This is the same girl everyone's been talking about. She was sued, settled for $2000, which P2P United gave back to her. And she downloaded a lot more than nursery rhymes.

The high figure is the max the RIAA can sue for under the law, $150,000.

i read about this in the paper. they said her mum paid a subsctiption as well! they thought they were acting within the law , remember the girl was only 12, when the industry decided to make an example of them.

i think its outrageous

They read my post :-)

The problem is so acute in America, which has seen sales of CDs fall by 15 per cent in two years, that Universal Music, the company behind Eminem and Elton John, is reducing CD prices by up to £4.

But 4 pounds is about 8 where I am, sooo still waiting for it to go below 5 dollars :-)
