So, cutting up a teazer of someones copyrighted material and putting it on my site to sell the full video is technically a violation of the law.

To sue any one of these sites that has stolen content is going to cost about eight grand to just get the ball rolling. However, I suspect that once the initial letters are sent the videos will get pulled and you can settle for the cost of legal fees. Anyone got the balls to do this?
True dat.
