hmm... yes, once hacked, they'll have a fun time locking the server down
properly, there might well be weaknesses still left there...

i thought it wouldnt take long... after The Register (US) was
publicising it.... ;-)

well if anyone wants to see a copy... well, i downloaded it while it was
fresh... i've put it up now on http://www.copyleftmedia.org/riaa.htm -
Declan McCullagh put a list of mirrors up on Politechbot too, i
believe...

LOL... whooops! ;-)

well, imho Bestor is lucky to get $1.50 - not many artists even get
that.
and what he doesn't mention is that that money has to be offset against
