DDoSes, on a massive scale, are very hard to deal with. Look at what happened to SCO and windowsupdate - both of those are highly publicized cases that most people should be familiar with. In both cases, there was nothing that either company could do to stay online in the short term - the strategy was to move servers to geographically redundant locations, making use of many upstream providers, and provide each bank of servers with filtering hardware and plenty of bandwidth.
