RIAA Messing With Your Computer?
There’s been a stir in the blogoshpere recently about the RIAA (that’s the Recording Industry Association of America, for those without Wikipedia) supposedly pressuring large computer manufacturers into disabling and limiting the stereo inputs of sound cards, in a superficial attempt to stop any kind of decent analog-to-digital piracy. Dells with SigmaTel chips have reportedly been hit particularly hard.
While the reports are unverified, would it really surprise anyone that much if it were true? It certainly wouldn’t be the first shady tactic this association has used.
