Re: OT: RIAA and Their Law Suits

The RIAA can not possibly go after even 1% of the Users that have illegal mp3s. To do so would bankrupt them with legal fees. All they can hope to do is to (what should be) illegaly acquire the personal information of major mp3 distributors and sue them. This of course will do nothing to stop piracy, as you still have millions of Users worldwide sharing a small number of mp3s each, as well as all the non-American major distributors that the RIAA can not touch.

Unless you share 10000 mp3s on a high bandwidth pipe, your chances of being sued by the RIAA are probably less than winning the lottery.
