New RIAA File-swapping Suits Target Students

Fletcher writes "The Recording Industry Association of America filed another round of lawsuits against alleged file-swappers, including students on 13 university campuses. The 750 suits come just a few days after Internet researchers released a study that found peer-to-peer traffic had remained constant or risen up to the early days of 2004, despite the pressure of recording industry lawsuits."

    Yes. Pain of Salvation is an awesome band. I've loved all their albums, though I still haven't been able to get into their latest, Be.

    and recycled paper is really a scam...do you realize the polution that recycling paper causes from just getting the ink off the paper...the sludge it creates?

    Actually, recycling itself is a scam...except for aluminum cans. It's actually cheaper and more cost effective to get aluminum from recycling than it is from hauling it out of mother Earth.
