" WASHINGTON -- The recording industry intends to sue hundreds of college students accused of illegally distributing music and movies across Internet2, the super-fast computer network connecting leading universities for researching the next generation of the Internet, industry officials said Tuesday."

This will probably get spammed like all threads on here do, but My question to you guys is. Do you think if the Recording Industry keeps doing this to Universities and such. Do you think we will be seeing people boycott of buying cds, and things, and the people who are boycotting will just listen to the radio? I think we will see that if the recording industry keeps doing this. What do you guys think?
I just wonder whats next for them...

Considering the radio is just as corrupt as anything else, it's tough to turn to that for music.
Something needs to happen, seriously. This is getting ridiculous.

We won't see this, because too many of us already boycott radio.
However, if I see them going after websites or individuals who share live recordings rather than commercially available stuff, I can tell you that I am not going to ever buy another new CD.

And this one goes out to my man taking cover in the trenches with a gun in his hand
Then gets home and no one flinches when he can't feed his fam...

They still have him. 
I wish they had just gone down gracefully and not gone commercial. My Napster shirt is incredibly uncool now thanks to it.

You have to give Napster credit for starting it all. They revolutionized the internet and the music industry.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.
