While it may be tempting to surreptitiously record a private show without paying the extra fee by filming the show on your monitor or using screen recording software, this is a big no-no and could cost you up to $150,000 in compensation to the model.

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act in the US makes it illegal to share, sell or rent content without the copyright owner's permission. In this case, the cam model is the copyright owner - not the user who's paying for the show. So whatever you do, don't be tempted to sneakily film a show without either first getting permission from the model or by bypassing using the platform's recording features.

How To Record A Private Show

All of the above listed sites let you legitimately and legally record a paid-for private show. Recording a show is an option that's only available when it's an exclusive session between you and the model. And the sites won't let you download the shows, rather they're stored in your online profile at the relevant site.

The first thing you need to do when you find a model on one of these cheap cam sites that facilitates show recordings is to check that the host is willing to have their performance recorded. Not all of the rooms have a recording option, even if it's a perk of the site.

At CamSoda, Stripchat, or Chaturbate, if a room has show recording capabilities all you have to do is start a private show and select the record option and you're then already making your own home-style movie. And, even better than that - these sites all offer FREE shows. Once you've got your show captured online - you simply go into your site profile and can watch it as many times as you want for no extra cost.

At Flirt4Free and ImLive, you can record your low-cost private show if the model gives permission. Like the other sites, you simply enter a paid-for private session and select the recording option and everything is now captured for posterity. However, these two sites do implement a surcharge in order to access your personal cam movie. Flirt4Free lets you access them at no extra cost, for a week. After that, you'll need to pay in order to unlock them. ImLive charges a fee in order to re-watch it. Once you pay - you get unlimited access for 72 hours, only. If you want to watch them after that period is over - you'll need to pay again.

Private Show Prices

The following table shows at a glance how much the average and cheapest per minute rate for a 1on1 cam session is at each site, whether it'll cost you extra to view your recording and if webcam to webcam usage is included in the rate.

How To Get FREE Credits/Tokens

Before starting any recordable show you'll need to stock up on site credits/tokens. Fortunately, several of the above sites hand out FREE credits/tokens if you know how to get a hold of them.

CamSoda: If you purchase a premium membership subscription for a month you'll get 200 FREE tokens the first time you upgrade your level.

Flirt4Free: All new members receive 120 FREE credits when they link their account to a credit card (no purchase necessary).

Chaturbate: Like CamSoda, Chaturbate gives out 200 FREE tokens the first time you upgrade your account to that of a premium member.

ImLive: This budget premium cam site gives out 50 FREE credits to new members who verify a credit card at the platform.

Stripchat: If you sign-into Stripchat as a registered member (membership is free) you have a chance of winning 50 FREE tokens. Every hour the site gives out 50 tokens to 10 online users who have verified their email address.

Conclusion

When it come to recording a private show, all these sites have great options, but only the freemium ones (CamSoda, Stripchat and Chaturbate) offer it as an included perk in a private session. At Chaturbate not many of the models feature a show recording option, whereas at CamSoda and Stripchat, free recordable shows are far more prevalent. Stripchat even features a dedicated search category on the homepage that brings up only those rooms that offer a free recorded momento of your private performance.

The premium sites make you pay to re-watch your own movie, but considering they also give out free credits to new members, you can always use these freebies to access your recorded shows and it won't end up costing you any more out of pocket. 

CamSoda always features a slew of performers who don't only feature a recorded show button you can select to preserve the upcoming attraction, but many of them actively encourage you to record your 1on1 time with them. Just remember - it's for your eyes only.
