Bookmark UsDark Beef Review (DarkBeef)
Dark Beef turns out to be very run of the mill: non-exclusive ebony videos are the theme and there may be some here that you have not seen before.
Very user friendly, all gay black porn
On the smaller side for a video site, non exclusive
Dark Beef Ratings
Content Quantity: 14/20
Dark Beef has good quality compared to many other niche video sites, but it could use some improvement
Content Quality: 12/20
Although they are good at updating once a week, they need more time to grow
Updates: 8/10
They update with a full dvd once a week
Exclusivity: 0/10
The content is non exclusive from DVDs
Features & Extras: 5/10
I liked all of the different browsing features, but the extras seem to be a bit lacking
Navigation, Design: 8/10
the navigation is great, and the design is okay - nothing special, though
Speed: 8/10
The speed is good.
Value: 7/10
The value is pretty good considering how much you would be spending if you bought all those dvds one by one

Full Dark Beef Review
Dark Beef has the wonderful attribute of being completely transparent - the tour is the site. This is typical of non exclusive DVD downloading sites, but it's always something that makes me feel better when I'm first taking a look at things. At least, unless the member's area / tour is godawful, in which case it makes me cry inside to know they're identical. Dark Beef doesn't suffer from this, although it does look pretty much identical to most video download sites.
The first welcomed sight was seeing that they have a pretty religious update schedule - every 7 days on the dot. There is also a site search which works with titles or pornstar names - another must for a video download site like this one. Finally, all of the content is either black or interracial - just like their tagline says, there is no filler content here. The content count might seem a bit small at 65, especially for a non exclusive site, but the videos are over an hour long - some of them go up to over two hours. It's hard to complain about that when many porn sites only offer 15 minute videos.
There are quite a few different browsing options, so no matter how you like to look around there is something for you. There are options to look at the most downloaded dvds, the most downloaded scenes, the top rated, viewing all in either dvds or scenes, and checking out new DVDs.

Members Area Screenshots
If that's not enough, you can also go through categories which show you all of the micro niche ebony gay porn they have waiting in the wings. There are also drop downs for studio and genre.
The video page gives you a quick description of the video, the video cover, and then the various scenes. There is a big button at the top that I had assumed was for a full scene download, but it actually ends up just linking to the tour page. The buttons you'll want to grab are the ones below, with the individual scene downloads. There are a few screen caps to give you an idea of what to expect. Although the video quality does vary from video to video due to different source qualities, in general the WMVs are 640x480 and 1.40 mbps. They're very watchable and have no DRM - all in all Dark Beef is shaping up to be a user friendly site. There are streaming and downloading options for each video, both in WMVs.
One thing that confused me was the lack of the shemale bonus content access - it's mentioned on the join page, but I cannot find anything about it in the member's area - you might want to hold on to your join email to keep that information around, just in case.

Other than that, there aren't any extras. Dark Beef is what it is - a non exclusive site that makes it easy for you to have all of your favorite gay black porn DVDs in one place. If this is the kind of thing that you get into, you'll be happy with the download options and browsing options. If you've been around the block and you're looking for something new in ebony gay porn, then you'll probably be disappointed.
