Not impossible, some games do have dedicated servers. I think the reason there aren't many is because of the added cost of upkeep for the servers. It's just easier and cheaper to go with peer to peer.
The new game "section 8" for the Xbox 360 has the option for users to download software so that Xbox 360 users can use their computers as dedicated servers. I think this is a great idea and hopefully something that more developers pick up on in the future. Bop 2, I think, could use this to great effect.
