Re: [videoblogging] A Reason the Use Flash?

If you put something on the internet, someone will find a way to use it if they want to. Even if you streamed it or used flash, someone could use a screen recording program to make a copy of it. The way you protect the work is to license it according  to your wishes. Then if someone misuses it they are in voilation of the license. You can't physically stop people from using it though - just read any conversation on DRM anywhere on the internet.

I am starting a vlog using video that I have taken in the course of making some documentary films. People gave consent for me to use the material on the basis of their trust in me and how I would use it in a film.  Now I am contacting my subjects for permission to release the video on the internet in a vlog.  (I should point out that the subject matter centers on horseback riding and I am dealing with professional trainers and riders who have granted me unusual access to their work. Nothing naughty or embarrassing.)

My QuickTime  files can be downloaded and not only re-edited but can be re-released in unauthorized compilations.  Some of my subjects would not be happy about that.  I would like to reassure them that the videos can be viewed but not altered. And, if possible, that they cannot be re-distributed.

My questions:

Should I switch to Flash?

If I do go to Flash, is there an encoding app that does not cost  several hundreds of dollars?  I am new to vlogging and would like to ease into it as I see how it progresses.

Any ideas?

Thanks
