How many content producers can/will/are able to pursue legal action against every single site that is illegally distributing their content. Now, take those same content producers who sit and watch their content being stolen and distributed, and give them the option, say "Hey. Ok, so I can't stop these assholes from stealing my stuff. Maybe it would be in my best interest to TALK to them, figure out a way I can give them something they want, I can get traffic out of the deal, and then they aren't going to STEAL my content anymore, suddenly I can control my content, provide them with what *I* want them to have, and build accountability where there wasn't some before". Sure, Redtube may not be "100% legit" , but, don't you think if enough producers put the pressure on and put them in a box, it wouldn't force the issue? I'm trying to provide alternatives here that people can actually action, not the righteous battle that will end in martyrdom and no results for the vast majority of people who are affected the most. Do you get me NOW?
