NEWS: RIAA steps up lawsuits against students
Business Week reports that the RIAA claims to be sending out around 400 letters to students at thirteen different universities in the next month. These letters offer the opportunity for students who have broken copyright laws to settle at a "discounted" rate. The trade group plans to continue this action every month increasing the number of letters until universities comply in stopping illegal file sharing within their own networks. The RIAA has sued three times as many students this year as they did last year.
