Hi Scott
I'm not a specialist in this, but you should explore
streaming technology. If you visit the Lux online
website (http://www.luxonline.org.uk ) for example ,
you can download clips of artists films. The way the
Lux have done it means that while you can view the
clip via the website you can only save the link to
your desktop, not the content. It seems to me this
would be ideal for you.

Alternatively, since I work a little bit in Flash. You
might explore this option which is to create an index
swf file which uses actionscript to load another movie
over the top of it. The advantage of this is that
while web visitors can save the originating swf file
they cannot save the content it loads into the
browser. The address of the loading movie is hidden.

Anyway, there's two options for you to explore. Hope
this is of use
