It's a small enough number that it doesn't make economic sense to hire an attorney to litigate these," Ballard said.

Isn't the American legal system grate. No, we don’t need solid evidence. Plea guilty or will drive you to bankruptcy.

ugh. These lawsuits should NOT HAVE ANY MERIT IN A COURT OF LAW! the RIAA are doing things that are very illegal themselves. This shows how easily the American Justice system can be bought. GOD DAMNIT!

I wonder what happens to all the $$$ these dickheads collect?
Do you think the artists whos material was collected get a cut?

With 62 million people in america sharing, not to mention people from all over the world they cant stop P2P file sharing. Its only going to get easier to do.

It would be better to charge all people a $ 1.00 on each internet bill pr. month and share that with the artests.

Heh, that prolly doesn't even cover the lawyer's fees.

Laywers cost for those kind of things around $10,000 or more. Depending on how good they are.
