A law professor fires back at song-swapping lawsuits. More power to him. Is there a place to donate to help out? I would give money to a cause like that. These ridiculous RIAA lawsuits threaten the livelihoods of many Americans. Just having a teenager download a song illegally on the home computer can result in a suit seeking thousands from the parents. This has happened many times. Of course, Congress is not helping matters, which makes sense I guess since the RIAA donates heavily to them. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act needs to be modified or simply struck down, but it would be better if our legislators would solve the problem, rather than creating more headaches for every American. Generations listened and recorded off their radios with no problem, but suddenly CD sales drop and record companies have the right to legally bully anyone into paying out thousands to help cover their mismanagement, all because they got Congress to specially write a law allowing them to do so? What a joke.
