I am selling PDFs in either singles or bundles and I have the site working perfectly. When users checkout and payment is processed, the download links work great. The problem is that if a person knows the complete url of the download filename, then they can access that without purchasing. So a purchaser could send the link to someone else.

 

It seems as though the concept of making the link prove that the order is legit and dynamically create the links on the fly, but I don't see any protection for the raw file link itself. This seems like a big hole. Any ideas?
