As far as Gunner:
Name me a tube site that doesn't respond to DMCAs. So far every tube I've ever sent a DMCA to has responded and taken action.

Name me a file hosting site (Rapidshare-esque) that doesn't respond to DMCAs. They all do. They want that Safe Harbor protection.

So what does that leave? Torrent sites. So far I've only found a handful that don't respond (Pirate Bay being the biggest). Perhaps you haven't been watching the news recently but Pirate Bay has some bigger problems on their hands than my DMCAs, they're facing a year in jail and a 3 million dollar fine, not to mention selling the site. So let Hollywood go after the ones that don't respond to DMCAs. The harder thieves resist, the harder the rule of law will crack down on them.

Here's the other problem with your thinking. You're also assuming that the average internet user will embrace torrent as the predominant way to to get porn (since tubes and forums do respond to DMCA). It's not AS easy as clicking PLAY on a tube site, and there is no financial incentive like there is with rapidshare. Your average internet user knows how to click PLAY, but there is no instant gratification with torrent sites. People have been able to get free porn from usenet for seemingly ever, but it never caught on with the masses, nothing did until the tubes came along.
