Fris, it still amounts to unauthorized redistribution for profit...any way you slice it. And results in potential loss of livelihood and revenue for all producers of original content.

And the question has been raised here MANY, MANY times - why should the onus be put on us as producers to have to contact THEM to have it removed? Why must we be forced to be proactive and spend our time and resources policing our federally-protected copyright material?

The logistics of finding out just how much of our stuff is on Guba these days would involve hiring a staff of people to comb through their entire inventory, like looking for a needle in a field of haystacks.
