They all follow a very similar business model. It's funny because every person PRO Drm in this thread thinks completely different from every owner of those sites. I'm not talking about DRM specifically but the general mentality and thought process regarding members. The important thing to remember is the owners of all those sites make waaaaaaaaay more money than all the PRO Drm people make. I'm not trying to be a dick I'm just stating the facts. Those sites all have very similar business models and it's a proven winner. That should tell you something about what members want.

All advertise on tubes/piracy sites, and vz and vb have whitelabels setup with several of them pulling down 50-100 sales a day from a text link in a menu.

The difference between these guys and the others you listed, even yourself. Is they understand what it means to get eye balls on your content/site. When it comes to ND/BB, they understand it more than anyone.

They still do more traffic than anyone, and they are the most pirated sites online. The most password leaks, the most everything, they ignore webmasters and even members.. They break every rule that everyone in here said you must do..... And yet, still #1...

For them, DRM isn't needed... Eyeballs are.

For people that think piracy is taking away from them, if they feel it does.. then DRM is for you.


My opionion though, you need to pirate your shit more, upload it on video networks, get yourself on social networks, create fan bases all over the world, and get eyeballs on your shit. Get yourself on forums you aren't on, get people talking about you, for you..

But, that's not the subject of this post..
