    2257, what are the VOD & DVD sites gonna do, since they don't hold IDs and releases?

    Are the studios going to give all those out?

    Seems like the VOD sites will have to catch up with the studios to get it. Or work out a way to easily access the 2257's when nesscessary

      Perhaps they are not concerned with it because their attorneys have read the proposed regulations and understand them?

        Thats a question thats hot on my mind right now. I hope there will be an easy answer.

        But most of the company's like "Legend" buy the rights to the videos, They will have to get with the providers for everything that internet webmasters would need.

          *sigh*

          Proposed regulations: Section 75.2 paragraph (D)

          "(d) For any record created or amended after [insert date 30 days after publication of the final rule in the Federal Register], all such records shall be organized alphabetically, or numerically where appropriate, by the legal name of the performer (by last or family name, then first or given name), and shall be indexed or cross-referenced to each alias or other name used and to each title or identifying number of the book, magazine, film, videotape, computer-generated image, digital image, picture, or other matter (including but not limited to Internet computer site or services). If the producer subsequently produces an additional book, magazine, film, videotape, computer-generated image, digital image, or picture, or other matter (including but not limited to Internet computer site or services) that contains one or more visual depictions of actual sexually explicit conduct made by a performer for whom he maintains records as required by this part, the producer shall add the additional title or identifying number and the names of the performer to the existing records and such records shall thereafter be maintained in accordance with this paragraph."



          It's called a GRANDFATHER CLAUSE!

                I asked my attorney about your grandfather clause theory back when these new regs were first proposed. He doesn't think what you're saying is going to hold up.

                However it's a moot point anyways, this thing will be tied up in court for years.

                  I think they'll start prosecuting as soon as it's legal for them to do so.

                  They don't build a task force of attorneys to sit around and do nothing. I'm sure they already have many targets in mind. Just waiting for the OK.

                    My grandfather clause theory?

                    Yeah..Because I wrote that into the proposed regs and all.


                    OK. I suppose that the grandfather clause presented in Section 75.2 of the current law is my theory as well?

                    "(a) Any producer of any book, magazine, periodical, film, videotape, or other matter that contains one or more visual depictions of actual sexually explicit conduct made after November 1, 1990 shall, for each performer portrayed in such visual depiction, create and maintain records containing the following:"

                          Which will be YEARS.

                          The FSC is going to file suit and get an injunction. The regs will be enjoined (unenforcable) until the case in court is over.

                          Regardless of which side wins the first court battle, there will be an appeal and the enjoinment will continue until the case is heard at the next level.

                          All of this takes years. I don't have a crystal ball but the odds of us successfully getting an injunction are probably 95%.

                              Yeah I remember that one.

                              So here is a thought... considering how hostile things may get, if required to, how would you prove, on demand, that XYZ photo was made prior to the date the exemption ends?

                              Err... well I know how YOU would prove it Aaron, you would just whip out the model agreement. But others may not be able to do that because they may be a few steps down from the original source (and person holding the model agreement).

                              I guess I'm asking... will they also require that you can prove, on the spot, that the content is exempt if that is what you intend to claim.

                                  I've been through this. When the first big "scare" came through, we freaked and started to call the studios, this was when i was with the VOD company.

                                  That video side of the biz mixing with the internet side of the biz is a fragile line anyhow. The studios are not going to be very anxious to give out those records.

                                  To make it simple, and not get everybody into debates, I would say at the very least it is going to be difficult for the mid level revenue generators to get those records.

                                  I can see AEBN and Gamelink getting them for the type of volume they do, but I am sure that the studios are going to weigh the man hours to the amount of revenue they make from each site.

                                            Your 70's and 80's porno is and has been exempt from 2257 since the start of 1990's.

                                            What AaronM is pointing out is that when the new ammendments to 2257 go live, there will also be a new created-prior-to exemption date covering those new ammendments.

                                              That video side of the biz mixing with the internet side of the biz is a fragile line anyhow. The studios are not going to be very anxious to give out those records.

                                              To make it simple, and not get everybody into debates, I would say at the very least it is going to be difficult for the mid level revenue generators to get those records.

                                              I can see AEBN and Gamelink getting them for the type of volume they do, but I am sure that the studios are going to weigh the man hours to the amount of revenue they make from each site.

                                              And if a company like AEBN gives me content to use on my site then they are required to hand me over the records. I mean I HAVE to comply with 2257 and if it's their content and they are giving it to me to use well then I'm entitled to the records. I don't think the feds are going yo buy "They wouldn't give me the 2257 info, sirs"

                                                Yes I know that. My point is if I have 70's or 80's porn on my site or anime no worries anyways. Man I just just funning around. Jeez.

                                                  Or they will only hand over old content... It is probably going to change how we do business.

                                                    How do they define "sexually explicit conduct"

                                                    I know it may sound like a stupid question... but some people say nudity is porn, I say its just nudity.

                                                      Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but doesnt that grandfather clause only apply to the proposed filing and cross-referencing system associated with these new rules? i.e. you dont need to go back and make sure everything is cross referenced from the beginning, just from now on. BUT, you still need all the info on site from 1990, just not filed and referenced as laid out in that paragraph.

                                                        yeah, but aebn doesn't relicense anything to the best of my knowledge. the studios would never really allow that. are you talking about affiliates of aebn that use their "samples" of the studios movies to make money? i.e. fhgs from aebn?

                                                        the vod companies would be required to have the hard copy records on file from the studios.

                                                        lets see what pans out though. still to early to really know.

                                                          Kind of makes you think they made they law deliberately vague doesn't it.

                                                              So here is a thought... considering how hostile things may get, if required to, how would you prove, on demand, that XYZ photo was made prior to the date the exemption ends?

                                                              Err... well I know how YOU would prove it Aaron, you would just whip out the model agreement. But others may not be able to do that because they may be a few steps down from the original source (and person holding the model agreement).
                                                              It's called computer forensics....Say you print a bomb threat out on your computer and mail it....There is a tag put in the document so that it can be traced to you and it also gives a time of creation.

                                                              If a piece of paper can be traced, don't you think that any other computer file could be traced back to you?
