New Round of Lawsuits in Preparation for Oscars

An anonymous reader wrote to mention CNNMoney's coverage of the latest round of MPAA lawsuits targeting end users. From the article: "The civil suits against unnamed "John Doe" defendants seek up to $150,000 per downloaded digital file and come as the film industry prepares for its annual Oscar telecast in Hollywood where awards for top films and stars are given out."

This is of course the MPAA we are talking about... you know, the folks slightly more sane than the RIAA, but still both less crazy than your average /.er.
