Paul, what you come up with makes sense to producers, but your preaching to the wrong audience here because most are webmasters who don't produce their content but get it from their sponsors. (or they just grab it from other sites).

If you are a producer you need to make relatively more profit because you have higher costs. Webmasters hardly have any costs. They need a server and the book html for dummies and that's about it. Us producers need a studio, models, flights, equipment, etc etc.

For a webmaster to get proper sales, he needs traffic and good material. For us producers to get proper sales, we need traffic, and we need to PRODUCE good material.

A webmaster can be happy with 10,000 hits per day, and 2 sign-ups. He'll be making profit that day.

A producer needs at least 10 sign-ups a day to keep going and 20 sign-ups a day to continue growing.

The way I see it is, that producers don't only need traffic, but also quality, unique material. As for the rapidshare problem:

Producers need to protect their content. The following things are already done by some of us:

1) Stop the sharing of passwords completely using proper scripts. Most content theft is done through shared passwords, because content thieves make it a sport not to pay for anything. They will hardly ever pull their credit cards, download your content, and upload it to Rapidshare. It happens but not a large scale. I'm now using scripts that make sharing of passwords by two or more people impossible. (anything interested in this message me)

2) Embed user-ID in downloaded file and/or use watermarking technology to put user ID inside video-footage. If you find your footage on Rapidshare you download it, then you know which of your members is uploading your content, and you ban him to avoid further damage.

3) Use a service like removeyourcontent.com to have your content removed from Rapidshare, torrents etc

4) Some ban access to their sites from countries like Russia and Ukraine and proxy servers completely. I'm not doing this because I get a few Russian paying members from time to time and haven't caught them uploading my content yet. In my member sections usage of proxy servers is not possible though.

If all producers would start using these methods today, things would get very difficult for the Rapidshare, PayPal and torrent mafia.
