Maybe I'm missing something, but I thought that the "making available" charge was completely made up. Wouldn't just enforcing the law as it is be enough to curb the RIAA abuses? If you're litigating on a strategy that is bunk, and has been ruled to be so by judges, and doing it repeatedly, isn't that a Rule 11 violation? Also, on a case by case basis, all you need are a few complaints against printers (if the judge who receives the complaint sanctions the attorney on that particular case) and the quality of the representation of the RIAA will go way down. No one wants to be fined, censured and made unpopular amongst the printing and copying machinery community.
