No doubt it would be easier if things did work like that. The bigger issue is that tubes who have content submitted by users are not technically breaking any laws. So as long as the law gives them safe harbor for what they are doing we have to start thinking creatively.
The alternative is to start lawsuit after lawsuit just like the ones that hit YouTube. The issue there is that those things cost time and money, and many companies find that it is easier to just fight the battle behind the scenes to have their content removed than to start a lawsuit where the defendant is going to say that a user uploaded the content and they will now just have it removed and the judge will throw the case out.
This is all far more complex than most people would like it to be. In the end we have to come up with solutions that are viable and cost effective for everyone.
