As fast as I send DMCA's and they take them down they go right back up or show up on other sites.
The real way to win, is to get the Registrars to do something but they sit back and says its not their problem.

DMCA is not what I was talking about, you never going to win or accomplish anything by having to search the entire internet every day to try to find people stealing your videos and then sending out thousands of DMCA letters everyday.

But how often does that happen? In most cases the person will settle if you make them an affordable amount to pay. The ones that don't settle if it is too expensive to go after them then just skip them if you want. You don't have to get everyone. It's numbers / volume game, pick off the long hanging fruit that get scared because they don't want this to be public knowledge and that can afford to spend $500 or $1,000 to be done with it. Your only cost then is sending out letters once you subpoena them and get the list.
