The only way to implement download protection is to encrypt the
full length, full resolution files and only have low-resolution
partial samples in the clear.  And on top of that, all it takes
is one paying customer to redistribute the file, so it has to
be water-marked and copyright violators agressively prosecuted.

So unless there's a very narrow but lucrative niche market,
you're in the same boat as the music and software industries.
