Moby hates the RIAA's response to P2P

One of Moby's fans is being sued by the RIAA, and it's got Moby steamed:

personally i just can't see any good in coming from punishing people for being music fans and making the effort to hear new music.
i'm almost tempted to go onto kazaa and download some of my own music, just to see if the riaa would sue me for having mp3's of my own songs on my hard-drive.
