Script similar to "Free album download" sign-up (NIN, Radiohead, so on)

Anyone know of any similar script to provide the visitor with an email submit form, then generate a unique download link to a file on the server, then email out the link? (hopefully the link expires?) PHP and MySQL would be best, to my understanding.

 

example: http://dl.nin.com/theslip/signup

 

I searched with every keyword I could think of, yet nothing comes up. What would a script like this be called, anyway?

Would be nice to have this script for an independent artist like myself. Any ideas?

 

 

All I could find is the following:

Well yeah, validating forms and sending emails is the easiest part here. :-\

How about a download manager to manage emailed unique links + use of MySQL database for submitted info storage?

 

That's what's weird, I figured this wouldn't be too hard to put together, and would probably be pretty popular. Nope. Nothing.
