Default Music companies take crackdown to campuses

Here we go again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's intimidate them into buying our product for a grossly exaggerated price for fun and profit.
What do you think?
I mean since the day of the tape deck college kids have shared music. Now that the same old rules of profit don't work , the riaa tries to bully for profits. And then they wonder why it does NOT work!! go figure!!!


WASHINGTON (AP) -- College students who faced lawsuits for illegally sharing large music collections over campus computer networks increasingly risk being unplugged from the Internet or even suspended over lesser complaints by the recording industry.

In a nationwide crackdown, the music industry is sending thousands more copyright complaints to universities this school year than last. In some cases, students are targeted for allegedly sharing a single mp3 file online.
