I want to put downloadable video and, or audio files, +/- 2 hours, with expiration, like 7 days or 5 times viewings, after they pay via Paypal or google checkout. How do I do that? What program? What format? What end user player? flash? .avi /.flv /mpg4? And audio, what format, what free player? Thanks

    One thing you could do is use a pluggin like WP Wishlist that makes them a 'member' after payment. Then, put the download links in the members area and set their membership access duration to whatever you wish.

    OR,

    You could host your videos on ScreenCast and embed them in your members area (not downloadable) and then give them limited or all-time access. You will soon be able to limit username and password access to IP address if you're worried about freebies getting in.

    Either way, no matter how many obstacles you create if someone wants to distribute your content for free there's little you can do about it. My advice is to make your products viral so that those who do get it for free are directed into your sales funnel, for future sales down the line.

      Scott,

      Thanks. Good idea.
      1- But, I still don't know how to put video and audio files for people to download.
      2- "Go viral". How and where do I find the program to do it?
