RIAA to DoS Pirates?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the now-that-takes-balls dept.

_Chainsaw sent an article running at ZD that talks about the RIAAs latest plan to stop pirates: " We'll smother song swappers " is the quote, but it basically amounts to a Denial of Service. Way to go guys! Brilliant strategy!

    ...I've become angry enough about the RIAA bullshit that I'm now actively interested in pirating music.

    IIRC, Napster is pretty much toast.

    What's a good place to start to begin tracking down jazz, blues, world music, and seventies/eighties pop?
