Everyone seems to forget one important point when being sued by the RIAA. The music downloaded has no identifying copyright markings either in the file or on the recording itself. Therefore the highest form of abuse from the RIAA should have been relegated to a letter saying, please erase the file you (may have) downloaded, because we say (without evidence) that it is copyrighted. Since when do we go on assumption of copyright? Anyway, just a thought.

The Judge said:
This nationwide litigation campaign has been seriously detrimental to the fair administration of justice and the public policy….

between directv and the RIAA that was 60,000 sued. Real damage “has” now occurred to justice and public policy. A court views the Plaintiff and Defendant
as equal but nothing could be further from the truth. If there litigation war chest were equal, then we could have equality. Because the defendant can never have
the money needed, the Plaintiff simply wins in this David and Goliath match. Deeper, due process is lost because of money for litigation costs. Bottom line, where
people do not have equal access to justice, then justice itself fails. When justice fails, it then becomes an eye for an eye once again. In the eye for an eye, David
killed Goliath. The RIAA and Directv has not come to realize it yet, but what they have done will cause many people to settle matters outside of court as for most defendants, they have found justice absent especially where the innocent person was sued. Hope they like there new world.
Copyright holders can and do also steal, here is my web site where a copyright holder stole then used there copyright to sue the victims.

It’s a government, what do you expect? Government exists to exploit and control the people. It always uses its coercive power to favor the highest bidder, which is, you guessed it, the RIAA and MPAA. And AIG, GM, etc, etc…..

Surely if this had been any organization other than the RIAA, someone there would have gone to prison? It sounds like their breaking the law all over the place and have ample grounds to be shut down.

I mean, just how bent is the American government?
