The core of the problem isn't torrent sites, p2p, or any other sharing programs. The core route of the problem is broadband. As broadband connections get faster, the more the damage will be done. Entire site rips are available at a plethora of sites, several DVDs worth of material or more. Back in the 56k days getting that kind of data would have been nearly impossible but now... it is just a few hours away and having quite literally months of content. Shutting down site A isn't going to do a bit of good when a brand new site can be up tomorrow thanks to a steady influx of people willing to "share". There has to be some solution to this problem, and it needs to be found soon. Suing sites obviously isn't the answer that's for sure.
