Well that I can agree. Some sites ask you for your memebrship info for EVERY fricken video you want to see. Once you've given the info ONCE in a session they should not have to ask for it again and again. I can see why that would piss off a surfer.

Fact is once you are not a memebr of of a site why should you have access ot the content still? Do you go to a video store and rent a DVD or rent a movie on PPV( I'm talking non porn ) with the expectation of keeping it forever? No you ACCEPT the fact you are paying for a TEMPORARY viewing window. Why shouldn't pay site also have this same expectation?
