consumerist.com — Justin McElroy at the Herald-Dispatch sends us a link to a PDF of the letter RIAA lawyers sent to college students, accusing them of infringing copyright and offering to settle if they identify themselves and confess.

Share your connection w/ wifi and they can't prove who was using the connection.Better yet, use someone else’s wifi connection to download. ;)

If only there was a counter-group on the consumers' side that fought tooth and nail like the RIAA does. It'd be like two bulls butting heads. Brilliant I say!

Just format your HDD before the feds get their hands on it.... format it more than 7 times, and no data recovery software can retrieve the info.

Plus if you go to court, you have to pay legal fees. That's the real reason most people settle, it's just too costly to fight them in court.

Oh where to start? Your f**king pussy ISP giving up your IP like a drunk freshman slut. Or the RIAA extortion. But on the bright side, this is perhaps showing the RIAA's bluff. They certainly have enough money to make there cases, but I think they might be thinking that they dont have the facts to win the cases. On the other hand maybe the RIAA is starting to see that people are standing up to them and that those people are getting public support. The RIAA looks like a bully and the hatred grows more for them. In all I say let the RIAA sue you, they are the ones who look like assh**es.
