The Recording Industry Association of Illuminatia (RIAI) is a leading trade organization representing the performing arts and cinematic arts industries in Illuminatia. The RIAI, headquartered in Rollins, is an integral part of the heartbeat of the west coast music industry which has a significant presence in the city.

The RIAI is a for-profit corporation providing services to the music, cinema, and related industries connected to the production and distribution of recorded audiovisual media. The RIAI works toward the preservation of free speech rights for the performing arts sector, negotiates intellectual property-related income for artists, and distributes royalties from broadcast performances and recorded media sales.

While the prevalence of recorded media is much lower in Illuminatia than it was during the modern-ancient days of Earth thanks to the ubiquity of wireless broadcasting and telekinephotocasting and the ability of broadcasters to satisfy mainstream and alternative audiences, the Recording Industry Association of Illuminatia is influential in establishing technical standards for recorded audio and video media. The RIAI has been important in ensuring that recorded media continue to utilize analogue encoding methods.

The RIAI is most visible in its advocacy on behalf of performing artists and the technicians and communicators who support musicians, composers, actors, producers, and writers.
