Comment Reality ??!! (Score 1) 636
I been reading the comments and really think some poeple suffer from a lack of reality.
1. RIAA is only pressing cases against people that share files, NOT people downloading the files.
2. The isp has the current subscriber records for billing purposes and RIAA is after that.
3. Exactly how do the paaniod people think RIAA can see what their downloading? THere is no easy way but RIAA can download illegal songs which it makes easy to sue that person.
4. Most studies of P2P networks suggest that 1% of 1% of users share 99.9 % of the files. Strange thought there, humans being selfish and greddy. :)
5. RIAA has ony to sue 50% of 1% of 1% of illegal P2P users to stop the problem.
6. From the article in NY times the formula to win this lottery is unknown. It does appear that the cutoff point is 150 songs.
7. And answer this question, Do you ever want to pay for music. My guess is no. The music houses didn't blackmail the artist, they presented an contract to the artist and the artist signed it.
