I believe that copyright laws do protect the media producers somewhat. These laws do not stop people from downloading movies, TV shows, video games, and software. But I think that it does discourage them. Some people have been caught downloading media illegally and lawsuits with hefty sums have followed.
So I think that copyright laws are there to discourage people than to rather stop them altogether. As for as the lawsuits go, this can encourage or scare people to actually buying the media. It's not worth pirating media just to get fined millions of dollars later and possibly ruin your life. It's way safer to do the responsible thing and buy it yourself.
