the RIAA are simpley attacking P2P downloading becuses they can make MORE money if its gone, CD salls have not gone down....they've gone up! and the RIAA knows that they can make money from trying to bring it down! as for sueing people for downloading music that is just another money make scam, this is no longer about the music.......its about money and a lot of it.
