One possible solution: If the guy who you provided the content to originally didn't get 2257 docs with it, tell the people who bought the content that it isn't compliant, the provider doesn't have docs, and that you're going to report it to their ISP. An intelligent business owner might risk a content licensing argument but won't risk having content up for which he knows there's no 2257 docs to back it up.
Exactly right.

If I was in the same situation, I would sue both of them for everything they are worth. One for re-licensing things they have no rights for, and the other for copyright violations.

In the meantime, I would make is saucy by going after their infrastructure. knocking them out of SERPS, and other such entertainment.

I am sure once you start knocking out their business infrastructure then you will find them a bit more cooperative.
