I'd rather remove said material and only that, and only when the violtaion is proved beyond doubt.
If what is left after the copyright cleaning is a blank page, so be it.
But, if a site says "Hello" and posts illegal files, I firmly believe that the "Hello" part is to be preserved. Sharing copyright does not erase one's freddom of expression.
This site has lots of ebooks for download that are copyright in the UK (and probably other countries). Our new law that says it can be removed from the internet because of that copyright violation says nothing about leaving behind any non-copyright material.
