It also depends on the nature of the business, a trademark only protect you within the area where it's registered.

If your trademark included "digital downloads" you have a clear case, if your trademark say "adult / erotic / xxx entertainment" it's more difficult as it doesn't compete with "illegal activity", however you probably have a good shot as they are involved in illegal activity.
