Stud Port Ratings
Content Quantity: 16/20
You have a choice of qualities from a high def down to a dial up compatible one, plus downloads suitable for iPods. The movie making is generally good.
Content Quality: 16/20
The 229 DVDs here each have various amounts of scenes in them, so there are plenty of 15 to 25 minute long scenes to view. There are also 78 feed sites with even more content.
Updates: 7/10
There are more or less continuous updates to the feed sites with new scenes every other day – or so. It’s not regular but it is very frequent and you have a page that lists the feeds’ updates. I’m not so sure about updates to the 229 DVD collection though.
Exclusivity: 2/10
The site doesn’t produce its own content but has content from a large number of studios and feed sites.

Full Stud Port Review
So what you have here is basically a collection; a good one, but not one that is exclusive or particularly different from other sites. In fact, you could argue that there are DVD theatres out there with much more content and information than this one. But Stud Port plays its part in bringing you quality porn for a reasonable price and it is also an easy site to access and use.
For example: there are 34 categories of movies to choose from, you can search the database by the studios who contribute to it, the directors of the movies or the stars. The list of stars is pretty long but if you know who you like this is where you will find him. You can also see all the titles by clicking the DVD list, you can see all the scenes, over 1,000 of them, listed five per page, sort them by oldest to newest or by title. There are plenty of options to help you find what you want. And it’s all very simple too. There is a lot of white used in the design which tends to make the site feel rather clinical, and there isn’t much of an atmosphere. It’s a bit like going into a modern, municipal library to find your viewing material as opposed to finding it in a sex shop. But no matter – the porn’s the thing and you are sure to find hours of it here.
Select a scene, I've gone for something in the underwear category as it’s one you don’t find very often.

I am browsing by available scenes here, rather than titles, and I've found 54 of them in this section. I have five viewing options here all clearly marked. There are three WMV downloads, from 128kb up to 1,024kb, an iPod/iTunes one and a stream, which is also WMV, running at 576 @ 320 x 240, not fantastic but viewable. The scenes run for an average of 20 minutes and the production quality is good. It’s all very sensible and organised and… well, normal really. It’s not really standing out for me so far.
That’s not to say it’s a site to be ignored. There are some studios and titles here that I’ve never heard of so, although the content may not be exclusive, I would say that some of it is rare. I clicked a couple of ‘new to me’ studios and found their content but not any information about them. There isn’t much in the way of info here, like the date of release and so on, but you do get a list of performers with each scene/title. Again, there is no information about each guy like some theatre sites provide but you can link to any other scenes he may be in, so you can follow your favourite stud, twink or bear around the well stocked shelved of movies.

When you add together the 1,000 plus scenes and those contained in the 78 feed sites you realise that you have a wealth of content here and the fact that the site is a bit on the bland side to look at, doesn’t really matter. I would say this is great site for anyone who either wants a bit of everything or doesn’t know what he wants. If this is your first time searching out gay porn then Stud Port would be a good place to find the kinds of things that are available on more specialist sites; it’s reasonably priced, easy to use and contains a good amount of varied examples of well made gay porn.
