I hate to admit it but your right. It is an impossible task to try and take down these sites. As for Rapidshare, Hotfile and the other file hosters. I can't see there being much hope there either. Because what's to stop a file being shared under a coded name? example: (model name) "My Poser House" gets shared through Rapidshare as "Pauls Wedding". How would Rapidshare and the others manage to spot that one unless it has been reported to them?
And then there's the torrent sites like Demonoid and PirateBay etc. And what about file sharing in countries where prosecution for copyright infringement is nigh impossible?
It is  totally unrealistic to think that a coalition of interested parties would have the collective power to even scratch the surface of copyright piracy.
But there is one way I believe the industry can make some inroads and increase revenue at the same time. And that's by making sure that prices remain competitive enough that the majority of decent people can afford to buy your products.
I believe the vast majority of people are decent and law abiding. So keep it within Mr Averages price range and he/she will continue to spend their money without the need to resort to piracy.

Just my opinion!
