A replay of the nation's only file-sharing case to go to trial ended the same as the first, with a Minnesota woman Jammie Thomas-Rasset found to have violated music copyrights and ordered to pay hefty damages to the recording industry. A federal jury ruled Thursday that Jammie Thomas-Rasset willfully violated the copyrights on 24 songs, and awarded recording companies $1.92 million, or $80,000 per song.
The lawyer who appeared at the Jammie Thomas-Rasset trial as a witness for Sony now says that he was "shocked" by the size of the $1.92 million verdict.

That's just ridiculous for me. Guys you missed the shift towards digital and now you are trying to sue people to make sure they are afraid of downloading. Make them aware but work on new technology to prevent illegal downloads or come up with new ways.
