I'm sure the big ones are still raking it in but this can only hurt...

Actually, there is a silver lining in all of this.
PartyGaming is trying to sell Party Poker, if someone like Harrah's, or MGM/Mirage were to buy it, then they would work on getting it regulated.
If they could set it up so that the main offices were in Nevada instead of the Isle of Mann *pokerstars* or Gibraltar *Party*, with all the servers in a huge warehouse in the desert. Tack on a regulatory commission, and the ability to seek legal recourse if necessary, I believe you would have players coming out in droves...you would have new players in fact, and those would include the people who were worried about dropping any money online in the past.
