Satellite Adult Channels

[brassneck]

As I`m currently thinking of subscribing to one of these channels, can anyone advise which is the best, by which I mean who shows British and European videos. All advice greatly appreciated.

Are you talking softcore or hardcore?

[Matt]

Don't quite get your question, but if you mean should I get TVX or TAC, it depends on what network you use. If you use ONdigital, get TAC. If you use sky, get TVX, cos you get two hours extra.

Thats my advise.

Wooo! Get the Adult Channel! Wooo! It's the best! Wooo! I'm heavily biased! Wooo! It's got the best looking girls! Wooo! It has the filthiest action! Wooo! They pay my wages! Woooo!

Seriously though, when it comes to British programming and in particular girl/girl, TAC offers some really great stuff. Excluding my own shows (Banged Up, Class Action, Star Whores, Labia: Warrior Princess and Double 'O' Heaven), there's SXTV, Sandy Babe Abroad, Sam gets her Girl, Villa Lesbos etc., etc.

But I am biased, so the best thing to do is take the advice from the more impartial members of this forum.

And of course, you could always try each channel on a single night pay per view basis to make up your mind before parting with your hard earned readys.

Actually, I think TVX probably has it on a photo finish when it comes to quality American soft core (some soft core but edited hardcore) - TAC tend to repeat loads of their films and some of their films are simply dire. However, TAC are STREAKS ahead when it comes to British based stuff.

I'm actually a big fan of Big Jim and his superb shows and I'd recommend you get TAC. Sky or not, get TAC. Yep, I've changed my mind. Reading the list of stuff TAC broadcasts has reminded me how good they are.

Very briefly, at the risk of going too far off-topic, sky digital has some foreign adult channels listed, including some well known hardcore channels. Is there hardcore on digital TV? Or is it edited down to softcore? Some of the euro films I've seen listed, if they cut them for softcore, they'd be about 15 minutes long...

Hardcore on british (digital) tv? I don't think the channels would dare try it (just yet).The ITC would come down on them like a ton of bricks and soon they wouldn't be transmitting the weather, let alone any porn.Still, maybe one day, perhaps when a satellite channel actually has the balls to take legal action.
In the mean time HC on satellite is available to our european cousins(lucky bastards!), and, dare I say it, to you and I(illeagally, of course!), if you fancy spending hundreds (thousands?) of pounds on the right dish, decoder, pirate card, etc.Any decent satellite magazine will carry adverts if you wanted to give it a try.

I think you should sub to both as I produce for both and they are top class. otherwise how can you zap between channels all night and annoy everyone.
As for the ITC. They have always been to big for their boots I used to have a RSL licence to broadcast and deal with them on a daily basis, they think the whole world is millionaires and they are utter snobs, which as you can imagine does not go down well with me. I look forward to having a digital terestrial channel as early as next year and broadcast hard-core..fk..them..

It is not illegal to subscribe to the hardcore channels broadcast from Europe, but you're unlikely to get them using a Sky Digibox. A digital receiver, with Viaccess Cam and a dish pointed at Hotbird (13E) will give you a few channels to choose from. 'What Satellite' magazine will give you all the details.
Phil, if you label all your films as being 'Educational' you might just get away with it. ONrequest have been showing full penetration and cum shots, just because they are called 'The Lovers Guide'. Good Luck!

On that subject BJ, do you sell 'other versions' of your productions, ie with the bits you can't show on TAC left in? - I'm sure loads of people on this forum would be interested if you do.
As for the channels, I was lucky enough to get hold of a 'chipped' box (for cable) recently so I get everything for nothing anyway - at least till they turn analog off!.
