No one is saying web hosts should monitor the content hosted on their site. Once notified of an infringement, however, it is their legal obligation to act. They're the only one who can remove those sites that infringe on others rights. Plagiarism is a rampant problem.
I agree that once served with a DMCA the host should act, and not ignore it... but to say they are liable simply for having a client who isn't doing the right thing is something I can't agree with.
