The RIAA sues again 754 people

DamnedIfIknow and GristyMcFisty, both used our news submit to report to us that the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) has send out its Christmas gifts. Distributing music over the internet without permission is for the RIAA once again the reason to sue 754 people for damage because of copyright infringement. They will have everything else than a nice Christmas, when we consider that each will have to pay ábout US $5000.

The Recording Industry Association of America has now sued more than 7,000 people for distributing its songs over "peer to peer" networks like eDonkey and Kazaa, in an effort to discourage the online song copying that it believes has cut into CD sales.
