Omigod, this is the funniest hack I've ever seen against these guys. :D (http://www.newsfactor.com/perl/story/19227.html)



After drawing the ire of the online file-swapping community and Internet users at large, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) Web site was defaced and taken offline Wednesday.

Hooray! They deserve it if they are going to prevent me from ripping my own CDs. Screw em, if I can't rip my own CDs to use in iTunes I'll just get MP3s off Carracho.

Here's another link (http://news.com.com/2100-1023-947072.html) on it.

The apparently deliberate overload rendered the RIAA.org site unavailable for portions of four days and came after the group endorsed legislation to allow copyright holders to disrupt peer-to-peer networks.

Coincidence? I think not.:)

They're fighting a losing battle. Eventually all music will be free. I praise the hackers and I want to read the Eric Cartmen article!

Hitman, your attached picture is hilarious
