Round Two for MPAA Lawsuits

An anonymous reader writes "CNET is reporting that the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) has filed a second round of lawsuits against individuals trading movie files. This follows the lobby's legal attacks on BitTorrent servers a few weeks back. A couple of commentaries on this latest legal barrage can already be found here and here."

    You trade movies, this can happen. This is exactly what the MPAA should be up to.

    Is there really anything new to be said about this that hasn't been repeated a million times before?
