When I read this there's a couple of things that came to my mind. This poor woman claims her kids downloaded and shared these songs, 24 to be exact, about the number of songs on 2 long play CDs or 3 at most.
The things I thought of are:
1. What the F*ck is wrong with the people of Minneapolis who sat on this jury. I've never been much of a fan of the liberal politics of the Twin Cities, nor as an Iowan, the arrogance of superiority that they have with Iowans but I'm shocked the idiots on this jury would ever think of giving an award this large. It's like the made it up. Yea, it's completely realistic that this single mom of 4 can pay this. They've basically thrown these kids on the streets or at least into a life of poverty. These people get my vote for idiots of the year.
2. I understand the idea behind digital property rights but do these spoiled, out of touch, irresponsible recording artists really need this $ that bad? Do they need to drain every penny this poor mom has so they can buy another Bentley or a $5000 purse? The spoiled ass rotten, lightly talented performers of today personify a huge problem with Hollywood, they are so out of touch, that have no idea what real people have to deal with in daily real life. I'm sick of it.
Minneapolis Jury awards recording industry $1.9M in damages from a single mom of 4!
