"RIAA will not pursue legal action if infringers delete all unauthorized music files from their computers, destroy all copies (including CD-Rs) and promise not to upload such material in the future."
How generous of them...

I'm sure that in the contract the RIAA will put (in .1 size Wingdings) that if you do anything the RIAA doesn't want you to do, then you'll be prosecuted and given the death penalty.
i have to admit, this really to me seems to have the same feeling as the situation that the desperate sco has done, with the "linux invoices" that they're sending out.

Wow, RIAA is going to rob 261 virtuous people of their life savings to no effect whatsoever. I should be going wild with joy.
that's sick and tired of having songs illegally downloaded and shared over the World Wide Web.
Is it that hard to figure out that no one wants them to exist?
The lawsuits, which did not come as a surprise
Indeed, it does not. They've been blackmailing the real world with these lawsuits for months.
Until now, the RIAA had focused its legal threats on actual P2P sites.
Napster was neither, but I guess that happenned too long ago for the Fux audience to care.
Monday's lawsuits were filed in federal courts around the country by the Recording Industry Association of America (search) on behalf of its members, which include Universal Music Group,

BMG,
Die die.
EMI,
Die die die.
Sony Music
Die die die die.
and Warner Music.
Die die die die die.
Also, there should be a comma before the last [and] according to my religion.
More waves of lawsuits were expected, and the total could eventually reach the thousands.

You upload Mahler files? What, protesting the outrageous amounts of money paid to first violinists at major orchestras? The obscene profits at classical record labels?
Dont mean to pick on you BG, just i always assumed the filesharing is mainly pop music.

interesting. they say there's a promise not to upload... but if there's nothing precluding them from downloading...
right - the whole strategy is to go after the uploaders, not the downloaders.

How can they possibly enforce this? Since things like Kazaa are P2P, isn't it an infringement of privacy laws to snoop in on what they are downloading? If it is, wouldn't they need to get a warrant for everyone who's files they check, and then prove that the copy of the file on a harddrive hadn't been paid for?
I have a lot of tracks on my comp which are pulled off my CDs (which I bought legally) just because it is inconvenient to keep sticking in the CD. I imagine everyone does. I don't need to keep a proof of purchase for my toaster (or whatever) just incase the cops come round claiming it is stolen, so why do I have to for CDs?
Also, isn't it legal to let someone borrow a CD, as long as they aren't making money off it?

What would you do? They are trying to stop it by enfrocing their copyright. If you did this with a book in a store, something similar would happen.
