There is the thing where content providers go out of business too. I was really stressed out because I bought some content from Bareskin really early on and they shut down their site and told me that they would be happy to provide the legal info if I was ever asked for it, but, with their site shut down, I thought it unlikely I would be able to track them down if needed. Fortunately, I later photographed the same girl myself, so I have all of her info now.

Anyone have an opinion on how it would shake out if you have a content provider's custodian and last known custodial address? Would that be accepted?
If a video store buys a video from VCA which has their current custodian of records info on it and then VCA relocates that office....Do you think they recall all of the videos? No, they don't. The video is still legal. As far as a provider going out of business.....Even more reason to stick with a US provider. 2257 requires them to maintain the records for 5 years, even if they shut down.
