The only problem with it is the part where you wrote "The only way to "rip" your stream is to have a screen capture program record full playback of your move. Impossible to prevent that!" That's a very weak Achilles heel to the whole 'solution.' It means essentially, YES your videos can still be pirated. And once *anyone* does it, they have a pirated version of the video which they can use to propagate tubes, torrents and other p2p media exactly the same way they would have if they had downloaded it. The basic problem is that you only need 1 competent thief and all the incompetent ones get access to whatever he stole exactly the same way as if they stole it.
then watermark your streams with the user's username, IP etc - this was discussed in the thread. It's impossible to stop a screen grabber from ripping your streams, but you can deter it perhaps
