I quickly read through the indictment, but the gov't claims that when given a takedown notice, MU would only remove the 
*link* and not the file itself.  They specifically mention some movies that were still on the site years after the notice, 
thus negating MU's eligibility for safe harbor.
As you say, interesting for sure with the dotted i s and crossed t s.
