If it is the case that these rootkits have been going to radio
stations, the press, etc since 2002 ... there could be some trouble (I
help out at a small independent radio station) cause im sure a lot of
the big American radio stations have a few pennies ... to sue with....

Most of the big stations use the music digitally in the first place (under license .. and usually under 'pay for play' agreements).

These days, anyone that puts *any* CD in their computer and lets it autorun is really asking for it. I hope Microsoft disables autoplay with an update in the future -- that would stop this silliness dead in its tracks.
