OnlyFans videos now defaulting to DRM/streaming

Tragic, he was on my list of people to sub to that i discovered entirely because other people posted his content lol.
Same! That’s how I end up subscribing to most accounts - I see leaks on here and twitter and sub for more. They don’t understand that, though.

And remember that everything up until May 2023 is still downloadable! So take what you can get now before they delete everything and reupload with DRM
 
The issue is that, as of a week or two ago, OnlyFans seemingly made DM the default for all (or at least many) accounts, without notifying anyone. I've encountered this problem on multiple accounts that I bought videos from in the last few days.

The model I was chatting with had not chosen to activate DRM, but was getting complaints from his followers after they bought videos that wouldn't play properly.

He investigated and discovered DRM was default set to "ON."

Here's where it is, circled in red, in the settings that content creators have:

As you can see, the fine print does say that "DRM protection may limit the ability of fans using older devices to view this video content." They're not kidding. Adding DRM makes the videos a nightmare to view. Luckily, the model I chatted with was happy to remove it.

I think this is going to cause no end of headaches for content creators, and also for fans, who will pay money for videos, only to find them unwatchable.

I suspect it'll cause a lot of people to drop their subscriptions, and many models won't even know whyI

I guess this is because most of their content can be found on torrent sites so they are trying to stamp this out as they are losing money. But if the fans cannot download their content they will just stop subscribing so it lose lose situation.

I have more to share on who uses DRM. I told them you can’t cast to your tv and have poor quality, some said this is to protect us. From what a bad few that will find away anyways! I Pay and never share but my experience is now poor. Yea..mess up the experience for your paying customers:

Like I said earlier most of there stuff is uploaded to torrent so this is to stop this practice but its gong to back fired on them as punters will stop subscribing to their accounts.

People who torrent had no intention of paying lol, they aren't really "lost sales". That demographic is taking whatever is being uploaded not simply saying "haha I was going to pay but someone uploaded oh well."

Every single blockbuster movie and major video game is available for torrent as well, some even before their release date.
They don't calculate every single download as a loss, because thats not realistic.

I've downloaded and torrented some creators back in 2020 (some i discovered for the first time through the torrents!) and subbed to some of those same creators for more than 6 months last year.

It's not really an exact science.
 
I'm subscribed to tons of Onlyfan pages and wanted to contribute to the list but am confused about who is using DRM and who isnt as downable vids appears random on some pages. Is there a way to make sure so i can compile a list and post. You cant edit post here so would like to be as accurate as possible

When you say those who use torrent had no intention of paying I thought most of these sites you has to subscribe to and pay for like My Vidster. Re the creators I would never pay from the baiters directly as they are not worth it and are wasted of money. Re the other creators who have great action I have subscribed to but get bored very quickly as they all morph into one to be fair.
 
Hey guys so I created a thread solely for the purpose of listing creators who has and doesn’t have DRM settings. I made it clear the issues we are having with the settings over there so that if any creator comes across it they know that we are all together with having these issues & that they are being listed out directly in a thread about this. I made it clear how to search for the users people might want to search for. And made it clear how creators in the future can change their name being on the list.



Please like this post to boost it. And head over to the thread & post your updated lists of creators who do and don’t have the setting. And if you would rather not repeat yourself those who have posted them here. Let me know and I’ll happily copy paste your list from here over there

The Updated correct Link to the thread:Onlyfans List of DRM users & Non-users

Also Just uploaded my creators that do & don’t have the DRM setting.
 
Such a bummer that Beau Butler is also using DRM. I love him..

GrgIsTheWerd aka Greg McKeon is using DRM as well. has anyone subscribed to his husband's OF page (CollegeBro4You) and know if he's using DRM as well? i'd imagine yes.. but there could be surprised.
 
RIP Onlyfans! It was fun while it lasted. On the bright side I can finally get around to editing the 4+ terabytes of material I've downloaded over the past few years lol. Onlyfans sure knows how to commit suicide! They're just determined to off themselves, aren't they?
 
Outside of asking a performer, is there a way to know who has DRM turned on?
If you use Firefox or Brave, you can turn off the browser's ability to play DRM files. When off and viewing a creator's page, you will see the DRM post blurred with the wording saying the file is not playable.

The easiest guaranteed ways to know if they have DRM is :

1. Attempt to screen record their MOST recent video on your iPhone. If it doesn’t allow you to do so & it’s heavily glitched out DRM.

2. If you have an iPhone simply put on “mirror screen” or attempt to directly cast their most recent video individually. To your tv. ( If you have a smart Tv). If you’re mirroring your screen to your tv everything will be completely normal until you scroll down to their video & try to play it. It will completely black out your screen & possibly fuck your phone up for a few moments where you aren’t even able to mirror your screen. If you attempt to cast the individual video to your tv it will also just be black or just never play.

I prefer the screen recording method as it takes like 10 seconds at most.

Oh & the most important detail is yes it has to be their most recent video. As videos made before May 2023 will not have this issues. Unless wow their even further assholes & deleted all their vids from before may 2023 most have not gone this far though. I think it’s probably too much work for some & their overall likes will take a hit. And the other reason is maybe they’re a toggler. I have not experienced one nor do I truly know in depth how the system works.

But I know when a person toggles the DRM setting off all of their videos become non DRM. What I don’t know is if these newly non DRM videos are labeled as special. Meaning I don’t know if they will now permanently be non DRM. Or if they are having something built into them in the case the creator decides to turn drm back on. And they automatically will go back to being DRM since their special or if hey are treated now like the videos before may 2023 that are like I said permanently non DRM now. I hope it’s the latter because it will really put a hole in creators not wanting to toggle unless they are committing to it.

If anyone has experience with this, this info would be really helpful. If they’ve come across a creator that turned it off then on again & how it effected their newer videos.
 
Here is my most recent update for those you use DRM. The one I remember that refused to turn it off notated. I removed those that said they will turn off DRM. There may be some repeats from what other mentioned, but is always good to reiterate since it will be easier to discover which ones use it. Will update more next week.
