ROFL!
Soon, they'll sue people who can hear the music from their neighbours

[karajorma]

We laugh now and cry later when RIAA decide to actually do it

[Nico]

Well, they could take inspiration from that article

[Fineus]

In addition, RIAA lawyers said they were hoping to get a court order to exhume the bodies of Scottish physicist James Clerk-Maxwell, who developed the theory of electromagnetic waves and Guglielmo Marconi, who discovered and harnessed wireless radio in order to sue both corpses for unfair business practices.

Classic

[Stealth]

yeah i'll bet some people actually fell for it though

[Hippo]

Well, the artist decided to put the song on the radio, so its their fault...

[diamondgeezer]

Reading Stealth's post and then reading Hippo's post made me **** my pants laughing

[WMCoolmon]

I was fooled up until I read the "exhuming the bodies"...I thought that was a little too far, even for the RIAA.

Fortunately, I read that part in time to remove it from my research proposal...

[phreak]

or perhaps the little line at the bottom that says

THIS ARTICLE IS SATIRE

[WMCoolmon]

Yeah, managed to miss that. The one in the title, too.
