In reality Manwin - and, apparently, anyone with a backbone and a lawyer - can take full length videos from anywhere and make them freely available on their own sites - even in member's areas.

These people do not need to be negotiated with. They need to be stopped. It has to end. It may not happen anytime soon - but it will end.

"Thumbprint" technology only counts when this scenario comes into play:

1) Personal computers have touch screens - not too far in the future.

2) A horny surfer signs up for an adult website.

3) The subscriber has to touch his thumb to his monitor to gain access to the site that he legitimately paid for. The surfer can download that video and do whatever he wants with it. When someone else tries to play that video, there will be a little red box in the bottom right corner - example given - that they have to press their thumb against. No match - no play.

There is no going going back, there is only going forward. What is happening now is a nice cashgrab - soon enough that will be gone.
