I see the pain and theft. God this totally sucks, here's another one with a nice twist. I used to work for one of the companies under suspicion here. Out of political correctness, I will not say who or ID any sites. I get, or used to, killed from hotlinkers like fusker and many Asian surfer BBS. So trust me I know the cost of thievery well. Maybe not at a Producers level, but none the less it did cost me in BW.
I went thru this site and found things from many of my sponsor programs I sell. AmatuerNetCash, GhostCash, BangBros and more. I also found that if you click for the "Get Laid..." on this static image you end up directly on a program mentioned here in this thread. I have seen this on a number of these sites. Come on coincidence, be real people. Especially when that is the sole sponsor.
Okay now consider this. Not every Tom, Dick or Harry (or Sue - equal rights here) has the server reserves, not to mention the toss away cash to handle hosting this amount of content in hopes to make enough sponsor cash to survive and pay bills. Damn one legit site we like YT is owned by a huge cash cow. Be real some big program owns or funds these thieves. When you see but one same sponsor on many of these sites doesn't that make some suspicious?
Now it gets really interesting
These guys now want to offer the owning parties a cut of the pie?
Isn't this kind of blackmail or hostage like. Honestly now if you don't agree they will still run your content and care less. Talk about a sick way to extort your content, they really show it with their "Membership" option. Surfers join to see your content. You get a friggen penny a minute. I cannot see why for any reason any sponsor would condone torrent sites. Torrent is nothing but theft. Shit talk about forcing a content provider into a deal
Maybe someone wants to question the 2257 legitmacy and copyright records via the Gov. Either way torrent sites are homes for thieves. I want nothing to do with them or sponsors supporting them using other programs material. The sheer size of ones hosting the material warrants a question of who is financing this illega practice? When a site as this has one sponsor, only one conclusion can be drawn. Now say well they are hosted out side the US and exempt. Fine, but if they are connected in any way to a sponsor in the US that is void.
BTW I am not new to advertising and the industry, but if you want to take a shot feel free. Ducked shit slings before.
ALOTI
