With one famous exception, they all remove content with a valid DMCA claim. It wouldn't really be feasible to do it proactively, even if you could find an expert in copyright to do it for you. User generated content will always create problems like this. Removing problem files when notified about them by the copyright holder is really the only practical way around it.
