The RIAA/MPAA hit list

Just saw the RIAA’s top 25 list of universities that have received the most copyright infringement notices, and the MPAA’s version of the same list. An interesting follow-up to the stern warning from Berkeley the student body received a week back.

My alma mater doesn’t make the list, though the University of Tennessee at Knoxville (where I spent much of my middle/high school years) is way up there. Go Vols?

Berkeley isn’t even on the RIAA’s target list, though it does straggle in at #25 on the MPAA list (Stanford barely edges out UCB with 7 more notices). It is not indicative of “which institutions are the worst infringers”, though. Just the ones that have been caught the most, I suppose.

    Kind of OT, but I can’t decide whether these trackbacks are spam or not. They’re clearly not coming from posts made by humans, but do these bot-run aggregation sites actually serve a purpose? I don’t even see any advertising on them…
