The RIAA files another 532 lawsuits.  Because the RIAA can no longer
used the "expedited subpoena" power of the DMCA to uncover the
identity of IP addresses it believes are being used to share files,
the RIAA has filed these as "John Doe" lawsuits naming IP addresses,
presumably with dates and times attached.

A Michigan Daily story says that nine U. Michigan students have had their
identities subpoenaed by the RIAA.  This makes little sense to me, as the
DMCA subpoena process against file sharing users was thrown out last
December, and it's too early for the new John Doe lawsuits to have 
been processed down to the University.  ???
