RIAA Suit Rejected With Prejudice
yfarren writes "According to cdfreaks.com the RIAA has lost the case against the mother of a 13 year old girl accused of file-sharing violations." From the article: "The case was dismissed with prejudice, which prevents the case from being advanced against the defendant. Finally, the RIAA tried asking the Judge to amend the judgment in order to allow them to sue the child through a Guardian Ad Litem. However the court denied [the] RIAA's request."
that's it. just happy to see those fukers get what's coming to them. they steal our culture from us, so we steal it back.
If I take a picture of the Ford instructions on how to build the new Mustang and build my own Mustang from those instructions to give to my friend who wants one, Ford may have lost some money. Especially if I make 10,000 cars from these instructions and give them to 10,000 friends or random people I don't know. That isn't perfectly legal and neither is stealing music.
I think the prices are too high and very few people would steal if the prices were about $2.00 per CD or less... Kinda like this site is selling them at.
Why must the riaa (diliberate) sue for this... I currently have mp3s of Foo Fighters In Your Honor. I am deciding A.) Weather or Not I can afford the CDs yet. B.) Weather or Not my mom will approve. and C.) Weather or Not I support the theamatic elements of the music. If I find that A or B is against me, I will get it later... If C is against me... Ill keep what i want because 4 songs arent worth $20.00 But hey what do I know... Im only a 16yo with a lawyer for an aunt.
