Youtube has now started to have ip locking for its videos around March 18 2010. This is on the same lines as being done by some other sites like MegaVideo for Example. Now to allow user download from such sites there are two ways –
- Your Server streams the files to users – This method uses 2x bandwidth and can make most shared hosting servers crawl. Though is more transparent. But as soon as your site becomes popular , high probability your server IP address facing a ban.
- Use supplies supplies source code of vieweing page – Simple and effective , User has to paste source code of page he is viewing. Approach being followed by other grabbers. But unlike other sites i have also attached a bookmarklet which streamlines the whole process to one click.
