Fast CD-R Drives Make For Twice the Piracy

Posted by michael on from the double-your-pleasure dept.

Bowie J. Poag notes this Register story about an RIAA copyright infringement bust in New York. The RIAA claims the operation had the equivalent of 421 CD-burners, which, translated from RIAA-speak, means "156 CD-burners but some of them were fast". How they expect anyone to take their statistics seriously is beyond me.

    Maybe they were daft enough to check their facts with the US Secret Service who for some obscure reason list protecting the President & Vice President as their first task. I realise that anyone dumb enough to think that the Secret Service knows more about what they do than you, deserves ridicule but hey, that's good old American arrogance for you.
