That's why you don't just stream it. First off you stream it in a way that it can't be downloaded. Just streaming it "normally" is easy to steal with a couple of clicks with dozens of free softwares.

Then you give them a downloadable version of a lower quality and resolution that is heavily over-watermarked


Now to the rest of you guys who didn't understand what I was saying...I'm pointing out that a members area only has value to it IF it's not completely ripped and available for free everywhere. And no "Twig" that member isn't too stupid to find the stuff. The only stuff in our members area that is out there is OLD stuff. None of the new updates...and the old ones come down just as fast as RYC can dmca them down.

The point is, that there IS something that can be done without waiting on the govt. to do it for you while you go bankrupt. And despite a lot of programs fears...lsuch as the fear that Erasmo expressed...the members actually APPRECIATE the fact that your shit isn't out there all over the web for free. As I said many months ago: Nobody wants a membership that is worthless. And if the entire thing is available everywhere for free...then your membership is just that, worthless. Hope that makes more sense, since I obviously somehow missed communicating the point: Signups and rebills.
