How much real damage are Tube and Torrent sites doing?
|
The real damage comes from the content being stolen and then given away. This takes funding from the content producer which results in less content being produced. It's a vicious cycle.
The Tube/Torrent sites themsleves are fine, as long as they are done properly. It's a great business model (kinda why Google bought YouTube).
I'm in the process of building a Tube style site but I plan on limiting the length of the movies posted (2-3 minutes tops), I'm NOT going to allow the general public to upload only program owners and/or producers and all movies will be linked to a relevant site with a referal code.
The TGP/MGP has evolved into the Tube site, end of story.
