Suing Your Customers a Good Idea?

VB writes "Boycott-RIAA is running Fred von Lohmann's article which looks like the ideal answer to solving the P2P problem. He suggests setting up a payment system similar to SESAC, ASCAP, and BMI, collecting organizations for songwriters. This seems such an obvious solution and a great way to get artists paid and give listeners the right to listen to their favorite songs cheaply and keep them out of jail. Why wouldn't this work?"

    Hiya kfg,

    I've posted here since /. seems to prevent me replying to your post from last month; sorry to anyone else reading this, it has no relationship to the RIAA :-)

    I tried your idea of making a stew so as to be able to prepare dinner quickly. I made a Massaman curry on monday night, and through the week it only took about twenty minutes on the other days to bring it to the boil, add cubed potato and cook up some rice to go with it.

    Anyway, it worked pretty well. It was quite nice, and very quick. So thanks for the idea :)
