Sure thing. If Viacom wins and proves that Youtube can and does filter the videos before posting them then it should make is to that the DMCA no longer matters for them. I will open them up to tons of other lawsuits. Which would then, potentially, lead to other like site having the same type of situation. You could start finding more web 2.0 sites having more accountability for their content which should shrink the amount of content on the sites and cause more people to pay for content.
