The WP article never states he is being sued for ripping cds, although it is easy to infer. It says that the RIAA brought up ripping cds in their lawsuite, but not that it was *the* reason for the lawsuit. The article itself is poorly written and researched. The interesting part of the story is that the RIAA may actually decide to start going after cd rippers, I don't think even in this current climate they can win that lawsuit.
