My editor got hold of an internal memo that reveal the Recording Industry 
Association of America's strategy and findings in its soon to be waged war 
against FastTrack's KaZaA, MusicCity's Morpheus and Grokster. The memos 
reveal the association's litigation strategy, how FastTrack may work with 
RIAA and how the situation differs from the Napster debacle. 

The RIAA response was quite funny when he asked them for a quote:

'We are not confirming whether these are real emails. But if anyone thinks 
that the music community is sitting idly by while these services threaten our 
industry and our technology partners they are wrong.'

I found it odd that they seem willing to use such an approach. I suppose that 
they are just desperate. We need to all get the word out on this, there are 
potentially huge implications. The next few months could prove telling.
