They must be profitting in some way from their websites. Why run a website with tons of videos in the first place? For fun?

Just because the swiped vids aren't sold individually doesn't mean profit isn't made from them. But it's not really about the profit that the non-creators are making...its the customers their taking away from the people that worked to produce the video.

Now here comes the lame argument "any exposure is good exposure"....
