RIAA vs College Students (http://www.boingboing.net/2007/03/01/npr_xeni_tech_riaa_v.html)
For today's edition of the NPR News program "Day to Day," I filed a report on a new anti-piracy offensive from the Recording Industry Association of America that targets college students.
The RIAA recently sent out 400 "pre-litigation settlement letters" to students accused of illegal downloading at 13 universities, and launched p2plawsuits.com, where the accused are invited to avoid lawsuits by turning themselves in and paying fines online.
