The Recording Industry Association of America filed suit against an 83 year old woman who died in December. Despite being given a copy of her death certificate one week earlier.

Perhaps they would make more of an example if they targeted the living instead.

I dunno what this will achieve for them...

Maybe their sources show the dead person is still sending songs from the grave oO

I am imagining a scene from "the sixth sense" where the kid says "I sue dead people"

Time to time does not describe what RIAA displays. Sooner (preferably now) or later they will dig their own graves and sue themselves when they realize their own foolishness in these issues.

The RIAA didn't much like that article.

I wonder if God will get sued as well?

After all it's his Heaven ISP that is allowing this filesharing from beyond the dead.

 

[Yeloazndevil]

the RIAA needs to die a horrible death.

Seems like things are getting way out hand. RIAA should really pay attention to who they really sue. But seriously how do they really know they are sueing little girl since the IP is the parents computer. But as for sueing dead person they really screwd up.
I don't know how court systems can take RIAA seriously these days.

Well, maybe RIAA is planning to make new kind of policy, they sue dead people when they can't say if they're quilty or not. Then they just use one of those laws that nobody knows and get money from the dead ones families, how evil...

But seriously, they could really start thinking a little...

Why hasn't anyone broken the RIAA's monopoly yet?

 

[scottlc]

Maybe they'll try to sue the unborn next?
