They can't financially afford to go through with this. Most of it is just a scare tactic. They realize if they go after someone, there will be a class action suit filed on behalf of the people they are going after and legal fees will eat them alive. I don't condone stealing, but when a corporation controls all channels of distribution (think albums and books) and they charge ridiculous amounts of money for their product, people are going to react. The RIAA needs to get a clue and figure out how to keep up with the times rather than trying to drag us back into the Stone Age.
