Re: A good compromise - she pays $18,000 Sure seems that way. We have to endure the justice of the American courts that can send a person to prison for smoking some dope for 20 years, let child molesters and rapists go with a reduced sentence for "good behaviour" bankrupt Joe Public then bail out Financial institutions that fleeced Americans. There is no money to be made in criminal acts but civil acts can generate money for lawyers and the plaintiffs (if they win) This is all a deep pockets venture and the RIAA is out to dig into anyone's pocketbook as deep as they can with the help of the "courts" and some good(if not too ethical) civil lawyers. The lawyers get paid, the RIAA gets a lot of money the judge gets his/her salary paid. Everyone wins except the loser. There is a level of justice that money can buy in America, just ask RIAA. God help the poor man because without money justice and the courts turn a blind eye and a deaf ear. Over generalizing maybe; opinion definitely.
No downloaded song is worth the kind of money per song being talked about here. America, where you are guilty until you have enough money spent to prove you are innocent. |

Re: A good compromise - she pays $18,000 Such bs as riaa is easy enough to stop, it just takes getting people involved, no matter what they law says, the law is decided by the jury, if riaa comes to your town get on the jury, or get a friend on the jury.
I haven't heard of any riaa cases in my area, if i do i will do my part to see they lose, if enough people get involved in their own towns the riaa will just fade away.
the riaa simply can't afford to lose each and every case, but we as the people, eg jury can make them lose each and every time.
I look forward to seeing the riaa come to my town, and losing. I will jump at the chance to get on the jury.

LOL sure I will be seated, no doubt in my mind, I will tell the attorney anything he wants to hear, just to get put on the jury. The jury is true power and is proof one person can make a difference.
I been on a jury before, they are easy enough to get on most people just want to get out of jury duty, don't want to be bothered not thinking that they could in fact make a difference.
If one doesn't believe the law or punishment is just get on a jury and fix stuff. This women would have paid no more than $24 period, had i been on the jury, i would have pushed for nothing, but would have gave in after hours and hours of deliberation, for $24
Not one dime more or i would have just hung the jury, end of story, people simply use your head get out there get on these jurors and end this bs million dollars for 24 songs bs.
the only reason this woman was charged so much is because riaa supports got on the jury, rather than be to busy, they found the time, all we have to do is fight back get on the jury, we only need one folks on the jury.
If you believe the riaa and or the verdict in this case was to much fight back be on the next jury in your town against the riaa.

kudos:4 | LOL. You have it all figured out don't you? It's that easy.
Look, you have no clue how the selection process works, you have no idea what the attorney wants to hear and you have no idea what he's after.
A civil case doesn't have to be unanimous. You don't have the power by yourself to create a hung jury in the least bit.
You know, I can't even respond to all the rest of your points. I'm just laughing too hard at what I'm reading.
One final thought though. You having been on a jury before, therefore making you an expert in these matters is about the same thing as me saying that I've sat on a toilet before, which makes me a master plumber. |
