What major points would you personally suggest to focus on?

I am a content maker and own a VOD site. I have MOST of my movies pirated by various nefarious tubes and file sharing sites. However, I am NOT a geek so I do NOT undesrtand how it all can work.
Years ago have hired manual "up-loader" to post short watermarked clips to legit tubes as promotion for our site. We also employ a person who manually scans Internet daily ( using various combinations of our domain and titles of the individual films) for our stolen content and is authorized to issue DMCA notices. So far so good.
In order NOT to cause our legit tube clips to be DMCA'd we have a simple policy:
1) Any of our content on any file sharing site is DMCA'd without exception.
2) Any of our content which is NOT watermarked anywhere is DMCA'd without exception.
3) Any tube content which is watermarked and shorter then 15 minutes is deemed legit.
I have NO idea what your plans are and how to plan to figure it out, BUT:
As a step 1) If you can figure out some sort of auto scan of domains and titles and ID the sites which illegally post them would be the biggest step, since the manual search is too slow and exacting.
Then as a step 2) some sort of automated form which would include link(s) to stolen content ( see step 1) and DMCA notice would be of the essence. ( there would have to be human interaction between step 1 and 2 in order to avoid erroneous take downs).
The last step ( step 3) would likely have to be manual/automated tracking of the actual removed ( or ignored) content. This would have to have some sort of human intervention.
Anyway, as I have said I have NO clue if any of this is at all feasible, but looking at the whole thing:
Step 1) would have at least 50 % of the value of the service.
Step 2) maybe 30 %
Step 3) about 20%
If you have any questions fee free to ask
