Excellent and a great idea

please put up some screenshots of stream + rip

it has to be said though to rip screens is much more of a pain than downloading, since you have to capture while playing the entire film. No other interaction with the computer while ripping. Impossible to prevent in any situation, but it makes things a shit load harder.

AND like mentioned above, you can overlay username/IP to a stream.... maybe this is what MasterM was touching on - I thought he was saying to add to the downloaded movie, but yes, adding an overlay to the movie can even be done on the embed page, not streaming server side, so no extra server strain.

That way you have the username and IP of the pirate - in that case, you have their CC details via the processor and you can go after them with no problem in the courts
