DWB

Yes, you *try* to derail the thread by asking the same old tired questions over and over and over again, knowing you're going to get the same answer. I'm pretty sure there is a word for that, doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

I personally don't have a lot of piracy issues with tubes anymore unless it's older DVD rips. Tubes are VERY manageable. Some of our new sites have gone over two years without a single video showing up on a tube. I call that success. While they get the most eyes, I don't believe they are the biggest source of stolen content. That doesn't mean they are not a problem, because they are, but I have reason to believe they will be dealt with when the time comes. But that time is not today and for reasons that may or may not be known to you.

Perhaps you don't fully grasp the full size of the file locker world, but it is beyond the scope of anything most people ever imagined. They simply don't get top Google rankings like the tubes do, but they host a lot more pirated content and it's more difficult to keep it removed. They never delete the source files and only rename them. File lockers should continue to be the #1 priority. Then move to tubes after the lockers are dealt with.

A plan without a focus is a failed plan. Maybe a lack of focus is what causes so many of you to fail in your job and life, but those with a clear focus usually succeed.
