My guess is none of them were lawyers ;)

I doubt that they were willing to reduce overhead with inflated salaries at the executive level, so they cut the low peasant jobs so the execs can keep their European vacation homes.

It was the staff members that collect "facts" for trial and PR.

The RIAA relized they to not need no "stinking facts"
