I feel the pain of Young Goddess. They were a great site and they indeed did appear to provide regular updates as all good sites should.
However, their monthly subscription prices while being very competitive clearly did them selves no favour. YG had one of the cheapest monthly signup options that I remember, which is fine if the number of people actually signup make it worth while.
I tried that approach and it doesn't work.

I've been battling piracy like everyone else and sometimes the thought does cross my mind like "fuck it, I can't be arsed any more!" But I am determined not to let the bastards get the better of me and it often becomes a game. A cat and mouse game that I'm not prepared to lose, chasing one guy round for weeks getting dmca notices sent out several times a day, even on Christmas day.

I've stepped up my personal battle and I've resorted to:
a) banning visitors from Russia using GeoIP and Strongbox
b) Having Throttlebox installed to monitor what every member downloads and limit users that appear to be excessively downloading or ripping!

Both of these tools have become invaluable and have already helped counteract the issues that I've been facing.
It's unfortunate that legitimate users may get caught up in the battle, but I personally do not want to spend Christmas next year chasing Russian file sharers, nor pay the 60 Mbps bandwidth overage which I am facing this month!

Yes this month has been one of the worst months ever for me dealing with fraud and piracy. However, sales have been good this month and the incentive to fight continues.

Call this adapting or simply taking precautions, there are ways of dealing with it. Where there's a will there's a way!
