RIAA sues yet another 493 P2P users

Recording Industry Association of America continues its holy war against the P2P users and has sued yet another 493 P2P network users in the United States.

Latest lawsuit pile puts the total figure of sued individuals close to 3,000 since September, 2003. RIAA has been forced to sue the individual as "John Does" since it lost its court case and couldn't threaten ISPs to hand out personal details of their users without sueing them first.



Organization also said that it has filed 24 lawsuits where it knows the personality of the file-sharer and said that all of those personally named have denied to settle their cases out of court.
