The producers of child porn aren't people operating a business making child porn to sell and that's just their day job.. The only people who would even consider making child porn are the people who want to view it, so I don't think the demand argument applies here.
Adult abuses child and makes a video of it for their own reference, then uploads it would seem to me to be the most likely scenario, not adult films another adult abusing a child for profit but actually is against child porn.
If there was no demand for child porn, is the adult who would do the abusing in the first place stop just because they're not going to get as many downloads on bittorrent?
Removing the demand for child porn isn't going to stop people making it, stopping people from making it is going to stop people from making it.
