ahh yes...
"The RIAA declined to comment on the studies, saying that different groups used different methodologies, and that it was impossible to compare them accurately. Its campaign had been undeniably successful in teaching people about the legal issues surrounding file-trading, executives said."
- in other words, you acknoledge that these statistics are meaningless, btu use them when they show soemthign favourable to you?

Overall; atleast they are prodecing in a legal manner now... even if they are just wasting money on a fruitless venture. rather than playing the market and making practical descions liek offerign a good product for a fair price, they will attempt to lobby and litigate to keep an artifical stranglehold on the industry... i wonder what happens when some of these names pop up and they are peopel in the industry or law makers who are charged?
