University Bows to RIAAs Demands for Student Names

jcgam69 writes "Hours after a federal court judge ordered Oklahoma State University to show cause why it shouldn't be held in contempt for failing to respond to an RIAA subpoena, attorneys for the school e-mailed a list of students' names to the RIAA's attorneys. But now that the RIAA has what it wanted, the group is unsure about how to go about sending out its pre-litigation settlement letters. Some of the students are represented by an attorney, meaning that the RIAA is barred from contacting them directly."

    D'oh!

    Cowed to court order, We'll curse your name;
    Oklahoma State, We hold you to blame.
    RIAA will find us-and we'll be sued.
    Thanks to our Alma Mater, O...S...U.
