I don't think they want a test case to go to court that is strictly for 2257 record keeping violations, as there are way too many constitutional issues.

Why go after a big fish when you can establish precedent against a little fish with far less resources to put up a fight?

The odds may be greatly against it for a secondary producer but there are thousands upon thousands of people who thought that for a whole range of other legal issues right up until the moment they got that knock on the door.

Big fish, little fish, it makes no difference. My point was that they do not want to take the chance on establishing a precedent.
