it will tkae them forever to sue everyone and besides

They don't have to sue everyone...I have no doubt that they're able to shut down a few P2P networks. They can only "find" you if you're sharing music, so the simple solution for most people is to stop sharing. Yeah, well, that'll save your own skin just fine, but the RIAA is still winning because they'll have succeeded in shutting down the P2P networks when everyone stops sharing.

The issue is deeper than that, though. If they do close down P2P networks, next they'll be after burned CDs. Someone can buy a CD, burn it, give it to all their friends and then resell it. Same as a P2P network, just physically and not digitally. That'll be a much, much tougher fight, though...
