blogger,

Please tell me what you think about this?
OK, you asked so....Here's my thoughts (for what it's worth which is usually not much lol)

I guess one thing you can do is set it for no guest viewing in the admin panel and when you receive notification that you have a new user is to check their profile. If the email they use looks bogus, then just delete their account OR you can set it for "pay per view".

At this point your visitors have these options: keep signing up with bogus emails in order to keep viewing, pay to view, or go to someone else's website that doesn't have this requirement.

"keep signing up" to view is WORK so they'll probably go to someone else's website. Unless it's porn, they won't want to pay so they'll probably go to someone else's website. In essence, I think you'll be driving people away from your website.

Youtube doesn't force people to sign up, let alone verify an email, before viewing any videos so why you'd want to force people to do that, I don't understand (but then I don't have to it's not my site but yours and you can run it anyway you want to). The only reason I can think of for why any vshare admin would want to force people to verify an email, just to view videos, (unless it's a porn site) is to collect a list of emails for spamming or for a monthly newsletter. I pray it's not for spamming and not everyone is going to want a monthly newsletter. For uploading I can understand because if they put something that is contrary to the terms of service, you have something (even if it's little) to go on.

Porn sites ususally have a "pay first" which probably cures the email problem.
