The real key at this point is getting with google and yahoo. They have enormous power to remove the profitability of these ventures, making the thieving pretty much worthless. These sites exist only to snap up search engine traffic and profit from the stolen content.
I think that the owners of Quick Buck run the risk of being contributory infringers if they don't take action to reign in their "rogue affiliate" or at least stop them from making money with this stolen material.
