NC State Stands Up to RIAA

Posted by kdawson on from the don't-mess-with-the-wolfpack dept.

NewYorkCountryLawyer writes "The Technician Online at North Carolina State University reports that its Director of Student Legal Services, Pam Gerace, has advised students to remain anonymous, and has indicated her office's willingness to challenge the RIAA's subpoenas. What's more, the newspaper urges students to take Ms. Gerace up on her offer. The fighting spirit of Jimmy Valvano lives on."

    It has long since stopped being about protecting copyright. It has become about making money. I can understand how one can be tempted to try and earn $3000 dollar for a standard letter.

    Just don't buy RIAA music. It's not that hard. I'd put my usual links to a dozen sites where you can find great independent/free music, but you guys can probably find them yourselves.

    'Course I can never resist linking RIAA radar:
