There is a story that everyone should read on CNET News.com about the RIAA(Record Industry Association of America) getting a bill through the House of Representatives. It is the House Education and Labor Committee's College Opportunity and Affordability Act in which an small section says that universities that participate in federal financial aid programs would be required to provide alternative offerings to unlawful downloading, such as subscription-based service, or technology-based deterrents to prevent such illegal activity. According to the article if the failure to comply by the university would result in some loss of federal funds. Which may result in lose of grants to students. This shows me the power and evil of the record industry and its lobby. Please read the story at CNET News.com or BizOrigin.com.
