If the RIAA actually owned any music rights, I'd comment.  As it is, they are simply a paid collection agency with slightly more leverage than Citibank or AmEx, but with slightly more leverage.

Well, yeah.. Citibank generally only threatens to sue you, the RIAA does it.

They don't only sue you, they sue your family, your friends, your pets, your houseplants. They drop lawyers like neutron bombs...nothing is left alive.
