That if the FCC was shot down with regards to this, the MPAA wouldnt have much luck either.

How do you figure? The Supreme Court tossed the flag because they found that the FCC had no authority to impose the flag. The MPAA has the right to go after the sites because they (technically their members) own the copyright to the works that are distributed via the torrents.

There is an argument that the torrent sites aren't actually hosting the file, they are mearly just telling you how to get it. Is it a valid argument? Remains to be seen. But there is at least an issue.
