SAN FRANCISCO – NakedSword.com, the industry leader in online gay adult video, returned from the 2005 Internext Show with a record five awards from the Annual Cybersocket Awards and a highly revered nomination in the 2005 XBiz Awards. In addition to winning Best Pay-Per-View Site (both Industry and Surfer’s Choice) for the third consecutive year, it also took home top honors for two of its innovative media sites – WetPalms.com (Best Live XXX Show) and GayPornBlog.com (Best Blog Site). Parent company Cubik Media took home the award Best Web Development Company.

“This caps a truly outstanding year for us,” stated Nakedsword.com President, Tim Valenti. “We’re extremely honored to be presented with this much recognition, both from the industry and adult video consumers.”

NakedSword.com’s success at the Cybersocket Awards comes as no surprise to many of its members – a large number of whom turned out for Cybersocket’s online vote. NakedSword.com is the world’s largest Gay VOD provider with over 3,500 titles from major studios including Falcon, Hot House, Lucas Entertainment, COLT, Rascal and Titan Media. Host and Rascal/Channel 1 Releasing president Chi Chi LaRue was on hand to congratulate Valenti as were John Rutherford from COLT Studio, Steven Scarborough from Hot House and Brett Drysdale from Jet Set Productions.

“No one has the breadth or quality of titles that NakedSword.com does,” explained Michael Stabile, co-editor of Gay Porn Blog. “Not only do they actively pursue high-budget releases from the major industry players, but they also work with smaller niche studios and amateur producers to really cater to individual member tastes – from kink to twink.”

Valenti is not content to rest on his laurels, however. In addition to producing its own content (it ventured into production last year with the highly successful gay porn soap Wet Palms, in conjunction with Jet Set and the also-nominated Tim & Roma Show webcast), NakedSword.com plans to debut a re-engineered mega-site this spring with increased titles and viewing options.

“We’ve been making adult video available online for nearly a decade now -- I don’t know if we can ever top the success tonight,” admits Valenti with a wink. “But we’re certainly going to try!”

NakedSword.com has been a leader in gay adult streaming video since 1997. Its innovative membership model allows users unlimited access to its 3,500 online video library, featuring full-length titles from over 100 studios including Falcon, Rascal, Colt, Titan Media, Hot House, Lucas Entertainment and Jet Set.
