Comment It's working . . . (Score 1) 600
I go to the University of Kansas, and I'll I have to add to the mix is this: what the RIAA is doing is working. Very well, as a matter of fact.
I hang out with a group of people that I would call, somewhat technologically savvy. And by that, I mean they understand computers enough to use P2P clients like Kazaa, Morpheus, etc. A very large percentage of those people have either deleted all of the music off of their computer (the less savvy) or removed the P2P software from their computer. And this is ALL because of the way the RIAA has gone after every single one of the individuals on its hitlist, 12-year olds or otherwise.
I hate to say it, but the RIAA's tactics are working better than I ever expected.
