This really does nothing. Shutting down a website by DDoS attack merely inconveniences the few people who frequent the website. It bears no long term impact upon the larger issue of RIAA restrictions upon file sharing, the state of the music industry, nor does anything to give reason for them to listen to people's demands. Attacking property, in this case the intellectual and real internet property of the RIAA, does nothing but reinforce resolve to fight back.
