| You
don't Need a PC to Get Sued By the RIAA |
webpronews.com reports: The Inquirer's Nick
Farrell suggests that it was apparent telepathy that allowed Brooklyn resident
Marie Lindon to download songs off the Internet without a computer. Others
think the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) is picking names
out of a phonebook, sharing the random wrath of Navin Johnson's would-be
assassin as well as "The Jerk's" titular characteristics.
Farrell called it a "sue everyone policy"
after Lindon's attorneys responded to the RIAA's lawsuit claiming Lindon
not only was innocent of the download and distribution charges, but also
never owned or ever turned on a computer. [see full story for more RIAA

| Disturbed
Vs Fans |
KNAC reports: Controversy continues to swirl
over seemingly contradictory comments Disturbed lead singer David Draiman
has made about the band playing Ozzfest 2006. Apparently, visitors have
been peppering the message board at the bands' official website with non-stop
criticism over Draimans' comments...some demanding an apology. Draiman
left this message on the bands message board, shortly before it was turned
off completely:
"When an apology is warranted, I am the
first to offer one. But not in this case. I do not appreciate the idiocy
of people criticizing what I am supposed to have said. I am not going to
defend myself any more than I already have, as there should be no need
to. I have half a mind to do away with this board completely...[see full
