ZitZot: Single mother loses against RIAA, has to pay $2.4m

A US jury has ordered a 32-year-old woman to pay $US1.92 million ($A2.4 million) in damages for illegally downloading 24 songs in a high-profile digital piracy case.

Jammie Thomas-Rasset, a single mother of four from the US state of Minnesota, was found liable for using the Kazaa peer-to-peer file-sharing network to download the songs over the internet.

    I think this needs to go prime time on tv. The world needs to see corporate power over law, twisting and manipulating everything to their liking. I wonder how much the jugdge got paid under the table…i mean lobby'ed. This must get on tv, as the RIAA needs a final nail in their coffin. I am so glad there are millions of pirateers out there. I feel safer with them around!

    Its obvious that the RIAA wont get a penny out of this, just file personal bankruptcy. Easy peasy.

    well,if they can't beat the bigger guys, they go after the small fish, what a poor bunch of people the RIAA! Their own sons and daughters probably download more than 24 songs dayly! Even so, 2 mill for a mere 24 songs is just wrong. If you're gonna fine someone, be realistic, and don't try to retrieve the money that was wasted by useless actions over a single person that you know you can't pay it anyways…

    As I said…poor bunch the RIAA… SO much for the freedom in America…

    @ 100

    clearly you think with your heart and not with your brain like all your peers. here is the composition of the supreme court:
    John G. Roberts – appointed by Junior Bush
    John Paul Stevens – appointed by Ford (seems like his been there for centuries)
    Antonin Scalia – appointed by Reagan
    Anthony Kennedy – appointed by Reagan
    David Souter – appointed by Senior Bush
    Clarence Thomas – appointed by Senior Bush
    Samuel Alito – appointed by Junior Bush

    This is a lesson for all republicans look at the facts, something that is evidentiary, don't act on feelings otherwise you might end up invading a country for no reason at all.
    in terms of who is responsible again look at the facts

    it seems odd that if iraq were invaded for no reason then why is it that more then 75% of iraqis are pleased that the US did come in and liberate them? i mean sadam heussein was killing hundreds of thousands of his own people. but you are probably one of the liberals that believes the holocaust never happened as well. all you you believe is that all war is bad. war is necessary. you also probably believe that every american that has died for your freedom is guilty of war crimes.

    @113 If what you are saying is true then why a reporter is feeling the urge to hurl shoes at Bush? Why is he being regarded as a hero for hurling shoes at Bush by his fellow countrymen? Why there is a draconian censorship in effect in Iraqi media? BTW, where is that WMD which Saddam was supposedly hiding under his bed?

    The US is responsible for making millions of widows and orphans ALL OVER THE WORLD and mark my words, such diabolically evil act will NOT get unpunished. A very befitting future awaits for US citizens. Each of you will burn in hell.

    @117? And guess who forced this crap onto the people? LIberal Press like ABC/NBC/CBS/CNN/MSNBC/NY Times/PBS/LA Times as a study was done after the elections and printed in USA Today. OVER 98% of the stories done on Obama were positive. Less then 15% done on Bush were positive. With this being drummed into you every freakin day, care to guess why he was elected?

    @103? And you are full of it, this crap started during the CLINTON Administration.Check the Library of Congress for facts, not something written by know nothings.
    ——————-
    @110? you are right, liberals SHOULD look at the facts…BUT Stevens-Kennedy-Souter-Ginsberg are ALL die hard liberals with Alito voting with them almost as much as he votes against them. And unless you failed math nimrod, these nice little liberals with Alito voted to make the RIAA's cause Constitutional! So whine all you want you flaiming liberal, it was YOUR arse buddies in the Congress that got this passed and protected by the USSC. That is the facts binky and the USSC archives as well as the Library of Congress prove EXACTLY what I said, that the LEFT started this RIAA BS. So if you are left wing, look in the mirror and say thanks for the crap you started.

    The RIAA and MPAA just want to scare you!
    By creating lots of fear, for your submission!

    Stand up and fight back, or live with their control over your lives… Why should sharing your culture be made into a crime?
