To be fair, that isn't a very good comparison. When you go to McDonalds and buy their product you are not planning to redistribute it to other people.
A fact of this business is that it's risky. No matter what we think 2257 tells us and no matter what our lawyers say, if we get caught with underage models on our websites, telling the feds, "It isn't my fault, I don't keep the records," probably will not be the end of the problem. Even if you win in the end, the time lost and the potential damage to your business is great. For many webmasters, it's a case of better safe than sorry. I don't generally insist on having the models' IDs on file for myself but I wouldn't do business with anyone who refused to give them to me if I did ask.
