least WAY BETTER than those hand held cam videos that people download
Bluray rips are nearly always already available in the Warez scene before Netflix even added the movie.

Piracy will always be around because those companies such as NetFlix have "control" over users or want to. Piracy doesn't have that problem.
There is actually many services such as NetFlix that revolve around pirating material. They make it easier for users to stream over their mobile , computer , TV. I can't show you, say the name, or link to it because that would go against this forums rule.
Piracy (Quality? Speed? Bandwidth? Service? Price? Release Time? Content?) > _NetFlix_ & Others.

That's only because netflix and other CO, don't have agreements with movie studios to stream it RIGHT AWAY. But if they did (at least for movies), why would anyone try to download a rip?
I'm not saying that piracy will end but it will be a lot smaller in numbers than what it is today.

The movie industry could literally near completely end piracy overnight just by allowing easy, affordable, DRM-free (use fingerprinting or something so you know who to sue), 1080+ streaming of almost anything, on same day or couple days after release schedule.
But due to licensing/legal/old people, this is not going to happen, and they will sit back and cry and complain about their "loss"

If neither party is in the U.S., then what ever gave the impression that you could use U.S. copyright laws and takedown procedures to address the problem ? The Netherlands are a WIPO member, so they have WIPO-compliant copyright legislation in place to handle your request, but you must follow their procedures.
You are clearly not an attorney, perhaps you should hire one to show you how to handle copyright infringement issues. Complaining that Leaseweb did not honour your invalid takedown request is never going to change the fact that they are not bound by the law you mistakenly quoted. It is very foolish and risky to act in ignorance of the law, and get you in even bigger trouble than the web site operator(s) you're trying to contact.

I usually don't like Leaseweb (although I have 2 servers with them against my will - they bought Netdirekt) but this time I'll make an exception.

@OP
Only the Dutch court says the file is illegal, then it IS illegal to Leaseweb.
BTW, can you tell me the name of the China hosting company you mentioned, i'll give them a fingerhello there

DMCA has no business in europe. Europe has it's own laws regarding this. See European electronic commerce directive.
(Yeah didn't read the whole thread).
I hate it when people keep insisting DMCA trumps anything and is a global law (World law), while it is not. I guess ignorance is a bliss.
EDIT:
What i'm trying to say that any self respecting EU citizen will straight /dev/null DMCA requests and only act on those which conforms to EU/his own country's law.
50%+ of the DMCA requests i see are false, 90% of them have been made hard to read (ie. missing line changes), 100% requires to breach some serious customer privacy laws, 100% of them would require me to know customer's law and rights, along with possession, with a myriad of other issues.
So basicly, acting on the DMCA notices which has no business in EU, would require me to take illegal actions, proactive monitoring of customers (prohibited by EU ecommerce directive!), take responsibility for customer actions on their behalf, and last but not least: Open me to some serious jail time, especially on the breaches of personal privacy of customers.
There is EU and local laws concerning these, if they want material taken down, they have to follow that law, and i'll happily conform to the requests, to the extent of our law. But i'm not going to commit crimes to bow down to the media monopoly overlords and let rampant censorship and violations of personal rights to go on.Last edited by NuCode; 03-19-2012 at 02:50 AM.
