    Greedy members

    What the best way to deal with a pay site member who uses more than his fair share of bandwidth - e.g keeps downloading the same video in all formats. He's already downloaded the entire site.

    Place a little notice on your members page asking that members right click and save movies to help save on bandwidth.

    Members can be very supportive.

        he's paying you for the privilege of doing just that.
        if you're worried about your bandwith, you need a better server.

          Restrict bandwidth per member or just get a better hosting plan. You should step up to one of the mbs plans instead of a per gig so this will not bother you as much.
          I've trusted my sites to them for over a decade...

            If you want to limit the amount a member can download
            you can use a service as trafficwize for your bandwidth
            control.
