Re: WTF? Scared their real tactics might influence a jury.
I would think ANY juror they find that has never listened to music, never been on the internet, never seen a portable music player would be hard pressed. Or deaf, dumb and blind. Which is EXACTLY what RIAA wants!
RIAA=intimidation=extortion=terrorists!

U.S. District Judge court Nancy Gertner agreed with the RIAA that the U.S. 1st Circuit Court of Appeals should review her precedent-setting ruling, which would allow the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at Harvard University to livecast the hearing.

And prior to the Emancipation Proclamation, no black man was ever free, as well as prior to 1920 no female ever voted. Yunno, all change isn't bad....oh wait. I forgot whom I'm addressing. You'd probably love it if the U.S. still had black slaves and disenfranchised females.

Re: No Federal trial has ever been streamed live the RIAA has a weak case and uses illegal data gathering tactics. they dont want all this broadcast live, they want to make sure the only thing the public sees is the Sanitized for Media version.

I see no difference between the live feed of this pretrial hearing and the streaming of Congress or is the RIAA asking that the press and spectators be excluded from attendance and the hearing be held in "closed court"? In both cases the proceedings are being make available for viewing to whoever wants to watch. |
|
| But, their stated purpose was to EDUCATE Didn't the RIAA argue that the purpose of the lawsuits was to EDUCATE the public? I mean, that's what they originally told the judge. If they want to educate the 'tech-savy' public (i.e. downloaders), then by definition, wouldn't this be the best way to publicize the evils of downloading? Oh, wait, unless, of course, they have no legal standing with their lawsuits, and they are terrified that the public finds out. The **AssAsses only rule through ignorance and fear. A lot like the Bush Regime. Before bush, we didn't have the US Gestapho, and life was good. Bush, also, feared the educated public, because he and the anti-christ (cheney), didn't have a LEGAL leg to stand on, just like the RIAA.

Baton Rouge, LA | Heh Why would the RIAA ever want to do anything that is new, different, forward thinking, or fresh?
Besides, everyone knows that the RIAA is not really doing this for "educational purposes" as they have stated in the past. They are really doing this to protect their dying business model.
You really think they want people to see the truth? |

kudos:2 | $1M?!? Seriously, they should've said "you now owe us $150 for sharing the songs, to cover the royalties for the people wo downloaded from you" and had done with it. Extortion? Yes, but t wouldn't have ended up like this... |

Let someone else be the guinea pig. No trial was ever televised until television was invented, either. Once the technology was there it began to happen, as did televising of sessions of Congress.
The RIAA isn't worried about technology, or about someone editing the content. They're worried about looking like horse's asses to a big, live audience.

kudos:1 | Statements Taken Out of Context? Is it that much more difficult to edit and make changes to a court transcript of the hearing and plaster these words all over the blogosphere? I don't even have to be remotely tech-savvy to pull out excerpts that would negatively impact the RIAA.  |
|
| They're worried about editing? Wouldn't it be easier to edit a text transcript than edit a video?
