I snooping around digg.com when one article led to another. Something about the RIAA, but I'm sure a lot of this stuff applies to our situation at hand. The thing that made me post a topic was this quote.
QUOTE
Following Verizon's win over the RIAA concerning subpoenas for those sharing music, the RIAA's latest tactic has been to send letters to various ISPs, asking them to send nastygrams to any users the RIAA identifies. The thinking is that, with all the lawsuits already in the news, these nastygrams will have the same impact as the lawsuits and get people to stop sharing music. The only problem is that the ISPs no longer seem afraid of the RIAA and aren't necessarily willing to roll over and take orders from the RIAA any more.

Rob, you should do some more research on this, and maybe call the legal offices of your ISP and talk to them. I don't think you have much to worry about unless the NMPA or the MPA directly threatens you. Now I know you're just playing it safe, and that's fine, however, other sites don't seem to be worrying about it all that much (example Ultimateguitar)
here is another link about the ISP's and RIAA articles that I've read. I know these articles are about music sharing, but this is so closely related, maybe some of this can help you in some way.
