BG Review
Next Door
Pass gives you access to a bundle of seven sites featuring high quality, mostly guy-on-guy
porn. This impressive suite includes: Next Door Male, Next Door Buddies and Stroke That Dick
(all-male sites); Next Door Hookups (straight encounters); and Tommy D and Cody Cummings (bi
action). There's also a stripper site, Nude Male Dancers.
All seven sites focus on handsome, amateur collegiate guys. And never fear: if you only want to
watch men it's easy enough to filter out the girlies. The more than
750 hot, high quality
videos on these sites gave us many horny and satisfying moments.

The
Next
Door Pass sites are going through a redesign so there are two distinct looks to them, although
they all feature mirror-type tours with full episode indexes complete with preview pics and clips
for each episode.
Navigation
The
Next
Door Pass sites (whether with the old or new design) have a clean look and smooth navigation
overall, though with a few quirks. The members' home page starts you right off with the episode
index. Click on any model or session box and you'll go to a page that includes either a model bio or
a scene description plus a photo gallery and links for the video.
Content
Next Door
Pass populates its seven sites with a choice crew of cute, collegiate, 19-30 year-olds. There
are a few tats and piercings thrown in, but mostly these guys are straight-up young, sexy, and
muscular, without being
too huge, muscled, or plucked.
The solo sessions come in two flavors: either divided into three vignettes within the full
length video: on the couch, in the shower, and finishing on a bed; or just one scene. The duo and
group sessions are also usually shot indoors on a bed or in a living room. There's a fairly
conventional roster of activities on the male sites, including sucking, rimming, fucking, and dildo
play.
On the guy/girl site you'll find fucking, pussy licking, and of course, strappy stiletto
worship. The girls are actually there to showcase these hot collegiate guys - and it works.
Just to avoid snowing you with too much detail about the video content of these seven sites, we'll
start by telling you: there's lots!
Well over 200 men (no offence, but we're not counting the girls) at
Next Door Pass appear in videos
throughout the seven sites. The movies average 15 minutes in length, and there is a full movie and
picture gallery update once weekly for
each site.
At review time the breakdown was as follows:
Next Door Male:
160 solo male videos
Stroke That Dick:
130 solo male videos
Next Door Buddies:
160 male/male videos
Tommy D. And Friends:
140 total male/male videos & male/female videos
Next Door Hookups:
130 male/female videos
Cody Cummings:
25 solo, male/female, and male/male videos
Nude Male Dancers:
75 solo male videos of strippers at Montreal's famous "Stock" bar.
This adds up to
750 original, exclusive videos. Although you will see model sharing across
the sites, each video is original and unique to that site.
Video will stream or download in Windows Media or Quicktime. The most recent videos are fast (2,000
kbps) and play in a very large (720x480 pixel) window.
All of the videos in the redesigned
Tommy D and Next Door Buddies are of this type, but in the other sites about half the videos drop
down to between 500 kbps and 300 kbps with the video playing in the more standard 320x240 window.
All video is full-length only, not divided into clips. There is no DRM on the videos, so you can
download and keep it as long as you like.
The videos are good quality. Since the top speeds on offer vary according to how recently the video
was added to the sites, the more recent ones stream faster and look better (including when viewed at
full screen). The sessions have an abundance of well-distributed light, clear sound, and a good
range of camera angles, close-up and medium shots, and model poses. The all-important cumshots are
all there. (In the case of LiveMaleDancers the videos are shot "live" during performances at the
strip bar. Quality varies and there is little actual sex.)
There are almost 650 image galleries, averaging 35 pictures each. The lighting and poses in these
pictures is definitely above average. Many of them are digital photos. Some of the galleries are
topped up at the end by a couple of video captures of lesser quality for the cumshots, and some of
the galleries consist entirely of video captures.
Respect
The sign-up process for Next Door Buddies is not user-friendly:
- you must enter information on three separate pages.
- you will be added to a mailing list unless you check off a box at the bottom of page one.
- the pricing information does not indicated that the memberships will rebill.
- you will be signed up for a 3 day trial membership to gaypornaccess.com unless you uncheck a
box.
For all of these reasons, we have docked 3 points off the "Fairness" score.
Summing Up
These are the guys you see around town and think: "I bet he's straight, but I sure wish he'd throw
me down on the bed and fuck me". The exclusive content and good looking amateurs at the seven
Next Door Pass
sites will appeal to those who like hot, regular guys aged 19-30 who have an authentic amateur
look. By sticking to this particular model type and offering so damn much porn-for-dollar,
Next Door Pass
serves up great value.
