| 783581 | 2009-06-19 06:28:00 | Ouch, where did they get that figure from? 24 songs so a double album some total $40 on average does not make 3 mil | gary67 (56) | ||
| 783582 | 2009-06-19 06:28:00 | Kazaa? People still use that? Haha, serves her right. But $3m isn't a fair indication of loss. 24 songs = about $24-30, depending on where you buy them from. Even if someone stole 24 cars, they wouldn't get a fine that big. Sure, they'd probably get jail instead, but if jail time was converted to a fine, I'm sure it wouldn't be that big. |

| 783584 | 2009-06-19 07:43:00 | Ouch, where did they get that figure from? Here. this is how they came up with that figure: arstechnica.com It's America - they love to sue. And she knew, there has been articles earlier - she swapped her drive out to try and hide it. |

And she knew, there has been articles earlier - she swapped her drive out to try and hide it. Ah, that explains the hefty fine. She should have just admitted her wrong doing initially. |

| 783587 | 2009-06-20 01:49:00 | If the list of songs she downloaded that I've seen is to be believed than are they going to sue YouTube? As all the songs are on there :lol: |
