Kent, this is serious and it's not the RIAA who will be on trial, it's not even being charged as copyright infringement - they are charging them with a felony violation of Georgia's Racketeering Influenced Corrupt Organization law(known as RICO). For those who don't know, these are the laws normally used to prosecute the mob and organized crime. This is really a police state type move in my opinion, and much more serious than the RIAA just suing people. ~David

Record Industry Bad. Tell me something we don't know. I hope DJ Drama goes to trial on this because he'll make chimps out of the RIAA. That's one thing about liking techno -- you don't have to hold your nose and buy major label releases, because there are none.
