You can also (with a bit of programming) stamp the video file properties with unique member ids so if the pirate is able to decrypt the video file url and upload to torrents, you can trace back to the member.
Of course, a very very clever thief will easily bypass all this shit

This, and get CCBill to periodically rebuild all your password files. Members of my networks get access to every website so it's one password file, which is easier to keep an eye on for me. They just did this earlier this week for me.
Blocking countries like Russia, China and India (along with many eastern european countries) can help. Do some research on where the majority of your Members come from.
Lots of people use proxy servers and VPNs so as not to be seen viewing porn. Family, job or religious reasons maybe.
Finally, if you don't already, employ Remove Your Content and have those guys monitor your stuff. Each month they will take down literally thousands of links for you.
PS: Old-school tip. Watermark your vids on the lower-left corner instead of lower-right corner. This is for Members Area vids only. This way, the pirated stuff will be easier to spot plus some tubes do not allow such watermarks (they all want it on the lower-right corner) so they would inadvertantly help. Plus makes it easier for companies like RYC to spot stolen stuff. PLUS it helps with branding since lower-left corner is unusual so more memorable.
