It's a win / win situation for both parties. Offending tube site replaces full length content with sponsored content and owners of copyrighted materials get traffic, and no small amount of traffic either.

Now, if you DON'T believe that these file sharing / tube sites aren't willing to work with you, think again. Tube/file sharing site owners are scum bags, they can get away with displaying your content, which means they have absolutely NO incentive to remove it. Give them an incentive and they will work with you. They want to make money just like anyone else.

Business 101. You have a potentially valuable asset, you can either fight a losing battle or you can come up with an amicable solution. You also have nothing to lose, if it doesn't work, go ahead and send out a million DMCAs. When your content goes away and then comes back a few weeks later, well, go ahead and send them some more DMCAs.

If you don't believe me, hit me up on ICQ. Don't want to go into specifics.
"Pay us or we will steal from you." --- that is extortion, my friend.
