We are too old to understand the charm of watching porn on an iPod. But for all you youngsters, that is a big selling point with this site. Here are some of the movies on tap: Hip Hop Divas Orgy (that means "black lesbians"), DP Mamacitas (that means two or more guys fucking one latina chick), Chick Flick (girl-girl), Bottoms Up (anal).

Review:

Screw. "It's what men like to do."

Of course. But more to the point, jerking off is what men like to do. Which is why they also like to download porn. Screw.com (which is a terrific name, by the way) gives you the chance to do just that, in the by now very, very familiar format of the DVD download site.

Layout is basically the same template as the other biggies, almost identical to VideoBox and Videosz. Latest movies, identified by box cover, are in the middle. You can use the drop down menus on the left to search by studio, series and performer. If you click on a movie you go to the download page where you can download individual scenes. This is quite smoothly presented, as it has to be since there are so many download options. Each scene can be (1) streamed; (2) downloaded for portable; or (3) downloaded for PC. There are four download options for portable (a category that includes iPod and Zune formats), and six for PC.

Abrupt, almost totally pointless digression: What the fuck is up with kids these days? We've seen them watching TV shows and movies on their iPods and other handheld devices and it kills us. Who the fuck wants to watch a movie on a little three-inch screen? Who? OK, now ask yourself: Who the fuck wants to watch porn on a little three-inch screen? Can someone explain this to us? Anyone? What the fuck is going on? Does it make any fucking difference if the video is HD if you watch it on an iPod? You're still looking at a postage stamp. Is this format being used by people who want to download porn on the sly and not use the family computer? Is that what it's all about? Or people who have to have porn with them all the time so they can watch it . . . in various public places like on a bus or subway or in a plane? Are we just getting old? Maybe. Because it seems like all the best sites these days make a big thing out of offering these download options. We suppose there must be some demand for them. We just can't see where.

End of digression.

Back to the field work. As noted, you get a lot of different download options. The best is a 512x384 and 1500 kb/s .avi file. From there you go down by degrees to a "low" Windows Media file that is 320x240 and 500 kb/s. Apparently you can only download full scenes, not parts of scenes and not full movies.

This was all really good. We liked the video quality, liked all the options, liked the layout, and liked the fact there were no watermarks on any of the movies.

The actual collection was just so-so. 546 movies up when we visited, which is--believe it or not--kind of low for this niche. Most of the big boys are well over 1,000 now. Plus the update schedule here is just basically treading water adding one new title a day. Sure that's great . . . until you compare it to the competition. All of these sites are adding at least one new movie a day. The Search function also left us a little cold. In the menu to search by performer, for example, there were only 22 names available to look up. And the results seemed to only give us DVDs, even when we were trying to search for scenes. Perhaps because individual scenes aren't broken down with any specific info, like performer names. Another area that could be improved.

Yes, this is a good site. But these DVD download sites are all good sites. Screw is no different. And it looked like a lot of the same titles and series we've gotten used to seeing too. Of course they could have exclusive dibs on some stuff, but we couldn't identify it for you. Anyway, it's a well run site. Not our first choice for a DVD download membership, perhaps not even in the top three, but judged on its own it's fine.
