Sue your best costumers

Inter­net: The RIAA threat­ens law­suits. Again. From the Seat­tle Post-Intelligencer: “‘The record­ing indus­try is not going to win if all they do is sue peo­ple,’ said Gigi Sohn, pres­i­dent of Pub­lic Knowl­edge, a Washington-based advo­cacy group on tech­nol­ogy and copy­right issues. ‘They can sue all they want, but that’s not going to make CD sales go up.’”

But if more users keep shar­ing more copy­righted files online with­out ade­quate pay­ment to the artist, who’s going to record any new music? Musi­cians have to eat.

This will get really fun as more peo­ple share entire movies and DVD sets.
