[See the review of Next Door World for a description of the other sites included with Next Door Male.]
Next Door Male is one of a dozen sites that make up the value-priced Next Door World suite. It is a showcase for over 280 of porn's hottest amateurs in almost 400 solo jerk-off videos. These mostly straight, masculine guys soon graduate and play with each other in the companion site Next Door Buddies. Members are provided with a wide range of download and streaming options and very recent videos are in full 1080p high-definition.
Tour
When you first enter Next Door Male, you'll find a large image showcasing the latest hot model. Scroll down and there are thirteen large jpegs of the Latest Updates, followed by twelve images of the Most Viewed movies and eight larger images for Photos. You can view explicit preview clips or images for anything on this page, but the best way to get a mirror tour is to go into the "Movies" area and view an explicit preview clip for any of the videos on the site. Next Door Male scores high points for offering a complete mirror tour that previews every single video.
Usability
Next Door Male has an attractive -- if a bit busy -- design and features smooth navigation throughout. The members' homepage starts off with the most recent updates, the most popular updates and the most recent photos. Click on "Movies" or "Photosets" to get to the full list of either area. A drop-down menu lets you select by actor, category or movie number.
The Men and the Action
Next Door Male is populated with a choice crew of 19- to 26 year-old collegiate guys. There are a few tats and piercings thrown in, but these guys are mostly straight-up young, sexy, and muscular -- without being too huge, muscled, or manscaped.
The solo sessions at NDM are usually divided into three segments within the full-length video: for example, starting on a couch, moving to the shower and finishing on a bed. Along with the classic solo jerk-off, look for some serious self-fingering, dildo play and even a bit of penis-pumping. But the style of these videos is very much "fly on the wall" so don't expect any interviews.
Video Details
Playback quality for the most recent one-third of videos, filmed in HD, is excellent (and amazing for the most recent 15%); older ones are still good quality. Consistently there is excellent light, clear sound, and a nice range of camera angles, close-ups, medium shots and model poses. The all-important cumshots are almost all there.
The more than 380 exclusive videos average 20 minutes in length with a new one added every week. There is no DRM on any of the videos.
Video on this site will stream in a Flash player or download in MP4 and Windows Media formats.
There are several quality choices for MP4 downloads; the best -- just 15% of the total so far -- have a size and bitrate high enough that they will look great on a full-sized TV screen (7,000 kbps; 1920x1080 pixels); the previous 15% are 2,000 kbps, 960x540; older ones, that were not filmed in HD, are 2,000 kbps, 720x480 or 720x400.
All of the Windows Media videos have a 2,000 kbps bitrate and play in a large (720x480 pixel or 720x400) window. These are also available at one smaller size.
The Flash streams play in an embedded player. The 30% of the vids filmed in high-def are very large (960x540 pixels); previous ones are 720x480. The streams will play in your choice of three speeds and sizes. We found buffering to be minimal.
Mac note: Mac users can easily watch the MP4 videos and the Flash streams.
Mobile note: The site's content is easily viewed on its mobile version, included with your membership. (The "Mobile" tab displays the same MP4 videos that you see under the "Download" tab.)
Image and Other Content
The 380 picture galleries average 35 images, the majority of which are digital pictures, with a few video captures thrown in. The lighting and poses in these images is definitely above average.
Summing Up
The exclusive content and good looking amateurs at Next Door Male will appeal to those who like hot, straight guys aged 19-26 who don't have that porn star aura, though interviews with these studs would add more personality. When you consider that you'll get the Next Door World bundle of sites and that the most recent videos are available at an astounding 7 Mbps, 1920x1080p, this site is a great choice.
