Like if you have a shop selling porn dvds your a distributer, but if you create shelves to display those dvd's you're sudently a producer ?
Just doesn't make sence does it.. Though this law doesn't seem to be about sence so here you are the producer anyways

Correctamundo.
The law applies to those who PRODUCE the content. Not the affiliates. Not the distributors. The PRODUCERS, and PROVIDERS. Basically those who deal directly with the models, and who have direct contact (i.e. media company, photographer, publisher).
All you keyboard warrior GFY attorney's need to call a real lawyer.
Some of the people in these drama threads are apparently too poor to afford counsel, and come to the GFY to seek advice on how to run their business. Anyone see the problem in that?
If you are simply an affiliate, TGP or a webmaster who does nothing but distribute, resell, the content from a provider, then you just need to make sure your documentation is good for whereever your shit's coming from. That's how it's been for years.
This law is nothing more to make sure that if someone has a questionable model on their site, and should another webmaster, affiliate, O'Reilly, some Bush administration official, DOJ, or anyone else ask for you to prove she is over the age of 18 at the the of the shoot, you can produce these records. So you have a copy of their ID's, and preferible a picture of them laying on today's (or that day's) newspaper (i.e. showing the date).
End of story.
