I think you conveniently "missed" another important reason - these hosts pay uploaders per number of downloads, while the ones like Mega don't. The speed is slow on purpose to force users to buy premium accounts. The DMCA-resistance comes with the package either because the hosts can't afford to...

See my post above. Justice, one of the few Japanese uploaders still in "business", went MIA recently. This is a huge loss because he provided 30-50% of games every month and nobody has stepped up to replace him. Unless you're talking about an earlier point in time, then read these threads...

This is a very naive way to think about the situation. If I'm not mistaken, the 2008 arrests were mostly about unauthorized distribution of TV anime recordings (I think this is the first time someone got arrested for uploading eroge). Since then, the number of active uploaders has decreased and...
