RIAA site intermittently available, now running Linux

Mar 24, 2004 4:22PM PST

The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA)'s site is now transiently available after an extended outage and now appears to be running Linux.

Inevitably, this will lead to speculation that SCO might add the RIAA to the list of Linux using organizations currently receiving attention from its lawyers.

Of course, the RIAA is itself well endowed with lawyers should it need to defend itself, and just yesterday announced the latest in its own series of lawsuits against Internet users it believes are improperly sharing copyrighted music files.
