[quote]The RIAA is suing XM Satellite radio contending that the ability to store songs in memory makes it similar to an iPod, but with no income involved for the RIAA." From the article: "XM said it will vigorously defend this lawsuit on behalf of consumers and also called the lawsuit a bargaining tactic. [...] The labels are currently in talks with XM and its rival Sirius Satellite Radio, to renegotiate digital royalty contracts for broadcasts.[/quote]

Watta buncha shit. I hope they get head cancer, but don't die... immediately[}:)]

The RIAA continues to show why they are the King of the Asshats.

Wow, I wonder if they will sue regular FM stations and MP3 player manufacturers also, since a lot of the players can record the FM broadcast.

Actualy I think that the RIAA will probably have people walk around playing music and then charge money to everyone within earshot and sue anyone who doesn't pay.
