When I first hooked up to the Bondage tour page, I was immediately curious. They claim to be the largest BDSM community on the net and they also claim to be free. My first though was "what's up with this?" I've never visited a community site before, well, not as it relates to BDSM or anything but literary forms of erotica, so I felt somewhat adventurous and excited.
Signing up to Bondage is easy. Basically you register with no payment required. It's not until you access the member's page when you notice there are indeed pay-per-view links, but there's just as much in the way of free photos, videos and stories as well. Indeed, the site layout, which is relatively organized and simple to navigate, reveals an International community of those into BDSM. In fact, there's a small city of over 370,000 members, which makes searching through the personals section a lot more exciting. No matter your kink, you're bound to find something or someone to top or bottom.
New pictures are added at an almost constant rate. The site has been around since 1998, but just to give you an idea, there were 107 sets and images (273x400, 400x600) added this past week and 437 in the last month. All can be rated and some are pro, where others are amateur and there's an incredible mix from Japanese bondage to role-play and hardcore and you can find your preferences through a good search engine.
There are 18 video feed sections. Most are hardcore and fetish niches, although there were few BDSM links. The variety of formats and quality depends on the site, but expect WMV (260k, 320x240) streams of taped live shows, feeds and Ksex Radio. A couple of sites claimed they had Real Player streams, but they ran through Windows Media. The look of the content I viewed was better than some pay sites that I've seen. However, expect a lot of back clicking with the feeds.
There's a whole fetish supermarket on this site and it's hard to tell you about all of it in a short length of time. Other than content mentioned, there are columns, advice, book lists, blogs, stories, live chat, forums and a whole lot more that you're free to explore and really, how can you complain about a site that offers a lot and you don't have to pay for it?
