Re: They're plenty bright

What I have been saying for awhile now is that they're beginning to make statements which call into question the very notion of ripping a CD you purchase for your own use.

They aren't saying it is "illegal" flat out yet, but as I see it they're staging things in such a way to almost make that argument.
Actually, the brilliant minds at the RIAA have already said as much, but then typically backpedaled when they were collectively laughed outta the blogosphere.

Ahh, good call. Forgot that one.

I was actually referring to the recent case where initially it looked like they were suing over the guy ripping the CD, but in fact it was for his distribution of it.
