TipTheWeb handles this chicken-egg problem: http://tiptheweb.org/

Tips identify content just by URL de-coupling content attribution from the authors claiming their tips. This also us to work for tipping content on YouTube, Flickr, and GitHub, etc. without requiring the site to be directly integrated with TipTheWeb.

What happens if I tip someone whose video, photo, or code gets taken down?

Content attribution happens at the time the Tip is made, so it will be there even if the content is taken down after a user makes a Tip for it.

Thanks for this. I tried Flattr but it seemed A) too barren and B) too Euro-centric for me. TTW seems like an awesome service, I've already made $4. =)
