I never saw an industry thrive by suing it's customers. I hope this scheme ends up breaking the back of the industry. The only ones who prosper are the scum bag attorneys as usual. This is a better scam for them than a class action suit.
Customer: A person who purchases a product or service from a vendor.
The RIAA isn't suing their customers, they are suing individuals who steal the music (Steal: To take without payment).
