Sure that should ALWAYS be part of it. You cant stop no, but you can dissuade. The problem right now is members areas are open floodgates. For a 4.95 trial someone gets to be a hero to countless people by uploading to tube sites and sharing forums. What punishment do those that upload content they dont own get? None. Why arent they worried? No way it can be traced. Putting a marker on the content that allows us to see who shared the content makes them accountable. Sure there will be people grabbing with stolen credit card numbers etc etc. You cant stop it completely we all know that, but we can slow it down to a smaller flow. Make strong tos's for members areas. Get together with the major processors and setup a blacklist. People caught sharing get blacklisted, and cant buy more memberships to any of the sites. This would of course benefit the processors bottom line too.
If the members areas are left wide open like they are now you may as well just give up and put your members areas public and put up dating and webcam ads on there to make money off your content. Sooner people figure this out the better. Enough fucking around with trying to shut down the tubes and torrent sites etc. You cant and wont do it. You will get some small victories, but that will be it. The content will pop up on another site, and eventually it will end up on sites that cant be touched due to where they host and live. There is money in it so people will continue to do it. The only way to stop it, is to stop the flow of new content. Once that system is in place and members areas are secure it will make much more sense to go after what is already out there.
SO who is going to step up and do this? Ill be glad to discuss my ideas on this subject to anyone who is interested, or has the resources to make something like this happen. Stop with the crying and whining over spilled milk, and figure out how to stop spilling it.
