Not that I am aware of. I've NEVER seen a testimonial or case study that proves any degree of success.

You'd have thought that if one of the myriad of content removal places out there, one of them would have found just ONE client to say that it worked and their content is now not available on: forums, IRC, usenet, private FTP, lockers, etc.

Don't waste your money on something that you know you cannot fix. Spend it on making a better product.

I will make a bet here.

Use a content removal company for a month. Say they charge 750 bucks.

Look how your sales increase because of all the people that were stealing your content are now forced to buy it. *

Then give me 750 bucks for a month, and I will buy you some advertising.

See if that increases your sales more than the previous month.

I get it, IP owners are scared of piracy and think it equates to lost sales. No amount of money will remove your content from file sharing sites. None. So, do you want to piss money away on something utterly pointless, or do you want to increase your sales.

Simple really.
