Internal MP3 Server? 1 Million Dollars Please

Posted by chrisd on from the these-are-not-the-oggs-you're-looking-for dept.

nkruse pointed out that our pals as the RIAA are breaking new ground. According to this Reuters Article, the RIAA has succeeded in collecting 1 million US dollars from Arizona based Integrated Information Systems. IIS apparently had a corporate MP3 repository on it's network. This is the first time I've heard about the RIAA doing this kind of thing. Looks like they're taking a page from the BSA handbook.

    It has to be... uh... stable! Yeah, that's it, stable.

  2. IIS Secure???? by tutal · · Score: 0, Redundant
    One of the products offered by IIS, ironically, included software that provided secure distribution of copyrighted digital material.

    You gotta be kidding me. Are they inferring that IIS is secure? Unless I am misunderstanding isn't IIS that which runs M$'s web server etc?
