multiple downloads fail here, where it would show it finished but the file was only a few KB. This still took up all my allocated download slots. Asked support to investigate, or for a download slot restoration perhaps (as my internet was fine, yet i couldn't download videos here for over a week - other sites worked fine!) but was flatly ignored. Big waste of my time and money.

I used to come to this forum as well, thinking it was THE place to be for VR porn related discussion. I wanted to help direct VR porn to higher levels, but I quickly realised the casting or scenario suggestions I shared were only read by fellow members, didn't feel like anyone with influence were reading or acting on them.

The Blake promo is an amazing idea, and SLR has done other amazing stuff as well, but at the moment the negatives outweigh the positives for me.

    There are still huge parts of US that have dogshit internet with data caps. Mine ranges anywhere between 14-20Mbps.

    Downloading is the only way for some people to actually watch a whole scene at full quality and not have pauses every few seconds.

      Does the download limit onyl count if you donwload the Video to your PC or does it also limit the Streaming Volume?

      doublevr -50% downloads limit for monthly plan.

      to limit more downloads that are extremely limited already if the most stupid fucking idea ... imho
      so if you do it - just dont count me as member that will give you any money anymore !

          You would be better off bringing in daily limits of 5 or 10 downloads, not everybody wants to stream stuff, I mean I have full fibre but I'd prefer the original source file for the best quality on my Quest 3. There's a lot of people who can't even stream at a decent bit rate or quality due to still being stuck with copper connections and bandwidth limits and in the UK at least that's not going to change for another couple of years. VR/MR is still a niche product and these videos are even more niche due to said expense of the hardware and file sizes involved vs flat adult content. We also live in the environment where the general western world consumer does not have much monthly disposable income. I imagine a lot of first time subs come here to sample various studios output so if you make good first offer on signup they are more likely to stay subscribed than unsub after a month.

          Personally i have awesome internet speeds but streaming above 4k is an issue on my headset, so i preview on headset and download the files i want to watch full resolution without issues.

          Streaming is a problem even with good internet for me, downloads are full speed and without the framerate issue that DeoVR has.

          At the end of the day everybody has to find what works best for them, but IMO downloading is the best resolution as not everybody has perfect internet speeeds to support 7/8k resolution, but that will come. just don't punish people who aren't there yet.

            I’m no boffin 🙂, but that sounds like an internal wi-fi issue. If you’ve got a decent router and on 5Ghz band you should have no trouble streaming maximum resolution stuff.

            Unless you’re still using a Go or something 🤷‍♂️

                doublevr Here is my personal concern around this. I am currently on a monthly subscription. I can live with the current download limits, it would only be an issue if I had a hard drive crash and needed to replace everything.

                Let's say new lower limits come in for the lifetime subscription. If I changed from my existing monthly subscription to a new lifetime subscription after the change, would my download limits be reduced?

                Sometimes I look at the lifetime deal and consider making the change, but I wouldn't consider it if it meant my existing download limit was reduced. It would be really nice if existing customers kept their current limits when changing from one subscription type to another.

                Appreciate this might add complexity to the idea, but it prevents existing customers from being fearful of losing what they have. And since this seems to be focused around new users, it shouldn't make much difference in download traffic impact for SLR.

                    Ior1yagami If I changed from my existing monthly subscription to a new lifetime subscription after the change, would my download limits be reduced?

                    Yes, that's what he said. The download limit for new lifetime members would be 15% less than the current limit.

                      Yeah it's weird, i can stream 8k over wifi from my DNLA server without issues on my quest 2 but have issues streaming for some reason, but i'm fine with it 🙂

                        Go 20 TB at least. Beat the inflation!

                        @doublevr, maybe you should consider regional subscriptions? Price coding for particular locations might help you find that sweet spot, provided you can discourage abuse by forcing the user to access SLR only through the country they register from (block proxies).

                            [deleted] If VPNs were banned I would cancel my subscription immediately without a second thought, I won't be the only one. Let's not plant horrendous seeds like that please lol

                              By the end of the day we all want a fair model in place everyone would be happy about.
                              Every exploitation has a price someone has to pay. Often times good users got affected because of some few bad assess.
