I don't know what the endgame is for Anon but it's fun to see them wreck havoc against UMG and RIAA. Not sure I totally agree with the DOJ attack but I don't exactly feel sorry for them either.

Still can anyone explain what type of effect a DDOS attack really has on sites like UMG and RIAA? It's not like they rely on those sites for sales. Does it cause them to loose money?
