They act like they can, they through parties, sponsor events... But a $15k server or $4k lease plus per stream feeds is much more than most programs can afford to pay.
Including myself, no way I'm spending that much money to protect something I know brands my sites, brings in more traffic, and exposure to thousands who would have never found/visited me because they don't surf within the tgp-adult-traffic bubble.

I have floated this a few times, but Ill do it again.
Sooner or later someone big in the industry will put up the cash. Ive said this before. Someone that has an upsell would be VERY VERY smart to develop new drm techniques that surfers will be able to adapt to easier. The person doing that should offer this tool FREE to any paysite willing to have an ad running in their members area for the non compete upsell.
Cant make this tool cost much, or it should be free. Make it simple so any members area can easily deploy it. Instead of wasting time trying to herd cats and trying to stop what is already released in the wild, work on keeping anything new secure. The ONLY way to stop piracy is to adopt industry wide new secure ways of content distribution.
I dont care how many piracy groups you form or whatever. You wont stop it that way. Like trying to catch fleas with a pair of chopsticks.
Industry wide new secure content distribution methods.
Lets say a company with the initals AFF that has shit loads of money. All the face they may of lost could be regained awfully fast for getting something like that developed. Giving it away free for just a members area upsell.
