The latest remastered video at Fresh Men is the solo scene of Billy Montague. He had a solo released by Belami Online in 2014.
The remastered video had a comment about the current state of updates at Fresh Men and Belami Online. Do you agree with him?
Paying for two sites and getting new content only once a week (if that) isn’t a good value. BelAmi is known to hold onto scenes until long after the featured model is dead, but upcycling old material is unnecessary and frustrating for subscribers. Old scenes belong in a back catalog for members to easily locate and enjoy, and constantly presenting them as “new” shows the studio isn’t producing scenes and is probably in decline.
I cannot blame the member for allowing his subscription to lapse. His money is better spent elsewhere.
I am not sure, but I think they are asking for the full price for streaming only. Even Corbin Fisher cut the cost for streaming only.
That’s an exaggeration. Freshmen publishes 2-3 new scenes each week and Bel Ami publishes 3-4 previously-unpublished scenes each week (granted, these may have been filmed years previously).
Most sites have cut back on the frequency of updates in past few years; I think BA & Freshmen still fall in the top tier. And at least they’re open about their release of re-mastered content.
But if the OP isn’t satisfied with that, he’s right to stop subscribing.
I think it’s okay that they publish many old scenes that haven’t yet made it online for streaming/download and only exist on DVD or physical copies. These scenes are good; they’re classics, and they show the beginnings of many “stars” who still film for BA today, or stars who were there in the past. Besides, both sites publish new scenes every week! Someone please tell me which site consistently publishes several new scenes every week? Yes, probably MEN! But almost every one of their scenes is garbage because they’re poorly filmed, offensive, or comedic, or so sexually boring and unconvincing that we don’t even want to watch them! Or they publish vagina scenes on their GAY porn site against we will! Like CF does every week!
And that’s much better than just publishing GAY porn, whether new or old classics?
Yeah, exactly…
A lot of studios have cut back in the last 5 years, but off the top of my head – Cocky Boys, Corbin Fisher, Wm Higgins, Helix & Boyfun are releasing 2 or more new scenes each week.
All I know is I need to renew my membership with Bel Ami & Fresh Men very soon cause their films are still on fire!
