Or are you simply concerned about your fellow webmasters ? What about the content producers? Licenses is normally issued on a domain basis unless it's exclusive, what's the best way to track that ? What about 2257s etc, should the sponsor be responsible for that as well ? (the content on your server, not theirs)

My comment about the program owner was to show that the programs are well aware that their watermark takes sales away from affiliates.
What was this thread about? It was about programs saying that their watermarks were about "protecting" content which it is not what they're doing when they put the watermark on there.
I'm pissed at programs for blatently trying to steal sales from me.. I'm pissed at cry baby affiliates whining about it and then not actually doing anything about it.. My first post was addressed to programs, but I also told affiliates to "get their head out of their ass". I'm an equal opportunity whiner.
Out of the hundred or so programs I promote, there's not one that gives a shit if I host the FHGs myself regardless of what their TOS might say... Many of them even offer that as an option and many more offer the same content for affiliates to build their own galleries.
Once more... This thread is about the purpose of the watermark the programs put on their content.
