Imageauction, I think you gotta a point but this is true for all business. When you create something exclusive and new you gain the first mover advantage. Then, if you're successful you get copied so you need to move fast.
Look at Bangbus - it is immitated but the guys who did it have earned both the respect in the industry and the bulk of the paying customers.
Exclusive content differentiates you and helps you sell - look at the hottest newcomer - taxicams.com. They're converting like crazy because their content is UNIQUE. I can probably download a clip or two from Kazaa but that doesn't change the fact that taxicams is making money big time exactly because they have EXCLUSIVE content.
