What some of these site owners don't realize (or maybe don't care) is that when you host and/or link to free vid's and everything else, it slows down the production of new content. So in the long run, you're only hurting yourselves.
Also, many of the surfers on those pirate sites are freeloaders... they don't want to pay so I don't see how their going to pay for that sponsor stuff that's on some of those sites host. Turning a free business model into a paying model rarely works and it's just a matter of time
