RIAA Continues Insane Jihad
John Robb had a great comment: "That a puny $20 b industry is on a path to potentially cause $100 billion ++ in damage to the US economy based on less than $1 b in suspected damages defies reason." Wired has the specifics on the lastest path the RIAA has taken. The problem is that we stand on a slippery slope. It's a case of them claiming an inch and taking a yard.

I am convinced that companies view consumers as a needed evil. Between the morons of Baseball, to the RIAA/MPAA, we have seen many examples of people doing business in spite of the abuse they heep on customers. Whatever happened to "The Customer Is Always Right?"...mj
