I think the RIAA is a bunch of crap..

They always say the musicians should be payed for their work.. they should and they are by the record company's not by how many CDs they sell.. They make their money on tour so all the RIAA does is make the record companies richer by suing people and scaring the public about downloading music. The record compaies are the ones who get the money from the CDs not the people who made the music.

I am not promoting downloading music, but it doesnt really affect the Musicians but it affects the people in power in the music industry.. so i say do anything hurt those jack offs any way possible.

I believe it is about the money - as the ultimate goal. Scaring people through lawsuits is just a means to that end.
