RIAA Exec Moves Over To Gaming Industry

Posted by timothy on from the shake-your-moneymaker dept.

NewYorkCountryLawyer writes "The same RIAA executive who defended a $222,000 verdict over 24 song files at an academic conference back in March, Kenneth Doroshow, is leaving the RIAA and joining the Entertainment Software Association ('ESA'). As I said on my blog, if Mr. Doroshow 'accomplishes for game manufacturers what he accomplished for the recording industry, I would say the industry's prospects are bleak.'"

    all that is left is Gen-Con... and frankly, even though I consider myself a moderate to "enthusiast" gamer, people at gen-con scare me.

    Sounds pretty similar to pirate insult sword fighting...
