Torents can be "difficult" since they don't host any actual content. But all the file sharing sites can definately be stopped. For example, Microsoft seems to be pretty successful at getting those sites to remove that DRM hack program etc.
This industry isn't pro-active. It's mostly reactionary and lacks the will to do anything because they can't see a direct line between the money it would take to battle it and an increase in revenue... But we all know it's there, you just have to look at what's happened to the music industry. It's not a matter of increasing revenue, it's a matter of maintaining current income levels.
A few of the big companies could jointly form a small firm who's sole purpose is to seek out the videos etc. on these sites and flood them with legal notices all day long. They could also flood companies like AFF and all the ad companies etc. with notices as well... But I don't see it happening. Instead, they'll continue on their way until their revenue is impacted enough that they'll be forced to take action. At that point they'll be playing catch up and it will take them longer and cost more money.
