That's not true.
The film industry isn't being attacked by the sharing sites the way porn is. They are more concerned with torrents, and they should be. If you want to see what they are doing about it do a search for "HBO" and "Infringement Notice" on google. Believe it or not that tactic is working pretty well for their content. More will follow suit since Comcast, the nations biggest cable company is playing ball with them.
The music industry is just waking up to the problem. They move very slow. They are still formulating the plan of action. Don't take their inaction as inability to stop these sites.
The adult industry is the hardest hit by these file sharing sites. This is a new enemy that can be fought. Remember, we have the biggest call to action weapon on our side. Stopping child porn is the hottest hot button topic you can possibly raise. We want to see it stopped as much as the politicians and all does... the good part about it is we know when and where the infractions take place. This file sharing site threat steps right in the middle of that by hosting the worst stuff possible.
IMHO adult has more ammo in this battle than the film industry or music. If this battle is fought the right way stopping these sites should be a cakewalk.
