So I came across this article on e24.se about this file sharing service that pays you to share. I haven't really looked too much into it, but I'll post what their website has to say about how it works. An interesting approach from what I can make of it so far.
What is Headweb?
Headweb is a service and community for movie lovers! Buy and download movies, fast and easy. You can burn direct to DVD and watch when you want, where you want and as many times you want.
Headweb is built on peer2peer and is the first service to offer DRM-free downloads that works Windows, Mac and Linux computers.
At the moment we offer one download format: the e-DVD. You download the DVD to your computer and can burn it to a disc to play in your standard DVD player (of course you can also watch it directly on your computer). We'll soon offer additional download formats.
Since we don't think a movie should be of less quality just because it comes from the net we'll give you full DVD quality with surround sound and subtitles. Our movies aren't damaged with copy protection either which makes it much easier for you to use and watch them. To get the approval to sell without DRM (copy protection) and still solve copyright issues involved, we had to invent a new technology for watermarking every download. The invisible watermark will not cause any problems for legal and honest users but increases the risk of getting caught for those who illegally spread the movies. We believe watermarking is a good compromise so that you won't have to deal with complicated copy protections.
As a thank you for downloading from Headweb and helping out with the distribution to others, you'll earn credits. When you have enough credits you can convert them to cash and use as payment in the store. (Yes, that's right, we actually pay you to help us!)
Sign up today and enter the DRM-free world, we know you'll enjoy it.
Background
The future is online. Watching and downloading movies off the internet is already the present for some users and is increasing in popularity. Many want to buy and download movies on the net but few legal services exists that offers the flexibility and ease of use that everyone wants.
Services are often found difficult to use compared to the more easy but illegal alternatives. Many services also offers lesser audio and video quality compared to a DVD and copy protections restricts the way we can use our legally purchased movies. Headweb has changed this!
