@Cupid while I do agree with you, I believe they do credit their CC creators in their Youtube Videos so its not necessary to force someone to download each item individually just to give credit? If that is the case I have been "modding" incorrectly for years I suppose?
Being listed or mentioned in a credit simply doesn't compare to having people visit your site or blog to get your content. It doesn't really allow the creator to be acknowledged for their work in the same way. There are people who download these large folders of CC, and love it, but don't even know where it came from and I can see how that might be a little irritating from the creator's point of view. Visiting a site and clicking a download link is practically effortless compared to the work that went into making whatever you're downloading.
But I don't want to get into the ethics of it at all, I just thought I'd explain why it's so hard to find uploads like that.
