User submitted content, that gets removed on request or filtered out - vs - a site linking to known pirated content and probably ignoring removal requests and/or not having enough money to fight in the first place, is vastly different.

At that, hasn't anyone noticed that Tube sites have been buying content/dvds? Not saying all of them, but some of the biggest ones have been for awhile.

And 2257 got kicked in the balls, so it's going to make the new law harder to stick if it was pushed. And with the old law, they only need to keep a record of the producers, which is easy to do.

Piracy always has been and probably always will be an issue, and having the power of the MPAA would probably help a ton. But only if they go after better targets and stop wasting time and money with the almost insane attacks that they are known for.
