I am sure there must be an easier way to add hundreds more videos.
I guess that is what farkedup's tool is supposed to do? The sponsor has to cooperate however to provide the data in the correct form I assume which unfortunately, is not something that every smaller sponsor may get around to right away. Otherwise I may have to just hire someone to do cut and paste grunt work to add the hundreds of other videos I want.

Data formats provided by various sponsors is seriously a bitch to deal with BUT I've been coding custom import scripts around all kinds of goofy formats the various sponsors are using.
I'm going to play with some API's for various paysite checkouts. My first revision will likely just be my tube script which only allows the videos to play for paying members then evolve it into other paysite tools and just modify the system as things go along. I believe the core to my CMS is really coming along nicely and can be customized to run about any kind of site you can think of now that the framework is in place.
These sponsor tools though are intended to be exactly what Jim is looking for. I don't have an import setup to toss all of this data into nubiles yet but I might end up adding it.
