It's one of the reason's I started looking at the various service providers in the field in March of this year already.
Obviously there will always be illegal tubes/sites which will not follow and hide behind the law, but they will be easier to target by any content owners.

sorry nathan, but you imo you are using this to your advantage to put your competition out of business and the companies that feel obliged to do a rev share with you for you using their content seem to be in the mindset that something is better than nothing..
i liken your model to a superpower that tells third world countries "let us use your weapons to destroy your enemies or we will destroy you"...
i know that you have worked hard to do deals with programs so that you can use their content legally, but that methodology does not make things right..
your company has played a big part in destroying the affiliate model and only time will tell if its successful in the long run..
on the flip side, companies have sold their affiliates down the river for self preservation and although i would expect no less from an industry that prides itself on fucking over other people, i have to say i am disappointed by the quick wave of the white flag..
anyone that does business with any of the programs that has partnered with manwin is a complete idiot and deserves to get what they ultimately will get....
