It's because that wasn't the deal - and - the fact that you're soooo quick to get drama rolling on GFY makes me concerned that you can't be trusted just like her last webmaster. I wouldn't even consider shooting with her while she had her site with him. I spent a lot of money to get that guy to take down free galleries and using content however he pleased. This is why i did the deal like this in the first place. Just because the files are smaller than you release doesn't mean it is not excellent content - Katja seems very happy. She quickly posted a couple of the shots on her MySpace page. Releasing "masters" is not part of any deal I have done since seeing my photos on the cover of an escort magazine with a five page photo layout without my consent - that was the result of trusting a model with masters - NEVER AGAIN.
I was considering giving Katja larger video files and I have emailed her about it - if she can guarantee me that Joe can respect our agreement she will get the larger edited and watermarked files. The last thing I want is to see my work on a free tube site at full broadcast resolution without my watermark because her webmaster had the video and decided to do that with it to get sales.
The deal is between myself and Katja Kassin and not AMA Content anyway. We were already discussing doing another shoot but whatver happens will be directly connected to Joe now and how he handled this. I've been doing trades for years and my reputation for excellent content is solid.

I spend 1000's and 1000's of dollars on content and not a dime from ama or from that donny dude and a few others just because of things just like this!
Drama might be fun to sum but it really isnt that fun to most biz peeps!
