RIAA Claims P2P Has Been Contained

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the desperate-spin-control dept.

Magorak writes "USA Today is reporting the RIAA now claims that the issues surrounding P2P and piracy have been contained and are no longer as big an issue as they once were. From the article; 'The problem has not been eliminated,' says association CEO Mitch Bainwol. 'But we believe digital downloads have emerged into a growing, thriving business, and file-trading is flat.'"

    So, the RIAA is saying that they have successfully crushed independant artists everywhere, with frivolous lawsuits?

    That's all this was about...crushing indy artists, and stopping new technology so they keep their monopoly.

    It's time for another Tim Mcveigh.
