My, this is getting old. Seems like the RIAA has come up with yet another way to squeeze every last penny they can out of the college crowd with bullying pseudo-legal tactics. Instead of dragging the "infringing" student through the inconveniences of the courtroom, he can just agree to settle beforehand to pay out $3000!
Part of me wonders why the RIAA keeps up these morally reprehensible shenanigans. Aren't there people, and not monsters, at the RIAA? The other part is looking squarely at the dollar sign on my keyboard. It seems that in the light of the recent counter-suit for attorney's fees that the RIAA came out on the loosing side of, they have decided that proving a student (or other poor soul's) guilt is just too much... justice. What a convenient way to supplement that declining revenue stream of CD dollars!
