In an unusual case in which an Arizona recipient of an RIAA letter has fought back in court rather than write a check to avoid hefty legal fees, the industry is taking its argument against music sharing one step further: In legal documents in its federal case against Jeffrey Howell, a Scottsdale, Ariz., man who kept a collection of about 2,000 music recordings on his personal computer, the industry maintains that it is illegal for someone who has legally purchased a CD to transfer that music into his computer.
The insanity with which the RIAA conducts business is now WAY over the top.

F**K.
I can see making people pay for the music that they used, but almost $10,000 a song?
What is this? The SImpsons lawyers (the cartoon, not OJ).
