The RIAA’s “Notorious Markets List” includes stream-ripping sites, rogue MP3 marketplaces & counterfeit CD manufacturers
The issue of piracy inside otherwise legitimate mobile apps, such as Telegram, is also raised in this year’s letter.
The RIAA says it is currently monitoring more than 200 active stream-ripping websites, which allow users to create and download mp3 files from song streams on YouTube or SoundCloud. Earlier this year, it successfully helped force one major offender, DBR.ee, offline. The organization also wants the “Notorious” list to pay special attention to unlicensed pay-for-download sites, cyberlockers, BitTorrent sites and MP3 search engines.
It adds, "Telegram claims that it forwards our notices to the channel operators who are responsible for removing the infringements listed in our notices. We have found, however, that most channel operators appear to take no action in response to our notices, with nearly all of infringements listed in our notices remaining available.
