They never have asked me for model ID's and releases. Could anyone imagine the work that would be required to sort, check, and compile model releases and ID's for every upload every day?
I am pretty sure you just need to prove who you are to clips4sale and sign some paperwork. From there on out you upload and post.
Lastly to the original poster who may be anti watermark. Do you at least add a logo/mark at the start and copyright info at the end of videos? I know you used the argument that mainstream doesn't use watermarks on purchased media and stuff. They do however add stuff to beginning and end of their videos.

Ok, but isn't the sale of stolen property illegal? Even if you don't know it's been stolen? This isn't the same a tube site, who gives it away for free, the stolen product is being sold.
I am sure C4S knows who was selling it illegally, their address, probably even their SS# (if US). Shouldn't it be reported to authorities, or wouldn't that make them an accessory to the crime?
