I need to figure out how I can set up a self-hosted system to sell my documentary The Illusionists.

Sure, I could host it on PeerTube and add all kinds of foreign language subtitles there... but I need a solution to generate unique URLs for everyone who purchases a 48-hour streaming license... all this to avoid piracy of course.

Yes I know the Fediverse loves 🏴‍☠️​ but how can we independent filmmakers survive?

I've been using a mainstream platform to sell my film and they have just been bought by an infamous company, so I want to decamp ASAP.

I would love your suggestions.

And no, services that offer to sell digital products won't work because it's a 90 minute film that requires subtitles for many so the viewer needs to see it on an online platform that displays subtitles.
