Some people (like on the "Porn Professors" show yesterday) are speculating that it will be a large sponsor entity that they go after first, but I doubt it. I think for the reasons you mention, they're gonna almost exclusively go after smaller operators who can't afford the high-end adult industry lawyers to defend them. Small busts can make big headlines, and the pressure to cop a plea and take a large fine and maybe a 60-day jail term (again, for what - picking up the missus right at the time the feds come knocking?) will be greater, so it may be a long time before this gets challenged successfully.

I admit when it comes to government, I'm a pessimist, but mainly because I have too much first-hand knowledge of how it works.
