CRIA still plans lawsuits

As I mentioned in my last post in regards the clarification, the allowance is for downloading, not uploading, and thus the pronouncements all week that the CRIA, the Canadian arm of the RIAA, have not surprised me. What does surprise me is the coverage this is getting by media sources who themselves clarified that the clarification is that downloading only is legal. The National Post and the Globe and Mail both had stories that covered the announcement, but yet the Globe has had at least 3 pieces since then that say that the CRIA is planning to go after those who upload music. As I said before, this is not a hard thing for them to enforce at all, the RIAA has all but patented the methods tried and true, but the CRIA would have had no hope with downloaders in the end. The National Post, as only they can, have the story totally wrong.
