RIAA Walks Away From Another "Discovery" Case 164

Posted by kdawson on Sunday January 18, 2009 @09:12AM from the seeking-the-light-switch dept.

NewYorkCountryLawyer writes "You may recall that the RIAA walked away last week from one of their 'discovery' cases seeking the identities of 'John Does' who attended Rhode Island College. We have just learned that they walked away from another one, BMG Music v. Does 1-14, in Greensboro, North Carolina. 2 of the 14 John Does had settled, but the other 12 — who hung tough — will never be identified to the RIAA lawyers and will not have to pay any 'settlement.' This adds fuel to the debate over whether the RIAA has finally seen the light or is still sneaking around in the dark."

Alas, it is regrettable that many people have gotten to confuse the available features of the various iPods. I work in a university campus computer store and we deal a lot with selling iPods and Apple products in general, it's now become common practice for all of us (the staff) to have to go through about a 5 minute spiel about the features of each iPod and what you can actually do with all of them, which to many of the student's surprise, is quite a lot.
