I thought the RIAA / MPAA / MAFIAA were suing google just recently for making money off of piracy and saying they "support it" though ad-sense. - »Media Companies Accuse Google Of Supporting Piracy
Seems to me that these fools need to do several things here.
#1. Get their heads out of their asses and stop being such a freaking dictatorship. Lord knows that I and everyone else f*cking hates these guys for just not getting with the program
#2. Be 1/2 way smart in their understanding of technology in the 21st century not the 12th century. Every corperation from GM to Ford to Sony etc. keep needing to adapt and develop in newer markets in order to survive, I don't see these guys budging an inch in their draconian pursuit of ruining fun and removing rights from the public and artists.
#3. Change their image (like that will ever happen) and stop making broad sweeping statements that hold no validity in the court of law (not to mention in the publics eyes). I keep seeing a "woe is me" attitude coming from these guys while at the same time their buddies are ready to stab you in the back as soon as they get the chance.
I just wish that the RIAA / MPAA would get with the picture and realize they have a broken business model, that stealing from artists in an almost MAFIAA aproach is not helping them, and that by being total dumbasses when it comes to technology and the press that you almost hope these guys suffer a Darwin award or have someone push them over a cliff into a vat of molten lava.
p.s. Taylor if you read and reply with some answer along the lines of "throw them in jail and burn them alive" all I have to say to you is I hope you realize your digital rights are all but gone thanks to these guys. Not from piracy, but from their own stupidity and greed.

Study: P2P effect on legal music sales "not statistically distinguishable from zero"
A new study in the Journal of Political Economy by Felix Oberholzer-Gee and Koleman Strumpf has found that illegal music downloads have had no noticeable effects on the sale of music, contrary to the claims of the recording industry.
