I've only watched the Babestation Xtreme once but the live show part was hot and worth £5 in my opinion.

Obviously you've got to be selective because of the expense and it doesn't take a genius to work out that there is a limited amount of material available - particularly featuring the babestation girls. It probably goes about 50/50 on the girls who will or won't go further than they do on the normal shows. As someone else said the live shows are fairly good value if you add in the better short films from the night. But I'd never pay for a non-live show night so I can't really comment on what they are like. I presume the audience is very small compared to Fridays and saturdays. I'd suggest that babestation cuts it's losses by doing something like if you pay for Friday and Saturday you get the remaining five days free. If very few people have bought the other days it will encourage more people to fri/sat and might even generate income in the long run.

You think 40 mins viewing time is worth £5?????

Geez, I wish I had your job if you have cash to chuck away like that.

For twice that amount you could have a whole month of TVX.

My faith in humanity is being restored. And lets be clear if you want a decent piece of porn TVX is well worth the £5 for a whole month. I just dont get this. Even if they have two good nights a week you really want to watch thats nearly £40 per month.It just does not make sense!!!

It still seems far better value than paying £5 to listen to 2 girls talking dirty on the phone for 3 minutes.

If you know who's on the live show(s) you can obviously base your decision on that. Over the course of a weekend two live shows = approx 90 minutes add in say three short films that were worth watching eg lolly and michelle, lolly and camilla and you've got around three hours. So for a tenner you get a three hour dvd of almost hardcore - does it still sound expensive?

And don't anyone bother replying with why pay for porn when you can download or watch it for free. Those of us who keep the porn industry going by actually paying the people who produce it for their product are keeping the rest happily wanking for free. In just the same way as those of us who ring the channels are keeping the non-callers entertained.

3 hours Xtreme compared with a month of TVX for the same price? Yep, that still sounds expensive.

True, but that's not really the comparison being made. It's rather like saying that a cheap joint of beef is good value to a vegetarian. You have to compare like with like, and as far as I'm concerned Xtreme is a direct comparison with TVX.

Besides, without those who pay to call in the babe channels wouldn't exist.

Yes it does. But there's evidently a demand for it, otherwise it wouldn't work. There's generally always going to be service/product that's more expensive in every category. For example in the porn website category, who in their right mind would subscribe to one of the Cellcast porn sites when there are other sites out there like reality kings, twistys or DDF releasing mutiple new photosets and videos on a daily basis? People who want specific content is the answer. People who want the occasional video and photoset of a specific girl. BSXtreme is much like this. In addition to the pretty lame 'porn' scenes that TVX also shows, they also broadcast exclusive softcore scenes of girls that are in high demand (due to them being on their babe shows). This is the real unique selling point of the BSXtreme service, one that enables them to sell their product for more.

While they offer a good value monthly fee, the pay per night cost of watching TVX on Freeview is £6.99. Their entire model of £6.99 per night or £9.99 per month, suggests that TVX believe that on average the customer isn't likely to pay for more than one nights viewing per month - otherwise they'd take a risk, and either scrap their monthly fee and bank on their customers paying for two nights, or raise the monthly fee above the cost of two nights viewing.

BSXtreme evidently have greater pulling power and believe they can get the average customer to pay for more that one night per month (if this wasn't the case, they'd introduce a monthly fee of around £10 or less).

Plus a lot of tvx is available on dvd in hardcore on dvd which I'd rather pay for than cut down softcore on tv. The live extreme shows aren't, evey I particularly wanted to see so that was well worth five quid. I've seen six shows plus the first (free and disastrous) night and can't say I feel ripped off in anyway.
