cmdshft Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 So what does this mean in the long run? No more DRM? Will music piracy surge because of this? There's so many questions that will need to be answered... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's so many questions that will need to be answered... Did music piracy ever slow because of the RIAA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Nonny Moose Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I think it's slowed a little when they started suing people for downloading stuff. Most of the time, they're only going after the big fish in the pond, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmdshft Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 It never slowed for me, personally, but I think it did when the RIAA started throwing the DMCA in people's faces, especially Universities and their students. Which is a large number of people at that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idividebyzero Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 The only people who were actually scared of the RIAA were people who never downloaded anything anyways. So they dont count. The only thing the RIAA was able to do with get big places to block P2P traffic, which werent that many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLiDE FTW!!1 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 I think it's slowed a little when they started suing people for downloading stuff. Most of the time, they're only going after the big fish in the pond, though. It never slowed. In fact, it got bigger. It only made Americans think twice about sharing.
