Obviously it's going to evolve tomorrow regardless of what's done today to stop it. Shutting down access via big ISPs to every torrent site, file sharing site and streaming site will still put a HUGE dent in piracy for a couple years which would = billions in every industry.
True. ISPs could be the last straw. But they're scared to do so, cos they know another ISP won't be so leniant = customers go to them or just use VPSs/RDPs. You have to be seen to stopping pirates... but what is a vast majority of your customers are pirates? You all have pirated, haven't you? I don't believe anyone here hasn't had an illegal copy of movie/audio/pdf/mp3 or seen an illegal stream etc... and the general public is the same. It's a brutal cat-and-mouse game. I feel for the small content producers. It must be crippling.
