Re: Why stop at 1.5 million

Seriously, why stop there? 1.5 Million dollars is already an absurd sum that is far beyond the damage of the initial 'crime'.

They might as well pursue 100 million while they are at it.
This just makes a forced settlement of $5,000-10,000 look reasonable. LOL. There is an evil purpose to this.

Re: Why stop at 1.5 million

It's really quite simple.

The **AAs are defending their clients against millions of thieves. Doing anything less would be fiscally irresponsible at the very least.

Let the games begin.

Simple indeed.

It's really quite simple.

The **AAs are making sure that their clients customers will never do business with them again. Doing anything less might have a ring of sanity to it.

I'll agree to that. Piracy will always be there, and threatening to extort folks for 1 bajillion dollars isn't going to stop that anyday soon. If anything, it makes paying customers like me wonder why I should be doing business with such a company in the first place.
