Elimination by manual monitoring would have been difficult and expensive, but not impossible, particularly for images as obviously infringing as the ones at issue here. The evidence shows that Webb-world implemented substantial effort to combat the infringement. Notwithstanding its “compliance program,” Webbworld chose to continue to copy from a newsgroup that essentially advertised by its “centerfolds” name that it carried PEI images. After it was on notice of infringement, Webbworld chose to stay in business without implementing a system that would reliably delete even such obvious transgressions. Such an action constitutes willful infringement. See Broadcast Music, Inc., 855 F.2d at 236 (<HOLDING>). For the five copyright registrations
