I recently 'retweeted', but forgot to post here, a link to a funny piece on "Popehat" about the "success" of the RIAA's 5-year plan.
I don't want to quote any of it, because it's pretty short and should be read as a whole. So when you're ready for a laugh, be sure to put your coffee where you can't knock it over, then go to:
"Dizzy with Success"

Funny piece on "Popehat" about success of the RIAA's "5 year plan"

The RIAA has a habit of citing our blog to judges, so please keep comments dignified and worthy of the important issues we are discussing, in keeping with our comment policies. If you see a violation of the policies, please let me know by email. You can post anonymously, but must sign off by giving us something to call you. Conversations among several people called "Anonymous" get too confusing. Thanks. Best regards. -Ray
well, given that the IPFI boss (the international arm of the RIAA) claimed under oath that he believes that every song infringed would have been legally payed for if only the "for free" competition would not exist, this achievement seems to be a real success indeed. :-)
