You will never be able to enforce your claim against big corps, the best you can hope for is to be part of a bundled lawsuit.

In that case the org handling the case will get millions while you end up with a few dollars.

How is that relevant? Many 'wrong' things happen every day, and most will go unpunished. That has no bearing on the 'wrongness' of the act.

If you believe the copyright is a moral right, then your inability to enforce it, or large companies blatant disregards for your rights, doesn't make it copyright infringement any more OK.
