More than that
---The RIAA and MPAA aren't going out of business - they are
making just as much or more than they ever did.---

Cd sales are up 8% this year, despite the continuous growth in
filesharing. Seems to me there's a flaw in the RIAA's arguments.

---Think about it - they target university students - you know
the ones who don't have money to spend on their crap anyway.
Its not like if these things get shutdown that the college
students are suddenly going to rush out and spend all of their
loan money on CDs and DVDs---

See my post below and the linked story. They're going after the
students because they want to blackmail universities into buying
their very expensive subscription service. It's one step along
their proposed path to you paying every single time you hear a
song.
