I hope she does cause a hudge blow in the RIAA, because once that is done it will open a door for everyone else.

The first problem is that ppl need to realise that the RIAA are; Sony, Universal, Warner & EMI, then maybe ppl will know what companies to boycott for continually being anti-consumer and using very dubious means and probably nine times out of ten illegal, as they conduct their business.

Sounds like the judge is biased in this case. A motion for a new judge and venue will undoubtedly be next - and in order.

this may well be true - I don't doubt it - but if we boycott them what else is left ?

Yet most people will never know or care. The sad fact is you might get.. 5 people to boycott them through Afterdawn.

R - Really

A - #$%#$%#$ fill in your own word
I am so tired of the Riaa they have a warrent to search within the state of california only not any where else so where the hell do they think they have the right to search servers half way across the world build fake bittorrents to track people down and arrest them they have no legal right this is a country with freedom of speech not hey lets rape everyone who downloads a song and if the riaa is so worried about it then they need to continue to produce older albums with these record labels then people will stop downloading songs.
but no the riaa is a bunch of morons that couldn't win a case if it ran them over.

Guys, hate to be the voice of reason here, but this country is RAN by big business, the ONLY way to end this madness is to 1) boycott the companies mentioned earlier, or 2) wait and hope that they will see the light of day and embrace modern technology. Remember that media entertainment is this country's chief export! This person has ZERO chance of winning this.

Big business has it's own worries. As the US deficit grows daily, in the not too soon future, the US will be very bankrupt, and all the people will be left without. A very possible chance for a socialist or even communist government to take over. Big business no more, everything nationalized.Hence no more Riaa. A very scary thought.

well many indie artists that cant catch a break because the RIAA continue to push their manufactured rubbish down our throats using tools like "auto tune" on the latest big breasted/six packed teenager that they can get to sign contracts that basically state all the money goes to the RIAA.

what happened about drm on cd's and now digital downloads once the interweb public opinion became widespread? all this is thanks to Sony's continual anti-consumer tactics rootkits XCP but now sony are licensing media, which will be the next public outcry as they state you don't own it any more and you are not allowed to sell, lend or even give their media away.

WRONG! Three of those 4 big record companies are owned by other interests. Their corporate offices are to be found in those three nations that were called the AXIS Powers during World War 2. So they have the ability to harass people in Japan Germany, Italy and the rest of the European Union member countries too.
Everybody knows that they don't have such an easy time in places China, Russia, Mexico and South-Amerika - none of which belong to the EU or must obey it's laws. The only US owned RIAA member company is Time-Warner, which also owns things like CNN news, HBO, TIME Magazine and a dying internet service provider we used to call AOL...

The court through out the second complaint because it was too long??? No wonder the third complaint was about RIAA's abuse of the legal system.
I am hoping Andersen starts to see some progress with this case; however, it is clear that the RIAA already has this judge's pockets lined.

Their tactics need to be investigated.

Ugh. It's not going to be accepted. If the RIAA can afford to have this many simultaneous lawsuits going, they can certainly afford a judge.
I hope it does though.
