About 1/4 to 1/2 of 1% upload 80% of the content on tubes. So it's that 1 person out of 200-400 who steals in a way that matters.
You capitalized PAID. Since they are thieves, they will of course use stolen passwords whenever possible. So controlling password theft reduces site ripping.

In my experience, most legit customers of pay sites are collectors. They want to own ever pic and vid of girl x.

On the other hand, thieves who rip the site and repost everything download every pic and vid of every girl on the site.

That WOULD be be dumb. Treating the customers as customers and treating the thieves as thieves is smart.
