RIAA wins case in Minnesota?

People still use Kazaa? Ever since I found out about torrents and rapidshare files I haven't touched one of those p2p programs ever since.

While the RIAA certainly does have the law on its back, you'd think that their tactics in dealing with these people (tactics that in my mind at least amounts to financial terror tactics) would galvanize the jury to nullify. But I guess some people are simply okay with allowing these kinds of terror tactics to continue.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

While it is most certainly within the RIAA's rights to sue people for infringing on their copyrights and denying them their very hard earned money, why are they targeting everyday users and not say, the groups that rip and release the pirated music or shut down the servers that host the pirated music? Because as far as I'm concerned in my opinion the RIAA isn't making itself look any better by targeting these everyday people with these lawsuits with these 6 digit figure settlements (that for most of the people targeted in the lawsuits probably can't afford anyways) in an attempt to basically scare and intimidate the rest of the populace into submission.

How ya doing, buddy?
