Breaking Records (Over Students' Heads)

To some college students, the Recording Industry Association of America is about as fun as a hunting trip with Dick Cheney. Students at colleges and universities across the country have received intimidating letters from the RIAA accusing them of illegally downloading copyrighted music. They have been warned that they could soon be defending themselves in court unless they go to a web site run by the RIAA, confess to their sins, and subject themselves to the civil equivalent of being sent to bed without supper.

After listening to a relevant National Public Radio story, I expected MC101s to be breathing fire over this. But that's not what happened.
