Hollywood has a lot of money to buy lawyers with. But Mark Cuban is helping the techies out financially. The question is, do a bunch of 60+ year olds (who are expert at law) know enough about technology to reach the proper conclusion? Regardless of how the case goes, I have not bought an RIAA product in over two years. I would encourage anyone else who has a concern about fair use to do the same.

Just read something that Fred Von Lohmann of the EFF and Ted Olson of the RIAA were on C-SPAN's Washington Journal this morning. Von Lohmass says he believes the Court is qualified to work on technology issues. Makes me feel a little better. But I won't be surprised either way on how this case turns out.

I just hope the RIAA loses, being the corporate thugs they are. I don't really listen to stuff on RIAA labels anyway, so it doesn't really affect me.

I agree with you. And that may be a first.
