Default Will RIAA attempts to shut down broadband ISPs be the death of P2P?

With each passing day more and more talk is generated of the RIAA getting broadband ISPs shut off for P2P users.
Here are a few examples

Will this trigger a fear in P2P users that, combined with the SSSCA bill, will signal the ultimate victory of the RIAA and MPAA?
Personally, I'm surprised these corporations have the brass to go after individual users, which is a move I'm sure will hurt there public relations once this information goes mainstream.
Is this how it all ends?
