I was thinking a bit more about this last night. So the RIAA is going after downloaders, too.

So if someone gets "busted", what's to stop them from simply going out and buying a copy of the CD (or single) they downloaded? Doesn't fair use cover the right to obtain a backup copy to works you paid for?
