Does Top Shelf Studs deliver what it promises on the outside?
"Top Shelf Studs features the ultimate in stud on stud action. Packed tight with the best of the best studs. Gay Sex Videos of Hung Studs fucking other hot muscle boys..."This is what is offered on the front page of the site, and is pretty much what you get inside. The site does boast of over 20 updates per week, but I think they have to be referring to their sister and bonus sites as well, as there is not that much content on this site itself.
What's good about Top Shelf Studs? What needs improvement?
I believe this site gets the award for most confusing, and unnecessarily busy layout of any site I have reviewed. The member's page is filled with menus for bonus sites, reality sites, polls, ads, and god knows what else. The page is so busy I had to click on three wrong links before I figured out where the content actually was! In short, the layout is a navigational nightmare!Once I found the content, I was pleasantly surprised. The models are smoking hot, and the videos are quite entertaining. They are available for streaming in either a Flash or WMV format. Both streams started quickly, and the Flash player allowed you to skip forward or back, however, the video seemed much more "choppy" than the WMV option. The videos can also be downloaded for future viewing. (Be careful, as the number of scenes you can download vary based on your subscription type and length.) With the exception of some VERY cheesy dialogue, the videos are very erotic, and of good quality. There are even a few in HD available for viewing.
The videos are all duo scenes, with most of the models being slim to jockish white guys. There may be some solo scenes, but I did not see any. The action is your standard suck and fuck, with the obligatory interview on some of them. I would like to see a bit more variety in the types of action shown. More rimming, kissing, and perhaps some light fetish play would be nice to see.
Each update has a handful of pictures with it as well. The pics are taken at the time of the video shoot, and are very good quality. They are available for download either singly, or in a zip file. Yeah! I think there is a slideshow option as well, but you need to download a certain slideshow program in order to use it.
The amount of content on this particular site is a bit underwhelming. There are only 3 pages of videos to view. The site makes up for it by offering access to a number of bonus sites. As I didn't view any of those, I cannot comment as to the amount or quality of their content.
How is Top Shelf Studs unique?
Most of the models are new to me, but I think they appear on some of the sister sites. The content seems to be original, but I have no way of knowing if it shows up on the other sites or not.What do paying users recieve for their money?
Members receive access to all video and photo updates, as well as a number of bonus sites. Considering the download limits, confusing layout, and the small amount of actual content on this site, I would spend my money elsewhere.Other GayGeek reviews of Top Shelf Studs

Top Shelf Studs is one of several sites in the Male Spectrum line-up. The site promises nearly 400 hours of porn. There isn't that much porn on Top Shelf Studs, but joining the site provides access to the whole Male Spectrum family of sites, so the claim is accurate. Read full review
