RIAA to college students: stop hurting capitalism
Didn't the RIAA try this before? And did it stop the file sharing and downloading of music? Not at all. But here we go again. The RIAA has sent 25,000 students scattered around 25 colleges and universities complaints about their online music-harvesting behavior. Schools with the most offenders include the University of Nebraska, Purdue, Ohio (absolutely nothing to do up there in the barren Midwest, huh?), South Carolina, and Tennessee. RIAA president Cary Sherman sticks up for the tactics, saying, "We have to let people know that if they engage in this activity, they are not anonymous." Because college kids today, with their MySpace, Facebook, and LiveJournal accounts, are so into anonymity.

It's funny, I didn't know that multiple artists selling several hundred thousand albums in a week's time was deemed "hurting capitalism." So i guess the goal is to, what, not sell records anymore?
