Yet another SOLUTION TO TUBE SITES
 

obviously quantity is winning over quality right now ( kind of )

So heres an idea.

A central company that hosts a database of flv's from all the sponsors. So all major sponsors submit their flv's to one place for tube sites to hotlink, this would give "legal" tube sites tons and tons of videos to work with. Tube sites must apply for a FREE license to use the flv's for their tube site. tube sites that are not in compliance dont get to use the huge database.

You could either charge the sponsors a fee to host their flv's or charge the tube sites a small license fee to use the database.

At the very least affiliates are asking already for direct flv lists amyways and sponsors are providing them but in varying formats , this would make it easier for everyone.

So a smart tube tgp gallery builder thingamajigger.

There are already a couple things going on like this...

you have smart thumbs with stxt that has a XML format for sponsors. Think smart sponsors system with hosted flv content. I'm not sure how the uptake is going, I know we at www.nubiles.net built their first XML feed and support it. Every sponsor should get on board with this. Just contact the smart script guys for the xml details.

You also have my script, http://tubescript.nubiles.net/ and a list of sponsors who support the dump - http://tubescript.nubiles.net/sponsors.php

Any sponsor can get on board as well by contacting me, or just look at that page above and bust out the dump format :)

well if you roll the whole thing into one ball of wax you would end up with some generic looking tube sites. Content is key so merely providing shitloads of content seems to be winning right now. Making a database and then let the tube site programmers choose how to deploy the content keeps everyone unique.

We're doing this too for TEVS webmasters. We're adding wmv/mpg and flv hosted videos.

We have something really nice cooking atm... I'll announce it in a few days...

there are better ways to do that.... working on it..

i'm doing the same thing, but i'm only allowing illegal tube site owners to access the db...

hit me up on icq when you have a min smokey :)

:thumbsup i seem to remember something about this. Same basic idea but i think having the clips hosted in one central place makes it easier to regulate who gets to use them

lol marketsmart haha :D
