Newbie questions about content from a newbie

Hello, everyone,

I want to buy content for my new pay site. I am quite new in the issue of content licensing and would like to get some feedback from you veteran webmasters/mistresses.

First, what kind of documents should I keep for tax purpose? I don't have a company, it's just me. I think I can write off the content cost from the income. But what should I keep for record? I buy content through PayPal or credit card. Does the confirmation emails work?

Then, what about license? Do I need to sign it and mail it back to the content sellers? Will they sign it too and mail it back to me? Do I have to do it every time I buy a new set? I know Reyko gives a pdf file with licensor's signiture. Does any other company do the same?

Do I need the models' ID? I know MatrixContent and PaulMarkham include the IDs in the set. Anyone else provide IDs without additional fees? Is that really important to me, or should I just take the word of the content companies? How much content you bought did come with models' ID (10% or 90%)?

Any constructive advices are welcome. I am willing to spend the money, but I don't want to get in trouble even when I don't use magazine scan images
