In Canada, Copyright by default is owned by the cam site she works for, not her, and definately not for the person who paid for the show. The cam model owns nothing UNLESS otherwise specified in an agreement.

The chat model licenses her image, likeness, screen name and performance and is paid by the cam site who for all intents and purposes, also "directs" the performance (ie, work for us by getting naked and providing sexual fantasies via webcam) including all rights to future use of those shows unless otherwise stated in a model release. (IE: No model release, the cam site owners everything, she owns nothing).

The customer who pays for the chat show pays for the one-time-only license to view that single performance. Recording it even for personal use might be against the TOS of most cam sites and is definately against the TOS and COPYRIGHT to redistribute.

The same also applies to graphics designers who are employed at web design firm for example. The company, not the individual, owns all copyright on the images and artwork created.
