Ok so you think it's legal to post movies on your websites where you don't own the copyright or haven't been given the right to do so? That's not a question of ethics or emotions, this is one of legality. The absence of receipt of a DMCA complaint doesn't make hosting a copyrighted file any more legal that it would be to run down the street with stolen property after robbing a liquor store if the cops didn't catch you.
