I'm livid* the RIAA has been able to justify damages of this level. It goes beyond ANY legal and ethical rationale.

Actually that's the sum the jury came up with. Previously, the RIAA reported they'd been willing to settle for as little $3,500.

In the end they'll prolly settle outta court for much less then the million+. It's not like the bitch has any money sitting around her trailer in Minnesota....

I'm aware it's a jury decision, they'll settle for less, and they asked for 3500 to start. However it's my understanding

-They ask for $3500 settlement from ALL cases regardless of validity. Their tactics are specious and in some cases, ridiculous. Some professors got tired of the RIAA sending false notices (they send notices en masse) and got the RIAA to send a notice to a printer.

-A jury makes its decisions based on estimates given by the aggrieved party. If the number is unjustifiable, the court should step in.

I know downloaders are stealing and the industry has to protect itself. Nothing justifies the RIAA's tactics or requests. It's a dying industry grasping at straws. A CD costs $10-18. A song costs $0.99.

Ok, so if you know/understand that, then you should also get that this is blowing back on them. Perhaps they jumped initially at this settlement, , but I think in the long term they'll distance themselves and still lowball on a case-by-case.

I totally agree that the judge should have tossed the ruling. I like the general idea of Americans being righted to take part of due process. But fuck if some aren't just too stupid to be on a jury. OJ?

RIAA is (long-term) inconsequential as we shift media, like you hint at.. Back seat drivers.

Its simply trying to scare college aged kids with no money out of illegally downloading money. They make these stupid people who did not know what they were doing poster models in there crusade in the impossible.

Anyone remotely internet savvy should know how to not get caught. Dont download from anything peer to peer where your ip is readily available to anyone who wants it.

I want to buy a camera. I've never owned a camera in my life. Any suggestions on a nice camera that won't cost me too pretty a nickel?

I also want to change my username =/

An eighth of kush or diesel wouldn't hurt either.

And finally. Fuck premed classes.

You're pretty lucky to be getting severance pay for a job like that, with only 10 months there.
