Recording Industry Association of America told to press that it has sued yet another 41 P2P users over alleged copyright infringements.
RIAA started its latest manhunt against P2P network users in September and since sued almost 400 American P2P users.
"This is an ongoing strategy, and the way to let people know that there is a risk of consequences is to continue the program," RIAA President Cary Sherman said. "You don't set up a speed trap for one day and stop enforcement thereafter. It has to be consistent."
RIAA also stated that it has reached out-of-court settlements with 220 accused P2P users. This figure includes people who have settled with RIAA, whether they've have been sued or just threatened with RIAA's DMCA letters.
