RedNova has an interesting story with interviews with two people targetted by RIAA subpoenas. One is a grandfather who was found sharing seceral hundred songs. He was tired of the current crop of American clone bands so much of his collection was made up of hard to get European music. Another is a father. He acknowledged his daughter had installed the software but he was unaware that it was illegal.

Outsiders are urging the RIAA to carefully select their targets as suing minors or grandparents will create a backlash against the industry.

Carry Sherman of the RIAA isn't taking that advice. He says 'The idea really is not to be selective, to let people know that if they're offering a substantial number of files for others to copy, they are at risk. It doesn't matter who they are.'
