Why doesn't the RIAA just stop whining and come up with a new distribution model. They will never stop people from ripping a CD onto disk and distributing it; lawsuits or no lawsuits. They will never stop people from seeking 15 songs (normally of which only 2 are any good) for free that they would otherwise pay 16 bucks for. If however they make it convenient, affordable and legal to take part in the industry people will. People have been copying music enmasse since tape recorders became available; to somehow think it can be stopped is naive and just turns people off. If they can seriously take on the digital distribution market then they'd slash their distributions costs to nearly nothing all of which can be used to benefit the consumers.
