The RIAA, my all-time favourite industry body (yeah, right

And, according to the Inquirer, that “other” tech tabloid, it will take 2191.78 years to sue them all at their current rate, effectively meaning that the process won’t be finished until some time the year 4195.
And that’s only the US users. [Link via Bits & Bytes]
