I see the RIAA still hasn't accepted that they lost this battle over a decade ago. No one gives a shit about them, artists hate them, they're effectively the same as patent trolls now. Using a broken copyright system and lack of technology awareness to try and justify their continuing existence in a society that no longer needs them.
