GAO p2p ‘file sharing’ controversy

The RIAA, owned by France’s Vivendi Universal, Britain’s EMI, and Sony BMG from Japan and Germany, with the only American company, Warner Music, bringing up the rear, quite literally accuses school kids of all ages of being criminals and thieves.

Every time one of them shares or downloads a digital music file, somehow, a sale is lost, claim the Big Four, without a shred of evidence.

And among the worst of these hundreds of millions of file sharing criminals are American college and university students, says the RIAA through chief spikesmen Mitch Bainwol and Cary Sherman.

The RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America), with the MPAA offering full frontal support, created a self-serving organization called the Joint Committee of the Higher Education and Entertainment Communities (JCHEEC).
