Full disclosure?.you market it as fully exclusive material, and this is how it is kept exclusive?

There is a much higher level of control and tracking with drm technologies, and this can be marketed to the customer this way as well

You can see what the customer watched, the time he watched it, where he watched it from, how often he watched it, his computer configuration, etc

Imagine releasing all of your movies on kazaa. The customer downloads a 500 meg file, attempts to watch it and when he clicks on it, it takes him to a purchase page or a site tour with a special affiliate code.


It addresses intentional copying and redistribution quite well. Certainly something worth trying.

Considering how much is misrepresnted in this industry on the join pages and laughable "terms of service" it's not only a potential chargeback nightmare, but legal action territory when you charge people for content and then disable whatever portion they have kept for "personal use".

All the customer has to do is say he didn't see the disclosure.

Looks like more fun for the lawtards and Visa/MC.

-> $$GG money GG$$ <-
