thats great, but I'm sure the lawyers took $75k of that money..
The lawyers got ALL of the money. She didn't win a lawsuit. The judge awarded her lawyers their costs in defending her against the RIAA lawsuit.

An Oregon federal magistrate has awarded nearly $108,000 to a Beaverton single mother who said the recording industry falsely accused her of illegally downloading music.

The money represents Tanya Andersen's attorney fees and costs in successfully fighting a lawsuit filed by the recording industry against her.

The attorney fee award is separate from a national class action lawsuit Andersen filed against the recording industry last year.

I was just correcting the implication in the BBR summary that SHE got the money in a lawsuit she won. Which clearly wasn't the case.

And I am retired and don't work at all - except on my golf game.
