Join us on Wednesday July 19, at 3pm EDT (noon PDT) for a conference call with attorney Ray Beckerman. Ray is the attorney leading the legal fight against the RIAA in the USA. Learn how stopping these law suits will help stop the imposition of DRM. 

At this moment there are law suits in progress that could have far reaching consequences for the Internet, copyright law, and the attempt by Big Media to push DRM down our throats. Ray has news that will help us connect the dots between DRM and the RIAA law suits, and show us what action we can take. 

In our fight against DRM we face a cartel of large media corporations colluding with each other illegally. All the Big Media companies act as one in their insistence that digital restrictions on technology must be put in place. And they all act as one in their support for the RIAA-fronted law suits. This type of collusion is unprecedented and joint legal action of this nature is almost unheard of. 

Competitors usually seek out a competitive advantage over one another. In the entertainment industry you would expect to see companies releasing their product in formats that are better for their customers. Instead, these "competitors" have a delicate agreement in place to force us to accept their defective products -- defective because they are crippled with DRM. We can help break this agreement by applying appropriate pressure on the RIAA law suits. Join us and learn how stopping the RIAA law suits can stop DRM.
