RE: What the RIAA really said.

I really should read an entire thread before commenting. Sorry for the
redundant outrage.

This is interesting. This says that the placement of any copyrighted
material into a shared folder is illegal distribution, yet every
networked windows pc has their entire hard drive shared by default (\C$)
And iTunes places my ripped music into a shared folder (shared by other
iTunes clients on my network, and yes I use iTunes for my iPod). For
that mater one could easily argue any computer that can be accessed
either locally or remotely is "shared" So really, ripping to your
computer is still illegal.

On a side note, I fully support the payment of royalties on copyrighted
material. But I hate the RIAA, not only for their asinine behavior
towards their customers, but also the abhorrent treatment of the artists
who produce their content. (over simplification I know)

I received this link from another list. It does clarify things.
