how best/easiest to sell animation clips off the net?
Hi all,
I am previously a pro comics illustrator, turned animator, have at least one film as a finalist film in a film festival. I’ve been working hard on material that I wish to sell, and with my fan base from comics have a demographic.
So, in anticipation of combining myspace with zippy videos and youtube (which should now be called “googletube”, ha ha),
what is the easiest and least painful way to sell animation clips (between 1 and 3 minutes each) on the net? For people that PayPal a certain amount per clip?
Frankly I’m not into paying out for a “secured domain” etc.; Right now I don’t see why I can’t just sell memberships to a yahoo group where I decide whom is allowed as a member (with access to the clips, assuming the e-mail address they provide is correspondent to the person that sends me a “donation” via paypal. That would be “free” and limit the amount of people coming in with access (which is of course a dodgy/querolous issue especially considering Torentspy/etc./isohnt.com/other such sites and people wrongfully uploading Family Guy and other material on youtube.
So, is there a way as “free and easy” as a tripod site that allows me to have a GOOD QUALITY vid file (like a 30mb mpeg) instantly sent to someone who buys in via paypal, or will I need to do a “membership approved” system or send the files to people via e-mail once their PayPal (confirmed only) comes through?
all help greatly appreciated.

hello…
i’d also just consider using paypal itself – they offer cart services and the likes that you can tie into your site for free (only fees are per-purchase fees)…pretty easy to do and i’ve purchased lots of software (and other digital files) from people that way over the years…
