RIAA's New Approach

Last year two RIAA representatives came to BU to hold a Q&A session with students.  Though they had logical explanations to nearly all of the questions they were asked, my classmates didn't seem to hear them.  Throughout the entire hour and a half or so that the event went on, the reps were assailed by students who had never been sued themselves but had read or heard stories about lawsuits. 

I doubt this will help the RIAA improve its image, but if all ISPs are on board, I think it could dramatically decrease illegal downloading without further harming the RIAA's reputation.  I can't wait to see what happens!!

Meanwhile, Bono is a columnist for the NY Times and Ryan Gosling sings in a band - neither are half bad.
