Okay, now my constructive contribution to this thread:
DMCA them.
Start with any single torrent site that has AFF on it and your material. Take screen shots, you will need it. DMCA the torrent site. I know this is likely worthless, but it is a good start. DMCA their hosting company as well.
Now the real stuff: DMCA AFF / Cams.
Quite simply, they are contributing to your content being stolen, providing financial support to those who guide and provide access to the material.
DMCA Google. Any time you see a torrent site with your material on it, DMCA Google, and ask them to remove that site from their listings. Based on the most recent Perfect 10's ruling, Google will likely be very responsive to your missives. Make sure you indicate specific pages you have seen your material listed on, with screen shots.
DMCA AFF's hosting company. Make sure they are aware of the situation.
Do the same with any other advertising company you find on the page. You will almost certainly find AdBrite or similar on there - potentially even Google.
Send a letter to the RIAA and to the Motion Picture Academy. Let them know that a company right in their back yard (AFF / Cams) is actively providing financial support for torrent sites. Let them know the steps you have taken. Encourage them to contact AFF and ask them why this is the case.
At some point, one or the other of these companies or groups will get advice from a lawyer that they are compelled to take action. If things go according to plan, that will include trying to stuff a legal broomstick up AFF's corporate ass.
Don't just bitch - take action.
