and here goes my 1000 post...
Totally agree. While I understand TB got to do what they think is best for them that's fine. I can't speak for everyone who poll Yes, but personally for me, the best way I think to force people to play by the rules is show them that if you don't we'll take it seriously. If TB had won and own Braz and PH, then that serious and it will be a wake up call to alot of illegal tube to change and stop further freesite from consider becoming illegal tube.
But instead they made a secret settlement and force PH to use some digital fingerprinting. Ya, OK digital fingerprinting. If some is smart enough to put the fingerprint on the video, there is always someone else smart enough to know how to get rid of it. If I were to own an illegal tube today, don't even think I care.
Furthermore, even if they are successful in making sure that their stuff will not likely be online it not going to change anything. To win this they have to stop tube giving away stolen stuff, even those that are not theirs, because otherwise people will say OK sure TB have a Shy Love video but u know what I can watch another Shy Love video from tube. See there are already company that are successful at removing their contents, like Digital Playground. Try find Jesse Jane on tube and it very very rare to be found. But because there are "other" stuff similar to it on tube, people can live with that and watch it for free than actually pay.
So to win this war, I personally don't think you can do it alone. You need the whole community to support your cause. So far it not looking that way unfortunately.
