Im Live is a huge live cam site where members can view and chat with experts in many different fields, both adult and non-adult, from computer talk to marriage counseling. There is also an over-18 section, which is where I focused my attention (for obvious reasons).
The ImLive adult live video chat section is divided into more than 10 categories, from chicks alone to threesomes to fetish to lesbian to gays to couples. In total, there are well over 38,000 cams available, but when I was on, there were about 1,300 online.
While cam sites generally allow free public non-nude chat and then payed private chat, things are a little different here. While some of the chicks have a free video chat, others only offer free text chat with no video. I like to be able to see the cam and the model before I spend my money. However, one really nice feature they have is that the first 20 seconds of the chat is free. So if you see that the cam quality isn't good, you can end the session quickly before you get charged anything.
I noticed that for some of the fetish models and pornstars the price got kind of high (I saw a few charging over $5/minute), while many of the solo chicks and even some lesbian couples were going with a $2.80/minute price. Although, the most popular was a $1.98/minute price point.
Although it did vary depending on who I talked to, cam quality was pretty good. The motion was fluid, but the image quality was generally average. If you expand the cam screen it gets bad, so you will want to keep it at a more normal size.
Members also get access to over 57,000 short video promos and recorded shows. The recorded shows cost you credits, though, and the quality isn't very good. There are also over 1,000,000 picture galleries of the models that are in their own section and are easily accessible. They are a combination of profile pics and shots pulled from webcam shows.
As far as the amount of cams, categories and models available, Im Live is quite impressive. Signing up is free, so you can check it out for yourself before making any decisions on buying time. And with so many models offering a low per-minute price you shouldn't have a hard time finding a chick and a cam you like.

That site is a ripoff. They steal from their hosts, they interrupt their sessions to ask them all sorts of stupid stuff while you are still there and you can read everything, they actually tell them to block you while they are chatting with you, the texting sometimes stuck and if you don't have the headphones on, you can't communicate with the hosts, hosts are threatened and bullied by their admins all the time, while you are with them in free chat, they seem to treat them worse than sex slaves in a 3rd world country, as a result hosts are bored and sad. They don't give you any refunds if you decide to stop using their services. A 1.8 USD/min is a lot of money to be treated like rubbish. I had a gorgeous new model between favorites there, some admin starts to harass her in the middle of a free chat, I was preparing to go pvt, eventually they tell her she is not needed and if she doesn't agree to their abusive rules, they kick her out; they used much ruder language, threatening they will give her a big fine. She decided to walk away on them. I was pretty disgruntled by all this and I wanted to go away too, but when I asked a refund, they told me that was impossible, take it or leave it. When I answered saying this was quite unacceptable, they blocked my account. If this is a site to put my credit card details on, sorry, but I don't think so.
This site use to be great , and so many of the models have switched to the great hd webcams .the only proublem is the site now has so many tech issues .Getting dissconnected from hosts rooms or not being able to connect at all on some days .I am more the sure its a site proublem in the video softwear .As all my favorit girls are also complainng about the tech issues .Not possible so many girls on site would all have the same tech proublem,Specially sence a lot of these girls I have been seein for years .The site has gone down hill.Its a shame as they offer the best free credit deals to members of all the sites on the net ,My long time favorite girls are there .I sure hope imlive gets there tech issues sorted out soon.
Have been a member for a couple of months with no problems. Do your homework and chat with the girls first (its free) like any site some cams and girls are good and some aren't worth a crap.
pros of site ,hosts can interact with other hosts . cons ,hosts are only paid 30% and they usually have a high amount of charge backs .taking money back from hosts .they do not protect hosts from rude and abusive members or free guests in the free video viewing area .Host can not block bad visitors
is a site that is not stealing from the studios honest, closed accounts to keep the money, it's a slow platform does not have good video quality and their models are indifferent
i thought it was awesome and most of the girls are gorgeous. i asked one to do anal and she politely said no not into that - and that was ok. they are very nice and want to please. it's not cheap but worth it.
Hey you guys must think that just because a girl is on cam she should be a sex robot .I love the girls at Imlive I think mostly if a costomer treats a girl with respect she will be more then happy to share her goods with you when you want it .I seen plenty of girls give me nudity from the start of a session at ImLive.They are human and like to be treated with some respect.Not as a sex robot.As for there cam quality .They have free video previewing to check out a girls cam before entering privet with her.As all things on the internet do have glitches an errors when i lost credits due to this one time the host and costomer services credited back my account in less then 24 hours .I think lots of these reviews that are bad on this site are from guys that treat the ladies like some object at there command instead of human with feelings.Imlive offers super great deal every time you buy credit they give you free credit.They also recently won the AVN award for best camsite.So before you knock it maybe approach it with a diffrent frame of mind other then what you can get for cheap and fast .Theres plenty on the site for every guys taste.Browse the free rooms to find it .Its worth it .
this site is a ripoff there models are not that hot...well to a men any naked women is hot..but there the girls dont give u what u want & then they charge u so much...& 99% of there "hd"cam models have very bad cams & comparing to other site ive been into imlive have the worst hosts that dont give u what u want & try to wast time in pvt & in free chat they dont know how to make a man hot for them all they say is pvt ...anyway as they said b4 this is a rip off the take ur credits even if u changed ur mind..lets say u wanted to go pvt & ur phone rang after u click go private & u canceled by stop or go back or anything they take ur credits...there is a wating period b4 u go pvt with some models that ur paying for withough even getting any show..they take there time undressing so by the time the show started uve lost all ur credits so...its a very bad site...im never going back there
imlive containe some few hot girls ....99% of its hosts are rude & very unloveble...& its so expencive & its a rip off site...they took my credits & didnt get any minute of private chat & plus when i contact the customer service they reply by add more credits & send a photo of ur id....thats a huge rip off..so i dont recomand anyone to join there...i know im never coming back there hope u all will b smart enough not to get fooled like me...plus there is about 100 site better then imlive...well any site is better in my opeinion
TWO WORDS rip off!!!!!!
This site is a rip off. As mentioned earlier UK members are now charged £1 per credit instead of $1, a rise of some 60%. The credits charged by some hosts are very high too (2.8 credits per min in non adult chat, which is £2.80 or $4.40 per minute!). There are some great hosts on the site but they are also available on other sites for about half the cost, so really there is no reason at all to visit this site.
I really like imlive .The thing I like most about is the girl at any time . can put you in a privet cam session with her.I visited a site camcontacts and was dissapointed the girl dose not have option to put you in privet session with her .You as a costomer have to pay extra for that .I also love Imlive cam quality .whoever said thay have bad cam quality must not visit the site .I love many of the 4 star host there as well 5 star hosts.You can free text chat with them first to get an idea what they like to do .Many american girls there unlike other sites loaded with europeans.You might have to serch for a while to get an American but there are more Americans there then any other site I have visited.I was in video with a girl named LovelyWife2Play and she called me for free phone sex during are privet session. I met her while she was in free video .Yep free video .She goes in there a lot to give guys a free peek and tease of her video sessions.Her and lots of girls do .It showed she and the other girls cam quality was great .I signed up that day for a pay session .I was so impressed wih all the ladies there .I recommend this site to all who want a great time.Rabbits review says there are no pic sets or high res pics thats not true .Most girls have 100 pics to look at plus free videos and a copy of there live sessions to watch.Not only did i see high quality pics there but the cams girls use for live shows was of high quality digital camras
I agree with much of what the reviewer, but the review is nearly five years old and the quality of the cams has improved dramatically since that time. Time for a new review?
I love this site .There are several American girls there performing as well as Asians And Europeans.The cam quality depends on what type of cam the girl is using.Most i have seen use high quality cams .Not basic web cams .The sound is encluded in the video show and many girls will also offer phone with there privet video session no extra charge.There is free promo videos of the girls and many photos you can look at without having to buy them.You buy blocks of time so your not running up a bill.When i asked a girl how she felt about only making 30% her reply was .Its ok imlive has the bst traffic to make up for making such a low percent.Most all the girls i talk to there seem to like it a lot .A happy host makes for a happy costomer .I recommend visiting Imlive
I really like this site, but I've never been on the performer side like some of the reviewers. I particularly like the huge amount of transgendered content. But it can be pricy and choppy at times.
This site is very good at ripping off the customer and the host. They found a way to get more money from the overseas customers. They have to pay 1.58 for 1.00 and none of that goes to the host they just keep it. When I started there the percentae was 35% which was bad to being with, but now its 30%. Their a monopoly, but their site continues to have a high turn over because they cant keep the dec
Since late March they changed their revenue from $ to credits. For EU customers this means instead of their euro being converted, they re paying 1 euro to 1 credit. Probably the same for US customers as well. UK customers are getting 1 GBP for 1,3 credits. So everybody in the EU is getting ripped off since the credit system. As that s not all, the hosts are still being paid out in $, and they lo
the site raised price with 58% for europe visitors. Before 1 credits was $1 and now europeans have to pay $1.58 per credit. I checked with models and they don t get any of that. pretty bad move, they used to be a decent site......
continually was disconnected from site, and very poor streaming video. Dont bother, jasmin or rude are much better
Bad Bad Bad!!! When you sign up, you can only purchase using western union or wire transfer. If you want to use your credit card you need to fax a photo ID. What s up with that???? I bought credits and the webmaster refunded them...It took two days of emails and calling to resolve the issue. The minute I knew my money was back...I cancelled the account. Ladies are excellent. The rest sucks.
Really Poor Support. They offer absolutley NO REFUNDS so dont use this useless website.
