Sticking it to the RIAA

I can think of no better evidence of the RIAA's failure to persuade than this campaign. I can't really endorse this action, which falls somewhere between civil disobedience and vandalism. That said, it is indicative of the degree of antipathy which the RIAA's efforts to date have stirred up. These folks spent days designing stickers, "borrowing" a digital camera, and affixing 2,000 anti-RIAA stickers to major-label CDs. While one might argue that these folks have waaaaaay too much time on their hands, the motivational force of their anger should also be acknowledged.
