You can already do this on many, many upload sites, but they get taken down all the time. Amazon is just making it more legal.
The RIAA will go after Amazon accounts soon enough. Amazon won't cover for them either, especially when it means they're losing out on their share of revenue too. Music isn't free. The artists might be fake and all, but someone got paid $5,000 to lay their record down and the label would LOVE to get that financial splurge back.

I don't know if I agree. There is no way to share your music through Amazon's cloud player.
Amazon would not give up the accounts either easily they're not just gonna hand it over to them without just cause. A lot of people rip their own CDs to add their music to their mp3 players. There really is no way to track those and know what's legit and what isn't. I think Amazon can only tell what is their own mp3s and what is user made.
