fyreseer's, we did a quick road trip to Jefferson City for the Missouri River Regional Library Renaissance Festival last weekend. A nice little 6-hour faire in a great site, with room to grow, for sure. We caught the Jolly Rogers' show and enjoyed spectating a bit of the highland games that ![[info]](https://stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}

As you will see from the attached article from today's The Miami Herald, President George W. Bush's daughters made him a presumably illegal compilation CD, a so-called "mix CD," as a Father's Day present. As the article, at http://www.miamiherald.com/692/story/142726.html states, "[President] Bush's twin daughters, gave him [as a Father’s Day present] a CD they had made for him to listen to while exercising."
This is a serious violation of copyright. As you know, whichever of your member organizations that are right-holders for the copied musical works may be entitled to statutory damages of $150,000.00 per musical work copied.
I hope and expect that you at the RIAA will display the same vigor in prosecuting this matter and protecting the rights of your rights-holders that it has displayed in enforcing those rights against other alleged violators.
