And if he was disconnected, this was more than likely not his first letter.
Probably. But this is what the RIAA wants.... disconnect users.

If TWC is willing to lose customers over this (if you forcefully disconnect them they will go find a different ISP), I wouldn't be at all surprised if the other big ISP's do the same thing.

They are doing the same thing, and they aren't willing to lose customers, they warned this person, and we assume multiple times being he got cut off, but if he/she/it wasn't willing to comply with the notices, that's HIS fault, not the ISP.

You know why they want them to disconnect customers...So they can bring back the physical media economy they so desperately need to make money. If you cannot connect to the internet then you have to buy the physical media to continue to music or video your way to entertainment bliss. Of course this is not going to work but were at the next battlefield of the war, like to see how this plays out.
