Difficulty can make a big difference. If uploaders have to start making bootleg recordings using camcorders, cleaning up recording artifacts and lighting/reflections from the recording environment and fixing lens distortion etc, all to end up with a mediocre bootleg recording...then I can guarantee you piracy will become extremely rare.
Popular movies might get the attention and work needed. But good luck for random Youtube videos.
