Someone will may do just that. Though one neat little thing you can do with streaming in general is embed the customers username onto the video so when it is stolen you know exactly who copied and put it out there. I say, since you have that consumers data, you sue the dog piss out of each and every one of them. One at a time. Any member that is going to rip me off I would not have a problem suing them. Mainstream does it, one person at a time. So should we.

We've sued a couple websites (pay sites who were stealing our content) already and won. Copyright violation is still a crime and if you have a US based presence and US based assets, I'll be coming for them. Most of the tubes have removed our content after asking them to. Yes, our content is still out there but we are getting a little bit of a handle on it and have even collected some money.

For sure I know this and I also know they are not suffering from it. I've also heard that one of them may be about to go 100% encrypted streaming. With that said, I'm going to bet my money on the companies that rake in millions of dollars and set the trends in the industry. Every single one of you will follow what someone of that size will do. You follow them from your tour designs to the style of content you shoot to their billing price and everything in the middle. That's the way every industry is. The big guys lead, the little guys follow, but only laughing at how the big guys plan to do things. Then they get in line with the rest of the little guys.

Like I said, it's not easy and it's not cheap. This is where the wanna be porn people get moved to the side so you can watch or look for new work while the serious companies move forward and protect what is theirs. By the sounds of most of your comments, you will be watching others do the work for you.
