I know from his sales history with us that biskoppen is a pro who won't do anything stupid.
when I said this :

In the real advertising world (out side of porn) companies would be begging for us to hotlink their videos with their branding on it. It's free advertising.

I failed to mention that in the real advertising world the companies would have one
video that was 30 secs long and not 84 2min clips hijacked from the tour.

That does make a differrence.

But the youporn/youtube thing still stands. They are being hot linked like it's stupid and showing some clips that are 20-50 megabytes in size.
I'd say the ability to grant that kind of bandwidth to affiliates is going to be powerful
thing in the future. And by future I mean in the next comming months.

I don't think we will get thru 2009 without some sponsor providing some kind of easy plug-in massive hotlinking system.

I can tell you of at least one sponsor I know that can afford it with no problem.
Maybe I can code up some kind of system and sell it to them.
