Come to think of it, lite.r18.com is probably DMM's answer to Erito.com (which is somewhat ironic given Erito's content is all licensed from DMM).

Hi, a banner on R18 said "sign up and get a free full-length movie"

I signed up, but how can I get that full-length movie for free?

Interesting idea. Feels like a free site. Just interested to know how the movies are selected. The player works without any issues. No listed movie id's or search function which is a pain.

We are going to keep improving LITE during next months. Search engine, actress list etc are some of the next improvements that will be released.

Its not really the answer to Erito.com.
We work together with Erito.com to license our content. We don't consider it as a rival as we wont give them our content if we do so.

The idea behind LITE is to offer an interface very similar to what users are used now with the TUBE sites and try to convert this TUBE users to paid users offering a very cheap option (4.7 USD compared to the traditional monthly price of 29 USD).

We think offering this interface and price may be appealing for the users that watch porn on TUBE sites.

Erito definitely is a rival. I'm not sure how you can see otherwise. They own most of the tubes you're referring to along with the largest traffic network for adult sites. This lets them direct traffic to whatever they want like nobody's business. They also often with promotions charge under $20USD/month for a subscription.

I think Lite is better in that it at least keeps the titles intact so don't take my comments as criticism. They're anything but!

I think it is a fabulous idea.

I purchased GM-032 from R18 a few days ago. I received purchase confirmation email from R18 and the title appears in MyLibrary. However I am unable to download the HD version. All I get is a 2 byte file which of course will not play. I appear to be able to download other titles in HD from MyLibrary.

I've tried to contact R18 support, but haven't received a reply. Just wondering if there is any way I can force a download or how I could fix this problem.

Thanks for any help or advice

Hi, sent me your registered email by private and we will investigate.
I just downloaded the same movie file with no problem.

Hi, many thanks for the reply I would very much appreciate you investigating. Just one thing - I'm not sure how to send a private message on this forum. Do I click "start conversation" when I click your avatar?

When is R18 going to get VR videos that DMM offers? I bought a few DMM VR videos but for some reason I can't sign in on my GearVR app :(

Hi R18. Just a quick note to let you know that GM-032 finally downloaded for me today. Not sure if you had something to do with that - but if you did - many thanks.

Very strange though - I bought a couple of titles after purchasing GM-032 and they downloaded fine as did other titles in My Library.

Have to say customer support is really bad. I've sent several messages and not received a single reply.

Anyway - all's well that ends well I suppose.

There's a bunch of early Mana Sakura titles that have only been released in SD. I'm just wondering if it is possible to make a request to R.18 to release them in HD? I'd buy them all if they were available in HD.

Any thoughts - do R18 take notice of such requests?

TIA

Some studios shot in HD as early as 2008, but still released as SD so it's possible a real HD version exists somewhere. Any earlier though and it's very doubtful.

If they were produced before HD titles were being produced they may not be able to.

Thanks for the input.

Mana Sakura's first title was 5th December 2011, and all her work are on SOD Create. I'm pretty sure that SOD were well into HD at that time. Also they recently released a 5th anniversary compilation title. It features some of the early SD vids in HD. So they were shot in HD. Unfortunately, the scenes in the compilation are heavily edited which is a pity. :(

So the question still stands. Is there any point in even trying to make a request - my experience with R18 customer support is pretty poor. I've submitted a number of support questions on a title that wouldn't download and never received a single reply. :rolleyes:

Has there really ever been actual success with anyone requesting something from a studio? Of course that would depend on how many other people request the exact same thing, right?
