Comment Re:How to fix file sharing piracy. (Score 1) 185

Forum gets takedown notice. It's much easier to reupload a file than it is to buy an extra domain name and move all your files to that server and convince users to come over as well. Most forum moderators actively delete content for this reason.

I never said this took care of 100% of the problem. However, it would make files harder to find for Joe Average if he had to search through shady forums and click links that don't describe the file he's about to download. It would also help absolve any liability for the file hosts as the file isn't clearly marked as illegal.
