I'm pretty sure the reason the RIAA can't sue Sharman is they aren't doing anything illegal. They simply provide a network for users to connect to. If the users decide to share illegal files, then that's their problem, not Kazaa's.
What Kazaa is hoping for is a bandwagon approach, where all the other files-sharing programs authors file similar suit, tying up the RIAA for a lengthy period of time. Kazaa has every right to go after the RIAA for using an unlicensed version of their software for commercial use.
Also, the RIAA saying that someone ELSE is using copyright law to be "self-serving" is utterly hilarious.
