HiDee Bro D et al!
Yeah, maybe it is "Kinda Tough" to bust a Grannie for rippin' off 3 songs. But don't forget how MANY Grannies are OUT THERE, Bro. It doesn't take TOO many before Tens and Hundreds of THOUSANDS of Illegal Ripoffs have taken place..all by those "Innocent Grannies."
Betcha that Innocent Grannie takes control of her computer from now on...& whatever way WOULD ya get the word out that Ripoffs ARE Illegal? (Lord knows, RIAA HAS tried many a method..earlier.)
But..ya nail a few Grannies..& suddenly Folks ARE Aware. (& here we are, Debating about it!)
My own guess is that Overseas Ripoffs..CD Labeling-&-all..are even bigger than Domestic Ripoffs..& we need more Retaliatory Response to countries that ignore Copyright Conventions.
But, yeah, it's easier to collect the Nickels & Dimes here at home that the Bigger Bucks abroad...for now.
As for crooks having "a right to privacy"...if they weren't crooks in the first place, who'd need to look?
& the argument that the RIAA should start after "the BIG Fish first" rings hollow, too. ANY fish is quite worthy for fryin'..& definitely Word Gets Out...& hopefully Folks Get Honest again.
Oh, & let's not forget there's really NO Guarantee of "Privacy" on The Internet. (Whatever made you think there WAS?)
Big Guy-Bug, Stan
