Their lawyers had to have told them the only chance they ever had would be if the site ran out of funds to continue the litigation, but the RIAA continued on for years to the inevitable bitch slapping they got from the judge when it was over.

So far the publishing industry hasn't matched that.
I was more refering to the deluded belief in DRM as a solution to a problem that isn't even a problem, but a paranoid invention.
