It seems as though the RIAA is getting really aggressive now. About 90% of the songs I've downloaded yet so far, have been fake MP3's.

Ok so... i'll be lenient with the figures.

40million sharers
75 prosecuted a day...

It will take
533333.3rec : Days to get around to everyone.
17777 : Months
1481 : Years...

Ok fine.. but consider the fact that new people are added daily.. and that there are probably 500mil pc's that are using kaaza or other p2p progz or will at somepoint..

Just ignore the message and carry on doing what your doing! ^^

"Many of the subpoenas reviewed by the AP identified songs from the same few artists, including Avril Lavigne (news), Snoop Dogg and Michael Jackson (news)."

I think they are attacking users for bad taste.

Nice post actually but it reminds me of a very bad western movie of which I can't remember the name but I remember this gambler guy threatning 3 bullies with a small 2-shot gun and one of the bullies has a revelation:

Bully: "Hey, he's only got 2 bullets, and theres 3 of us!"
Gamler guy: "Yes that's true, but the question is, who of you are ready to die first?"

I agree with the match above
but don't forget that the people
on the law side could double and triple or multiply their efforts by 10.

that is a small number though relative

ahahaha- I've had it minimized and downloading shit wide open, for the last 2 hours while I've been working. I got paranoid and shut it down after reading this.
