Thanks. The one thing I would like to say to all of you is that the RIAA's lawyers probably had idealism once, but lost it along the way. I'll bet there was a time, when they were in law school, when they dreamed of being a force for good. How did they lose that? How did Charles Nesson keep his? I don't have answers to these questions, but I hope you all keep these questions in mind as you go along, and my wish for all of you is that as lawyers you will be a force for good, and make the world a little better place than it was. Good article, Jason. Thanks.
