As the RIAA's "sue your customer" [they're suing people who are downloading music from the internet ... they are not standing in walmart's electronic section and suing people who buy the cds there ... nub (btw, the RIAA deals w/ cd, cassettes and so forth...not mp3s... so mp3-dowloaders != RIAA customers] campaign begins to run into stiffening opposition and serious procedural obstacles it may be time to think about a "Plan B". A small levy on storage media, say a penny a megabyte, would be more lucrative than trying to extract 60 million dollars from a music obsessed, file sharing, thirteen year-old. [go here and read it first ... they're already doing that :/]

i too am opposed to riaa's actions, but i am quite fed up w/ these no logical rants people are spraying out against riaa (ie, "cds are too expensive, so mp3s are good and the riaa sucks" <~~ this is not an issue of pricing, it's an issue of copyright laws). i'm not going to say much about the riaa issue, because frankly, i don't think i'm schooled enough in the matter (kinda funny though how many other people, who are so ignorant of this situation speak up about it though :/ )
