thanks for the mention

Hey Doug, thanks for the mention :)

Just to correct something - Soccerlens is not 'behind YouTube'. What I've said in the article you've linked to is that the Premier League should provide premium content on their own servers, and their piracy problems will be slashed in half AND they'd gain a good source of revenue.

Basically, follow the iTunes model, except charging by monthly subscriptions instead of downloads (although that's a viable model too).

And thank you

And thank *you* for the clarification. I was working off the “deliberatly encouraging users to upload and share short video clips of goals, football skills and controversial incidents to generate public attention and boost traffic” bit - sorry for the mixup.
