On my last visit I noticed some guys selling DVDs on the beach at Jomtien. Has any one any experience of the quality, or are these guys scammers? It appears that there were some recent titles too.

If you're talking about movies and TV series and not porn your best bet is to go to a DVD shop like Smile Entertainment on the 4th floor of Tukcom. The owner is very pleasant and helpful. If he doesn't have want you are looking for in stock (there is a big selection), the odds are he will be able to get it for you within a day or two. Quality always excellent in my experience and the price always 100 Baht (with the loyalty card you get a free DVD for every five bought).
For "normal" movies I go to a guy who has a small shop in the twice-weekly market off Pattaya Tai - all the latest releases and never a dud one from him (he will play them for you before you buy so you can check quality).
Re. porn DVDs on the beach, once again the quality is usually first rate - and I have never had a problem bringing back the very rare dud copy and getting it changed for a new one.
"The fruits of peace and tranquility... are the greatest goods... while those of its opposite, strife, are unbearable evils. Hence we ought to wish for peace, to seek it if we do not already have it, to conserve it once it is attained, and to repel with all our strength the strife which is opposed to it. To this end individual[s]... and in even greater degree groups and communities are obliged to help one another... from the bond or law of human society." [Marsilio dei Mainardini (c.1275-1342), Defensor Pacis]
I didn't see any DVD sellers on my last visit to Jomtien. On previous visits I bought a few "real" movies. Not exactly a scam but the movies were generally bootleg, of varying quality, often quite poor. Very recent films will almost certainly be bootleg. The sellers would generally be willing to replace a copy that was actually defective--wouldn't play- but not one that was just poorly recorded.
DVD sales in general are quickly fading out with the advent of streaming services such as Kodi, as for porn there are so many free sites such as pornhub and xxvideo just to name a couple.

RELIABLE SOURCES who have purchased several such DVDs tell me that the porn DVDs sold on the beach often contain the same videos that can be downloaded for free off the internet. So firstly check if the pictures on the cover look familiar (says my source).
They are about the same quality, so if you happen to want to watch such DVDs on holiday, a purchase is well worth a punt.
Sadly, I don't see high quality HD or 4K videos of cute smooth asian twinks for sale anywhere. Do all the bootlegs mean there is no money to be made by shooting such material ? One would think HD is made for porn.

Exactly - I mean it wasn't called Hard DIck Porn for nothing !.......I mean that IS what HD stands for isn't it !?Originally Posted by goji
If you're looking for the DVD guy I can tell you that he stores a large supply in / under the table at the toilets ( or did at least) so someone there may be able to grab his attention as he restocks for you after each sales walk.
Just remember always of course that no matter where you're from your luggage could well be checked on the way home and you may have to explain said DVD's or memory sticks that you purchased and I'm not sure where you're from but I know the UK ( and I think the USA) now have some quite strict laws about possession of "hardcore" porn - and Im guessing some of those videos just might fall into that category now amazingly.
1 The UK laws only ban possession of "Extreme Porn". According to Wikipedia:
An act threatening a person's life
An act which results (or is likely to result) in serious injury to a person's anus, breasts or genitals
An act which involves (or appears to involve) sexual interference with a human corpse
A person performing (or appearing to perform) an act of intercourse (or oral sex) with a Non-Human animal (whether dead or alive)
So normal sex isn't going to be an issue. Fisting probably would be, so I suppose it may be prudent to check any DVDs in your hotel room.
2 I have never been stopped going through Heathrow airport and cannot remember seeing anyone being stopped, although it must happen.

Perhaps there should be a category of "quite ordinary" porn? I've noticed an increasing incidence of pissing into a guy's mouth - so not your average golden shower - in the latest crop of porn available online. Fisting with a human hand is OK, but with a Coca Cola bottle is not? There's always that scene in the Madonna documentary of thirty years ago where she demonstrates how she performs oral sex by using a coca cola bottle. Fingering of the anus is quite ordinary fare these days, it would seem, often in conjunction with rimming. Does anyone else have ideas about quite ordinary porn?
