6.0/ 10
XBIZ is a trade news site covering the adult industry, with articles, opinion pieces and profiles on business, retail, tech, legal topics and events. Pages load cleanly with no visible ads on the first screen, few trackers, and a layout that works well on phones, though main content can take a moment to appear. Its rating is capped because clicking a link opened a popup during our visits.
