That would be a potential problem which is why a payout increase would probably be preferable. Presumably people who actively sell the sites would have an interest in keeping the full content off the torrent sites and rapidshare type sites. If they do not make sales 5% of zero is zero. Any fraud would put the affiliates account in jeopardy which would be stupid.
Another idea:
Start an organization which collects minimal dues from sponsors. That organization then hires people to find such violations and report them to the sponsors legal department. It is probably no more than a $25k - $20k job which is nothing. Get two people full time. It would probably take a huge dent out of it. They would have a list of forum and torrent sites to patrol each day looking for any content from member programs.
Heck if nothing else outsource it. $50k a year is nothing compared to the benefits of keeping all your full content off the torrents. Especially if you are a huge program. I would assume it makes sense.
