The only reason I can see for them to be doing this is economics. They had to have been spending more on legal fees than they were making in settlements and actual court cases. Doesn't seem too unlikely as people were starting to get less scared of them and refusing to settle and even counter suing.
So now they are "cozying up" to the ISPs which is certainly a craftier strategy that doesn't have to cost them much at all. Comcast is already looking for any excuse they can come up with to do away with flat rate unlimited data movement. They'd be all too happy to collude with the recording and movie industries to put anything you download on your bill.
