Leaked MediaDefender Emails Show Student P2P Traffic Down

Posted by Zonk on from the they-are-tending-not-to-copy-that-floppy dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The MPAA and the RIAA have been targeting universities in a fury claiming that college students are causing them huge losses. However, some leaked MediaDefender emails show that may be a huge exaggeration. 'I also want to state that I am not for the illegal sharing of files. I am absolutely against it. I just want to make sure that the numbers presented in the media are fair numbers. I have a feeling they aren't fair at all. '"

    Artists get the benefits in the form of increased sales down the road and financial security, while the RIAA essentially weathers the piracy for them. They put their capital on the line to fight piracy, they own the copyrights, the artist has and continues to be paid, why shouldn't the RIAA take the money?
