I am the copyright holder. I did file for copyright status. The only potential for fair use would be small snippets for review purposes, or in some instances parody. Personal backup does not extend to a shared network no matter how you slice it and even if you only back up a tiny portion of the whole. It still is very damn cut and dry under 99.9% of all cases even with that ruling which had more to do with sending fake take down notices.

a lot of the ruling in this case apply to torrent sites, and the fair use right of timeshifting (which you ignored)

Up to you, ignore any fair use right you want to, pretend that only the original fair use rights defined originally exist, and ignore all those established by the courts. It will cost you.
