Although without having a look this might be what's already being done and i've got the wrong end of the stick.
Point is, if you do it 'nicely' or 'crudely' it still says to me that you are expecting your customers to be thieves. AND it is totally ineffective as it is either gonna be removed through editing as it's only up for a little while, or through the same technology as pirates use to obfuscate tv channel bugs. etc.

What if you bought a digital file of a TV show or film from iTunes and every x minutes it popped up saying DAMIAN BOUGHT THIS.

There would be outrage!
