I don't see Cohen's move as a particularily bad one for the P2P community at large. In fact, I think it gives BT a sense of legitimacy that does not come with crippling penalties.
The thing to remember here is that BitTorrent is a protocol, not a service. No matter what happens to bittorrent.com, BitTorrent itself will be more or less unaffected.
