Have we considered SWIPing the blocks?
A DMCA notice is not necessarily a violation caused by the registrant of the
IP, but perhaps one of their users.
I've had DMCA notices for unused IP's before, so not all are valid. However
90% of them valid and are people running bit torrent for movies and stuff.
How many DMCA notices are you getting from 44/8 on a monthly basis?

Probably most of you folks haven't seen one of these before.
This is the kind of notice I receive and have to respond to
when one of the users of network 44 misbehaves.
Keep in mind that this is a violation of our terms of service and
is cause to have network access revoked.
Please be careful not to cause me to get more of these.
Thank you.

PS: I've obscured the IP address because the matter is already
being dealt with by the persons concerned.
