And imagine the sheer creativity if "user upload" was actually user CREATED. People would actually be creating new content instead of simply using a software program to download it and then re-upload it to a pirate site.
In my opinion...creativity and innovation are being repressed by piracy. There just isn't much "creative" or "innovative" in stealing content that doesn't belong to you and/or making money off of it from the traffic it brings you (manwin)
