RIAA versus The People.
There is an entire blog devoted to the stupid things the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) does to its customers in the name of fostering "a business and legal climate that supports and promotes our members' creative and financial vitality".
You could be forgiven for thinking that the RIAA acts on behalf of artists and composers, but they don't. Their members are record companies, who themselves rarely have the best interests of an artist at heart. I can't imagine that any artist believes that threatening customers with legal action is a way to increase business.
There's even a website promoting a boycott of the RIAA.

Update: It seems that The Head Lemur is on the same wavelength as I am here.
