Homoactive Hardcore — Any Way You Like It

In the gay adult entertainment industry, a handful of competitors have risen to the challenge and are quickly innovating services that rival those of the mainstream media world.

     As web technologies continue to improve, consumers want their favorite web sites to keep pace. In just a few years, the video on demand market has grown considerably, constantly evolving along the way. The sites that have been able to stay abreast of these changes are the ones that have been most successful. In the world of mainstream media, Netflix and iTunes have arisen as major players. In the gay adult entertainment industry, a handful of competitors have risen to the challenge and are quickly innovating services that rival those of the mainstream media world. Whether mainstream or adult, the top DVD rental and video-on-demand services share certain characteristics in common. They are all very attuned to the needs of their customers and they all offer a wide variety of titles. Ever since they first launched, Homoactive has been on our consumer radar and has remained one of our favorite places online to buy DVDs and to stream gay adult media.
     There are dozens of sites now offering video-on-demand (VOD) services that target gay porn consumers, and even more online retail sites. All sites are not created equal, however, and both Homoactive (the store) and Homoactive TV (the VOD site) offer an ideal mix of new releases and older titles, flexible payment options, intuitive user interfaces, and stellar customer service. Homoactive also distinguishes itself from most other sites with a unique attentiveness to individual customers and their needs. One customer at a time, they’ve built up a large and loyal user base that is constantly growing.
     A quick glance through Homoactive’s sites and you’ll probably notice that one of their specialties is European content, with titles featuring the very best in  raunchy, hardcore, fetish, and bareback sex from the leading European studios. Anyone with a penchant for lovely Euro boys will find this site to offer a surprising treasure trove of fetish porn that will satiate even the most discerning kink-porn aficionados. Homoactive definitely doesn’t limit itself to the European market, however. If it’s hardcore, they’ve usually got it. Titles from San Francisco-based Treasure Island Media like Christian: 24 Cocks in 24 Hours can be found right alongside Vlado Iresch titles like Raw Piss Prison. Their overall selection is admittedly smaller than some of the mega-VOD sites online, but it would be more apt to describe their selection as carefully chosen rather than as being limited. Homoactive is all about quality titles and as a result you’ll find most of the best hardcore, kink, and bareback titles and very little fluff.
     One of Homoactive’s main selling points is its accessibility and the simple but stylish way in which they present their content and allow you to navigate through it. Their sites are both sleek and intuitive, with everything right where you’d expect it to be and nice, big box covers and screen captures from the films. It’s always free to browse through Homoactive TV’s collection of VOD titles, but you’re better off with an optional free account so you can access Homoactive’s exclusive viewer chat rooms. At Homoactive’s store, creating a free account also grants access to free previews. And besides offering competitive prices, the store even has a great rewards program where you can earn free DVDs. The rewards program is free and credits you with Loyalty Points every time you purchase DVDs. It’s fun to watch the points accrue and especially exciting to use them and get free stuff! The points are listed as a payment option right alongside credit cards. While you’re busy racking up those Loyalty Points by purchasing DVDs, your purchases will all be shipped to you within 24 hours (excluding Saturdays) and – our favorite part – shipping is always free anywhere in the world! How much would that save you versus buying things on Ebay or Amazon?!
     If you can’t stand to wait even 24 hours for your porn, that’s where Homoactive’s VOD site comes in. You can get your films almost instantaneously via downloads or streaming. The ability to get your DVDs and your VOD from one source is definitely a plus – and Homoactive TV’s competitive pay-per-minute VOD option makes it painless and risk-free to try out unfamiliar titles that you’re really curious about.
     Homoactive’s slogan of “Turn On, Tune In, Get Off” pretty well describes the simple process of registering for a free account and a Free Trial that will guarantee 5 points of viewing credit – an added bonus for checking out their content.
     Since Homoactive’s VOD site largely caters to a specific niche (gay hardcore and fetish content) a lot of care has gone into providing a great experience navigating through the site. The images are crisp and detailed and once you’ve picked a scene to watch, you’ll definitely see the difference in playback quality. The Flash format guarantees uninterrupted streaming in high quality output, too. A great feature is the ability to zoom the player’s window size without losing quality.
     We love a good bargain and Homoactive TV doesn’t shy away from giving you what you want. Click on the “Special Deals” link on the left sidebar menu and you’ll be taken to a page of videos available at discount prices per minute. If you’ve already purchased in bulk, your minutes are increased even further and your viewing time has also increased. This opens up a window of time that can be devoted to checking out some fetishes you might not have considered before.
     Homoactive adds new titles weekly, so there’s always something new to discover. Their excellent customer service, robust and simple interface, and focus on customers – as well as their specialty content – makes them an ideal choice for all your gay porn needs online.
