Ok, let's just clarify this here....

said by Cary Sherman, RIAA thug:

"We're going to begin taking names and preparing lawsuits against peer-to-peer network users who are illegally making available a substantial number of music files to millions of other computer users,"

Hmm, hey Cary -- you mean those who are sharing music files where the copyright is owned by one of your member companies, don't you?? Thankfully the RIAA members don't own copyright to ALL music...although it might be 99.999%...
said by Article:

The RIAA believes the popular peer-to-peer services, which allow users to copy music, movies and other files from each others' hard drives, are partly responsible for a decline in CD sales, and has aggressively sought to shut them down.

Partly? Partly? You mean ENTIRELY...at least in public. In pretty well every hearing thus far the RIAA have discounted ANY other reason for a decline in CD sales other than piracy.

Who, what, gives the RIAA the power??

How can they just 'sue' people. Can't anyone counter sue them for something - hell in this country you can sue anyone for anything these days.

Aren't the people who work for RIAA scared to leave there house? I mean how many deaths threats have been sent.

Everyone and I mean everyone despises them. wtf if it was legal to kill I think they would of been "put down" along time ago. That's how pissed off I see someone people. I agree totally BTW
