    Guys,

    I'm having a few questions, and i hope some of you can help me with this. I'm trying to understand how tubesites work.

    - Do these sites rip movies from other tubesite?
    - If yes, is there a script for this?
    - Why is there so much difference in bandwidth between tubesites?
    - Do all these tube sites work like youtube? so with just the link to the movie or do these sites store all their content on there server


    Thanks for your reply in advance!

    Cheers

    Alex

    hey !
    There Are several options for starting a tubesite
    1.you host movies/clips on your own servers. (requires dedicated server)
    2.you embedd from other popular sites. (shared hosting is enough)
    there are many premade scripts for both of them
    recently I installed the second one for one of my client on

    and yeah its automated..it pulls off videos from many sites with a cronjob

    if you're going to use videos primarily from other sites its best to pick a niche category rather than try to do a broad online video site.

    But this pulling of videos from popular sites is legal?

    Why is that? To much competition without a niche?

    1.This is depend on the script owner.

    2.This is due to the scripting feature.

    3.Also depend on the script owner,if they want to safe bandwidth,then they direct the traffic to other site.
