'We look forward to collaborative work with a broad spectrum of Internet2's members to develop new technologies that will enable us to produce and distribute digital content over next generation networks in ways that protect and enhance the value of creative works,' Cary Sherman, president of the RIAA said.
Translation:
'We look forward to ripping off the consumers and then padding our bottom line by suing the people who might like to buy the music, but to whom we won't sell it. We know that the press has forgotton that we were found to have colluded and price-fixed and ripped everybody off throughout the '90s, and nobody seems to point out that when you go to the record store to buy a song, it's pretty much NEVER AVAILABLE. Oh yeah, we'll also peddle shitty compressed files on the Web wherever we can as a little side business to our real business, which is sitting on our fat asses and complaining to Congress in order to get hand-outs.'
