To make the legal owners/creators of that property have to "jump thru hoops" is a short coming of the legal system. You either own the content you are using or you don't. It should be obvious.
To me an "uploader" is a thief and the site is a receiver of stolen property. I know it's a simplistic view but it's also correct. The two sides to this argument are those that create and those that don't. Those that don't will never understand.

Zada should have formed a group of legitimate copyright holders, but instead in his greed he apparently violated other copyrights with blanket claims including content that he did not in fact own. In a sense he was no different than the uploaders... only I guess you could characterize him as a "downloader" and the other side of the same coin.
