Amateur Canada

The tour offered huge amounts of content, the members’ area home page contains just eight images but don’t let that fool you. Spend just a few moments looking at the page before you go rushing about looking for the content and it will save you a lot of time later. It’s not that navigation is difficult, in fact it appears to be quite the opposite, it’s just that site is different to most porn sites that you might have come across.

All the links that you will need are right there on the front page, all you need to do is choose what you want to look at first. I elected to follow the link to one of the recent movie updates and was immediately disappointed.

I found the girl and her movie with no problems at all but there was no option for a member to download or view the complete video. Instead the video was divided up into clips and to view the clips through Firefox I was going to have to download the clip and download time, even on DSL, was going to be very slow. It actually took me over 10 minutes to download one 24mb clip.

I could of course actually buy the full length movie for $12.95 but it wasn’t going to come in a format that would play in my country – and of course I also had to run the risk of having in confiscated by Customs. I wonder how a member who has just paid for a membership would feel about forking out more money for a video that many other sites would have given the member for free.

I finally did manage to download one clip but the quality was definitely not worth the time spent waiting for the download to finish. of one clip before I gave up and, in the interests of fairness, fired up my IE browser. Firefox is becoming more popular but few paysites seem interesting in setting up their sites to handle anything other than IE.

In IE the movie clip did play while it downloaded but the download speed was terrible and after just 27 seconds the movie stopped for buffering. It stopped again at the one minute mark and that was where I gave up trying to view the clips through IE. Each break for buffering was quite long and the quality of the video wasn’t worth wasting any more time on. That is unfortunate because the content is excellent, these amateur babes really know how to suck and fuck but unfortunately the members need a lot of patience to actually see the action.

By the time I moved on to the image galleries I really was beginning to wonder about Amateur Canada. The tour offered so much and while it seemed to be delivering on those promises the quality had not impressed me. My opinion did change a little when I got to the image galleries. The site certainly has some sexy girls who really know how to tease and please a man.

Each set of images on this site come in two sizes. There are small images that display at 640x480 and the larger size that come in at 1280x960. Zip files of the smaller sized images are provided for you to download. The quality of the images is variable. Some of the big images that looked really good in the thumbnails were so blurry that they simply were not worth looking at. I thought that the situation might have been better with the 640x480 sized images but that was not the case.

Now I realize that some of these image sets were shot by amateur photographers who were caught up in the heat and passion of a hardcore photo hoot and that is an excuse for some of the poor quality in the images but I’ve also run an amateur site so I know that it doesn’t take a lot of effort to improve the quality of the image with software that is readily available.

After all that negativity is there anything positive I can say about the site? Yes there is. The site is about amateurs and the people who appear on this site really are amateurs and they have that wild love of hardcore sex that all genuine amateurs seem to enjoy. Navigation around the site is easy and that’s not easy to achieve in a site this size. The site does update regularly and they do provide genuine customer service. At various times of the day members can ‘talk’ directly with someone from the site via the inbuilt messaging system on the site.

Membership in this site does not give you access to any bonus sites although there are some extra feeds that members have access too. However, I didn’t get to look at those because the first one I clicked on required me to be viewing the site with Internet Explorer and by that time I had got back to Firefox.
