only 10% were using it to get access to content they never paid for.

if i were to for example purchase 3 day pass to milfhunter.com
i have purchased a right to view 10,000+ hours of content.
recovering any of the content i purchased a right to view falls in the same legal area as recovering a "stargate Atlantis" i forgot to tape on friday night.

but if you have an independent research study that disputes that i would love to see it.

but so far this is just another example of the abuse of fair use.
