VOD (Video On Demands) seems to be a very popular format to show porn flicks. More and more porn supplier sites are now offering a VOD alternative (and sometimes at almost the same price as the DVD!).
However, they are missing something really important that I find quite odd. Apart from the usually dire low quality stream they offer they never offer the backstage material or bonus scenes. In fact, most clip sites like 21st Sextury or Perfect Gonzo rarely add a lot of the backstage material although there is a massive demand for this.
When I edited and ran the Victoria Swinger site we used to put on a ton of backstage stuff and the download figures showed that they were as popular as the main scenes.
So, why do VOD sites fail to do this and does anyone know of any sites other than www.strictlybroadband.com that actually shows the backstage footage from DVD's.
VOD is still poor to be fair. On many sites you can buy the DVD for 10 Euro or so, whereas the VOD stream costs 7-8 Euro. With the DVD you get a full movie, with backstage and photos rendered at 8mbps (i.e. good quality). With VOD you typically get a 1mb stream that is poor quality, has no backstage or photoshoots and is protected content that you have to keep renewing licenses.
Its time that a VOD site appeared offering HQ downloads, with no protection and all the backstage (okay, the same price as the DVD would be acceptable). Ztod does something similar for all their scenes, but it needs to happen more.
AEBN and Hotstream who seem to provide the content to most VOD sites should either upgrade or quit. Their technology is so old that its unreal.
So, anyone know of any good quality VOD sites that offer backstage stuff.
