Pac Bell sues RIAA

Ahhh -- the RIAA gets another taste of their own medicine! Pac Bell sues the RIAA over the massive number of subpoenas that they have to deal with:

The suit also called to question some sections of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, the federal law the RIAA contends supports its latest legal actions. A spokesman for SBC said the RIAA's use of the DMCA in its legal quest for online song-sharers butts up against the privacy rights of SBC's customers.

<dream>What if the court declared the DMCA unconstitutional?</dream>

Regardless, this should be an interesting turn of events.
