Today the RIAA said they have sued another group of people, 482 to be exact, for copyright infringement. The RIAA used their 'John Doe' litigation process in this round of law suits, because they do not know the names of the copyright infringers. After appeals court ruled that Verizon does not have to provide names of customers to the RIAA, the RIAA started using the 'John Doe' litigation process.


This is getting ridiculous, Im betting they lose more money than they make suing everyone on the planet. They need to get a clue and realize people don't like paying 200-300% inflated prices for CD's.

I agree. This is getting downright rediculous. I have a strong feeling however, that soon this whole RIAA industry will crumble under it's own weight.
