CMS Made Simple Forums

I was hoping that someone might be able to point me in the right direction. I'm not even sure if CMSMS is suitable for this project, but I suspect it may work just fine:

I need to create a secure website that will allow subscribers to have paid access to videos for a limited period of time. Subscriptions will be for individual videos. The videos will be hosted externally on a secure streaming server (possibly Clipstream). Users must be able to log in and access their 'video bin' during their subscription period. I'd also like to have a safeguard in place that will prevent them from double-ordering the same video during the subscription period.

Could anyone please give me some advice so that I can get my head around this?

Personally i believe, that every media type that is published to the internet is not protected from copying. There is not a problem to download video stream.

Uploads module can provide temporary link to file. I am not sure if they support external files (your server should allow external files also).
So you need  ordering form,
UDT that makes link available to ordered file and another
UDT to check double orders or one that creates ordering form without items already ordered.
Comma separated list of item IDs could be saved in FEU custom proterty.

I agree and have advised my client of that. Their expectations are realistic, but they want me to make it as secure as possible.

I just want to make sure I choose the right platform to begin with. I have no problem paying someone to help with development if customization is required.

Thanks for the input, I'm still not sure how I would approach the UDTs or the subscription system, but I'm now optimistic about using CMSMS.

Any other ideas?
