It looks like the questionable actions of the RIAA in its attempt to curb internet file-sharing have drawn two more critics.
Harvard Law School Professor Charles Nesson and Wendy Seltzer, a fellow at the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard Law School, co-authored this article, which addresses the role which institutions of higher learning should play in working with the RIAA and the outdated notion of copyrights in society today. The article was published in The Harvard Crimson student newspaper on May 1, 2007.
The article also addresses points made by three Blair School of Music librarians in this letter to the editor of the Hustler on March 29, 2007.
The RIAA was recently named
The RIAA was recently named the "Worst Company in America" according to an online poll by The Consumerist (www.consumerist.com), just barely beating out Halliburton. Guess that's what you get when you make money by suing college students. I resolved to stop buying CDs months ago, and for the life of me I can't understand why any student would buy a CD anymore.
