I appreciate Allison and Nathan trying to explain this, its a step in the right direction. But one step in a hundred mile walk can be very discouraging. I have a few questions.

I watched the whole Montana Fishburne sex tape on SpankWire a few weeks ago. I checked a day later and the video was still up and had over 100,000 hits. I finally contacted Vivid and they said they would get it taken down. That's 100,000 surfers that saw a video that they should of paid $29.99 for.

Since Spankwire is not responsible for user uploads (and I assume it was a user upload) will the Tube sites help hold the uploader responsible for the copy right infringement?

If Vivid is not part of the program will they have any recourse or will it be the status quo? user uploads video, million people watch it, producer sends in DMCA, movie is taken down, on to the next one.
