The twelve year old girl sued earlier this week for file trading by the RIAA, will have her $2,000 settlement paid for by a coalition of file trading companies. The honor roll student, who shared such files as "If You're Happy and You Know It" on her PC, was one of 261 users facing lawsuits from the RIAA. P2P United, a lobbying group which has many file trading companies as members, has announced they'll be paying the settlement. "We don't condone copyright infringement, but it's time for the RIAA's winged monkeys to fly back to the castle and leave the Munchkins alone," says Adam Eisgrau, executive director of P2P United.
