jesus christ, the girl is 12! leave her alone, and take your lawsuits someplace else. on top of this, they are also suing a 70 year old man. his grandchildren probably downloadd some songs into a shared folder, and now grandpa is going to pay. It is getting out of hand. I am all for a boycott & protest. I would like to see the riaa crumble and fall. no more big labels would be nice. more "artists" and less pretty faces would be better.

I'll do a quick look for GPL / Open Music License artists.  So far all I know of is Magic Mushrooms (death metal, they have an (shudder) mp3 on the knoppix iso...) and Twisted Helices.  (Their lead is the guy who wrote the Open Music License.

There are quite a few "mainstream" bands out there that do not care about people downloading their music. In fact, they put it on their sites. Most artists make their money off of touring anyways.

To be fair it's no worse than them attacking anyone else. Unjustly suing kids is no worse than unjustly suing adults.

yeah. they shouldn't be suing anyone. but to fuck with a 12 year old girl who thought what she was doing was okay? sorry, but that is going too far.

For their defence, I doubt they really knew that they would be suing a 12 year old girl. It's not that they actually intend to sue children; they probably only got the address from their ISP and filed a lawsuit, without really knowing whom they were addressing to. Face it, I don't like the RIAA very much, but even the most unethical corporation  would know better than suing a child and risking a public relation disaster.

12, are they pedophiles?

When they are targetting 12yo girls they have gone too far.

It's not that bad, it'll all blow over soon

SCO will go bankrupt

The RIAA will raise the tariffs on CDR's and go away to hide in hole

Bush will be voted out for Colon Powell  :D , That would be COOL!

Linux will grow and take over the world, with OSX by its side......BSD can come too

and all will be good, just goto sleep for the next three years.....
