Music gets stolen on college campuses. College students are also poor. And Americans will stop at nothing to pay nothing. Music can easily be obtained through theft. Music pirating happens. Whatever your stance is on pirating music, one thing is unquestionably up: the RIAA is up to no good.

The RIAA banks on citizens freaking out and agreeing to pay a few thousand dollars, without the due process of the court.

Until now. The Oregon attorney general is now pursuing the RIAA:
