If the RIAA can sue ISP's for the content people download , then I guess that Tower Records can sue most independant record labels for selling the same CD at half the price over the internet. I havent realy bought many CD's from a store in about 2 years. The reason is that I can go here -> http://www.copint.com/ , here-> http://www.malignantrecords.com/ or here-> http://www.industrial-music.com/ and get the music I want for a fraction of the price and I get the added benifits of not dealing with some vapid chain store worker and not being bombarded with the weak mindless shit that most record companies put out these days.Price gougeing for an inferior product is what is killing record sales, not file shareing. To blame it all on file shareing is to assume that everyone in the target market has a computer and is downloading music with it. I think if you compare the number of people with computers to the number of people without computers you will see what I mean.
