From the Law Offices of Mitchell L. Sliverman: A letter to the RIAA

I wish to notify your office of a copyright violation of materials protected by your organization that I learned about today.

As you will see from the attached article from today's The Miami Herald, President George W. Bush's daughters made him a presumably illegal compilation CD, a so-called "mix CD," as a Father's Day present. As the article states, "[President] Bush's twin daughters, gave him [as a Father's Day present] a CD they had made for him to listen to while exercising."

This is a serious violation of copyright. As you know, whichever of your member organizations that are right-holders for the copied musical works may be entitled to statutory damages of $150,000.00 per musical work copied.

I hope and expect that you at the RIAA will display the same vigor in prosecuting this matter and protecting the rights of your rights-holders that it has displayed in enforcing those rights against other alleged violators.
