Now here is quite the unforunate story — Apparantly, a woman by the name of Jammie Thomas was found guilty back in 2007 for sharing 24 songs over Kazaa and was then ordered to pay $222,000.
Well, the woman was put on trial yet again this year at a Minnesota court and was again found guilty but this time ordered to pay an astounding $1,920,000 in damages. Thats a full $80,000 per song!
To stand unbiased on the situation, Mrs. Thomas was issued a cease-and-desist letter by the RIAA, which she refused to do. So remember boys and girls, crime never pays, even if it involves the non-violent act of downloading a couple songs.
