So again. Does the "Available tech" clause mean you have to apply it or content owners have to? I think this is something you need to be very clear on as it might negate your safe harbor regarding DMCA.

Are you saying you can't remove the content of a LAW breaker as this will harm your safe harbor? Would love to have a lawyer give a ruling on this. Because I don't see any selection going on. You don't select his content, he broke the rules, his content goes.

Good point, you might own the license to the content Bryanc uploaded. Do you own the license for all the other scenes he uploaded? He has to be in house either on the premises or off to be uploading licensed content.
Would be very interesting to know if Top Bucks is licensing full scenes to Tube sites.

People will start to accept you if they see you're really trying to remedy the situation. Not hiding behind phrases like "For all you know". Or saying "it's the weekend", you must be able to get into the back end and see if this guy is part of your operation or not.
I'll check some more of his content and come back. Because it gives people an idea of your integrity and Top Bucks.
