Further, I don't know what deals they may or may not have with any given site at any given time, which would make the work invalid.
Remember, an invalid DMCA (crying wolf) is a violation and actionable.
If a program wanted me to do the work for them, well, that would be something to discuss. But randomly doing it for programs that may in fact have based their business model on leak down torrent traffic, well, I wouldn't exactly be helping anyone.
The real cost to do this for most programs would be lower in a year than skinning GFY for a week, and they would make more money back, I suspect!

You send the email to the content owner for them to decide if they want to proceed. If it works as well as you think it will you start to charge for the service. You have to show your belief in it first. Plus it would bring down the benefits of piracy.
The boards are a great place for people to tell other people what to do. And do nothing themselves.
