What about GNULinux distros? Not every file on people's PCs belongs to the RIAA

TorrentSpy ordered to pay the MPAA $110 million

| For Dan Glickman, Chairman and CEO of the MPAA, “The demise of Torrentspy is 
| a clear victory for the studios and demonstrates that such pirate sites will  
| not be allowed to continue to operate without facing relentless litigation by 
| copyright holders.”
