Review:

This is a bit of a weird one. In general, it is a network of porn sites mostly featuring amateurs (we didn't recognize many "name" pornstars) coming out of Argentina. Though the promotional stuff often mentions "Spain," we assume this just means Spanish, as in the language. The English can be rough in places, so it's easy to see how they could have gotten messed up.

We're not sure what Torbe means. It might refer to the chubby, hairy guy (no, he's not The Minion) who appears in a number of the sites. Or maybe that's Marco Torino, the producer of most of the content. Anyway, what makes the site really weird are some of the oddball concepts. Stuff like Josito's Will, which has a guy in a wheelchair making it. Or Priest Damian, which has a horny priest making it. Or Freak Bukkake, which has a bunch of guys in wrestling masks making it. Well, at least it's something different. And it has a sense of humour about it, too. Even though you can't always figure out what they're saying.

The line-up when we visited was advertising 33 sites. Are all of these exclusive? No. Some of the Europorn stuff looks to have been licensed, though most of the other stuff seems fresh. Are they all actively updating? No. Some of them seemed to have been dead for a year. But across the network as a whole (and if you join any site you enter into the network homepage), there are updates coming daily Monday to Friday. Anyway, here's the line-up. We believe most of the names are self-explanatory: Brunette Fever, Busty Isabel, Cum Cum Sofia, Diana Dean, Freak Bukkake, French Amateur Sex, Heal My Ass (seems to have re-branded as Doktor Schmutz), Josito's Will, Lorena Latin Lover, Masscha, Motorhome Bangs, My Sexy Roxana, My Week With Yanire, Naughty Tania, Only Euro Porn, Priest Damian, Silvia Next Door, Spy Torbe, Street Bribes, Torbe Couples, Torbe Cz, Torbe Films, Torbe Girls, Torbe High Class, Torbe Homemade, Torbe in Argentina, Torbe in Russia, Torbe Loves Boobs, Torrente XXX, Valeria on Fire, Way Too Hot Lesbians, Xtreme Victoria.

It all adds up to 900,000 mb of content, and like we say, most of it is exclusive. The site layout and functionality is pretty good. Navigation is easy and you get a lot of download options with the video (mpeg, QuickTime, iPod, and Windows Media as full files, or 50 meg Windows Media clips). The best option is the Windows Media, formatted at 1280x720. That said, there are some glitches. Worst of all were the links to the photo and vidcap galleries, most of which we tried took us to a promotional page. This was sloppy to say the least. And kind of dumb, since what was being promoted was the Torbe Network (i.e., the very site you were already a member of). There's also some advertising at the bottom of the individual pages, but it's easy to ignore.

Membership is a bit expensives at $29.99/month. And don't be fooled by all the come-ons saying it's $7.99 a month. That's only the rate if you join for a year. Perhaps the biggest drawback is the fact that once you get past the oddball niche sites they've got, a lot of the other sites look the same. And, as noted, this isn't a really streamlined, polished operation. Nevertheless it does offer up a whack of original material, some good-looking girls you might not have seen before, and decent quality. Kind of pricey, but worth a look if you've exhausted all the alternatives.
