Force them to keep record of all their users (full name, address etc), regardless of if they pay them or not.
and if one of them upload pirated content and get caught, their personal details will be handed over.
If they truly dont want to take responsibility of what is uploaded to them, then the responsibility have to fall on the uploaders.

They don't do this because a lot of the uploaded content was done by the owner(s). That gives them knowledge that the content was stolen which removes the DMCA protection. Not that it really matters because most aren't hosted in the US so they don't have to comply with DMCA anyway.
