The RIAA vs. John Doe, a layperson's guide to filesharing lawsuits

The RIAA vs. John Doe, a layperson's guide to filesharing lawsuitsRay
Beckerman of Recording Industry vs. The People put together an article that
explains how the RIAA's militant enforcement arm legal team find, obtain
records on and sue ISP account holders who may or may not have ever been
users of P2P applications. It's a great reference, but (no offense intended
to Ray) it's dry like a bread-sandwitch.

I decided to take a stab at rewriting it in something closer to English than
lawyer. In hopes that it would be more accessible.

So, with thanks to Ray Beckerman, let's take a look at The RIAA vs. John
Doe, in what I hope serves as a layperson's guide to filesharing lawsuits.
