Premium membership - Recurring cost & download limit ?

Silly-Sausage

If i pay for the current offer of $122 for a 12 month premium sub, what will i be charged for the recurring membership ?

Does it renew at $122 or at full price ?

Also can anybody tell me the current monthly download limits.

Thanks

Silly-Sausage It should renew at the same price but you should get final confirmation about the price for the second year when you are asked to enter your payment information, i.e. when you are 'signing' the contract. Keep in mind that you can always decide to cancel the annual before the year is over and then get a new subscription, e.g. if the conditions are better in a year than they are now.

Math

30 downloads per 144 hours
144 hours = 6 days
30 days in a month, so 30 / 6 = 5
5 x 30 = 150 films

At most you can download about half of this. The storage costs are higher than the price of a semi-regular subscription, given that many of the films are 100 gigabytes.

Edit: Too much byting!

PieInSky many of the films are 100 terabytes.

What? You'd be hard-pressed to find a film that is 100 gb, let alone 100 terabytes.

Just as a suggestion; charge a one time only entry fee ($15-$30). This way people are more likely to stay longer since they would have to pay the entry fee again if they leave and then later rejoin. (As a lifetime member I don’t like download limits, so this might be a better way to deal with short time hoarders) 😉

PieInSky

Some folks have to travel for work. It doesn't make sense to keep a subscription active if you are away for more than a month. If cost is a problem, just reduce the download limit. Better still, force users to download only one file at once, like POVR. That's why POVR can offer unlimited downloads, because users with fast connections cannot use macros to scrape the site.

SchnuppiLilac & @PieInSky Cheers guys, thanks for that info.

I''m sorry but i have another question, are all the studios available under Premium as when i subbed a while back there used to be a 'Blue Diamond' next to the studios that were included but this seemed to have gone.

Any studios not included ?

SchnuppiLilac

Silly-Sausage As far as I am aware, the almost 300 studios that you can see when not logged in are the same that you will get with premium. I think you don't have any studios in the list of creators for which it will turn out that there are only trailers. However, some studios might only have a small number of full videos on SLR as teasers. For example, you will get 5 full videos from CzechVR but not the full catalogue. You can find an overview of the number of scenes per studio here: https://www.sexlikereal.com/studios

And if you were a member a while back, you might notice that some individual studios are not on this list anymore. I think the last big player that has left SLR to go exclusive was VRBangers/VRConk approx. a year ago.

Silly-Sausage

SchnuppiLilac Thanks again. That's good news that all studios are now available.

Might have to treat myself to a yearly sub.

Cheers

Is there a way to search by file size? Or did you just discover them by trial and error? You somehow had a list of them ready to go somehow!

Hairsational

Hurricane_Hilary Search by tag "AlexNash". He's the only person who is producing videos of that length/size regularly.

I've been a member for more than a year (on and off, based on films I want to see!). These were easy to recall since I had to download the first one twice due to file errors, I wanted to download the second and third but ran out of hard drive space, and I considered downloading the fourth in full resolution but ended up downloading a smaller version, and ultimately deleting the file.

Dreamteam is worth preserving in its full resolution.

Silly-Sausage

Mateo_Drake Hi i got all the answers i needed thanks

SchnuppiLilac

PieInSky Not sure why you can only download one file at a time from POVR, this is not normal behaviour. Moreover, I don't think it's true that their downloads are unlimited. No one really seems to know what the exact limits are, but I think it's someting like 30 per day and after that you can still download but will be throttled.

POVR does not limit concurrent downloads, they do limit speeds to about 2MB/s per download and 10MB/s total after a user hits a daily/24hr limit that's not made public. The speed limit is lifted after roughly 24 hours.
