So what I'm saying is I don't want the members who aren't doing this - the 98.7% or something - I don't want them to FEEL like I'm treating them as thieves. LOL if that males sense. "Hey, I used to be able to download the vids, now..." And yes, I plan on giving them a downloadable (highly watermarked and lower quality) version, too.
Just saying it's a concern for some paysites, I would imagine, pissing off their members while trying to protect their shit.

It's all in the presentation of what you're doing. I don't have a big announcement on the site saying "I'm taking preventative measures to keep my stuff from being stolen"
You know what I mean. When I go to my favorite music store to look at new guitars and amplifiers, the staff is super friendly and I enjoy my experience there. Nobody accuses me of possibly wanting to steal anything. And yet, if I go back there at midnight...they have the place locked with an alarm system. I don't get offended by that.
And I don't take it to mean that they consider me a thief.
Most people on the internet these days are well aware of content theft. I'm sure that 99% of my members are smart enough to know what's going on in the world. And since not ONE of them has written me complaining, I'm gonna have to go with actual real world experience over what some people might theorize to you what MIGHT happen.
Reality is I do all the support for CM's site. Hell, I do EVERYTHING. lol And the only emails I get from our members are requests and ideas for scenes. They are FANS. And when they find one of her scenes out there they report it to me. They are anti-thieves if anything. Once you open their eyes to what's happening, they not only don't feel like I'm insinuating that they would steal...they also help me in stopping our stuff from being out there.
