so far .... no. But i will jump on that boat!

I checked out a couple different paysites last month. I like to do that from time to time to see what people are doing.

That DRM on videos in the members area is reeeeeally annoying from a surfing perspective. Have to keep entering your friggin name and password. Then wait.. and hope it works.

I read it was easy to remove the DRM from films.

Also does DRM work with all film players?

I am not 100% sure if DRM is a good idea or not.

No you pretty much have to use Media Player.

I think people that put DRM on their movies really are missing the bigger picture.

Most users are stupid, and this whole DRM thing confuses and pisses them off.

Then you went to a site using a company that is doing it WRONG! There is NO reason why a user should EVER be prompted for their u/p more than once during a billing cycle. We encourage our clients to set it up so that they enter the u/p once and can then play ANY of the members area content for that billing period without being prompted again WHETHER or not they are online.

Hit me up I can show you how to do it right.

Um nope...plus it creates rebills and new signups. We have proven this with too many clients for that to be the case.

DRM is just at the beginning at the moment but it is definitely the way to go forwards.

Maybe you should be asking how much longer should I continue to lose money? If you are not protecting your vidoes with some sort of DRM encryption, then you are in essence not making as much as you should be. Many webmasters are intrigued with the fact that DRM can give them a sence of protection for what is rightfully theirs. But it doesn't stop their. DRM encryption combined with proper marketing can prove to be quite profitable.

The DRM works pretty well but will certainly get better in the future. XPays has sold thousands of DRM movies at http://HotelHeiress.com (see bottom a la carte menu of drm's).

Few up's and downs:

- crackers crack drm and post the method for unlocking it. needs improvement security wise.

- user has to wait to download what is usually a big file so instant gratification is not happening.

- is a one-auth style sale so recurring on a single drm purchase is minimized to those who offer renewal like we do with our partner TrustFundGirls.

- surfers are new to the technology and require a lot of handholding.

- There are NO chargebacks!!!
- There are NO chargebacks!!!
- There are NO chargebacks!!!

We choose to use a hybrid of conventional paysite with a la carte DRM's to make the best of both worlds.

XPays offers $30 flat on http://HotelHeiress.com cc/check sales plus 50% of the dialer and 20% of the DRM sales.
