The biggest difficulty with the new 2257 changes will be going back and recouping info that you didn't keep track of because you didn't think you had to.
Going forward, since you now know you need t keep track of the info should be rather painless.
If you deal with small amounts of conent, make up a sreadsheet or a simple notebook and keep notes of who, what, where and when. Also organize the conent on your disk in such a manner that you can track back.
If you deal in large content quantities then you are probably using a more automated approach. If you are using your own custom programs then add the tracking into the code. If you are using purchased software that does not include any kind of databasing method then chuck it and find a program that does create a track for you.
It is not up to the content provider to track this stuff for you. It is up to you to run your business properly, noone else.

If a content provider sells content and hands you the documents you have to set up all of the record keeping. So does every other webmaster that ever buys that content.
However, if a content provider sold that content with some form of tracking in place that content would only have to be worked on once. I would imagine they would get a boost in sales if not everyone was doing it. With the price of outsourced workers this wouldn't cost them much and it would allow anyone to start with a compliant site.
Just my opinion on the matter but I bet someone does something like this in the near future and I would also wager they make way more additional money than the few bucks it would cost them to have somone run through the content to make it managable.
