So, let me get this straight. The RIAA illegally downloaded music from her computer and then sues her for allowing it to happen? Didn't they break the law and by doing so made her an accessory? I wonder if the RIAA paid royalties on that download. If I break the law to prove that you will allow a law to be broken; is that okay? I don't think so. If I race my car on the streets in order to lure my neighbor into racing me to prove he races his car on the streets, I don't think the police would let me off. Hmmmm… So, let me get this straight.

I am a huge music fan and actually still go to the record store a few times a month. That said, I do not support what the RIAA is doing to its customers and never will. I hope they loose lots of money trying to police P2P. The amount of money they try to get from people is just crazy and unjustified. LOL.
