I think we should create a group in yahoo that is moderator run in which paid members only are allowed to join. They would provide their yahoo ID and given a request. Not only will this provide a way to give caption privilages to paying members (as this bandwidth problem is INSANE !) but it will be a great place for paid-only captions to appear.
I would be glad to run the moderator position.
Whadda think, Grey?

But, I would still be charging people for copyrighted material wouldn't I? Am I understanding your idea correctly, Kira?

I'd hate to say anything more than that becuase I wouldn't want to get you in trouble. Although i'm about yea close to creating my own for my 'friends' whom can ask me to join. Follow? Otherwise, consider posting on your website here (although the bandwidth might go to pot in that case)

technically as a moderator you have the right to refuse anyone joining the group. To join you have to write a note to the moderator why you should be a part of the group. Just have it that they give you the email address that was used to bill this website. If it matches up, then allow them as a member. Not sure how you'd be able to get rid of someone if they don't pay you anymore, but I'm sure you could work it out. Pretty much every caption group and site is using copywritten material.

If Kira was the moderator and Yahoo hosted the images I see no problem with setting up a moderated group. You're not the one restricting access, Kira is, and as long as Yahoo makes the rules you have no liability.
I say go for the group!

Email me at kira23e@yahoo.com, Grey. I'll need to download all the captions or be sent them. At least, the ones you want me to put there since they're your property.
I'll invite everyone via a message board post later on, once ive got it running.
P.s.: Maybe if you make me a mod for the 5th cpations group too I can have unlimited access (or at least a better chance at doing the job)
