Another victory against the MAFIAA! Hopefully with new legislation coming up that extends the RICO Act online, we'll see the RIAA go the way of John Gotti:

I have nothing but utter contempt for the RIAA.

The music industry has got to understand that they are selling
music, not pieces of plastic. Whether it's sheet music, shellac records, vinyl LPs, or whatever, the buyer wants
music, not the physical embodiment of it. I have a collection of several thousand CDs. I'd be happy to download music for a reasonable fee instead of buying a piece of plastic at a record store.However, the music industry insists on treating its customers as crooks.
The software industry used to do that, with all kinds of copy-protection schemes. They finally gave up because software purchasers rebelled. The music industry needs to learn the same lesson.

The RIAA is a criminal organization.

RIAA only cares about the big boys....the recording companies.
They don't do jack for the artists and composers unless there is something in it for themselves.
Unless they have really changed since the 60's, they remain a mob-dominated organization.
