The music industry has finally given up on suing people who are illegally sharing music on the internet. This ends the controversial lawsuits filed by the RIAA against P2P users who share copyrighted materials on the web. The lawsuits average around $3,500 and has been filed against minors, housewives, and even deceased people in the past.

The RIAA has pursued a different route to control the illegal sharing of mp3s. They have stopped sending out lawsuits last Friday and has talks with numerous internet providers to give out warnings to illegal swappers and cut off their internet service when they fail to stop.

I think this is a more sensible approach to this never ending battle of piracy. If you can’t stop them with a lawsuit, then stop them from the source. No internet means no sharing. And no one has to pay a gazillion dollars in attorney’s fees.

This talented dog picked up a few tricks from her master. Hopefully she has earned enough credits to pursue a master’s degree in doggy music.
