"Content provided by.." Could be interpreted as mere distribution. I did not write the statement, and do not have it on any page on any of my servers. I did 'produce' the page in the ccbill interface though, so who the hell knows...

One might say that your video editing service is indeed creating a product, thus making you a producer. Don't even get me started on designers....

Since even the attorneys cannot agree on definitions and how to proceed, I don't expect you & I, neither of whom are qualified counsel to agree.

Some companies are burying their head in the sand
Some companies are claiming compliance when it's obvious they are not
Some companies are retooling their business model and following the directives to the best of their ability and their respective interpretations.
Some companies are willing to put profits over the safety of other human beings.

It really comes down to each company evaluating their circumstances, and making a decision on the level of risk vs reward they are willing to accept. Is a company willing to gamble certain things, are they prepared to live with the consequenses, and odds. It's a personal decision that each man or woman must make for himself.

I think that we can both agree that a message forum is not the place to obtain legal advice.
