RIAA Hitlist

I couldn’t find this when I looked around (though I am a pretty incompetent searcher, so that might be part of it), and I thought it was kind of interesting.

This website has given a small sample of the 911 people currently on the RIAA’s “hitlist,” by KaZaa username.

So…can’t they just delete the program and re-start with a new username?

If they’ve already subpeonaed those folks then their true names and locations are known. There’s no re-establishing their anonymity.

This is sure to win over some fans.

Yeah, I just want to run right out and by me some music right now.

It’s all part of the RIAA’s plan–make people even more mad at them, which then causes CD sales to drop even further. Blame continued drop once again solely on file-sharing, and then ask for even more draconian legal rights.

Yep, that sounds about right.

No. The base it off of your IP address which they can subpeona from your ISP.
I say it’s about time! God forbid Metallica or P Diddy can’t afford to buy a new Bentley this year.

Can we not have the same old stupid argument in this thread? There are a million pit threads, go read one of those.

<----never buying a CD again

Oh.

So they’re learning from Major League Baseball, then?
