And again, if the service is getting the merchandise from private individuals for free and the corporation is unaware... they garner nothing. Youtube may have advertisements, but those that sued them obviously received no notification of theirmusic being posted, nor revenue until the suit was filed.
This goes back to why the site was sued in the first place. I cannot fault the filesharing site because they may have measures to remove the media. But it was those that pirated the media and illegally posted it that caused the issue. Please don't claim that the industry is the victim when it is the persons who stole the media are the ones responsible.
