RIAA to sue Students with access to high speed acess to Internet2

Posted by geeknews at 4:09 AM on April 13, 2005

They will never learn, no I am not referring to the students I am referring to the RIAA. I am thinking go ahead keep on suing college kids and pissing off people who will probably never buy music in a music store again.

I am hoping that college kids across America start turning off traditional media and start tuning into independent music artist not under the control of the RIAA.

What is unique about these lawsuits is that they are going after college kids that have access to the very high speed network knowns as Internet2. I guess they can probably share music and more easier on these high speed networks. [DesignTechnica]

    I agree Todd on the the Indie music. the RIAA has not yet realized that the way people play and store music
    has changed and the white elephant they are defending with all the Lawsuits is headed for the burial ground rapidly. By the way, internet2 is only accessible on university and lab settings…how did they gain access?
