Review: Black pornstar and director Lex Steele has made many porn videos with some of the most famous women in the business. He's known for his interracial porn as well as for the size of his cock. Lex Steele is his official site, so let's take a look at the member area and see what we find!

The member area navigation is fairly simple once you get there. When you log into the member area, you are actually taken to the Pornstar Network page, but the link to Lex Steele is near the top of the page, so click that and you're in.

There are over 300 videos in the member area, and a new video is added every week. Most of the vids star Lex himself, but some are videos he directed. The vids are offered in long clips, and the best quality are WMVs shown at 480x360 with a 732k bitrate. They look pretty good but lose some sharpness if you enlarge them to full screen. There are several smaller sizes of WMVs and 2 sizes of MPGs, and all the videos are downloadable. Each come with a set of vidcaps, too.

In addition to the videos, there are also 31 pic good quality exclusive pic sets, although I don't think the pics section is being updated any longer.

Lex Steele members also get access to a large collection of bonus sites including another of Lex's own sites and pornstars sites Vanessa Blue and Club Peter North. There are also single girl sites and plenty of niche sites. I'd say these add a lot of value for members.

Lex Steele fucks plenty of name pornstars, and he really knows his stuff. His member area contians over 300 downloadable movies in WMV and MPG formats, and updates weekly. Members also get access to a large network of bonus sites. While I'd have liked to see a blog or behind the scenes vids from Lex himself, the site still has a lot to offer his fans or interracial sex lovers.

Score (out of 5) Description
3.5 Content Quality
Fairly good but not "dvd quality" as claimed. Can go fullscreen without looking too bad. Transfer seems a little dark. Audio is a little on the quiet side.
4.0 Content Quantity
315 videos plus vidcaps and 31 pic sets.
3.0 Updates
Updates once a week.
2.0 Honesty
Tour claims DVD quality, exclusive footage, behind-the-scenes video, scheduled live shows but member area doesn't deliver on these.
3.0 Presentation
Network section is complicated but main site not bad. Not much personality and somewhat awkward layout. Mostly works, though live section is dead.
3.5 Value
A good amount of content, weekly updates, lots of bonus sites, but lacking some of the features claimed in the tour
3.5 Overall
Site rating, not an average.
