If so, did they use the mechanisms MegaUpload provided to report them? Did MegaUpload remove them when reported? If they failed to report them, whose fault is it?

Or if they didn’t know, how is it that they are able to determine now that the site is down?

And as far as I know those companies had all the time access to megaupload to take copyright violations down.

Are they out of their goddamn minds? I don’t even know what ValCom is and they want $42mil? How much will others ask for? Paramount? Sony? etc etc.
