i was reading the replies to the MC thread and saw the below posts and felt there was a lot of misinformation going on about the CCBill DMCA process.

when we get a dmca notice we are required by law to do what spike mentioned, we follow the law very carefully here, and that should not be any surprise to anybody
below is an excerpt from an email from tom f in response to a question about our policies, in an effort to clear misconceptions up
Because some individuals might try to find ways to circumvent our policies if we made them public, we do not. CCBill's policy follows the requirements of the DMCA. Our policies and procedures have been upheld by the U.S. 9th Circuit in Perfect 10 v. CCBill and the court ruled that it is the responsibility of the copyright holder to police their copyrights for infringement. The court also decided that CCBill has no right or ability to determine on its own whether or not a particular site is infringing. We have never ignored a copyright complaint and have a record of every written complaint we ever received whether it was valid or not. If we do not receive a proper DMCA notification, we provide the individual with a form that can be used to submit a proper notification. I have attached a copy of what we send to someone who has not submitted a proper notification. Unless the notice we receive meets the 6 requirements of the DMCA we cannot take any action. We will not discuss our policies or our actions regarding a specific client. Suffice it to say that no one will ever win a lawsuit based on a claim of our showing favoritism.I am sorry I cannot be more specific.
