Valid point, as sponsors do close up shop.
Unless I really knew someone, and I mean knew them for a while in the business, I would not allow my content to be watermarked with a URL I didn't own. As luck would have it, they are never the ones asking for tube clips they can watermark on their own. It's always guys who ask and then get offended if you don't let them have their way with your content. That always throws a red flag for me. If it was that important to them, they could buy their own content the way affiliates used to do. Then they could do with it as they pleased, and promote whoever they want with it.
