Why are companies making briefs so brief?  Is it to save money on materials and/or to show a lot of skin?  These are not as low cut as many others, but too much for my taste.  They are soft, and the waistband is very comfortable.  There is almost too much material to fight when exiting and entering the opening.  I have found only one brand that I like, but not 100%.  I wish someone made a horizontal opening, like a company did in the past.  Yes, there are 2 or 3 that do, but the quality is poor.
