THE MARCH OF IDIOTS v EDUCATORS: The RIAA is about to make a bid to divert much-needed funds from teaching to pleasing the RIAA by launching an attack on an independent university in the US. The Pacific Lutheran University has received a threatening letter from the music business cartell warning that it's about to have a subpoena winging its way to help the RIAA find out names of students who might have put a Hank Wangford song or something onto a hard drive.

We're sure this isn't merely an attempt to bounce PLU into signing up with one of the shiny, record-company approved official services - services, of course, where the labels are raking off up to twice as much as when they offer those old CD thingys for sale.
