I certainly hope you're not proposing any sort of regulation of tube sites, I know all of us pay site owners are required to comply with a number of overly burdensome regulations but I hope you don't expect tube site owners to dedicate any of their valuable resources to ensuring compliance with any type of regulations. How would you expect them to maintain any decent profit margins if they were required to operate under similar regulations that currently govern pay site operators. Next thing you know, you're going to suggest that they be responsible for proactively policing their "user uploaded" content and removing full-length videos of well-known models/producers submitted by "random users".
Wondering if anyone here has approached this issue from an "unfair competition" standpoint. Obviously producers/copyright holders have no recourse for copyright infringement but it would seem to me that an "unfair competition" suit would be pretty cut and dry.
