I just read somewhere that it is illegal in Australia except in two states to sell or rent any X-rated materials. Come on Australia. You are better than this. Open up a little! But I feel like I digress. Let's get back to today's subject: PornLib. Is it worthy of your attention? We're about to figure that out!
For those of you who don't know PornLib yet, PornLib is a general videos site. This means that the site does not specialize in one small niche or fetish. Instead, it offers a little something for everyone's taste.
Like the majority of the other tube sites out there, PornLib built its content from community-uploaded videos. As a result, the length and quality can be pretty inconsistent from one video to another. What I can already tell you without killing the surprise is that at the end of the day, PornLib is a somewhat good site. In short, it's a site to visit at least once.
And the good news is: absolutely no credit card is needed: PornLib content is completely free. Now it is time to jump straight into the action and see what we’re dealing with here.
Site features
The first thing we will be looking at is what the site looks like. From the moment I arrived on PornLib's home page, I was hit by the entirely mundane design. PornLib has about the same design as every other comparable site. Nothing fancy. That being said, make no mistake, if PornLib is not that good-looking, it still gets the job done. And that is all that matters.
Hover above any of the images with your mouse and you get a preview of the video. I mean an actual quick clip playing out, not one of that screenshot slideshow bullshit.
As for the video player, it is just great. With some bad video players, when you jump ahead, you can have an error that makes you lose your connection to the video and you have to reload the page in order to make it work again. I didn't get that kind of error while watching videos on PornLib. Furthermore, it didn't take too much time to load a video.
As far as ads are concerned, PornLib is nowhere near the worst. With an ad-blocker running, the situation on PornLib is annoying but not so bad it's going to prevent you from enjoying the site. Many other sites do the same.
The site is only available in English.
Another crucial feature any porn site must implement is the search function. What is the point of having the best porn scene ever if nobody can find it? So, let's find out how difficult it is to find something on the site.
For starters, there is the search box. It helps the users find what they are looking for by specifying keywords without navigating through the entire website. Alas, the search box implements the OR operator by default. With the OR operator, each result contains at least one keyword. This will reduce the precision of multiple terms searches. The results can be filtered only by video-quality. It is possible to sort by relevance, upload-date, rating and length.
The content is split into categories but, alas, there are no tags. And you cannot build playlists either.
In short, the search feature is pretty good for searches simple enough, but finding the porn that you want can sometimes be more difficult than expected. Keep your searches simple and everything should be OK though.
PornLib content
Let's just face this simple fact: the content is arguably the most important part of a porn site.
As I mentioned before, PornLib does not specialize in a particular porn niche and, for the most part, its content is made up of clips of varying lengths. Besides, Straight, Gay and Shemale videos are available.
Well, the video quality is pretty good. At least, not worse than on most porn sites. This is the typical porn tube content: a mix of bad and good videos. Just filter out the bad stuff and you are good. Furthermore, the video's resolution is good enough.
There is a good balance between short and long clips.
The video catalog is gigantic. I'm sure they have just about everything you could possibly want.
Is PornLib a good site?
Overall, I think PornLib is an okay free porn site.
Its media player buffers videos quickly, and its content is good. At the same time, it has a few adverts, not that many videos, a weak search feature, and no length filter.
Now, the big question is: should you take the time to visit this website? Well, despite its flaws, PornLib is a site to visit if you have some time to spare.
