Suing for songs you can't show; The RIAA's risky strategy

We've touched on this before, and now (our hero) Ray Beckerman is going for the jugular and pointing out to the judge in UMG vs. Lindor that 27 songs the RIAA says Ms. Lindor downloaded, they can't produce.

Now, far be it from me to call the RIAA anything but a churchgoing, stand up organization full of honest people who never, ever tell even the whitest and most minor of lies but, in what other situation could you get away with this?

Here's an experiment for a recording industry exec. For your anniversary, take your wife to the nicest restaurant in town. Order wine, be charming, and generally remind her why she married you. Then, when it's time for the main course and presents, give her a picture of a lobster, and another of a fur coat. If you still retain the use of all your limbs afterwords, then suing for piracy with a screen-shot may indeed be a winning strategy.

Perfect digital copies, really, we swear.
