excerpt from the article:
************************************
In what’s rapidly becoming a major issue on- and offline, through their RIAA 
(Recording Industry Association of America), the Big 4 are claiming just 
about anything you do beyond merely playing one of their music CDs is illegal 
and can land you in court facing fines totalling hundreds and thousands of 
dollars.
Ask Jeffrey Howell, another Big 4 victim forced to act on his own behalf 
because he can’t afford a lawyer.
