Passion-HD i'm sure is making lots of money, it's nowhere near the quality of X-Art BUT the scenes are hotter than X-Art - because it's shot by people who know how to shoot hardcore sex.

As much as I admire X-Art's content I've watched a bunch of their scenes and it does nothing for me as jerkoff material. Hardcore should be raw - whether it's passionate or nasty and rough. Pierre Woodman is my porn hero. His casting videos in hotel rooms are real life, real sex. I also like Manuel Ferrara's Raw series - just him and a porn chick in a hotel room or her own home. Nobody else in the room, that's how you get real sex.
We have similar taste as I really don't like the hardcore stuff on X-Art either. The pics below are better at capturing the essence of the brand.

Also, maybe Babes is why it seems they're repositioning Twistys as a lesbian porn site, something I alluded to here in this post. Never heard back from Ramrod.

Interesting business model.

- Spend A Lot Of Money To Acquire A Highly Successful Site Which Has Been Branded As 'The Ultimate Babe Site' For 10+ Years.
- Spend A Lot Of Money To Acquire Babes.Com
- Rebrand The Ultimate Babe Site As A Lesbian Porn Site. Piss Away A Lot Of Brand Equity In The Process.
- Spend A Lot Of Money On The Production Of Babes.com In The Hopes Of Capturing A Large Piece Of The X-Art Market Share
- ?????

Seems like they're getting a bit sloppy, no?

Will be interesting to see what happens. It appears as if Babes.com will likely take more business away from Twistys or Digital Playground than it will X-Art or SexArt. We shall see.
