Hi Jason,First of all, thanks for the write up.   We apieacprte the time you took to test and review Sparkeo. As for your comments, with your permission I would like to reply to them:1) Downloading the video   if you have not purchased the video, only the preview is downloaded. Regardless, we have already developed a streaming version of the video player, which we are still tweaking, so soon downloads won't be available at all. This is, of course, to protect our course owners from people stealing their material.2) Copyright   we will soon begin manually reviewing videos as they are uploaded, however no payout will be made until we have verified that the person who has uploaded the video actually owns the copyright. If there are problems, we will give those who purchased it their money back.3) Paying for content   there actually are a lot of people who are willing   and already are   paying for content. Sparkeo was created for long and in-depth video courses, not short 5 minute videos that can be found anywhere else. I wouldn't personally buy a 5 minute course that I could find anywhere else, either.4) 1-minute preview   thanks for the suggestion. We will look into it and perhaps add it as an additional feature later on.5) Promotion   Currently, Sparkeo is not a destination site. This means that, while we provide you with all the social networking tools you would need to promote your video, we aren't the place where people come to find knowledge, at least not yet. We can, however, give you advice on how to promote your videos outside of your social networks.I would be more than happy to answer any more questions you may have.
