But you're not doing the suing. The RIAA is suing, on behalf of/representing,
the music business, isn't it? And aren't they suing the people who buy music, ie, customer base?

Are you saying they don't sue people that ever buy music?
Or people that buy music never copy their buddies disc?

My objection is they have huge war chests and legal staffs that steamroller over everybody in their sights, just because they can. I never will approve of "let God sort 'em out".

Then they want the power to destroy my PC if they suspect I have pirated music. There would have to be a payback for that.... just couldn't let that slide.
