now if the copyright holders were getting paid for that distribution, then it would be a different story.
in your magical world where, no one puts up a commercial free version, where somehow it so small that this would never happen but you could still get enough downloads to make money from putting your own commercials, the actual copyright holder would have first dibs on that income.
They could usurp that revenue stream by putting up their own commercial included version and legitimately demand that your commercial include one be taken down.
becuase your actions would establish the income stream that the law requires them to have first crack at
now if they give up that first crack then it a free for all because that is income they choose not to take and as a result represents no lost sale (because of that choice)

So why don't they do this to torrent sites that are listing their commercial free programs and selling advertising to the site? By your logic then the network should be due a portion of the income that site is making.
Oh that's right. Because the torrent sites aren't directly profiting from listing these shows. I forgot.
