Nice! About time the RIAA gets some payback! This is in court costs and attorney fees for falsly accusing someone!

Somebody sticking it to the recording industry is a great thing to see.

The RIAA and MPAA are dinos. Their tactics do not work in an era where their BS is exposed moments after sprouting.

Their tactics do nothing but spread distrust of the US. gov and the music companies have been harmed greatly as people turned away from them in anger either to pirating or recording from radios or alt music.

Half your problem is they are releasing crap managed cookie cutter music. I mean, after a kid turns 13, he is already bored of the same old same old. Where are the new U2's? Where are the new Pink Floyds? No where to be found in a world of managed music.

The other half of the problems is that music formats are changing and for once, they aren't in total control of the format. They did the same thing when tape cassettes came out in the 70's. When they had a bad couple of years of reccord sales, they blamed it on the people copying their reccords onto tapes and distributing them. This is the same thing all over again, except this time, their putting the resources of a multi-billion dollar industry against people who in no way can defend themselves in court against such money.
