As the new AOV channels have been on the air a few weeks now I thought I would review the main premium adult channels.

Viewers Choice - Eden - has a short clip channel ($1.99 month on Rogers)previewing upcoming movies and has the latest/highest quality movies in Canada. From Vivid, Wicked and Adam 7 Eve.

TMN Excess Channel - Wed-Sat has two double X movies per night. Plus other short series such as Family Business. Usually of a high quality. These are cut versions of older Eden movies.

SexTv - Chum limited station ($2.99 month) after 10pm to 6am has R rated erotic material. Movies and documentaries. In this time slot resemble PlayboyTV of 5 years ago.

PlayboyTV - the only U.S. based service allowed in Canada ($12.99 month on Rogers with TMN linkage) is generally a mixture of R rated short programming, live Night Calls and X Rated Directors Cut movies at night. The difference between Playboy's X rated movies and TMN's double X is TMN allows anal to be shown. Playboy does not. Lack of new programming has been a problem the last few months, but this is supposed to be corrected in January.

Hustler - XXX mainly non-scripted gonzo programming 50% from Hustler's vast high quality library. Other programming from Sin City, High Society and others. ($19.95 a month or $29.95 a month combo with TEN).

TEN - XXX mixture of Gonzo programming, classic movies (ginger Lynn, John Holmes, Ron Jeremy), other features and fetish movies (smoking babes, pregnant women, Transexuals).

AOV Movie Channel - XXX Mixture of Features (Wicked - Jenna Jamieson movies) and high quality gonzo. Also some British porn as well. This station has a glossy look to it and its movies. ($19.95 a month or $29.95 in combo with AOV clips).

AOV Clips - XXX 5min to 20 min clips of various movies mainly gonzo with a similar look as TEN.

AOV also offers a Gay service, Viewers Choice Adam and Pridevision is hardcore porn for a lot of its schedule. I don't subscribe to those, but if someone else does please add your comments.

TEN Broadcasting is working on carriage of Red Light District (Gonzo), H2 (Hustler Europeon), Ten Clips (short segments of movies) and TEN Gay Channel over the next couple of months.

Surprisingly right now I would rank AOV Movie Channel as number 1 because I like movies/programming with a glossy look. Hustler would be a close second. But each station has its advantages.

the verdict so far

After reviewing the AOV combo pack (AOV Movie Channel and AOV Clips) at $29.95 on Rogers versus the Hustler/TEN combo pack at $29.95 on Rogers also for the full month of December. I have to say that both combos resemble each other greatly (meaning very much emphasis on gonzo/less on story line big budget features).

My recommendation after one full month is to go with the Hustler/Ten package. As this package has more selection, has the Hustler brand name productions, has less repeats and has a more established schedule website.

I will keep both packages for 1 more month and make my final decision, but after about a month/half of viewing Hustler/Ten wins.

PlayboyTV announcing lots of new programming starting Jan 1st. For $12.99 month on Rogers, looks like a keeper.

Well I wanted these channels when i heard they were launched and ExpressVu is yet to carry them. Looks like cable is finally getting the edge on satellite. Annoys me as I have 4 receivers in my place and now if ExpressVu does not bother to carry AOV,TEN,Hustmer then I am SOL. They may carryn them down the road but i think that will be in like a year or two. Seems they are not too keen on adding special channels, I think only worrying about ethnic channels. May have to bite the bullet and sell my Expressvu receivers soon.

...Seems they are not too keen on adding special channels, I think only worrying about ethnic channels...

Could they not compromise a little and carry ethnic-erotic content?

 

[Phil]

But moaning and screaming are the same in any language!

 

[JohnnyG]

Yeah but the accent is different

 

[Jenna JamesonRulez]

Just imagine the accent in those porn flicks...would make you wanna tape em and play em over and over just to listen to the accent. I am all for it ethnic porn all the way.

 

[dmccorm140]

If the H2 channel (Hustler Europeon Channel)ever gets broadcasting you will get your wish.

 

[dmccorm140]

National Post had article in saturday Paper about porn explosion in Canada caused by the cRTC. Maybe Canwest is still upset about the CRTC ruling in favour of SpikeTV.

I just purchased the regular Rogers PVR. So in my living room with my 3 TV's I can now watch 4 channels at once. Great for the Sports Pak once baseball starts and Porn. I can watch Hustler, TEN, AOV Movie Channel and AOV Clips all at the same time!!! I think i'm in Rogers control centre. ;-).

I have no final verdict on the best of these channels but my rankings are:

1) AOV Movie Channel - due to best quality programming overall.
2) Hustler - hottest/Nastiest stuff.
3) TEN for wide assortment and Kink
4) AOV Clips for short scenes from movies.

Hustler Channel and Red Light District

I don't think AOV is any good at all. I think they pulled their schedule because it didn't match up with their actual broadcasts. hmmmm. Hustler is always available in the guides.

As for Hustler and Red Light District word is out they are both available now on Star Choice as well as Rogers (goodbye Bell, please stuff Venus where the sun don't shine). I use Star Choice and I'm glad with that.

AOV is kinda no name and not really programmed very well from what I saw when I had them on in my condo. The quality was very iffy at times. The AOV clips channel looks like a bunch of pirated clips off the internet! I'm sorry but I ain't buying that.

For my money and my two cents worth it is Hustler TV and Red Light District TV. I'm glad to finally get Red Light District which is common knowledge will soon be available on Star Choice as well as Rogers
