Dropbox doesn't pay uploaders of content. It also prohibits content from being shared on piracy or warez related services. Different animal.
It's worth noting that having a rights holder content removal module or service does not exempt you from legal action pertaining to the infringing content.
It's also worth being clear about your business model. You trade on the fact that infringing content is uploaded and lots of it. You play a game of risk, you know some content will need to be removed via the DMCA process but you also know much of it wont be. So you reward uploaders for uploading and make profit from selling the content that isn't removed.
We will allege that such conduct with aggravating circumstances is criminal and you will eventually be brought to account in that regard.
