After 5 years of suing thousands of people for illegally sharing and downloading music from the internet, the RIAA has finally backed down. The RIAA will instead work with the ISP’s, to contact and identify users who continue to trade copyrighted music. The RIAA grew a change of heart and dropped all new lawsuits after working with Andrew Cuomo, New York’s attorney general.
Rollingstone reports:
While this is great news, I still don’t trust these assholes. Once the economy improves, they’ll be on a suing frenzy again. They should have thought about the ISP thing 5 years ago.

While the industry is within its right to protect its assets, these lawsuits are a couple steps too far and it’s good to hear that they’re backing off. Who knows, maybe piracy from the people who post torrents and archives online just for the sake of piracy might diminish. Anything’s possible.
There’s no way to wipe it out completely, but the labels need to look at the stuff that gets leaked or spread via promos. I’d think that would be something more important to try to curb than the stuff that comes after an album is released to the public.
