No idea if it would work either, and I'm not about to go on a crusade, but maybe it would work. I bet getting the info from ISP's would be difficult, but how does the RIAA do it?

Also maybe finding them online because people are stupid would be easier. Most likely they'll use the same login and password at many sites, so you could have a spider that searches for their name at popular sites, and maybe more information can be retrieved that way. Unless people are really trying to cover their tracks, there are probably ways to find some of them.

I don't think you have to tell them how you found them! If this had sponsor support, I bet a lot of the information is given to sponsors already, they could cross reference their databases of customers. Perhaps some of the people buy accounts to pirate the stuff.
