Content licenses for Paysites
There has been the suggestion that the Swoit model (for paysites) may violate the content licenses imposed by some third party content providers. Let me explain briefly how this is false.
When a Swoit member wishes to visit a paysite, an entry is made into that paysite's password file with a randomly generated username and password. The Swoit member then visits that paysite as if they had joined it directly They are free to enjoy the paysite as a regular member would. When their session is finished, their access is removed.
Swoit does not, in any way attempt to mask or hide the paysite the member is going to in an attempt to convey ownership of the content. In fact we take great pride in presenting all our paysites clearly, with full screen shots and descriptions. Quite frankly, increased usage of content will actually lead to increased revenue for content providers which is a very good thing.

Alright swoit all that taken into consideration what about still content and the domains that they are licensed to. For once i am agreeing with Mutt.
I see that alot of the sites are made with matrix content and that we only show licensing for 3 domains. Not trying to bust your balls at all here i am just interested on behalf of still image content providers. You are now making money on an image that is licensed to one company for their use. This does not extend them letting you have use of it.
Like i said i am interested in the product absolutely but i want to try and figure this out before i go into it.
Sounds like a good idea.
