We already have the records, the extra work that would be required would be a much larger burden the larger you are.

Yes but you are forgetting, they have the money and the manpower to be able to comply. They also tend to shoot their own content or have good relationships with the people whom shoot their content.

So they "can" get the required id's and so on with out too much hassle. So it becomes a point of just updating their old stuff. Sure that's tedious and might cost them some money, however once they are up to date it's not going to be hard for them to just add this as "one more thing to do".

Affiliates on the other hand or smaller mom and pop operations don't have the money or the man power to do the same in most cases. Nor will affiliates be able to easily get a hold of the required records.

This is nothing more than a way to put the "little guys" out of the biz so the govt can easier regulate the bigger companies. The bigger companies might not like the idea of the regulations, but they do it know will reduce competition, which means they make more money in the long run.
