The RIAA is waking up. Waking up to the fact that they are now completely obsolete because you no longer have to buy CD's from them at prices they determine. The internet provides a direct link from the artist to the listener. No recording contracts, no million dollar music videos, no managment "skimming off the top".
Their actions are a desperate, useless attempt to stem the oncoming tide of creativity. As CD sales drop, the RIAA will have less money and less options to fight the revolution. Music artists will be judged on the quality of their music not on how well they can suck up to the RIAA.
I personally can't wait until a time when I pay for a song and over 80% goes directly to the artist.
