If that what it costs to run a service, then no.

your saying the only way the host could be protected safe harbor provision was to destroy my backup even though they could remove infringing access by simply changing the password and notify me.

the people using megaupload as an onliine backup with zero distribution (keeping the link private) are within the bounds of fair use and are therefore not an example of infringing material.
So in instances where 500 people upload a cinema recording of "Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol ", clearly an infringing upload and not currently available for sale.

The Filehost should be able to bundle all 500 copies as one, issue links as normal - and should they receive 10 take-down requests, only pay attention to those, disable those 10 links but leave the remaining 490 links live ? - is that what you're saying ?
