ok first off... the RIAA cannot (and will not) go and sue everyone with a CD burner with a couple of CD's. for all they know you could be backing up your computer with those blank CD's. Second, it'll be a waste of time to go after a bunch of small fries like these when they can go after Best Buy, CompUSA, Circut City, all the Chain stores which sell those things. its a waste of time for the record industry to go after that kind of shit when they can sue almost EVERY GODDAMN AVERAGE JANE AND JOE IN THE COUNTRY!!!!

Actually I think they would go for the manufacturer rather than the retailer. ;)

This made me laugh out loud !!! :lol:

Consistency is clearly not one of RIAA's strong points, is it?!

It reminds me of the time when AOL (whose owner Time Warner is a member of RIAA and MPAA) had a advert in one of the UK's national newspapers, saying that if people sign up to AOL broadband, you can get faster music/film downloads !! :lol:
