All,

  Well again it seems that the RIAA, ICANN's and the IPC's
favorite son has het again willing to submit a canard of a patition
in hopes of saving it's already very weak case.  If it wasn't so
pittyful and silly it would be halarious.

See:

writes "You may recall that in an RIAA case,
http://recordingindustryvspeople.blogspot.com/2007/01/index-of-litigation-documents.html#SONY_v_Tenenbaum
SONY BMG Music v. Tenenbaum, the district court ruled that an oral
argument about the constitutionality of statutory damages

be streamed, and the RIAA has been fighting that with a
http://news.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/01/23/224214&tid=123 petition
for ' http://news.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/01/17/1713227&tid=123
mandamus or prohibition' in the appeals court, which is

opposed by the press.  Interestingly, it now turns out that the appeals
court's oral argument about the streaming

will itself be recorded and then streamed. It is hard to imagine how a
court which routinely streams its own oral arguments can rule that it is
somehow inappropriate for similar oral arguments in the district court
to be streamed as well."
