Review date: July 2012

Sean Cody remains one of the most popular gay porn sites online, and it's no wonder. With a constantly updated mix of cute American amateurs, technically dazzling videography, multiple streaming and download options, and stunning setting on the San Diego coast of Southern California, the site is truly impressive. The only negatives are minor: minimal search, small still images, and no video clips in the tour. But that is all forgivable when balanced against the 1400+ super-sexy videos on Sean Cody.

Tour

The site's tour is straightforward - the entire video index is available for you to look at. For each video there's a description and 12 to 20 video captures as well as a list of the video formats available. But there are no preview video clips. Don't forget to click "About" to get some interesting information about Sean and his models.

Usability

Navigating around Sean Cody is easy because of the simple site design. On the main "Movies" index you get the title (model name/s) and an image from each of the videos, the most recent first. Just click on the pic and you're taken to that individual video page, which describes the shoot and has links to various video options. Lower down on the page are thumbnails for "High Resolution Photos" or "Movie Stills." Searching and sorting options are barebones. The "search" link takes you to a drop-down alphabetical list of model names -- and that's it. A more advanced search and sort feature is way overdue.

The Men and the Action

The majority of Sean Cody men are athletic, collegiate types or young muscle-hunks. Every single one of them is good looking, fit and totally new to porn. While many are straight, a healthy proportion are gay. About half of the new videos are solo and the rest are duos and three-ways. So why do the hottest young men in America peel down and get raunchy for the Sean Cody cameras? We do know they are paid very well, but aside from that they're treated with total respect and encouraged to display their natural talents to the best advantage.

In the solo videos, Sean starts by chatting with the guy to put him at ease and to reveal a bit about him. One of several different settings is the gym, where the guy performs a brief workout. Many of the scenes are shot in a beautifully decorated house, making use of every piece of furniture. These videos include two complete jerk-off sessions. Between sessions there's a brief timeout, often outdoors at the beach or a park, where he chats a bit while relaxing, maybe playing around with a soccer ball or running a quick sprint.

There's more than plenty of hardcore too, and it seems the guys are always really horned-up and into the sex. No one is allowed to just lay there -- they have to fuck and suck in every position imaginable. These also include some chat before or after the scene -- but never during. In early 2012 the site started to add bareback scenes regularly, with the disclaimer that models are vigorously tested for HIV.

Video Details

Sean Cody videos are outstanding quality, not just in terms of the clarity of the playback, but in the highly professional videography: the cameras catch the action from many different angles as the models take several different and often creative positions per shoot. There is a skilled variation of well lit close-up and medium shots so you never feel like you have missed anything -- and almost all the cum shots are shown from two angles.

There are 1410 movies to choose from, typically running from 15 to 20 minutes in length. The site is updated at least three times a week. All videos are full-length, not divided into clips. There are no DRM restrictions, however there is a daily download limit of 5 GB.

Video is available to stream in Flash, or download in Windows Media and Quicktime in four different sizes; there are also mobile options.

The Flash streams and are available in 4 sizes, the largest is 960x540 pixels (the oldest 15% are smaller).

About 60% of the Windows Media vids will download at 2,000 kbps for play in a large 960x540 window. The rest have a maximum of 1,000 kbps, playing in either a 960x540 or 720x480 window.

Mac note: All videos are available for download in Quicktime (MOV) format; about 80% of these have a bitrate of 2,000 kbps and play in a large, 960x540 window.

Mobile note: All video is in M4V format and can be streamed on an iPhone; only these video options will display when viewed with an iPhone, but otherwise the site design is the same as for full-screen viewing.


Image and Other Content

Almost every video shoot is accompanied by 50 to 80 high quality, but quite small video captures (600x325). There are no zip files or slide shows. For the most recent two-thirds of the solo videos you'll also get a handful of high resolution digital photos, around ten pics per set.

Summing Up

Aside from the minor imperfections of search and small still images, Sean Cody is virtually flawless. The site offers an enormous number of excellent quality, frequently updated videos starring an endless parade of America's hottest young amateurs. Highly recommended.
