VOD is short for "Video on Demand."
It's an intriguing new way to protect your Absolute Redheads or other video content, and ensure that your video archives cannot
be copied by file traders or otherwise get out of your control.
Absolute Redheads and Pay2Play.net have teamed up to
offer a "VOD" tab in your Absolute Redheads fanclub. If you log in to Pay2Play.com with your Absolute Redheads VCH screenname and password,
any movie file you "lock" using Pay2Play's proprietary DRM technology will also appear in the VOD tab of your fanclub.
Exercise control. Stop copytheft. Enjoy mega-distribution. And Get Paid. Isn't that everything you've been asking for?

Top Questions by Stars Concerning Absolute Redheads VOD
|
"Why VOD? What's in it for me?"
Three great benefits:
-
Control:
Control who can view your video files, when they're
viewed, and what it costs to view.
-
Massive Distribution & Exposure:
When you lock your movie with Pay2Play,
you can elect to make that movie available to the
Pay2Play.net marketer distribution network,
more than 100,000 independent marketing affiliates are available to promote your movie
file and distribute it to all ends of the earth.
(The affiliates are incentivized through a structure whereby they can add a commission
to the price of each movie distributed, a cost passed down to the purchaser, so
that you get the full price that you specify.)
-
Income:
When your Pay2Play files are unlocked for viewing (i.e, a license is purchased),
100% of the price you specify goes directly to you. That's right: 100 percent. (As a Pay2Play Participating Partner,
Absolute Redheads has obtained a waiver of the usual 5% processing fee for all Absolute Redheads Stars).
And when you offer Pay2Play-enabled VOD content in your fanclub, it acts as an
attractive lure for premium-priced Superfan memberships, who are entitled
to your VOD at no extra charge. (you can
charge up to $49.99 monthly for Superfan membership).
|
"Can I log in to Pay2Play.net using my Absolute Redheads VCH screenname and password?"
Yes. Because Absolute Redheads is a Pay2Play Participating Partner (PPP), your Absolute Redheads login and password, as well as your Absolute Redheads content, works automatically with Pay2Play.
(As a convenience feature, the first time you use your VCH screenname and password to log in to Pay2Play, a new Pay2Play account is automatically created under the same name, and with your same Absolute Redheads information. From that point forward, to perform any changes to your
Pay2Play account information, you must use the Pay2Play.com website.)
|
"Is it true that I collect 100% of the price I specify, whenever a user successfully
unlocks (licenses) my Pay2Play or VOD movie?"
Yes. Because Absolute Redheads is a Pay2Play Participating Partner (PPP), Pay2Play.com waives the standard 5% processing
fee for any Pay2Play account owned by a Absolute Redheads Chathost Star, where the
Pay2Play account name is the same as the Absolute Redheads VCH screenname. Therefore, if you charge $20 to watch
a Windows Media movie, and Pay2Play collects $20 from a person who successfully unlocks (licenses) the movie,
you collect the full $20. Absolute Redheads collects $0 of the $20.
(Note: When a SuperFan-level member of your FanClub downloads pay2play movies via the
VOD tab in your fanclub, the license is provided automatically. [You may charge SuperFans up to
$49.99 monthly for SuperFan membership]. For more on this, see Q&A question below, "I have Pay2Play movies listed under my VOD tab, for $1 per view. So why are my viewers getting them for free?")
|
"If Absolute Redheads collects $0 from my $20 PPV movie, what motivates Absolute Redheads to support VOD/Pay2Play?"
When any person downloads and attempts to play your VOD or Pay2Play file, the movie –
and the credit-card interface – refer the person to your FanClubs.com address. i.e., "To see more of AMANDA36C, visit the AMANDA36C FanClub."
Through this
marketing and exposure, you will attract new prospects to your FanClub and live videochat, and more
traffic to the Absolute Redheads platform.
|
"How does the VOD tab in my FanClub relate to Pay2Play?"
If you protect a movie file on the Pay2Play.com website while logged in with your Absolute Redheads VCH screenname and
password, each movie file you create appears under the VOD tab in your FanClub.
|
"Can I selectively remove items from my FanClub VOD tab?"
Of course. Use your FanClub Manager/Dressing Room facility to control your VOD content, in the
exact same manner as you control other "Eye Candy" content like the "Pics" tab and the "Movies" tab.
|
"What kind of content can I offer under my VOD tab?"
You may offer any content that you think your fans will enjoy and that is consistent
with the Absolute Redheads VCH License Agreement (i.e., no obscenity, etc). Through
the Pay2Play "
Lock a File"
facility, you can reference any existing
Absolute Redheads WindowsMedia archive movie – including HD movies – or, alternatively,
upload movies directly from your hard drive. And for even more convenience, if your
movie file is already hosted
on a website you control, just tell Pay2Play the URL address of that movie!
|
"How does my FanClub VOD tab and Pay2Play relate to My FanClub Vault?"
If you have created a FanClub Vault (via your FanClub Manager/Dressing Room "Settings I should update
occasionally"), every time you lock a video file at Pay2Play.com, the locked version of that
file appears automatically in the 'Hot VOD' movie album in your Vault.
|
"How does my FanClub VOD tab and Pay2Play relate to Groups?"
Groups is a new community-oriented platform where
both you and your fans can post content, exchange information, and communicate. It also acts as
host for FanClub Vaults.
One of the most popular groups on the Groups platform is the "Hottest Videos" group.
At this special group, your Pay2Play content automatically appears in a "Hot VOD" movie folder bearing
your VCH screenname.
(Since Pay2Play.com is used to lock movie files with payment prompts, files which you or others distribute
far and wide, think of the Groups platform as one great way to get your locked movie files more widely trafficked).
|
"I have Pay2Play movies listed under my VOD tab, for $1 per view. So why are my viewers getting them for free?"
Only SuperFan-level members of your FanClub get your VOD for "Free" (At monthly SuperFan subscription dues
of up to $49.99 per month -- you
set the price -- VOD is far from free).
Note: Users who joined your FanClub prior to Feb 2005, are members now, and have continuously been members of your fanclub,
are grandfathered in to SuperFan VOD. (Reason #1: Laws require that customers who joined your Fanclub
under the
promise that their monthly fanclub dues would include all benefits available in the fanclub are entitled to
receive "all benefits available", period. Reason #2: A Fan that remains a fan is far better than an ex-fan who
abruptly cancels his membership
because he's pissed off that something he once got for free now costs extra)
