RIAA CEO Mitch Bainwol celebrates the success of the RIAA lawuits against file sharing operators and their users in a USA Today piece. Because, you know, file sharing is "contained".
"Digital downloads have emerged into a growing, thriving business, and file-trading is flat."
Now even if that was true - it doesn't exactly smell like success. More than 20.000 lawsuits against file traders, major P2P players knocked out of the game, and all you end up with is less growth?
